I am not trying to be negative or anything but konami needs to cut the bull and say maybe we will have to go multplatform and just do it since everyone knows it is all about the money and they were going to do it anyway even if microsoft and sony were selling the same amount of systems. They would just look at the numbers and say oh well even more millions if the game is on both systems. This "we might have to" crap is annoying. What is worse is Kojima's talk about how he wanted to push the ps3 and so on and about his comparison of ps3 being of movie theater quality and saying they were going with that and all the other impressions we were given. How the ps3 was what they wanted and so on because it would make the experience better It makes Konami and he himself a big ass and a liar. Exclusives are what sell systems and companies can'tcomplain about not enough fan base when they don't try to bring the fanbase up for a particular system. Someone is going to have to release exclusives for ps3 to sell and if no one is willing to do so then how can anyone complain about user or fan base on a system especially ps3. If it was exclusive almost all 4 million who have ps3 would probably by it because it is exclusive and it would probably be a system seller like FF7 was for ps1. If a third party would see how they could instill a fan base then everything would work out but no one wants to take the risk. All I can say is Lair and Heavenly Sword, and Killzone better rule if Sony is to sell units.

Not to turn it into a personal whine session, but I was losing interest in games and thought maybe when the new ones come out I will get into it again. Xbox came with shooters as always and with the breakdown and I was like no. Ps3 was said to have infinity billion when it first released and that did not happen although I do like few and the up coming exclusives seem way better and innovative than anything else it is still a bit lame because it's losing all the things that made playstation great and then I thought wii's controller would be more realistic as promised but the sensing is a bit faulty and most of the games you need 4 people in order to really take full advantage of the system. I just can't stick up for games anymore and be proud and this is why I own this system and this one. I owned a GC when everyone else didn't like it and I stuck by it. I stuck by capcom with and liked x7 and x8 and almost got gradius 3 and 4 collection. I know I am only one person but I don't want to have to leave a universe I once found so engaging, but if this gaming era doesn't stop multiplats not only for the ps3's sake but for everyones It will be 5 years of crap. It hurts ps3 because it doesn't have any exclusives. It hurts wii because they get dumbed down crrap and awkward controls because they worked on the hardware giants fine tuning those instead of doing unique things with that and xbox needs more than just shooters.

Even if it does go multiplat, it won't be announced at E3. Sony is showing the new MGS4 trailer during their press confrence, and putting it on the PSstore shortly after. http://blog.us.playstation.com/2007/07/10/metal-gear-solid-trailer-coming-to-playstation-store/

There's a news story on jeux-france that Sony will clear the matter of exclusivity during their press conference, who knows, but I doubt it.

It's not just "we broaden the user base by making it multiplat", there are costs for porting the game, marketing, etc and if the 360 user base isn't really interested in MGS (which could be given the sales numbers for MGS2 on the XBox), you can't make a profit.

I think its inevitable that it will be a multiplatform game. It will be prevented only if sony drop the price of Ps3
