Konami PR says 'maybe' to Metal Gear Solid 4 on Xbox 360

Could one of the PS3's last remaining mega-exclusives be drifting over to the Xbox 360? Comments from Konami PR hint this may be the case.

Konami PR says 'maybe' to Metal Gear Solid 4 on Xbox 360

Snake! New target acquired.

The Metal Gear Solid 4 on Xbox 360 rumors received a shot in the arm at TGS last week thanks to an offhand comment by a Konami PR representative.

It should come as no surprise, but the continued success of the Xbox 360, both in the U.S. and currently in Japan, are the driving factors in Konami's decision-making process.

"The worldwide demand for an Xbox 360 version (of MGS4) is quite high, and it is something we are currently looking in to," said Konami PR rep Yoshitaka Arai in a translated interview with Morningstar.

And that's it. No dates or timelines or really any kind of confirmation. We're kind of back where we started with this rumor: MGS4 is still a PS3 exclusive.

the xbox 360 would not be able to handle this game. Konami would ethier have to down the graphics or sound quality or cut the number of guns from the game

i agree. don't take me wrong i like my xbox 360 as much as the next guy but, i dont think the 360 would be able to handle the game as good as the PS3

I am sure some clever programming could make the game work as well on the 360 as the PS3. Either way, MSG4 on the 360 would sell like nobody's business.

How about just cut the long videos.

Amen to that brother. I really tried to like MGS4 but it was the long cut scenes that made me stop playing the game.If MGS4 is made on the 360, there would be multi disc and maditory HDD loads but this rumor doesn't want to die.

agree 110%, finally someone with some sense. everyone should be able play this game, it has it's drawbacks, but it is an epic story.

It can handle the game no problem graphic wise.
It would have to cut the video scenes as those scenes take up most of the space. HD cut scenes takes up major space or release the game on multiple disks just for those scenes.
Sound would be compressed as most games are these days. No difference there.

But if this turns out to be true, Sonyboy69 kills himself.....
