By now, i'm sure we've all already read todays Rumor Control article. for those who missed it, the URL is:

http://www.gamespot.com/news/show_blog_entry.php?topic_id=26698917&tag=latestheadlines;title;1

The speculation is on a cryptic new bulletin about metal gear solid posted on Konami's website that hints to a Metal Gear experience of some kind coming to 360. the 3 main theories are either a sequel to the metal gear acid series, metal gear solid on marketplace, or even Metal Gear Solid 4, which is what i'm really hoping for.

As a bigtime MGS fan and gamer, i'm ecstatic. Anyone else have any speculations, or thoughts?

I would love for mgs4 to come out for 360, though tbh i doubt it will :( Though i still would enjoy the original mgs to come out on marketplace. It jsut sucks that after playing and completing mgs 1,2 and 3 i havent had the chance to play and complete mgs4! so PLEASE come out on 360! dont wanna waste my money on a ps3 for one game!

Metal Gear Solid 4 will never come 2 the 360 never! But perhaps they can make metal gear game for the 360, but that wont be 4 a while.

I could see Metal Gear Solid coming to 360 just look at the other MGS games.

Let's face it. If MGS4 comes to 360, I won't need to get a PS3 anymore. The chances of that happening rely on KZ2 and GOW3, and if they don't deliver (I'm sure GOW3 will, but I'm skeptical of KZ2) then Sony's screwed. KZ1 sucked before, who knows what could happen.

The first thing I thought of when I saw the power symbol was the 360. Sure, most power symbols look like that. But a green power symbol has become pretty iconic for the 360, even PS3 and Wii owners know that.

i agree. mgs 1 2 and 3 are my favorite games of all time and having to drop money for a ps3 just to finish the series seems like a waste of money.

I highly doubt that MGS 4 will be released on Xbox 360, but if it does, it'll be a multi-disc package.

No one seems to remember that Sony's Blu-ray discs are much bigger than the dual-layered DVDs that Microsoft uses for Xbox 360 games. A Blu-ray disc can hold 50 GB of data, while a dual-layered DVD can only hold 8 GB. During development of MGS 4, Hideo Kojima noted that he had to make cuts to the game just to fit it on a Blu-ray disc, so if it does come out on Xbox 360 prepare for a lot of disc swapping, cuz it'll probably be a 4-disc thing like Lost Odyssey.

IF MGS4 came to 360 thatd be awesome...but then PS3 would then be really a piece of sh*t when it comes to competition besdies the blu ray player...i mean come on...a lot of people I know..or hardcore ps3 fans know one of the main reasons they get a ps3 could be the hit title mgs4...mgs4 is like gears of war for xbox in a way.. man...more the reason to NOT get a ps3 in the future...(i am planning on getting one if I find a job after college) hehehe

the majority of space used up on the blueray disc is uncompressed audio files. by slightly reducing the audio quality, the game could easily fit on 2-4 discs. i don't understand why switching discs is a negative thing. it doesn't disrupt the game anymore then a load screen.

Not to mention we can install games on the 360 now. If you do this you wouldn't need to swap discs during play, just when you install it to your HD.

I'm not saying I believe MGS 4 is in fact coming to the 360, but that is a bad case against it now. I hope it is coming for one.
