MGS4 Confirmed For The Xbox 360

I bolded the stuff that has to be read.

This is the same Magazine who last week were interviewing Kojima of Konami and Shane of 1up.com, where Shane, a personal friend of Kojima who had before done a podcast with Kojima when he learned the confirmation so he already knew about the game going to the Xbox 360, but slipped up saying "The 360 Version won't effect the PS3 Version", on about how equal the games are. That's the jist of it, because, well, I'm not Swedish.

This Magazine is also the Magazine that confirmed Virtua Fighter 5 went Platform after some inside information and then going to the Developers and such. They were also the first media entity to get Screens and Videos of Halo 3, ie, world exclusive, so I wouldn't doubt them as a Source for a bit.

So, is that enough to convince? Xbox 360 gets MGS4 6-7 Months later (PS3 version is out as early as April 2008), with alot more Gameplay and Content.

[rand0m]

"So, to us, it's crap until Kojima nods or dissents. You?"

Sums it up.

(once again Xoeset proves how much he loves beliveing rumors)

^^^ fuck you. it says Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots for the Xbox 360 will launch a year later in November 2008

-------------------
At the end of 2007, one of the biggest titles to be released for any of the current generation consoles is Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. As the follow up to the blockbuster smash hit PS2 title Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, it will problably sell extremely well and be played by many PS3 fans. However, sole owners of Wii and Xbox 360 would have to do without it. Fortunately, Konami isn?t completely blind to the fact that more gamers deserve to play this epic title, and it is now confirmed that Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots for the Xbox 360 will launch a year later in November 2008. It will come with new content additions including VR missions and other bonus gameplay like Snake Tales, which lets you go on more objective-based missions -- some quite lengthy. So, there's no question that Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots for the Xbox 360 comes packed with more content than the original PS3-version.

Oddly, this article seems very familiar…


IGN.com - March 5, 2003
-------------------------------------
At the end of 2001, one of the biggest titles to be released for any of the current generation consoles was Metal Gear Solid 2. As the follow up to the blockbuster smash hit PSX title Metal Gear Solid, it went on to sell extremely well and be played by many PS2 fans. However, sole owners of GameCube and Xbox would have to do without it. Fortunately, Konami wasn't completely blind to the fact that more gamers deserved to play the epic title, and it released Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance for the Xbox a year later in November 2002. This came with new content additions including VR missions and other bonus gameplay like Snake Tales, which lets you go on more objective-based missions -- some quite lengthy. So, there's no question that Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance comes packed with more content than the original MGS2 on PS2.


It's almost as if someone copied the article from 4 years ago, replaced MGS2 with MGS4, PS2 with PS3, and Xbox with Xbox 360.

It's bullshit rumours.

Until it's confirmed, it's PS3 exclusive.

EDIT: If even if was released on the 360, the only way it would harm the PS3 is if it was released at the same time. Releasing it 6-12 months aint gonna do anything.

Seemingly, the Xbox 360 Metal Gear would have been the one to wait for, but Konami respond by releasing the slightly beefed up Metal Gear Solid 4 for PS3 as well.

"The PS3 is like the theatre, it's a little bit high-priced but it has to be high quality as well," he explained. "The 360 is a DVD, it still needs to be high quality but you need more variations, while the Wii is almost like a TV channel, because every game you have is with your family".

Yup, that swedish rumour is fake alright, in a thread about making fake rumours and that interview sounds very much like Hideo Kojimas way of speaking.

Guess there wont be any Snake on the Xbox360.

[rand0m]

I think Xoesets boner just went limp

joke _________________________________________ but seriously

[TriggerOfDemise]

once again the blind lemming Xoeset had his thread foiled and backfired on him again. lol

[clutch-monkey]

lmao at fake thread.
does anybody really care though? i mean metal gear solid is up there with halo as most overrated game ever.

Except MGS actually is a fricking awesome game (Well, in my opinion). Yes, I played Halo... meh.

[usefulidiot316]

Who the fuck cares. It's just MGS. Let it stay on the PS3, it's not like any 360 gamer would want it anyway, after years of a MGS-Splinter Cell fued. I'm beginning to think that no one really wants to play it, and people just want it to come to their console for bragging rights either way. Let the PS3 have it, hell it's practically dying for a half way decent exclusive anyway.

I for one will not die if I can't play a game that force me to hide in a box from idiot foreigners with punctuation marks above their heads. I sure won't be sorry if whatever game I'm not wasting time with a game that doesn't give me decorative headgear that supplies infinite ammo. I sure will feel better playing a game without seeing Raiden nude and spread full eagle.

Quit making these threads! Fuck MGS4! Let's see more threads about GTA IV, Unreal Tournament 3, and Medal of Honor, which, BTW, WILL be on the 360, and rightfully so. Some people actually look forward to those games.

[Al Paccioli]

They want it sooo bad.

[silverspade14]

They want it sooo bad.

Most people I know with a 360 could care less about MGS4. I know I dont care.

[usefulidiot316]

They want it sooo bad.

Who exactly are they? The only person I've ever known that ever played a MGS game was a casual game player that talked me into buying MGS2. I played it, beat it once, and gave it away. Maybe it's just my hatred for Japanese games(couldn't even get through Lost Planet), but honestly, I'm rooting for the PS3 keeping this game. Seems that system gets all the games(exclusively) I don't want, anyway. That's probably the biggest reason(among others...) that I won't buy a PS3.

Fixed it for you.

[usefulidiot316]

Fixed it for you.

I think you completely missed the point. It's obvious those games will be on the PS3 also, any idiot could look up that info. I was saying that they're going to be on the 360, rather than just a rumor...
You know what? Why the hell am I even trying to explain. All I'm trying to say is PS3 can keep MGS4, hell they probably need it. All you guys are hearing is SONY SONY SONY!

Well, that just proves my point, first of all. Second, what's this "we" jazz? Do you work for Sony now? Then again, you are, of course, the video game expert. What is it you do again? Work at a LAN gaming center? A place where casual gamers come in to play the console they were force-fed to believe is superior because of the Almighty Cell. You come in spitting out info lacking logic and anything to back it up... Then again, maybe you do work for Sony.

Of course, I must love MGS4. I say I hate it, therefore, I must want it so badly. Of course, following that logic, you also love the Xbox360. Xeoset must love the PS3, and rand0m must love Halo.:p

Anyway, let's get this back on topic. I really don't think any of the Xbox360 fans want to play MGS4, they just want to get it from being a bragging right on the PS3.

You're making it soo obvious how much you want it!! But you cant have it!!!

♪Haha, hahaha, hahahahahaaha, haha, hahahahahahaha!♪get that I'm just joking...

[zigamabob]

....I would want MGS4..but..it takes more than one game for me to buy a PS3...again. And since FFXII was the suck, and GTA is comming out at the same time for xbox..I have lost almost every reason to own a PS3. Oh and Forza2 comming out tomorrow!! I will most likely disapear from this thread for several days, and most likely not be missed.

For some reason I think of the Pussycat Doll's song.

[Cee]

Most people I know with a 360 could care less about MGS4. I know I dont care.

Trust me, if it were official you'd see a lot of people jumping for joy.

[CSPope]

thanks,

That is possibly the stupidest comparison I have ever read.


I really hate the MGS games and I don't have a 360 or PS3 so it doesn't bother me.

I have to choose between the two in October but I won't have a hard time b/c I'll learn enough of what I need to know by then.

Do you even have a PS3?

[MooCowzRock]

Do you even have a PS3?

lol...personally, I dont have any of the next-gen systems, or a gaming PC. But I am able to play all of them for free at my job. Right now, I'm between Guitar Hero 2, the Halo 3 Beta, and Battlefield 2142.

[Frosty]

Best thing about this thread?

Xeoset getting extremely and utterly OWNED.

[Wu-tang]

lol you can't really blame Xeoset for falling for the fake rumor or making the threa. Still funny though.

[Macro]

Best thing about this thread?

Xeoset getting extremely and utterly OWNED.

Best thing is he hasn't replied since his first post.

Usually he tends to feud with rand0m..

[xeoset]

So, is that enough to convince?

From my original post. Nice to see people managed to debunk it, it's not like I said "ZOMG, ITZ ConfIRMED BY KOJIMA!!1". I went and explained the scenario, how it was believable, why they are decent enough source to believe it, etc.

Why I didn't reply earlier? Because I was outside. That little place past all of your bedroom doors, you know, that place you look outside of your window but never do it. :rollseyes

Also, its nice to see some of the PS3 fans coming out and giving a backed argument, you hardly see that around, but damn, there's a shitload of PS3 Fanboys in this Thread alone.

[Dane]

Well, MGS4 is for me basicly the game that decides which of the consoles Ill buy and I hope that I can stick to PS3 since I would hate getting used to a new controller.

[rand0m]

Ok girls, bitching aside. I'm trying to put together a complete list of each consoles exclusives in the 'Console war thread', instead of bitching here you could head over there and help add/correct the list I've got running.

Boy, this thread backfired!

I think you should change the title, Xeoset. It is misleading for someone skimming the topics.

This thread makes me want to kill people.
