But these are just side-details and they don’t matter at all. What really maters is that Konami confirmed that MGS4 will no longer be a PlayStation 3 exclusive! In an interview with Japanese stock investor bulletin Morningstar spotted by Kotaku, Konami’s PR rep Yoshitaka Arai said: “The worldwide demand for an Xbox 360 version (of MGS4) is quite high, and it is something we are currently looking in to.”
But I guess that’s not even news, since everybody was expecting that to happen, right? Well, I didn’t! I know that Microsoft’s console sells better than Sony’s, I know that third party developers have an understandable goal: to get the highest profit out of their games and I know that exclusives are bullschwitt in the first place. But I can’t pretend I was not surprised.
