     Xbox 360

Look I drink...

And I have been through the ringer lately. Over what you might ask. Well, that would be something that I personally can't discuss. But... and this is a big one. I can in fact bring you news that any company has made public.

This week the good folks at the lovely gaming company Konami released a video. Now I know that all of you Matlocks are already saying, "Konami said it wasn't a new video, but the same thing with a few new effects." Well, don't worry, the world needs idiots too. There are things in the video that are very clearly different that for some reason, have not been getting a lot of press. Kotaku and Joystiq were among the plethora of sites that covered the new version of the video, but even they made no mention of one thing I noticed. [Kotaku did actually]

Click "full story" and enjoy the show.

First off. I am sorry it has taken me so long to get this post up. I was a really tough choice to make, and I needed to think about it. 

It is time for a contest. It is called "Spot the difference." The prize for getting a correct answer is an all you can eat buffet of common sense. I know you Matlock's are going to love this one.

Picture A is from the original old video:

oldbusted

Picture B is from the new and improved video:

newhotness

Do you notice anything missing from the second one? If you need more proof, (and I know some of you Matlocks do) check out the video below. The part you want to see is about 90% of the way in.

What does all this mean? Well... nothing really. I am just happy that Paris Hilton is back in jail.

[Thanks CannibalCalvin for the video]

[Update even before it goes live]

Cannibal's video is a joke. I know the comments were going to boom calling him a Ron Workman fanboy (Which is a huge mistake to be one) and that some people may not get it. It is a Dtoid community thing. If you don't understand, then hang out more. The long credits are greatness that comes with the territory of Toidland.

Love,

Ron

Hmmm... why would Konami not put the "PlayStation 3" brand name on the end of their new trailer? I just can't figure out what that may mean!

I had the first comment on the last MSG4 story, so I guess I'll get into the top 5 on this one.

BTW, I'm looking forward to playing MSG4 on my 360 in 2010.

About the graphical changes... could it be that this new trailer is running on 360 hardware?

Xbudz, I doubt that is the case, but I do think Petal Rear Squalid Door will come to the 360.

Seeing as it was released by Konami and wasn't meant to be used as a PS3 advertisement, what would be the point of putting a PS3 ad on it?

I'm an insider as well. I had tea with Kojima this morning. Turns out that it will be on the Wii as well. Too bad every current 360 will be extinct by the time this game is released.

JennyJenJen, tea this morning? It's around 5:47am in Japan right now. Or are you suggesting that Kojima is here in the US, possibly for E3, and that of all the things he did this morning he had tea with you? Then, after that exciting morning, you came to dtoid and signed up just to post to post that comment? If NPD numbers are any indication, I would say the PS3 is much more likely to be extinct before MGS4 comes out. As an informed insider, I'm sure you'd agree.

The second part of Jen's comment sounded more sarcastic than serious to me. Just for the record.

Im confident it will come to the 360, but I really don't care either way as I've never been interested in the franchise.

Still coming to the PS3?Then it's all good.

@ Jen, Tron - ALL Game ads have the system logos emblazoned upon them. What good is advertizing a game when you don't know what system it is? The answer is simple. They dropped the PS3 logo, because it's not just a PS3 title anymore, and Sony wouldn't permit them to put the Xbox logo on there until the one-year exclusivity deal finally rolls over.

Done, and done.

TheStripe is probably correct.

There is a REASON they removed the Sony logo, they wouldn't go through the trouble to do so if they had no reason.

For any of you guys who can't figure it out, here's some help.

Tron Knotts at 06/09/2007 16:26
Tru dat, Reeper.

What this really shows is that MGS4 is 99% percent likely to not be PS3 exclusive, not what other systems it's coming out for.

But a 360 port makes the most sense.

Especially since Kojima said the game could be ported to 360 without sacrificing any of the experience.

They're obviously porting it to the TRS-80. Why are we even having this discussion?

Kojima saw Niero's video of Gears of War on the 2600 and decided he would develop it for the Atari 2600.

Ron, enough with this ridiculous idea that Metal Gear Solid 4 is coming to anything but the PS3. It's just stupid and totally impossible.
