The fact that the PS3 isn't making a profit currently doesn't affect MGS4. The PS3 is still selling pretty well and MGS4 is selling very well. There's too many technical issues to overcome anyways. Buy a PS3 if you want to play MGS4.

If PS3 EVER came out on Xbox 360, I'd chop off my own dick and eat it.

In other words. IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN

Sony are depending on software sales seeing as hardware sales are low and it costs more to produce and sells for less.

Now if PS3 exclusives keep going to other consoles and people buy the games for the other consoles, the loss would be huge. Although MGS4 probably won't go on the Xbox 360, it's very unlikely but not certain it won't.

Seriously doubtful, given the disk space differences. However, I think that now that the losses are reported, we're going to start to see even more future projects and franchises moving away from Sony exclusivity, possibly to the point where there aren't any 3rd-party exclusives anymore. It's already started with as huge and pretty big franchises as Grand Theft Auto, Devil May Cry, Assassin's Creed, and Mercenaries (2 was initially to be a PS3 exclusive), so it seems like the loss announcement would be the final nail in the coffin.

But if you look at those four franchises, something important to notice is that three out of the four are Western developers. Are you wondering why Square Enix remains Sony-exclusive despite the PS3's losses? It's because most Eastern developers stand to profit much more from the PS3 than from the 360 due to the 360's minuscule support in Asia. For this reason, I don't think developers will completely jump ship from Sony, but there will be some major Western franchises that branch out.

I think the more likely trend we'll see is increased third-party Asian developer support for the Wii, given the Wii's lucrative sales and the PS3's somewhat dismal ones. Every developer on Earth has been talking about wanting to do it, but now it's actually profitable for them to do it.

As cool as it would be I doubt it. There would be a lot you would have to tweak with the game though. It would feel kind of wrong though. That would be like putting Halo on a PlayStation. Wouldn't that be weird.

Nope. There's scenes in the game that would really really towards the PS3. Ones such as
this. Not to mention the compression you would have to do. There is a lot of shit.

But. Look. What is this? Is that a Xbox360 Dev kit at Kojima's productions? :o

Okay, before it was unlikely, but now it's just downright impossible.

Especially with all the millions of in game referances to the PS3 and whatnot.

As much as it's humorous spotting a normal Xbox 360 in Kojima Productions, Kojima is still very elitist about the 360.

If the 360 alledgedly can't support MGS4's graphics, then why did I spot polygons on the gun barrels?

Disk space, well, I won't mind having to switch disks between each act, but it's inconvienient, yet, you have long install times between each act in MGS4 (witnessed this when I was playing it with a friend.)

I'd rather have to switch discs every so often as opposed to installations, considering the 360's hard drive isn't as large as the PS3's.

Bioshock 2 is coming for the PS3.

Devil May Cry stopped being a PS exclusive.

GTA IV on both consoles.

Ace Combat went straight over from PS exclusive to XBOX exclusive.

Anything can happen... ALMOST! MGS4 is about the only game that is going to stick to its console. Why? Because of the ajor technical difficulties that it would have to take to "dumb it down" for the 360. If you think they have the same processor capabilities then you should be shot.

Yes he is. Probably because of the difference in processing power.

Did you know? Wow. This game has some of the best graphics ever. The entire game relies on awesome textures (OctoCamo) so thats why its fucking pristine.

Long install times? 2-3 minutes isnt THAT long in my books. You would need a disc for each act, you are correct. It would almost be funny to see how the 360 would cope with this game that is still in the early stages of an almost un-used processor of a newer console.

Earlier, i posted like 6 links in a thread for proof it's going to come out on the 360, but, it won't be for 12-14 months and it will have mulitple disks. So, shadowest2k7, i hope you like the taste of your own dick.

Note how you can change your PS3 hard drive for another with a third-party hard drive with a larger disk space and it won't void the warranty.

Did you know? Wow. This game has some of the best graphics ever. The entire game relies on awesome textures (OctoCamo) so thats why its fucking pristine.

Did you know that all it does is just swap two different textures for Snake's sneaking suit? There is nothing special about that, nor does it require special hardware.

Disk space, well, I won't mind having to switch disks between each act, but it's inconvienient, yet, you have long install times between each act in MGS4 (witnessed this when I was playing it with a friend.)

2-3 minutes is a long wait when you want to get back into the game. In the time it takes to install an MGS4 act (let's say two minutes,) I can switch to another disk in under 30 seconds, and the game would still load before the game is done installing on the PS3? Also, one can port the game to the 360, which would require different coding to work with the 360.

Holy shit! An actual fucking console of the sort a major game developing company that they arent developing for? Wow! That means sooo much. That means they must be translating a game to another console! It wasnt even a dev kit!
