After hearing about XboxFamily confirming with a Konami rep that MGS4 was indeed headed to the 360, The Game Reviews contacted their Konami PR guy and he emphatically denied the rumor. Mr. Konami rep went on to say that "for the record, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is a PlayStation 3 exclusive and there are no plans to develop an Xbox 360 version of the game." Ouch. A bit harsh. So, that should be the end of all Xbox 360 MGS4 rumors forever and ever, right? That is unless Konami is hiding something and doesn't want their big 360 announcement spoiled so they deny it only because they know MGS4 is Xbox 360 bound! Ha! Taking a denial of a rumor and turning it into a rumor ... we're pure genius.

Well it doesnt do any good to laugh about losing an exclusive... if it sells like crap ont he 2nd platform.
At least pick it up and help pad the numbers a bit, then turn around and trade it in or something =)

i couldn't care less
i had mgs on the ps1, thought it was poo
mgs2 and 3 were also a pit shite, i rented both on my ps2
mgs portable ops is pretty fun, but i really dont want a ps3 for mgs4, ill stick with my xbox360 exclusives.
p.s. i love how ps fanboys keep comparing their very small amount of exclusives to halo 3 every single time yet they always use mgs4 as thier comeback to anything. ps3 is a blu-ray player, that just happens to play a few games, that is NOT what i want a console for.

hiding and running away isn't what I call a good game. if this MSG is all about shooting the hell out of everyone you see, then I might be interested.

I'm sure you made a very intelligent and well reasoned argument, but I doubt I speak for myself when I say I can't read portugese. Would you mind translating your comment to english?

Aww man, now I'm totally going to miss out on the realism of hiding in magical cardboard boxes and searching the jungles for cartoon monkeys! AGAIN!
+200 points for hilarious picture captioning BTW.

They keep denying it. Rockstar denied thats GTA 3 would never be on xbox and that it was a PS2 exclusive. Konami even denied that MGS2:SOL would be on the xbox, they claimed that to be a ps2 exclusive. How many developer's and/or publishers have denied IP's being anything but exclusive, but 6-18 months later , magically they come out with a press release saying that either, the game is in development for/is slated for release on a different system. All i have to say about MGS4 on the P$3 is "OOH, I can use my $IXAXI$ to move the dumpster lid up and down." Yeah, that really makes me want to buy a ps3 just so I can controller the opening and cloasing of a dumpster lid with motion controls. Is it that hard to move a thumbstick up and down?

Sorry, I actually fail at X3F's reply system. Read The-E-HD's comment (if you can) to see what I was really talking about. I think you make a good point.
I mean, at least I could understand it, so it's already got THAT going for it.
