I thought calling something "speculation" WAS a denial. Basically, people are just guessing and making up crap.

They have come out and stated it Kojima himself has stated on his Blog cast that it's only PS3 but for some reason most seem to doubt him including you it seems.

I don't know why you people keep talking about it exclusive or not sites keep making rumors about it, As far as I know Kojima doesn't like mutiplatform his games, MGS2 substance was Konami decision and the game flopped.

Bs: Even if it is not exclusive and comes out a year later which will probably 2009,it won't effect the ps3 sales unless the come out this E3 and announce a port which I doubt.

I wonder how many times will Konami have to repeat the same thing.

Why can't some people just accept the fact that this game might be PS3 exclusive? I don't see PS3 fans crying for Gears of War, Halo 3 or Mass Effect.

What about that story saying that the game has reached a 40 GB space??? wouldn't that confirm the PS3 exclusivity, because of the Blu Ray??

 

Or that just another Story?

It would be hard.  Might end up coming out on 5 dvds or something if it was for the 360.  Since some of the same data would need to appear on each disk.  But hey Blue Dragon is 3 dvds.  So if konami really wanted to do it they could find a way.

 I see your point and in a way i agree but you are forgetting one thing. Mass Effect and Gears Of War are third party but both games are published by Microsoft which makes them 100% sure to be 360 exclusive, and Halo3 is first party game so hell will freeze before we see it on PS3. While MGS4 is not published by Sony, neither it is financed by Sony in any way that is why there are so many rumors about it and not about those 3 titles you mentioned.

I personally think MGS4 is timed exclusive and that Kojima is not going to work on port for 360. Someone else will do it and "port" will suck big time. PS3 will get "elite" version of game, 360 will get left overs.

I know most of them don't even care about the game, they just want to claim ownage. Sad thing that is.

You guys worry too much about this MGS4 exclusive. There're too many topics about this MGS4 exclusive. As someone said it before. If it go multi platform, the PS3 will be the Superior version and the 360 will be the inferior version not to mention the time exclusive and the amount of disc the 360 will have. I'm pretty sure it will be PS3 exclusive and the 360 talk are just rumors unless it doesn't sell well for the PS3. The 360 may be winning the console war right now but in about 2 years the PS3 will pull away when there are more games and the price drop.

MGS4 is still PS3 exclusive until Kojima says something the other way around. No official Kojima announcement, MGS4 still a permanent exclusive.

Xbots only want MGS4 to claim ownage and brag about how "superior" 360 is. Heck!! Most of Xbox owners don't like MGS4 type of game!!

MGS4 stays PS3 exclusive because Kojima said he would rather make a exclusive for 360 than spend time porting MGS4 to 360.

Yeah, the fanboys don't even have an interest in it, they just want it for the 360 so PS3 loses it's biggest exclusive.

Actually PS3 fans spent months hating on Gears of War and Halo 3 after Resistance released. I will agree with you on the 360 fanboys mostly wanting MGS4 for ownage though. For me the big game is going to be FF13 and Versus. I don't even really like MGS but I doubt it is going to be ported to 360.

i really doubt this game will end up on 360 1. cause the size of the game by the time it comes out will be more than standard dvds can handle and mulity dics games are a thing of the past. 2 i really dont think 360 is the game atmosphere that this game is for. the ps3 is all about these games like FF . think about the ps2 history

i've seen ps3 fans cry over this one, as sad as that sounds... anyways, i dont think kojima would publically announce that mgs4 wouldnt go to the other system because that would upset a bunch of people... he just knows it in his head that it wont ever touch the other side. =P

Do you people really think that Konami will ask for permission from Kojima if they can port or not? It is obvious that Kojima does not wish for MGS4 to go multi platform  but Konami wants more money and MGS4 will most likely be timed exclusive. i personally don't want this to happened but.......

This is getting stupid.  Kojima has stated several times that the game will Ps3 exclusive why can't people, especially 360 fanboys accept this.  and for future reference, kojima is a hugely large designer, and what he wants he usually will get, konami is not going to upset their star designer.  Another thing, the game cannot fit on  360 disks.  It would take at least 5 360 disks to play the game and nobody wants to play a game like mgs 4 like that.

MGS4 will stay PS3 exclusive in my opinion. MGS4 will sell millions thats a guarantee, it will also move alot of PS3 consoles. heck I'm getting a PS3 because of MGS4.

Like Kojima said MGS4 is aimed at the PS3

If they released MGS4 on the 360 nobody would buy it. Why? Because the fanbase is on the PS3 not 360. Its like Ridge Racer 6. Who bought that game anyways.

The 360 has plenty of good titles, that are either currently available or will be in the future, 360 owners should be satisfied enough with that. Than to want one of the PS3's major titles. Afterall, Sony deserves to have exclusive titles, just like Nintendo, and Microsoft do.

Just out of curiousity, do we not want the other side to get MGS4 because:

a) we want people to buy a PS3 for this game;

b) we take it as a sign of Sony's failure;

c) we just don't want fanboys rubbing this is our face

While MGS4 is not published by Sony, neither it is financed by Sony in any way that is why there are so many rumors about it and not about those 3 titles you mentioned.Vojkan80001

While not being directly financed by Sony, remember that Sony pictures IS picking up production and distribution (via Columbia) duties on the MGS movie. I'm sure that might help keep it on the PS3. Remember, just because a movie based on a big-name game COULD come out, doesn't mean anyone will help pay for it. Cough*Halo Movie*Cough

The thing here is that MGS 4 was supposed to be released this year, or to the maximum, at march 2008, which is not that far. You have more than 10 mill 360 sold, and over a bit than 2 mill PS3s. How much PS3s will be sold for MGS 4 to make a profit. Also note than not all PS owners buy MGS4. Halo 2 sold a bit over 7 mill units, and there are 25 million xbox units. That means 30% of xbox owners have Halo, which is THE SAVIOR AND THE MOST FAMOUS GAME of xbox If there were no halo, i am pretty sure there wouldn't be a 360 now. Same here. MGS 2 sold for the PS2 5 million units, and there are 100 million PS2 oweners. That is 5 % of the PS2 owners have an MGS game. And MGS isn't the best selling game on the PS2. How much do you think will MGS 4 sell when it is released? I don't think it will sell 1 million copies to the end of the year 2008. That is a BIG BLOW for Konami, especially for a very highly anticipated game. And highly budgeted too. So the reason the game MIGHT, and I repeat, MIGHT, be released on the 360 is to boost sales of the game which it most definitely will. The game might require 40 GB, but you can put them is several DVDs if the game is on 360. Or the game will be first released on the PS3, and then on the 360, between a year or two from its PS3 release.

the multiple disc thing would probably not appeal to anyone. and the fact that there are almost no MGS fans on the 360 fanbase they are on the playstation brand so even if it does come out it would have so many disadvantages it woulndt een be appealing.

  1. multiple disc
  2. low MGS fanbase on the 360's part
  3. why wait for a stripped down version of a EXTREMALY hyped game when u can ge4tt it for the ps3

How much do you think will MGS 4 sell when it is released? I don't think it will sell 1 million copies to the end of the year 2008. That is a BIG BLOW for Konami, especially for a very highly anticipated game. And highly budgeted too. So the reason the game MIGHT, and I repeat, MIGHT, be released on the 360 is to boost sales of the game which it most definitely will. The game might require 40 GB, but you can put them is several DVDs if the game is on 360. Or the game will be first released on the PS3, and then on the 360, between a year or two from its PS3 release.coolasj19

 

the multiple disc thing would probably not appeal to anyone. and the fact that there are almost no MGS fans on the 360 fanbase they are on the playstation brand so even if it does come out it would have so many disadvantages it woulndt een be appealing.

  1. multiple disc
  2. low MGS fanbase on the 360's part
  3. why wait for a stripped down version of a EXTREMALY hyped game when u can ge4tt it for the ps3

your forgetting that not everybody who is a fan of the MGS series brought an PS3 and might have a 360. thats why most people want it on the 360..so they dont have to pay 600+ dollars to buy a ps3 just for that one game.

[QUOTE="coolasj19"]

[QUOTE="_JPH_"]The thing here is that MGS 4 was supposed to be released this year, or to the maximum, at march 2008, which is not that far. You have more than 10 mill 360 sold, and over a bit than 2 mill PS3s. How much PS3s will be sold for MGS 4 to make a profit. Also note than not all PS owners buy MGS4. Halo 2 sold a bit over 7 mill units, and there are 25 million xbox units. That means 30% of xbox owners have Halo, which is THE SAVIOR AND THE MOST FAMOUS GAME of xbox If there were no halo, i am pretty sure there wouldn't be a 360 now. Same here.

 that's true. I am a big metal gear fan and i dont have a PS3, nor I intend to buy one since it doesn't have good games for now. I am very happy with my 360 and I am enjoying all kind of good games with it. If MGS 4 is released on the 360, I bet it will sell more on the 360 than the PS3. Even if the game is multi DVDs, you are still paying the same price. So what does it matter?

MGS4 is still PS3 exclusive until Kojima says something the other way around. No official Kojima announcement, MGS4 still a permanent exclusive.

Xbots only want MGS4 to claim ownage and brag about how "superior" 360 is. Heck!! Most of Xbox owners don't like MGS4 type of game!!

i own a 360 and i love mgs

Definitely not. Buy a console for 1 game? MGS 4 is not worth 660$. (Console + Game). But my friend has a PS3 and I go play it at his place, if he paid for it.

bonzi he said xbots so you likeing mgs shows your not one because the are 14 year olds who would not understand anything going on. but i was 8 when i played MGS 11 for MGS2. so yea mgs fans=100% opposite xbots they dont like story and cant understand wile we like story(billion cutscenes+codecs) very complex story.

People are still talking about this? God forbid if PS3 gets a great exclusive. The way the 360 fanboys are talking, it seems they don't have anything good to play on their system. Oh well tough luck.
