Metal Gear Solid 4 Xbox 360 version
It’s good news that we now know MGS4 will be in the shops on the release date of June 12th, but Hideo Kojima hinted that he had trouble getting all of the game to fit onto a 50GB Blu-Ray disc! Hopefully this means the game will be crammed full of gameplay and not HD movie sequences and I guess this lays to rest the idea of a Metal Gear Solid 4 Xbox 360 version fitting on a DVD.

It would be silly for Konami not to release it for the 360 considering the userbase and potential profit, Even if they did an RPG style 4/5 disc bundle.
The first PS3 game I am truly looking forward to but definately would be good to see it appear on the 360.

hmm, theres a reason Snake eater wasnt released for xbox
i wouldnt be suprised if MGS4 didnt come out on the 360 either. I think i will buy a ps3 soon
i forgot about the blue ray, they could always put MGS4 in 2 discs for the xbox

Are you a ***** Bill? MGS3 was released on Xbox as MGS3: Subsistence

substance was for the first xbxox u j4ck 4ss

haha wowww…
first off mitch…metal gear solid 2: substance was released on XBOX.
NOT MGS3
MGS3 is wayyy too good of a game anyways..
MGS4 wont be on the 360 unless Konami has like record low sales or somethin..AND theyd have to put it on like 5 or 6 discs and no one wants the hassle of multiple discs…so just get up off your lazy @ss and get a ps3..

this definately will not be released on the xbox 360, 50 gbs is a lot of data a regular dvd disc can hold about 9 gbs and thats about 5 and a half discs why go through the trouble of creating 5 discs for a crappy ass system like the 360? Blu ray is the future, and you all wasted your money on the xbox 360.

Ooohh precedent. If Substance was released for Xbox, but was not followed by Subsistence…wouldn’t that reflect Kojima’s and Konami’s opinion on the matter?

Guys we have to throw in the towel MGS4 will not come to the Xbox 360 one site says this, another site says that………. wat a hunk of junk. We are waiting for something thats just not gonna happend, lets just let bigons be bigons and wait for the next exclusive for 360
I mean lets be realistic DVD DL vs Blue Ray come on who are we joking????

acctually mitch is right. he didnt say “Substance” he said “Subsistence” try and read. and if anyone thinks this wont be released on 360 you are either very stuborn or very naive.

personally the only thing that comes to my mind when i hear that they’re struggling to fit it onto a blu-ray disc is that it’ll probably be even slower than the rest of the ps3 games, which is laughable.
i have no real interest in whether mgs4 comes to the 360 or not cos there are far better games out there that the metal gear series, but why are all the ps3 boys immediately denying that it could ever happen? the way it would work is that microsoft just wouldnt try to show off with overly-rendered cut sequences. of course it could happen, especially when its fourteen months down the line.

hahaha
All you ps3/xbox fanboys fighting over who’s the most powerful console, how cute xD
Ok i might not have mgs4 since i have a wii but at least i’m not falling for the stupidest argument in history: MY XBOX/PS3 IS BETTER THAN YOURXBOX/PS3 LOLOLOL

I’m pretty sure Metal Gear Solid 4 will not be released on the Xbox360. I’ve got pretty concrete evidence from a friend in the gaming industry who says an Xbox360 version will not be in production. Aside from the obvious problems there would be porting it over to the XBox360. Such as spanning it across numerous DVDs instead of one single Blue-ray disc. You also have to throw into play that Hideo has always been a die hard fan of the Sony Playstation brand of console gaming.
However, will this be the case for Metal Gear Online?
As far as the console argument “my xbachs is bettar thun ur gaystation” just chill out. Just play your games and enjoy them.

I find it really hard to believe that they are finding it hard to fit this game onto a 50 gig disk. You’ll probibly find that its the movie’s that they are finding hard to fit on the disk (not the game itself) due to the quality of blue ray HD. If this is the case (and it probibly is) then you’ll find that the game would probibly easily fit onto 1 or so dvd’s for the 360. Hell who’s to say that the game wont come out on the pc 2 years from now (just like the first two where).

they will be a blue ray lecteur on xbox 360

NOPE, there will not be a Blu-ray reader for the 360, Microsoft denied this few months weeks ago. I don’t think that the MGS4 on the PS3 will read slow, remember that the PS3 is the best Blu-ray player in the market. And also I don’t think It will be a 360 release, the 360 is not very popular in japan and they will not waste time with 4 or 5 DVD-DL. Hideo Kojima it’s not interested on porting it to the Xbox 360, It’s Konami, but I don’t know who has more power the publisher (Konami) or the creator/writer/director of the game (Hideo).
