Rumor: MGS4 360 bound 12-14 months after PS3 release

It wouldn't be the New Year without some juicy rumor talk and today it's all about the Metal Gear Solid 4. According to XboxFamily, they claim to have spoken with a Konami distribution rep who confirmed that MGS4 has been in development on the 360 since early 2007 and that it will release 12-14 months after the PS3 version. XboxFamily is pretty confident in the credibility of their Konami insider, but you can color us unimpressed. To us it's just more MGS4 coming to the Xbox 360 talk, another rumor we can add to the ever increasing list we already have and all we want is Konami to speak up. We give it another six weeks until the next MGS4 rumor surfaces.

[Thanks, Blake P.]

who cares you know your gonna want a PS3 eventually.

only exclusive games i'm looking forward to next year are Gears of War 2, Ninja Gaiden 2, Fable 2, God of War 3, Metal Gear 4, FF 13.

But I do prefer the black PS3 controller in MGS4 (to control Otacon robot) instead of a white 360 controller. that would just look weird.

Why does the color of the controller make such a big difference to you, and if thats the case, why not just buy a black 360 controller.

dude, i mean in the game itself, Snake uses a PS3 controller.

It'd look Stupid if they used a white controller, and it would look illogical if they used a black 360 controller, going back on their true colors so to speak.

Why don't we just say we'll get it a year after the PS3? Talking in months instead of years always comes off as some bad sales pitch.

Actually, after the last set of videos I've lost all interest in this game. Anyone who actually watched the gameplay videos should know what I mean.

I thought the trailer was pretty awful. The redhead has unmovable helmet hair, but she has dangly earrings? And the voice acting... ugh.

I would love to see this, so much.

more and more reason to not fork out for the ps3

Seriously, this game might be a little too weirdo for me. Don't get me wrong, I like quirky different games (nothing but respect for Suda51), but "Big Momma?" Really? The ass gyrating crotch grabbing gameplay may just be a little too out there for me to take it seriously. And the voice acting, this isn't the 90's anymore. You'd think at this point a "cinematic experience" from the virtual actors would be possible with such a big studio. Then again, a lot can change before this finally comes out, maybe all the crappy dialogue, character names, etc., will all be fixed. Who knows?

MGS may have been revolutionary ten years ago, but the good stuff from the original has all been adopted into better games.

And the stories of MGS games make Michael Bay films look like they should win an Oscar for Best Screenplay or something.

Why would anyone want to play this 14 months after release? That's like me getting excited that something like Bioshock would be coming out on PS3 in 2009. Who cares by then. Just play it on the system it comes out on.

1-01-2008 @ 5:13PM

Matt said...

Because the original system it comes out on is the PS3, yuck.

1-01-2008 @ 5:18PM

Nick said...

Because no one likes dependable hardware.

1-01-2008 @ 5:41PM

Rk said...

No it's just that people don't like to buy dependable hardware when they have a system that they can depend on for software.

1-01-2008 @ 5:55PM

Nick said...

That makes zero sense. You're trying to argue that people would rather buy $400 hardware that has a 61% failure rate, over another piece of hardware that has a 4% failure rate. Your right. People don't like dependable hardware, they love to throw $400 down the craper... Nice logic.

I spent $800. Half for dependable software on disposable hardware and the other half on backup hardware with disposable software.
