I figured it's worth a try to contact Konami and beg them to death asking them to do a simple port of Metal Gear Solid 4 : Guns of Patroits to the Xbox360 to reach a wider audience and increase the popularity of MGS saga. Sure, Sony's a real bitch to avoid this from happening but c'mon it's just a game and a port to mulit platforms means saving more money. Just because it's a port to another console doesnt mean it has to include extras and other others that wasn't seen before on the other version. (example: Resident Evil 4 on GameCube and Playstation 2) It's also obvious to see that the Xbox community is increasing popularity in comparing to the Sony community as well so who cares which game is it on as long as both companies are still popular. Look at Rockstar games' grand theft auto series it was ported exclusivly on the PS2 for awhile 'til it was ported to the PC and Xbox so now Rockstar games will be working on GTA4 for the PS3 andXbox360 so is that fair? It should be. But MGS4 only exclusive on the PS3. is that fair? proably not. As Hideo Kojima already has plans for new games to be made on Xbox360, but he said so himself that MGS4 wont even be on Xbox360 but c'mon it's not too late...we can still try to bitch and nag Konami to bring it to the Xbox360 also! Same with RE fans who bitch and nagged Capcom to bring RE4 to the PS2 and look at what happened. it successed! how hard is that? :roll: even though MGS4 is techically possible to work on both PS3 and Xbox360's hardware, I dont see whats the point of having this title to be only exclusive on the PS3 and not others so whatever to Sony, it's not their game. it's Konami's game. So c'mon people! if you REALLY want MGS4 to be on other systems, then let's start bitching 'til they had enough! :D
Of course, I dont know how to find the email that leads to the Konami corporation, even I did search on the Konami website, no email was found for either Japan or America but the phone number and fax number instead so if you know the email to Konami, please let me know and let's get our MGS fanboys rooting like hell!
 
Nope. The Metal Gear Solid series never impressed me. Don't get me wrong, Hideo Kojima has a wonderful idea but the controls just sucks. It's a lot like the Resident Evil series and their stupid controls.

Wonderful storylines, concepts, characters and everything but the controls just kills the whole experience in my humble opinion.

*edit* keep in mind, I was a hardcore Resident Evil fan up until the Nemesis one because I got too tired fighting with the cumbersome controls. Imagine if they made the game into a FPS? Same speeds and etc but much more zombies since you can move and shoot easier... that would blow everybody's minds :D

You should've seen Resident Evil 4. It was simply the best RE game I ever played. even better than RE2 and RE CODE:Veronica

Ah, now I remember Code: Veronica was my last RE on the dying Dreamcast.

RE2 is the best out of the series IMHO. I haven't played the GC version of RE4 only because the controls are still the same. I believe you that it kicked ass but I'm not going to waste my time fighting with the controls anymore when it can be done better. I'm sure many gamers feels the same way

RE controls <--- :smash:
 
Metal Gear Soild 4 should stay on NES where it belong to.. :)

If it goes to GameCube or Wii, then I guess I dont have much of a problem for that since Wii isn't that expensive anyway.
 
I played previous series on metal gear. Last one was on PS2 at friends. I was disappointed it was 3rd person (the way it control are not like first person shooter). I dont see why many of yous like this way? I like to play it behind of 3rd person's body for the rest of way instead of circling around the body. Its kinda hard to explain what I meant but I hope you know what I am talking about. FPS (First Person Shooter) was the only shooter I love the most. Some 3rd person are good such as GUN almost like FPS. Hitman 3 sucks big.
 
They might do it later. I rather stick with Playstation.

nay

keep it on ps3, and bring it to exbox 5 years later
5 years later?? they might just bring up another Xbox console then.
 
Gt-racing, you are wrong but that up to your opinion.

I doubt that would gonna happen though, only on PS3.
 
I'd rather get MGS4 on PS3 because that way i won't have to relearn the controls in the game.

Yeah, I remember there were PC ports for the first two MGS titles...

1998 - PS2 MGS1 released in america

1999-2000 - Microsoft gets the license from Konami, and agrees to release MGS1 on the PC.

early 2002 - MGS2 Substance is released for the PS2.

Late 2002 - Konami released both XBOX and PC ports of Substance, but decides to shelve a GCN port of Substance after seeing poor sales shown by the Xbox port.
 
I don't think porting MGS4 to the 360 would be a good idea. Microsoft may not want it to happen. Why? MGS4, as early as it is(E3), is so much better graphically than what is available on the 360 right now. MGS4 most likely will not look as good on 360 as it will on the PS3. Hideo Kojima making or producing new MGS games for 360 sounds good, I suspect he likes the multiplayer aspect of XBOXLive and its services.
Still, I wouldn't count out a port to the 360 years later, maybe on XBOX720. :P
 
Now there were rumors on the newest EGM issue that Konami is planning to bring MGS4 to the Xbox360 as well so to make more money and to increase the audience and hope to make the game an success like Capcom made an success with their first game ever released on Xbox360 "Dead Rising" and sold millions of copies ever since it was released. So Konami wanted to do the same thing with MGS4 but...who knows if it will happen?

Even if it does, then I would very much appericate it and would save me time and money from having to buy a PS3 since MGS4 is the only PS3 title that interest me and dont wanna waste 600 bucks just for that game.

Rumor: Metal Gear Solid 4 not a PS3 exclusive? [update 1] - Joystiq

Yea, I never play MGS on PS2 but used own at once for PS1.

MGS is pointless to own and not interesting to own it.
 
Even thou I really wish MGS4 would port to Xbox360 but I still have some doubts that it will happen cause of Sony. They WANT you to buy the PS3 so you can get the MGS4 game along with that console so...if MGS4 actually did come to Xbox360 then for sure Sony will be fucked but seriously, its just a game and I dont really care about exclustivy as long as the company would share the game with others on different consoles and make more money.

Like Ubisoft is already porting Creed's Assassin to Xbox360 as well.
