I don't see why MGS4 can't be on the 360...

Port the engine onto the 360, split it into 5 DVDs, and let us install the game onto the hard drive. I'm not seeing the hardware limitation. 360 GPU > PS3 GPU. 360 tri - core (2 treads per core) CPU is basically equal to PS3's 1 core 7 thread CPU. Why the sony loyalty? MGS2 came out for Xbox....citizen-zero

Hell, why do we even have exclusives nowadays??:roll:

yea it can be done, maybe not 5 disks though, 3 at most the graphics look the same as 360 games, even killzone 2 could be done on a 360

Hideo doesn't want it on there. It's that plain and simple. Judging by his statements, he's very loyal when it comes to MGS4 staying on the PS3.

But man...that game is a piece of work. I finally understand the praise it gets. The cutscenes aren't THAT long. They're cut in quarter sequences between gameplay, which makes you think they aren't that long. I'm playing on a hard difficulty and I appreciate those awesome cutscenes(I need brakes between the gameplay :(). I'm on Act 2 right now and it's good so far.

Cows...it deserves the 10 in my book as of now. You guys were right :P

I think this owns Gears of War :) I think it pwns Halo 3's SP campaign too.

While I don't think for a second it can't be done on the 360 due to technical reasons, I don't see it ever happening due to the pervasive Sony and Apple product placement (Otacon's laptop, Snake's iPod, The DualShock 3 used to control the Metal Gear Mark II, etc.) seen throughout the game.

EDIT: I couldn't care less though at this point. I've already bought it, played it, finished it and moved on to other things on my PS3.

LOL @ 5 discs. Thats crazy. Would it take that much. IIJuggaNottII

And if it did, the cost for all those diss would drastically hurt profits (I'm going off of Carmacks complaints about cost per disc). I don't see why it isn't possible though, but from what I've read from people that know the game, there's a lot of Sony references so they'd either have to change it, or MS would have to be cool with it. Not sure what else could be a problem.

Plus side: With the ability to write games to HD, that would make a huge difference and would negate the whole switching discs bs.

Weren't you one of the people who kept calling it Movie Gear Solid 4?

How's that crow tasting?

"i dont see why MGS4 cant be on the 360"

simple answer- because kojima said so.

Lol, but really kojima hated games on more then 1 disc he said that and that was something he hated about mgs1 and something made fun of in mgs4...he wont port it to 360 if it was only 2 discs and certainly not anymore then that...

some games were meant to be played on some systems

The_Game21x

Exactly what I was going say. The apple laptops, the ipod, the PS3 controller not to mention a little joke Otacon said that can ONLY be on the PS3 for a reason. With compression it probably could be done on a 360 but, those little details Kojima put in makes it virtually it impossible to be going on any other system.Basically, it can be done but, it won't be.

You kinda answered yourself.

Too many discs and not everyone owns a HDD.

Haha, yes I was. But it was because I was jealous at the time :oops:

I take everything back though. It is a game I can't turn away from. The graphics are amazing, and I see that the cutscenes aren't as long to the point I'd get bored of them because of the way they placed them between gameplay sequences. It's pretty cool :)

I know it's hard to comprehend, but bare with me, Kojima doesn't it want it to. :shock:

At the end of the day, despite all the spec threads Lems make it'll remain the same.

We all know that mgs4 is going to be on the 360 eventually C4_yourself

How do we all know this? I'm dying to hear this.

The fact that you even bashed it saddens me.

Not really. The 1st install took some time true, but the ones after were just a bit longer than it would take to get up cwitch discs and sit down. They are pretty quick. Also 360 pacage idea for multiple discs is sad.

Ah, well...that was before I even thought of buying a PS3. I played the previous MGS games but wasn't THAT attached to the series but I knew what it was about and everything but wasn't...you know.

At the time, I didn't really mean what I said. I just said it out of jealousy :P. I knew it looked good from the start and all. But yeah...I'm ashamed as well. But at least I considered playing it and didn't actually believe what I said about it :)

fredyfish

Oh noes. Not another one of these topics...:roll: Get over it and buy a PS3 and MGS4 already!

Hey, Crysis is possible on the PS3!

it can be done. it would take serious optimization and reworking FOR it to be done. and that won't happen for a while, if it ever does.mistervengeance

Port the engine onto the 360, split it into 5 DVDs, and let us install the game onto the hard drive.

i think your right there isnt any reason why it cant be on the 360 but i still like to make the point that the cpu in the ps3 is 2 and a half times stronger then the 360 this is a common known fact. graphics about the same same as the amount of ram but cpu...you dont want to go down that path becuase ps3 fans will own you

Ohh... thats good, so they pay 5 times more money for disks per game while charging the same? lol it's never happening I am afraid.

no one said it's impossible..(though I do think it would be quite annoying to have 5 discs while ps3 owners have 1...) anyway it's not being ported becuase kojima wanted it to be a ps3 exclusive to thank sony for letting him put the first mgs game on thier ps1 (he thinks the series success is thanks to sony and wanted to thank them)...it's nothing but loyalty

cause it just isn't a game for the 360. I own a 360 and also a fan of the MGS series...can never picture those color A, B, X, Y buttons coming up on screen during the tutorials...LOL

Not to bash the 360, but I can never feel the control of Solid Snake with that 360 controller
