Perhaps, but the level of sway GTAIV, Gears of War and Halo 3 have is immense in comparison. And they are on the more casual friendly, $200 less Xbox 360...

Metal Gear Solid is not a system-seller.

GTA, however, is.  Care to remind us who else is getting in on that action?

Honestly I think MGS is OK but most gamers are casual gamers that just want their maddens, and lives and wouldnt want to be bothered by sneaking around because they lack the patience so MGS 4 will do OK it won't be a PS3 savior though.

10 years ago playstation was the only real contender. Now we have 3 heavily marketed consoles battling it out for success.

Oh and, you know the part where you claim death on MS with MGS4.

Ye well I'm gonna claim death on Sony with Halo3, happy now?

you do know that is a TOS. BUt it looks like you have been banned before and do not care. Especially seeing how you "just joined today" and yet have 225+ posts. I am sure all of them are well thought out intelligent posts. Just like your previous one.

MGS is a great, if not one of the best, series ever...but it's not a system seller.

Halo/Gears sell systems.

FF/GT sell systems.

Not MGS.

Hardly.  MGS4 won't single-handedly take down the 360.

And besides, the 360 has games of its own.  Blue Dragon, Bioshock, Mass Effect, Halo 3, Command and Conquer 3, Two Worlds and Fable 2 just to name a few.  It's not like the 360 has ZERO good games coming out.

I think the real winner will be the game with the bigger console base, regardless of score. Halo 3 is going to be a knockout multiplayer game. Bungie is so confident they're opening it up to a large scale beta, which is almost unheard of. The world of Metal Gear Solid 4 is much more quiet... So only time will tell.

Yes, those games are going to rock........in what? late 2008? By then the 60 gig PS3 will be $400 and we will probably all own one. So as far as a reason to own a PS3 those are some compelling games. But why would you miss out on all the killer games coming to the rest of the systems until then. I happen to think that those games coming out so late is the best news gamers could have, we get enought time to play them all and still get to pay the mortgage.

And MGS4 isn't exactly a casual game.

This riverwolf guy is speaking the truth. By then the ps3 will probably have a price slash and a majority of gamers will have one. And all you Xbox guys know that if there was a ps3 for 400 you would at least consider it. Ps3 will have great games...the only problem is that they probably will come more in 2008.

MGS is a great series but lacks the mass appeal of say GTA. The GTA series was what made Sony the powerhouse it was yester-gen. MGS cannot do the same for the PS3 what GTA did for the PS2. It boils down to basically...

360 easier to afford, Gears of War, Halo series VS PS3 higher price, Gran Turismo, Final Fantasy.

Make your choice. I'll stick with my 360 because of Halo and Gears of War plus GTA no longer having an exclusive time frame to Sony.

I already have a 360, why would I spend $400 on something that already has the capabilities as PS3? MGS$.....no, 360 has a good line up of games now,and in the future.

That doesn't help 360 so don't give the whole ''ms exclusive'' thing. since it's a port nonetheless.

Why not it is a MS exclusive. Except for the 10% that game on MAC(hell maybe less). If you want to use PC as an excuse for non exclusives, you have to use that logic.

do you understand if the same game on xbox1.5 is on PC, its lost its exclusive? because now its on TWO different gaming machines. where id rather play it on PC because its better than everyway than on a console. = M$ just lost my 400$

Xbox 1.5? wow your so clever. Also... if its PC it still didnt lose its exclusive title. Outside of SW... those games are Exclusive ti X360 & Games for Windows. Please come back when you hit the age of 17.

Hardly. MGS4 won't single-handedly take down the 360.

And besides, the 360 has games of its own. Blue Dragon, Bioshock, Mass Effect, Halo 3,Command and Conquer 3, Two Worlds and Fable 2 just to name a few. It's not like the 360 has ZERO good games coming out.

l1mIt

which are all PC mutiplats... just to name a few :lol:

And virtually all of them will be Games for Vista, meaning DX10-required. Most PCs are not Vista-ready nor could be even if they wanted to (like mine--hopelessly obsolete).

I've explained this before. The reason Halo beats out DMC and MGS in terms of "system-sellers" is because of Halo's replayability. Not only can you play through the campaign together, but you can compete against one another online. Let me put it in perspective. The release of Gears finally put an end the Halo 2's reign over XBL. Imagine what Halo 3 will do... That, my friends, is a system seller... (How many of you are still playing DMC or MSG on a daily basis with countless others in a huge online community? ---perspective)
