Microsoft responds to MGS4 and FFXIII on 360 rumors

sorry never gonna happenstefanlek

Like GTA IV

Ace Combat 6 being a 360 exclusive

DMC 4

How I read it was. The 360 is currently not getting these games. MS are trying to make the xbox brand and their relationship with the devs, such that the possability of them wanting them to port the games over is there.

Is final fantasy Xlll going to be m rated game?kyacat

i don't see anything being said until after their launches.

until then, it's another gta-type thing where mouths are closed (legally?) for the foreseeable future.

huge budget games require large sales. large sales dependon large userbases. ps3's? not so large...

Meh 50 gigs in Blu-Ray= about 6 DVD-9swdave92

Games are bigger on PS3 because of slow disc reading speed...not because of fancy textures...Heavenly Sword, Resistance, Uncharted...all easily possible on 360.

1. Has 3 cores to PS3's one core and gimped SPUs....

2. Far more RAM.

3. Easy Architechture.

He completely avoided the question.

Either way, I would assume Sony has contracted exclusivity deals for both games (which is not surprising).

the-very-best

99% certain they have,although weather that's times (like mgs2) is anyones guess.I think they have too much to lose by just releasing either game on just the ps3,by the rate it's selling.

MGS4 and FFXIII will not end up on the 360 in 2008.

Heh, exactly...let's look at some facts:

-The white engine is now multi-platform...originally it was Playstation 3 exclusive

-Konami pressures Kojima at least once a month to port

Unless Sony brings these two devs into a dark alley and flashes some cash, there might be some problems.

Do you know that MGS4 will be one of the most CGI heavy games ever? Not to mention the amount of detail put into them will be hollywood movie type quality. The opening cutscene alone has a bigger budge than most video games.

Blu-Ray is neeeded, this has already confirmed by Konami so don't post about things you don't know about.

Out_Kast3000

if that's true then they have no chance of being profitable just on the ps3 would they?

Yes he did answer the question, if you read closly when he talking about Konami and square-enix he says that "Those are business decision that they have to make"which he is replying to the question of Metal Gear. So the answer is no unless those developers say otherwise.

By not answering the questions they obviously mean that each Xbox 360 exclusive is coming to the ps3. This is soooo clear now.

See what I did thar?

For those saying FF13 will come to 360, Nomura crushes your dreams.

"Nomura: "Versus" is taking time being developped because the team is trying to explore the whole specs (of the PS3). Our programmers were asking, "is it okay if we program it as a PS3 exclusive? If you're thinking of porting it to other consoles, we might have to change the specs to follow suit the others." And I answered, "PS3 exclusive, of course.""

(Yes, I know that hes talking about Versus, but if the spinoff is PS3 exclusive, why wont the main game be?)

Why would M$ want to crush that myth?M$ wants to keep current and future 360 owners 'hopeful' so they won'tgo ahead and buy a PS3.

uh uncharted?

it has 140 mins of hd cutsceans, 7.1 surround sound, and big huge enviorments, with diffrent textures aplied to everything. the game may not be a 20 hour game(only because of cost), and it has lots and lots of extras. it feels 90% of the blu ray, wit no loading, texture streaming.

how does that not use blu ray?

G10mgs4

So over 2 hours is cutscenes and the game is 8-10 hours long total?

I thought Sony never bought Exlusives and as far as I know, Square-Enix and Konami arent 1st-party developers and it would be stupid not to go multiplat. But then again Konami released a MGS game on the xbox which didnt sell very well so why port it if its not going to sell.Square-Enix on the other hand is the most money-greedy company out there and thats why we see so many different versions of XIII. Im not saying that they are equal, all Im saying is that when Square-Enix has a franchise that sells then they are goingt to milk the stomach out of it (lol).

Then we have Microsoft who dumps money on anyone that could be a roadblock in the race to thye top in the console wars, Im sure they have offered a big sum of money on Konami and Square-Enix and the offer is going to be more and more generous as the time floats by and then... Microsoft will make an offer they cannot refuse... Muhahaha

MGS4 couldn't even work on the XBOX 360.

Konami has already confirmed that they need Blu-Ray.

Metal Gear SOlid 4 could be by far the biggest game ever in terms of space.

Same with FFXIII.

Out_Kast3000

That is so stupid of a comment to make. So now a a larger storage medium is required to make a game? LOL. Since when was multiple discs and more compression deemed an invalid way to make a game? LOL.

They literally avoided the question...guess we all know what that means, eh ?NWA_31

Yeah, it means they want people to think that those games are coming to the 360.

lol you cant actually believe that? Hideo is one of the most notorious devs when it comes to overexaggerating their games
