Xbox Japan Honcho At Metal Gear Event
Posted by XanTium | July 24 12:26 EST | News Category: Xbox360
 
Kotaku's Brian Ashcraft found Xbox Japan boss Takashi Sensui at the afterparty of the 20years Metal Gear Event in Japan:
Quote

ME: "What did you think of the MGS4 gameplay demo?"
HIM: "It was very good."
"Why are there still rumors that MGS4 will appear on the Xbox 360?"
"What do you mean?"
"Kojima appeared on stage at a Sony event, saying it was an exclusive. But the rumors won't stop."
"Many of our users want MGS4 on the Xbox 360."
"Will they get it?"
"Ask him."
Sensui points to Kojima on stage.
"I don't mean to be rude," I say, "but why are you here then?"
"Kojima is an old friend of mine."

So in the end, this story was pointless?

Exactly my thoughts and the person asking the questions come off like an idiot. Asking the guy why he is here is rediculous

You know... I'm beginning to think it isn't coming to the 360.
Think about it. It's a great way to take steam away from your competitor. Make all the signs point to it, and then deny it!

MGS sales has been declining since the first game. The last one sold around 3 million worldwide and the PS2 install base was 50 million+. I don't see MGS4 doing wonders for the PS3. I know i wouldn't spend $600 to play that game specially since it's not a game with a high replay value.

The point is that Sensui didn't deny the rumors rolleyes.gif

Just like a person who's guilty, he diverted attention from himself and pointed the finger at someone else....











BTW, I knew MSG4 was coming to the Xbox 360 the moment the Official Xbox Magazine's rumor mole hinted at it over a year ago....

You saying that made me think of this Link

As for if MGS4 is coming to 360... right now I don't even care anymore... I hear both ways and I'm getting kinda tired of it... If it comes it comes... if not oh well... they'll have that one game and 360 owners will have how many great games??

I don't see why that game is so great, for me it's very "meh." It's seriously the winner of over hype.........as bad as Halo.

IMHO.....................Splinter Cell > MGS

personally mgs and splinter cell cant be compared IMO because they both do the genre differently. I am probably going to buy it because i like mgs but im also going to buy the next splinter cell cuz the story for sam fisher has turned interesting as well (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Hate to say this but i reckon it will be an exclusive.  The gameplay demo looked amazing, but PS3 has to have something....!
