He didn't thank Jesus.

@ JennyJenJen

Have you not seen the MGS4 trailer with otacon controlling the little robot? That whole trailer is pretty much a hand job for the cell processor. So even though konami is making it they were promoting sony...until now.

@theStripe

MGS3 (Snake Eater and Subsistence) was only on PS2.

Rosseh- I wonder when people are going to learn that complaining about videos they saw for free on the intranet is pointless and dumb?

Not everything is meant to meet your standards. If you no likey, you no watchy.

OMG, They took out the cell processor scene. That is even more proof than the PS3 logo. My decision of which one to get is getting easier.

The other way Kojima makes money is a huge chunk of change from Sony to not put it on another console. And unless I misread something, Sony doesn't have the deepest of pockets these days.

Spoiler Alert Workman... you are wrong


E3 2006 Trailer


TGS 2006 Trailer


Remix TGS Trailer

TGS trailers don't have the ps3 logo... only the e3 trailer does. Nice try but you failed, since it is a remix of the TGS trailer they used the credits from that one.

believe it

He is 3 days late at this shit anyway. NeoGAF and [url=http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3160129]1up[/url had this story on the 6th.

@Kassatsu

Do you think that maybe, just maybe, Microsoft inked a deal long ago, but still neither party can say a word until after the Sony exclusivity deal into 08 comes to a close? Most likely that would be the case, in my opinion.

Like MSG3, amirite?

No, like MGS2.

Crappy. But, the X-Box was a whole differnet ball of wax than this 3-6-0 shizzle.

Japanese games are selling on the 360. They didn't on the X-box. 360 players feel the japanese love.

They feel it.

I still don't understand this at all. Why are so many people so fucking dead set against MGS4 even possibly coming to the 360? It's almost like they're afraid that the mere idea of it will afflict them with AIDS or something, and so they must attempt to crush the concept with all of their might.

In addition to the whole thing about posting random links to unofficial and irrelevant fansites, they also keep bringing up other games that similarly have zero relevance to the situation in any way, like Zelda or Mass Effect or Halo or whatever. If there was precedent for these games appearing on other systems, it wouldn't be all that far fetched to believe that future versions of them might do so as well, right? However, there isn't any precedent for them, aside from maybe KotOR and Jade Empire and Halo on the PC or, heaven forbid, those shitty Phillips CDi Zelda games. That's about it. Therefore, it's harder to believe than that MGS4 is coming to the 360. That doesn't mean it's impossible that it'll ever happen, just that it's harder to believe. And, as unlikely as it is to ever happen, even if, let's say, Zelda did come out for the PS3 or 360, that's certainly not something that I would be having a gigantic hissy fit about, regardless of however big a Nintendo Fanboy™ I am perceived to be. Hell, ten years ago, I wouldn't have thought we'd ever see a Sonic the Hedgehog game on a Nintendo system, but look at things now. As such, I won't say that you'll never, ever see a Nintendo game on a non-Nintendo system.

The Metal Gear series, on the other hand, has appeared on all three last gen consoles, and even the god damned Game Boy Color around roughly the same time, so why is it so incomprehensible to some that it maybe, just maybe, won't be a PS3-exclusive title this generation as well?

No, really, why? I seriously don't get it, except to just write it off as simple fanboy asininity. But I feel that there has to be more to it than that. Can mere fanboy assholery truly be the sole motivating force behind all this shit? Ron seems to have all his ducks in a row for the most part, so why are so many people so bound and determined to make a liar out of him? Given the past, it's very likely that he indeed knows exactly what he's talking about. Because, as others have already pointed out, considering the limb out onto which he has climbed with this thing, heaven help Destructoid if he doesn't.

Could not have said it better 'I'm Ok'

@TheStripe
Well !million copies aint that much, it will still be awhile for MGS4 to come out.As we know MGS4 is one of the most awaited games for PS3 and by October when most of sonys 1st party games are out, more people will have a PS3 meaning more people will buy MGS4.And im not sure if there is a ps3 game that sold more than a million but i think Resistance sold 600,000 copies in Uk alone, so i think it might have passed 1 million, adding all the sales in other regions

Watching Paris Hilton cry is the best thing ever.

I hope it comes to Xbox 360.

I've never been a Metal Gear Solid fan but after seeing the trailer for Metal Gear Solid 4 I just want it. It must be mine and hopefully if the creators want to make some major cash they'll release it on multiple consoles.

Lets just pray!

i know it probably makes me a loser but i'm convinced that this will cause me to buy a ps3. they're plan is working! damn them...

Kassatsu- why don't they brand systems on TGS trailers? Is TGS a high holy day and one must not take the lords name in vain?

I'm Ok- I think it all boils down to this. Most people bought a 360 to play "traditional" kick ass violent games. Most people bought the Wii to play Nintendo games and weird games.

Most people bought the PS3 for a trophy, and to be a part of the "winning" team. Every time they lose and exclusive, their trophy gets less shiney. Their team loses a point.

I'm not saying every PS3 owner thinks this way, but a lot of the more vocal internet savy ones do.

@Jenny

Explain to me why it's such a bad thing if MGS4 actually does come to the 360? I'm failing to see why it's bad, especially if it comes out on the PS3 as well?

Also, 100 COMMENT YALLZ!

Why would anyone spend 600 dollars on a system, when the one real game they want is years away? Wouldn't the obvious choice be to wait until the game came out, and then buy it? Especially when by the time it comes out, the system may even be cheaper.

I still don't understand the reasoning. If she's just pissed because she wanted it to be exclusive, then that's fine. You can be pissed at yourself for being stupid enough to buy a game system for a game that has no real release date or anything yet. You can be pissed that Sony fails at keeping exclusives, that's Sony's fault. Not Ron Workman's, not Destructoid, and not even Hideo Kojima. It is entirely possible that Sony is fallible, I know, I was shocked too.

Jenny- Your reasoning is not convincing. The placement of the PS3 logo at the end of the vid is not an advertisement. It's an identifier of what console it will be on, just like all game commercials have on tv, etc, etc. But I know you know that. You're just trying to be funny, or something... right?

Tazarthayoot- Most people didn't buy the PS3 to play games right now. They bought it as a trophy right now, and they bought it to be "winners" right now, and to maybe play games on next year. The more exclusives the PS3 loses, the less their trophy is worth, and the less winners they are. The fact that they will still get to play games on the thing next year means nothing. The trophy and "winner" aspect is much more important to them than actually playing fun videogames.

Can't people just selltheir PS3's on ebay for $500, then buy a new 360 with the money?

Here's one currently going for $455, $22 shipping. Not a bad price for a system with next to no games.

I heard it's got a Blu Ray player BUILT IN!
