All the Metal Gear games come out to the Xbox eventually, that's been the trend since MGS2.

Also PS3's online play sucks.

Metal Gear Solid 4 will come to the 360.

Blu-Ray: Name one proprietary format Sony has developed that has succeeded. Yeah, it's been a while, hasn't it? Blu-Ray will likely become obsolete. And since like 85% ish of people don't have HDTVs, what difference does it make?

Internetbrowser: I think it's worthless on the Wii, the DS, the PSP...Why would this be a pro?

Free Online gaming: Which is nice, in theory, but it's supposed to blow. In my opinion, worthless, since I think online gaming's for chumps.

Upgradable HDD. Did not know this, that's a point in its favour.

PS1, PS2, PS3 games: There's shit out for the PS3, and most of their exclusives are lost. If the best arguments you have for the PS3 are that you can play old games (I wonder: You can play games from many more systems on the Wii. Does Wii pwn here?), upgrade the Hard Drive, and play a disc format most people don't want or need....

Yeah, it sucks.

Also rofl @ PS3 being better.

It looked better on paper, but they've crapped things up pretty badly during execution.

There's a cart-based browser. If you homebrew, there are evidently better ones.

Don't know where to get it, as it strikes me as gayer than a Kano post.

Kojima himself stated that MGS4 cannot be done on the 360. It is staying exclusive to PS3.
Besides it's being put on a 50GB Blu-Ray, if it were to be put on the 360 it would take at least 7 discs.

I stand corrected. Either this guy got smart and changed his mind for some more mega-bucks or whatever, but this definitely kicks ass. IGN reports that the title in Japan will be "Beautiful Katamari Damacy" or something like that...but I have both PS2 games, never played the PSP version, but the PS2 games are awesome. I can't wait for the next-gen Katamari game.

http://ps3.ign.com/articles/625/625699p1.html

It never says that the game can't be done on the 360, just that Kojima says he'd like to make something completely different in the 360 and Wii versions if they were done. Do better research before you just come up in here making wild claims.

None of it actually says it's not coming out. It's a nice way of implying it, but not saying anything direct. In fact, the last statement I quoted might indicate it down the line.

Throw in what Daminator posted, and it really doesn't look like an exclusive...But fanboys will see what they want.

Um, you go to the page, copy what's in the address bar and paste into a reply. That's really simple. I did a quick search and saw nothing of the sort anyway.

I don't see what the big deal is, anyway. In the long run, this news means "winner is you" (ie. the gamer).

I'm not sure we're winning, and I think that's why game sales are down overall.

All the systems this generation appear to have hardware problems. PS3 had the same launch crapouts as the 360. We're saying that the 360 is better because

a: it's not ridiculously overpriced because of a gimmick (Blu-Ray is a gimmick) that has a decent chance of not going over that well.

b: its online play is considerably better (even if it costs you, remember the old addage: you get what you pay for)

c: it just has a better line up of games

and finally d: their not nearly as far up their own ass as Sony's been this time around. Pissing off developers doesn't help your sales.

Yeah, ever since this turned into a mainstream Nintendo Vs Microsoft Vs Sony war, everyone has been trying to outdo each other, and fucking up in the process.

Me, I dont give a fuck who has what games where, I dont really understand the hate for it. I mean, I want a PS3 because I feel it has the games, the setup and the controller for me. I just like it better. If the 360 is getting MGS4then good! I hope you 360 buyers enjoy it as much as we will, same applies to other games like that. I think we all have our perks, all have our downsides.

Well, people are talking about its superiority because it's got the titles.

I'm on my 3rd 360. that doesn't change the fact that PS3 had massive problems, and continues to as well. We'll have to wait to see which has more problems in the long run, but Sony's nefarious for this shit. so that's not really a reason.

Hell, I need to send my Wii in. Doesn't much change things.

It's pretty slow and doesn't have Flash or Java support. If they could come up with a portable version of the Wii Browser though, I'd snap it up instantly.
