Don't forget that the PS2 and PS3 have a much, much, MUCH larger consumer base in Japan than both the Xbox consoles, so it's only natural that Kojima would want to produce his game with the PS3 in mind. This is why they probably won't consider porting it, as there's less than 1mil 360 owners in Japan. That's why the west have a 360 port of FFXIII and not Japan.
I'm saying this as someone who loves both consoles, so don't attack me.
reason 1 why it will NEVER go on the 360:it used up the whole you'll need about 7 dvd roms.#2:it uses sixaxis compatibility last time i checked 360 doesnt have that.#3:it took ps3's power to the next lvl so the 360 wont be able to handle it.
People who think MGS4 can simply be ported over to 360 probably haven't played the content of the game.
Things like an ipod are in it with integral podcasts still being done for it. You think Microsoft wants to help promote its competition for the Zune?
It also promotes the PS1 in a part of it with a certain boss fight and refers to memory cards and says how Snake's hardware improved to a PS3. Even Otacon mentions PS3 in game.
you do know that metal gear solid games have been on the first xbox and gamecube? both of which had characters mention the hardware the game was running on.
i have a ps3 and mgs4, it's a great game, but there is no reason why it couldn't be ported. the only factor is disc space, so it would either end up on two discs or better compressed.
either way, it won't have 2 minute installing times between chapters because the 360 can read dvd discs faster than the ps3 can read blurays
Haha compressed... Are you just a 360 fan, i dont know why people comment like you, dont reply back please you just can ok, its illegal and erm, pointless because you'll own your self when Otacon says Swap the disk , Haha
lol you know what would be funny lol. i know that they are not making metal gear solid 4 for the xbox 360, but what if they did, and that part where otacon says swap the disc, and he says o were on ps3. on xbox 360 you would really have to swap the disc.
So I own a PS3 with MGS4, and that makes me a 360 fanboy.
Factually flawed? I made a prediction on the future, so I haven't stated any facts.
A fanboy is someone who aggressively defends his consumer habits. Since you're the one throwing names around because of corporate favourtism, doesn't that make you the only fanboy here?
I don't think that it's going over to Xbox 360, but I hate the Xbox 360 for that reason, I have an Xbox 360 too, I just know that there are numerous factors which explain why MGS4 will most likely stay on PS3.
Why? All it would require is a disc change, which would be faster than the 2 minute installation times between chapters on the PS3. Obviously graphics would suffer slightly too.
Sony aren't doing very well. They make a loss on every PS3 machine they sell, and they had to cut their workforce by 5% in December (that's 8000 employees). If there is profit to be made, Konami would probably pursue this avenue.
I own a PS3 before anymore raging PS fanboys start on me again.
When I said I hate the Xbox 360 I meant don't hate it, I'm no fanboy,those fanboys are just losers with too much time,no offence, but it's truth. I'm just trying to be a realist here, I own an Xbox 360, and obviously Halo 3 and GOW2 do somewhat better than MGS4 at the present time, I will admit that Substance was an exception as that came out for Xbox, but think of it this way, Microsoft would have to negotiate a big contract for it to work. Do you think Microsoft really would negotiate like so?
Exclusivity on a game usually only lasts for a certain amount of time, so it's therefore at Konami's discretion whether they port the game, not so much an issue for Microsoft.
Exclusivity ran out of MGS2, at which point Konami released it to Xbox because it was econimically viable. Today, with the PS3 not doing so well in comparison to the other consoles, it's even more economically viable for them to port it.
ye , keep dreaming , MGS4 has flashbacks , most of those ... i mean ALL of those flashbacks are in Playstation except for the Metal Gear Games ( MG , NOT MGS)
a blu ray holds around 32gb of space, a dual layer DVD9 holds 14gb. so not quite 6 discs.
it would be a maximum of 3 if they ever did feel like releasing it for 360.
a game can have content removed, or have higher compression on textures, or audio files, or generally any asset that it uses, to bring down the overall file size.
i agree, thats what i'm saying. at least this one is real, the other dudes putting up so called "tv ads" are just making shitty fan edits usually with shitty music. i'm just glad this dude put the real one up, even if it was done with a camera recording the tv.
Anyone remember when people would just play a game and not let something so trivial as graphics ruin the experience for them?

Even if it does come to the 360, it will have worst graphics because the PS3 has more tech inside, and updates everymonth, the firmwire for example

360 gets updated regularly also, as do all console systems that can be taken online, in case you didn't know.

If it was ever going to be ported to the 360, it will need 6 disks. One for each act and one for MGO.

a blu ray holds around 32gb of space, a dual layer DVD9 holds 14gb. so not quite 6 discs.

but what do i care, i've got both machines.

Actually, a bluray holds up to 50GB of space. I must also add that MGS4 was designed for use with the PS3's Cell Processor.
