Metal Gear Solid 4 On 360 After All? EvilAvatar.com is reporting today on a survey sent to a poster. The poster claims that his wife completed a survey from “a fairly popular marketing and research firm.” Among other topics one of the focuses was the possibility of seeing Metal Gear Solid 4 on Xbox 360. The poster includes several questions plucked from the questionnaire.

"Would you like to see Metal Gear Solid 4 on Xbox 360?"

"Would you buy an Xbox 360 just to play Metal Gear Solid 4?"

"On a scale of 0-100, with zero being not at all satisfied and 100 being very satisfied, how would you rate Konami's output on Xbox 360 to date?"

Now don’t go getting your knickers in a twist, this is an unconfirmed source reporting on an unconfirmed source. Not exactly reputable yet, but it’s a lead. For the moment MGS4 remains PS3 exclusive, but seeing as how so many marquis third party titles are changing stances these days, it wouldn’t be that surprising to see Kojima-san and crew align with MS.

If Sony lets Konami get out of their pocket on MGS4, someone needs to start investigating SCE because they just might be intentionally running the PS3 into the ground. Few games have ever been as important to a system as MGS4 is for the PS3 right now. With it, Sony has a trump card that, if played right, will get them right back in this race. Without it, they aren’t necessarily lost, but they’re in a hell of a lot rougher place.

  • im tired of seeing microsoft taking all of sonys games,finalfantasy,devilmaycry4,assansinscreed,guitarhero,gta,i just heard their getting tekken 6 WTF!!!! and they try to steal little big planet and even metal gear solid 4 , stupid microsoft u know ps3 owns so u need to take sonys big hits u should be ashamed of urself u dont see sony trying to steal from 360 because they dont got nothing only weaka$$ halo, stop stealing from ssony make ur own games
  • silverfox,

    Metal gear was first released on a homecomputer called MSX in japan.

    Then hideo kojima made metal gear 2 solid snake (not to be confused with metal gear solid 2) and metal gear was ported to the nintendo 2/3 years later.
  • This type of Blog things are so bloody annoying. Stop saying the Ps3 is losing and look at the god damn sales figures. The amount of time the ps3 has been out for, has much more than beaten the 360 by the same time. THe ps3 sold way more in its first year than the 36, and is currently outpacing the 360 on sales, and mgs4 has put it up 180%. This was the same situation with the ps2 if you remember, even similiar sales figures for the same amount of time released. If you just wait a few years, the ps3 will be 2nd, maybe even to close on the wii. its only 5 million sales they need, and when you remember the ps2 sold 115 million, dont think the ps3 is down and yet, plus FFXIII, God of war 3, little big planet.... and others could push the sales up tenfold.
  • i thick thay should because msg is the shit so i rally think so
  • ok, first of all...

    the MGS series started on the Nintendo! so to try and say it is a Sony game is stupid.

    also Hideo makes the game. NOT SONY! they just put up the money to produce it.

    i would love to see it on other consoles, but we all need to keep one thing in mind.

    if Hideo can't get the game to fit onto one blu ray disk, then how many disks will it take to port it to the xbox?

    1 blu ray = 6 dvd's (according to their sale's pitch in stores like best buy)

    metal gear 4 will be 2 blu ray disks... do the math,

    a game that takes say 8 dvd's will not be very profitabole...

    so as much a i would like to see it on the xbox 360 for the rest of us, i don't think it will happen.
  • I sure hope it comes out the on the xbox. as an xbox owner I'd trade halo for a copy of MGS 4 on Xbox anyday. lol. Like someone stated eariler no body should be miss out on this great game. Konami will miss out on a lot of sales if they don't release it on 360. $$$$$$$$. Because alot of people including me will not buy metal gear solid 4 is only stays on PS3. I don't really see how MSG is playstation exclusive when did they release Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance on Xbox? hmm... Please come to XBOX 360! I am a playstation fan but I don't wanna but ps3! already have 360!
  • Man I hope this game comes to the sega dreamcast. :-)
  • To any 360 fans that say the 360 is cheaper that may be true but you have to consider all of the accesories that the ps3 has built in that you have to buy on the 360 for example a wireless adapter is $100 an HD DVD player is $200 which if you get the pro which is $350 that comes to $660 which is even more expensive than the ps3 the ps3 comes with a blue ray player which is $1000 or used to be (i havent looked recently) i have both systems but i hope that Metal Gear Solid 4 stays on the ps3 because the ps3 is a much better system it may not have the best games out yet but they are starting to get much better like assasins creed by the way im kinda mad that sony is taking away backwards compatibility that may be there downfall.
  • OMG!!! please make metal gear solid 4 on the 360 please coz i am such a harcore fan and i have a 360 and when i found out theres was a meatl gear solid 4 on the ps3 and this was tha same dai i got mi 360 i was in RAGE! oh please i hope they put it on tha 360
  • no absolut fan of metal gear should ever miss out on there game ether they hav a ps3 or 360 they SHOULD never miss out
  • Ok lisen i work at gamestop/ebgames....worken there for years.and no games inside an out..and to all u guys that diss micrsoft for not having origanal titles...theres gears of wars,bioshock,halo1,2,3,starwars knights old republic,and for u guys that say microsoft steals ideas,sony and 3rd party comounys go to microsoft microsoft dosnt got o them liek u ppl seem to belive,also sony has been bleeding money since ps3 released and the only way they can make money is selling titles to microsoft,also in my days at ebgames that ppl have been trading in ps3 sysems and games for ps2 and xbox360s..also how sad is it that sonys ps2 is gettign better sales than the ps3..the outragouse price is half to blame and the lack of good games is another part that dosnt help...so when u blame microsoft u should be really blaming sony for there own lack of games and pricing..and ther ebad judgment and as for mgs4 on 360 id love to see it ont here i think id bring better sales b/c sony would get a cut of th money and i spoken with plenty of ppl who say they wont be gettign it sadly b/c they cant afford a ps3 wich will only hurt them more if they dont cross platform games and grand theft auto got pushed bak on date by sonys rquest b/c of halo 3 being so big they feard it would nock them outta the watter wich it will..so b/4 u blame all ur sony problem on 360 look at the evidence..its sonys own fault

  • People who often defend themselves for no good reason are usually afraid (aka any fanboy-xbox fanboy and ps3 fanboy). Now I'm not saying MGS4 IS going on Xbox 360, but I do think that every great game should go multiplatform. Well thats just my opinion but if was any game creator I would personally do it for $$$ :0. Anyways if MGS4 doesn't go on Xbox 360 :( then I'll just buy the PS3 since the price will be lower because MGS in my offense has the best storys. Halo's stories to me aren't that great but Halo mad fun online.
  • I don't see what the big deal would be if they released MGS4 on both 360 and PS3!!! I mean Konami and Kojima stand to make a hell of a lot more money with a multi platform game. I have owned both a PS2 and Playstation and have liked the games for the Sony systems more so than the Microsoft and Nintendo systems as of the mid 90's. BUT... $500 dollars, even with the price drop is still a hell of a lot of cash to shell out for a game system, no matter what exclusive games are coming out for it! It is gonna be REAL, and I mean REAL hard to NOT buy a PS3 just for MG4, but I would rather miss out on what I believe to probably be the best game of the 2008 year than spend $500 plus $60 for just one game!
  • ...i think kenny is an idiot and im not tryin to be an ass but assassins creed and those games that were only spose to be on ps3 weren't microsofts idea in the first place so to say they have no new ideas is dumb and i agree with reaper i think the whole exclusivity thing is just dumb y should someone miss playing say mgs4 because a ps3 cost 600 dollars when they can cross it over to the 360 ppl r more willing to shell out 400 or 479 for the elite then they r 600 so i think it should come over
  • I don't think ANYONE should miss out on this great game to tell you the truth...
  • "mhan i hope this wont happen !!! MGS is for playstation not some stupid system like xbox360 ! microsoft already took ace combat 6 now they try to take MGS 4 .. microsoft dont have an idia on thair own they just stole some idia on sony becouse they are the best company world wide.. damn microsoft u guys are A HOLE"

    What are you like 9 years old or something? first off its Konami not sony that makes the metal gear series....and to shove a little reality into the mix for all you sony fanboys...metal gear was on nintendo way before sony decided to step out of the "walkman's" shadow and make games....

    read up little boys and girls before you spit out garbage.
  • Metal Gear Solid is a game so groundbreaking man may not see it for many Years. Gears Of War Is good too. and i really hope i dont have to pay 500 more bucks for PS3. i'd rather buy it for my 10x cheaper 360! All MGS games have been ported so its likely to see one for Xbox. so far these are the ported games:

    MGS For PS1 Re released as MGS: Twin Snakes for Nintendo GameCube
    MGS2 for PS2 rereleased as MGS2 - Substance for XBOX,PC,PS2 (re modified)
    MGS3 for PS2 also a substance game for 360,Xbox,PS2

    so 360 is likely even now with the HD-DVD Drive available.
  • What is up with these sony fanboys "OO i dont whant it to go to 360" Or you 360s will blow up"Why would you whant people to be forced to pay 600$ to play one game becuase you feal bad that you go riped off?And also any one that knows anthing about hardware and computers knows that the r600 GPU is a lot faster than the 7900 GPU,I mean the R600 wich is what the HD 2900 XT uses owns a 8800 GTX and your trying to say that you ps3 has more power.thats like comparing a game boy and a PSP there are in two different worlds.
  • Kenny, sony and microsoft don't develop games they publish them,so you can't knock microsoft for stealing sony's ideas since, well they're not sony's ideas are they?
  • The only interesting Sony-developed game is God of War. Everything else is third-party developed. I would love for MGS4 to hit the 360, then I got no reason to bye a PS3 and save a whole lot of money. I guess it will be some sort of 'sub'-title(substance,subsistence), allthough I hope not. I want to be able to play MGS4 at the same time as PS3 owners, not 6 months after when the game is old and forgotten.
  • mhan i hope this wont happen !!! MGS is for playstation not some stupid system like xbox360 ! microsoft already took ace combat 6 now they try to take MGS 4 .. microsoft dont have an idia on thair own they just stole some idia on sony becouse they are the best company world wide.. damn microsoft u guys are A HOLE
  • microsoft are only casting of sonys games because they have no ideas of their own
  • I think metal gear is a waste of time and there is no point them releasing it on the Xbox360!
  • All your xboxes will explode, besides from that, I cannot wait for MGS4 which I hope just stays on the PS3, you boxers can have GoWt and Haywow and we can have MGS and FF.

    Your machine is too loud, repair services are ball busters and quite frankly I hate microsoft. Sony on the other hand is having a miserable time but because they have never ever let me down in the past with just playing fun games then I’ll stick with Sony. I need to go wii.
  • I hope they do put mgs4 on the xbox 360. I a huge metal gear fan and I own a 360. PS3 is too much money and there almost the same graphically. I wouldn't surprise because remember Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance!!!
