Just a thought.

If it did go over, it'd probably be a pretty bad port.

I would have agreed if you said uncharted but since you said MGS4, I disagree, 360 doesnt even need a GPU to run an ugly game called MGS4

You're a developer with a high enough pedigree to be able to make such an estimate right?

I can agree with you if you just said it has some bad textures, but calling MGSIV ugly is not fair... Characters look fantastic with great animation and it runs smoothly... Environments in the game look good and realistic.... Not to mention the sound of the game which creates an even better gaming experience...

I agree that everything counts, but am enjoying MGSIV, its really a brilliant game, surely a few bad textures here and there wont effect the overall experience...

its a great looking game, but i dont see how the 360 couldnt handle it. give kojimas team a few million and a year to port it over and i think they could get the same result on the 360. theres a space ssue with the discs, but with effective compression (mainly of the audio, which is what is mostly eating that space), id say u could get it down to 2 discs on the 360.

If they did port it over, they'd have to change some things around like when you see Sunny playing a PSP, snake holding the six axis when he uses the MKII, the joke otacon says about blu-ray etc etc.
Anyway, MGS4 seems to be selling pretty well. Apparently it sold a million on its first day so it should be profitable for Konami at least :)

MGS4 is a beautiful game and I hope for all XBOX360 owners they can enjoy it one day . If not, just buy a PS3 and enjoy it ...

The 360 could probably handle it, it isn't that far behind the ps3. But I cant say for sure, although Kojima himself said it would not be easy...

The 360 isn't behind the PS3 at all. The only problem I see is disc space. The 360 hardware would do MGS4 justice.

As much as you dont want to believe, the PS3 is more powerful. look at the visuals on each system, and it's really an easy comparison to make. even deeper than the visuals, the processor in the PS3 wipes the floor with the 360. Whether or not MGS4 uses the multiple cores effectively is something only the dev team can answer, and that may spell out whether or not the 360 port would be doable... or if it would be cost effective.

That's correct. The Xbox 360 can't handle MGS4. And never will.

hmmmm, I bet X360 could handle MGS4. It would probably just have worse sound and be on multiple disks.

What makes you think graphics wise this game can't be done the X360? Maybe when KillZone comes out you'll have a point if the graphics live up to what I've seen so far....but MGS4? I have the game and so far their is nothing I have seen that would be impossible on the X360.

I hate how instead of MGS4 being a great game, it's being used by fanboys as a damage control tool, I'd bet 90% of the ones using it for damage control have never even played it, it's sad.

Lets get somethin straight here Fanboys! the 360 can run any game in the PS3's library just as good (maybe on 2 dvd's) but just as good, and visa-versa with the PS3 & 360 library! If u think otherwise than u need ta grow up!

Well.....technically if the game fills up the 50 gig blu-ray disc, it's probably going to be more than 2 dvd's. More like 4 dvd's.

kojima has answered the questions that there are somethings that only can be done on the ps3, it's not just the graphics it's that totally amazing stuff that goes on in the game while maintaining a great framerate, which the cell would play a big part in

And overall there isnt a game that can hold a candle to metal gear solid 4 graphically on consoles, you have to play it to understand how good it is, some parts in metal gear solid 4 are just amazing

MGS4 gfx aren't that good.....it might require multiple dics for those cutscenes. The game is short (I beat it on aturday night, and I worked everyday b/w thurs and saturday), plus the installing bw acts is really irritatiing.

Yes, X-box 360 can handle it, and the only thing that would be downgraded would be the audio because you'd have to compress it.
