I made this in parallel to Ultrabeatdown's thread.

And no, I'm not talking about the rumor about it going to *that other console*, as that rumor has been repeatedly squashed by Kojima himself.

What I mean is, do you think the PS3 community as a whole would still hold MGS4 in such high regards if it wasn't the PS3's most important exclusive?

I see all these topics asking "What's the best game on PS3?" and a lot of the answers refer to MGS4.

Now I'm not hating on MGS4 or anything, it was a great game--no, amazing experience, but I just can't help but think that a lot of the people who say it's amazing say that because it's only for PS3.

If it was for both (or maybe even all three consoles), do you think we would still love it as much as we do?

it wouldnt matter if it was exclusive or not to me. ive been hooked on mgs since mgs2 (which actually made me go back and play mgs1). mp wouldnt be an issue to me. it would still be one of the greatest games ever in my book.

I wouldn't even want to discuss that. I know ALOT of people would be angry because ALOT of them bought the PS3 because of this game when they could've played it on the other console. Please don't bring such subjects over here.

People would love it, but instead of defending some flaws, they would just blame it on the 360.

I would be a sad boy. Kojima would get a very sad letter from me. :(

I hate Multi-Plat-Sclusives.

in terms of "we," i have no idea.. but we would definitely find out who the exclusivity fanboys are. in terms of "me," i would get the ps3 version, naturally.

sorry bud but we are leaving in a reality now that it's only meant to be made for ps3 only., was and ever will be. making it non-exclusive feels very awkward, uncomfortable, not right and unfaitful. to answer your ? i'd still buy it for the ps3.

I might had bought a 360 instead of a PS3 :S

Reasons being: Its cheaper and by that time i didn't know any PS3 appealing released exclusives (i didn't know about the existence of uncharted...)

I wouldn't care. As long as more people get to enjoy the game, I could care less.

I wouldn't mind it as long as the PS3 version didn't have to be dumbed down in order to get it on multiple consoles.

Lets just say I brought my next gen system FOR MGS4... so whatever system it was going to I was buying... and it just so happen to be a PS3... which was a good bonus i must say

 

so look at it as I brought MGS4 with a bonus PS3Â
