mgs4 is coming to xbox 360

Has there ever been a Sony platform exclusive Metal Gear Solid game beside MGS3 and its PSP follow-up? As far as I know, MGS1 was released on the PC and eventually remade on the Gamecube, and MGS2 came out on the Xbox as well.Snake Eater/Portable Ops are the only Metal Gear Solid games I can think of that remained exclusive to a Sony console.

I'm not claiming that a port is inevitable, but to claim that it is impossible just seems presumptuous. As for the strength of the Metal Gear Solid brand and its ability to sell consoles? Perhaps we overestimate the mass appeal of the franchise.While Metal Gear Solid has a very dedicated following, did Sonybreak any one-day sales records when MGS3 was launched?

Consider how many more PS2s were in circulation when MGS3 came out compared to the relatively small number of Xboxes when Halo 2 came out. MGS3 has sold about 3.6 million copies worldwide on a 120 million unit console. Halo 2 has sold about8 million copies on a 25 million unit console.

For the sake of argument, let's say that total units sold equals total units in use. If that's so, 3% of PS2 owners purchased MGS3 while 32% of Xbox owners bought Halo 2. MGS2 sold more copies than MGS3, but even at 7 million copies sold, only about 6% of PS2 owners purchased MGS2.

Can Metal Gear Solid really be considered a system-seller, especially considering MGS3sold half as many units than MGS2? Is a franchise really that strong if subsequent games on the same platform actually sell less than their predecessors?

I'm notmaking asubjective judgement on the quality of the Metal Gear Solid series. I enjoy the series.

software on xbox 360 sales alot more then ps3's

thats probably why they are making it come to xbox 360

They arent making it for the 360, MGS4 is built from the ground up for the CELL processor. Porting it will cost tons in money, hours and by that time every one who wants it will have bought a ps3 to play it on.

i dont care if it comes out a year later because its only single player

its coming with mgo.....but yea

this game is not coming out for the 360.....

as much as i would REALLLLLY want this to come to the 360, i highly doubt it ever will. just like halo 3 being on ps3, itll never happen. the site even says that its JUST A RUMORSpartan874

see... thing wit 360... is most games ....like halo 3 that are console exclusives go to pc... and with that said... halo 3 on ps3 is possible..... ;)

the cell processore isnt much more powerful than the 360 processor

so mgs4 can be done on xbox 360

also developers say it easier to make a game for ps3 then port it to xbox 360

This game IS online multiplayer if you watched the trailers

also i heard somewere that is was gonna come to 360 but it would take 4 disks...

losergeek101

question...why would it take 4 disks when the 360 and ps3 are basically equal?

It's going to be sad when th egame never comes and everyone is dissapointed.white_sox

I won't be sad nor dissapointed (i'm not big into the MGS or the SC... not a fan of the super sneaky genre stuff). I will however laugh if it doesn't come. Hell we won't know until it is released..... I know that because they even said that. If they game doesn't sell well enough (or i think if they agem delayed another time) it will be ported, but do you think all the people who a PS3 won't buy the game?

Yeah and killzone is also coming....................................NOTJaviBonilla23

Killzone is a horrible game...I remember the Fanboys calling it the halo killer..AAHAHAHHAHAHAH

Notice that your link has "rumor" in it. Get the hint.

Saint's Row was suppose to be exlusive we all though and then it went to PS3. But they never ended up making it.canadiankidd91

^^^ is their a 360 owner who bought their console with their own money and their parents, or better question is their 360 owners over the age of 13?All answers point to no.IppotheFighter

Suicide is an option, you know.

yeah, but there was suppose to be a ps3 version so you never know what could happen.

Yeah and killzone is also coming....................................NOTJaviBonilla23

big difference, killzone is owned by sony and MGS4 is not. Its not possible for killzone to come over ever.

besides, I dont really care if it does come over as I'm not a fan of the series but it wouldnt hurt.
