Metal Gear Solid: Rising Confirmed for Xbox 360
New Metal Gear Solid for Xbox 360 appears to star cyborg ninja Raiden.
With over two hours still left on the Kojima Productions countdown, however, there could be a few more surprises in store for Metal Gear fans. Also unclear is whether or not this will be an Xbox 360 exclusive, or if Rising will make its way to the PlayStation 3 as well. We'll keep you updated if and when more info becomes available.
E3 2009 -- the game industry's most important convention this year -- is happening all this week! Check out E3.1UP.COM for news, previews, podcasts, videos, blogs, and more direct from the Los Angeles Convention Center.

Metal Gear: Fox?Posted: Jun 16, 2009 12:00AM PST by Bloodbathes
I'm still waiting for a game staring Fox.
So...Posted: Jun 08, 2009 12:00AM PST by VAN1LLA-G0R1LLA
I didn't know Metal Gear had fans on the xbox. I used to be, back in the NES & later PS1 days. But since it's been many years since the last xbox game I don't think I'll buy. You know they'll just give their Japanese brethren a fully updated version 6 months later. Complete with all $100 worth of maps xbox user paid for via live download for free. As well as 300 VR missions.
I'm buying Splinter Cell. This is a game that took advantage of Hideo Kojima's racism of American made consoles and made a fortune.
ps3 is a paper weightPosted: Jun 07, 2009 12:00AM PST by deadfishes
Hey all you PS3 fan bois who's parents won't buy them both!.
I just sold my "special edition" Kojama MGS4 PS3. MGS4 sucked donkey balls. MGS1 and 3 are the only ones worth my time. Kill Zone 2 was impressive, but I beat it and Halo 3 has better multiplayer. Going to use the extra money from selling my PS3 to go towards a nice laptop! :D
not cool @jonseyPosted: Jun 06, 2009 12:00AM PST by cullenvampir
actually, microsoft has made a new series of xbox with better chips n heat resistant stuff and it came out in november last year. i was reading in a magazine and saw tham take it apart and test it and it worked better and didnt overhet or anything. and its not cool to make fun of girls and to yell at thm. it might be old-fashioned but being nice to girls is what people should do. and my friend has the ps3 and the 360. both run amazing and his 360 never got the red rings(he has one of the new ones,like me. they are called jasper....but thats all i have to say on the topic.......
the same friend who has a ps3 is a big metal gear fan and he shares the games with me and talks to me about them. i think theyre cool and i cant wait for rising(unlike most people,i like raiden) he looks awesome and i cant wait for this game.
now u might say 360 has too many exclusives and i totally agree. we have l4d,gow,halo,and thats only naming a few. the ps3 has very little exclusives and most of them are now being brought to the 360 (mgs,FF). thats not fair but atlest we gave bioshock to ps3 and theyre getting the second one. im all for no exclusives so that everyone can enjoy games because isnt that y videogames are made.

"Wow you're dickless LOSER!!!! I bet you think the PS3 can walk on fucking water you goddamn $ony fankid!! Have you heard of a job? or renew the warrantly? I hope your PS3 (or whatever system you have) blows up in your fucking ugly,creeply,nastly, Gollum looking face!!!! DON'T FUCK WITH ME!!!!!!"
Sad words from one who cannot accept that the 360 melts because microsoft cant take two seconds to redesign the system. Literally all theyd have to do is rearrange the position of the chips, but no, because of idiots like you who defend them, you're going to be stuck with tons of games and no console to play them on.
That's right. Even if you have a job (which i do) AND you renew the warranty, eventually, microsoft will move on to their next console and, when your 360 red rings for that final time, you my friend will look really stupid with thousands of dollars worth of games and no console to play them on.
I love it how you call me dickless and ugly. For all you know, Im the hottest chick you've never met so please, shut your stupid face before your brain collapses in on itself.
No the ps3 cant walk on water. What it can do is last longer than 3 years on an average better than 5% of the time which is more than you can say for the 360. Even if your console lasted since launch, it's still in the minority and it just shows your stupidity and disregard for others considering 90% of OTHER PEOPLE (as in, NOT YOU, you selfish s.o.b.) DO have to either send in their systems or bust out 200 more bucks on the fly, just to play games on a system that should've been redesigned by now.
I can tell though that you just like to screw yourself over, through your speech, actions, and even simple thought processes. This should be a lesson to you. Stop thinking. In fact, stop exisitng. You're just hurting yourself and others around you
JeezPosted: Jun 03, 2009 12:00AM PST by Jonesy4778
It's funny how somebody can call my comments fanboyism without reading the context.
I work at a gaming store.
New 360's red ring the day after purchase ALL THE TIME.
THESE ARE FACTS, not opinion.
No fanboyism here, just the truth. The 360 has been shoddily produced for over 3 years now and people just eat it up like its candy. They even defend it.
It's less fanboyism and more a frustration over a culture that WANTS to be taken advantage of by money grubbing blood suckers. SO SORRY.
Jeez...Posted: Jun 03, 2009 12:00AM PST by KnightsErrand
Everytime someone announces something for either system, this blatant fanboyism shows up to turn the discussion into something retarded.
Seriously, shut the hell up.
@stupid xbox fangirlPosted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by Jonesy4778
"I still got my Xbox360 (from the end of 2007) Call me Xbox fangirl I don't care if you do.I still like the console Heck I even got some skins and faceplates (next I'm getting the Street Fighter IV one) plus I got the 3 year warranty!"
Ok, you got your xbox at the end of 2007, which means by the end of next year, that three year warranty is junk BUT, at least you can go blow money on things like microtransactions for skins that should be free (including online gameplay...such a rip off...).
A FACEPLATE TOO!!!..ok that one was facetious but still, do you not realize that in 8 years, when the 360 has had it's day in the sun and microsoft is no longer producing/repairing the stupid things, all your games and faceplates will be useless?
Here's to you, stupid xbox fangirl. I hope that your system melts down before the end of next year so you dont have to put out 200 more bucks in the effort of prolonging your delusions that the 360 is anything but a faulty piece of hardware that is made to drain your wallet.
WowPosted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by Jonesy4778
You sound really stupid and biased. Did a 360 breast feed you?
wowPosted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by blanebishop
you sound really bitter did a 360 crack you in the head ??
@blanebishopPosted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by Jonesy4778
The jasper units have almost the SAME EXACTPROBLEM, you idiot. Jeezass...where do you people get this? Microsoft's web site? I work at a game store and new arcade units come in the day after purchase with red rings ALL THE TIME so PLEASE, let the jasper propaganda stop. The 360 is STILL a ticking time bomb of crap, waiting to either A) make you wait a month for a refurbed unit or B) make you shell out 200 more bucks for a console you already bought because it's past warranty.
Oh, and as for stores that offer a one year warranty so you dont have to wait for your console to be refurbed, remember, that doesn't mean the console is any less sh!t. It just means you're an impatient bastard with too much money to blow AND you can't admit to the truth about the system just being a p.o.s.
Tits!!!!Posted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by ultrabelmont
Exclusive or not I have both systems... Looks rad!!!
@Crys & TonyPosted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by hitnrun
Same to both of you! That's actually what tipped the scales as to which console I bought. I figured if Sony wasn't going to support BWC in the PS3, I might as well play some series I haven't played before like Ninja Gaiden.
Don't know if everything carries over because I got the original pre-Black from half.com. I do know you get at least one new costume, so some data has to carry over.
anyone bitching about rrodPosted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by blanebishop
just get the arcade 360 with the jasper chip set it runs great . very quit stays cool while playing longer end of story . gonna be nice to have a mgs game running on live
@CrysPosted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by TonyLoomis
LOL I hear you man.....
Not really sure.... First had Ninja Gaiden and the boss Alma Pawned me a few years back...than bought black and beat it on normal....so i decided to buy the original again in hopes I could beat it on Hard....Doesn't look pretty so far...LOL... but I'm chuggin' on! LOL
CrysPosted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by TonyLoomis
Dude, i just love games, no matter what system they are on. If their good, their good, if their bad, i'll sell it............regardless of the system.....shit, the most fun i've ever had with any of these systems is the original NES(and Atari 2600), so, yeah, i'm not too big on graphics and bells and whistles...I love GAMEPLAY and story! and pretty visuals are just icing on the cake! Currently playing Ninja Gaiden on Hard for the Xbox and Mike Tyson's Punch out on my NES.....see where i'm coming from?
@ Crys.....Que?Posted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by ghost_7
"@ghosts_7 - You sound obnoxious. Saying "M$" tipped me off. It's the gaming rquivalent of using words like "neocon" and "amerikkka" That having been said, General_Gamer can't be a viral marketer. He's terrible at it. He IS a troll, though, seeing as he does have multiple accounts on multiple sites"- Crys
1st- "M$" is my short way of saying/typing Microsoft (Are ya happy? Well...Don't be just yet)
2nd- How in Earth do you equate Me typing "M$" (see what i did there) to words like "NeoCon" or F***ing "AmeriKKKa" for that matter?
3rd- You sound Clueless.HAVIN' SAID THAT....It's pretty obvious that you are not a frequent reader/poster on 1up.com (your LURKER status tipped me off Amirite? Ooh.. the Lulz Indeed) if you believe this clown is not a viral marketer NOT ONCE this "individual" has EVER praised/complemented/SAID anything good/decent or just ok about the competition's titles, ideas or whatever from Nintendo or Sony.....NOT ONCE.
4th- Sheesh! Read part of one he's post. Sounds like a freakin' Ad.
5th- You don't like me or anyone else typing "M$" (see what i did there).........LEARN TO DEAL WITH IT or better yet......... Bite me.

Just heard the warcry of over 200 Thousand Sony Fanboys.
ghosts_7Posted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by TonyLoomis
Funny stuff ghost_7, after that laugh I won't be needing any coffee this morning!!!!! LOL
I own all 3 systems, and it is pretty silly seeing all these fanboys going back and forth. Guys, do yourselves a favor and save up some money and by the 'other' system that you don't have. That way, you'll have the best of both worlds! (hell, get a wii while your at it and you can have the best of all 3 worlds!)
I love Metal Gear, being that its been around since i was but a child! MGS4 was the shit! Long Cinemas? Come on fanboys, Metal Gear Solid has always been about long codec sequences and over the top long cinemas! Thats why it stands out! the Story telling is just as important as the gameplay, for me anyways! But this Metal Gear Solid: Rising on the 360 is great news! I'm all for Metal Gear on Multiplatforms, because i have all 3 platforms! ITS COOL TO HAVE ALL 3 SYSTEMS!!! I'M A GAMER FANBOY, how about that one!!
Oooh for the love of (Whatever Deity u worship)....Posted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by ghost_7
...SILENCE !!! you Damned Fanboy(s) VERMIN AstrangeDisease and Viral Marketer General_Gamer A.k.a Mike_mgoblue A.k.a John_Gamer A.k.a Saren_Arterius (for those of ya with the attention span of a gold fish and those who just don't pay attention....YES! He's the one and the same. Hey! it's this ANOTHER of yours Mr. Viral Marketer?
Sorry Dawg But i had(somebody) to call ya on your FUD.
"Firmware Update 2.4 for the Playstation 3 ruined hundreds-of-thousands of Playstation 3 consoles, all because Sony was the company that messed up."- General_Gamer A.k.a Mike_mgoblue A.k.a John_Gamer A.k.a Saren_Arterius
Really? News to REAL PS3 owners! Dawg...Haha ha ha....Dawg you couldn't even get 4 ppl to post about their "Ruine" PS3's on this site! Hundreds-of-Thousands!? The affected rate was less than minimal...how does less than (NOT EVEN)1% of those who updated to 2.4 Firmware sound to Ya?
"I like the way Microsoft gave the money back to people who paid for repair costs for Xbox 360. I like the way Microsoft has extended the Xbox 360 warranty to three full years." - General_Gamer A.k.a Mike_mgoblue A.k.a John_Gamer A.k.a Saren_Arterius
Ha ha ha ha ha....Yeah Like....M$ had any other choice! M$ kept PumpingX360 Consoles out of those assembly lines in China KNOWING that 3~4 OUT of 10 were faulty.Their mantra was...Release NOW and PATCH LATER...With no regard for their Fans/consumers. M$ could smell a Pretty BiG Lawsuit comin' their way. Or you read this....
"Thankfully Microsoft fixed all of the potential defects in the Xbox 360 with the "Falcon" model console that launched in 2007." -General_Gamer A.k.a Mike_mgoblue A.k.a John_Gamer A.k.a Saren_Arterius
QUE!!!!!!!? Haha ha ha ha Dude! you're killin' me!!!!
"What's even better is that Microsoft has redesigned a new model of Xbox 360, called the "Jasper" that has been available since 2008. The Jasper keeps the great design of the Falcon, but it goes a step further by reducing the amount of power consumed by the console, and the DVD drive makes even less noise. When you go to a store and buy an Xbox 360, you are buying a great console that offers the biggest and best library of games, the most features, the biggest and best movie library, great technical service, and the best warranty." -General_Gamer A.k.a Mike_mgoblue A.k.a John_Gamer A.k.a Saren_Arterius
THAAAAANK YOU Mr. Viral marketer....JASPERS SHSMASPERS It's too early to tell since manufacturing of those Jasper's X360 began around 10-23-2008.
"I'm not a fanboy..." - General_Gamer A.k.a Mike_mgoblue A.k.a John_Gamer A.k.a Saren_Arterius
Yes, you're NO, You're a Viral Marketer.
"I'm just someone who tells the truth and looks at things from both point of view. Do I want to waste $35 on a Blu-ray disc, or would I rather watch a 1080p download on my Xbox 360 at any time." - General_Gamer A.k.a Mike_mgoblue A.k.a John_Gamer A.k.a Saren_Arterius
Really? $35 for a Blu-Ray Disk? Where do you shop? At I'm2StoOopid.com for all of your HiDef Needs? Yeah 'cause You'll get OPTIMUM1080p Picture and SOUND Quality from a X360 download......Riiiiiiiiiight. Btw My two HdmiLess X360s say Hi.
"I remember how the PS3 fans of MGS4 used to say "on Xbox 360 you will have to swap discs." -General_Gamer A.k.a Mike_mgoblue A.k.a John_Gamer A.k.a Saren_Arterius
Dawg...that was just a teaser video. No one but Kojima/konami knows what it will be. Unless it's some kind of side story/expansion.IF it turns out to be a FULL BLOWN title the same size and scope of MGS4 on the Triple.....Then You'll get to pick you'll lil' Boxset for your X360.
"I'm excited because Metal Gear Solid: Rising focuses much more on action-style gameplay. I was not a fan of the movie-style gameplay (or should I say movieplay) in MGS4. The 90 minute cinema scenes were not cool, since they were boring and had terrible voice acting." -General_Gamer A.k.a Mike_mgoblue A.k.a John_Gamer A.k.a Saren_Arterius
Oooh So...Metal Gear is Cool now that something has been announced for the X360 Eh? 90 Min. Cinemas? The Longest Scene was the Ending and it was NOT 90 minutes.....You would've Known that if you HAD only played the game, You Viral marketing LOSER.
Oooh BOoy! I can't wait for the Phony and PreTendo press conferences!
wow, you Sony guys are upset?Posted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by erok8150a
this is why it pays to have BOTH consoles so you dont end up being a hive minded drone like these guys WHO ARE BITCHING because Microsoft is doing exactly what Sony should have been doing ' or used to do before they got all full of themselves, SECURING EXCLUSIVES..'.
the news that everything Sony told you wasnt so is so shocking that you get Sony fanboys telling people to shut up, or go screw ourselves or whatever.
its been almost 4 years since PS3 launched to mass disapointment and Hysteria and still you guys are defending the dynasty. WHY?
its so funny that actual news of microsoft doing so well has got the little sony drones all riled up.
its VIDEO GAMES, GET A GIRLFRIEND OR A LIFE...
dont worry, im sure Sony wont let you down at E3 this year any more than they have in past years.
man what a difference 5 years makes and no B.S reports about the Cell and no faked CGI footage of a Sony game that isnt coming out till 2020.
as a PS3 360 Owner i am looking forward to GOD OF WAR 3 and UNCHARTED 2.
its a luxury i have of being NEUTRAL and owning both consoles.
but as Sony always says...JUST WAIT....
lightning bolt action?Posted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by ltzany
in the past on PS2, the re-released MGS2 and MGS3 with new features on the xbox. At first i figured that is what this was. Who knows, i'd imagine its going to be released for the Ps3. We'll see.
did anybody catch the "Lightning Bolt Action" titling on the last screen? wonder what that is about.
WellPosted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by solidfenix
Before I just tried to calls it like I see it without tryin to be biased to either one, but my 360 just tanked on me this morning a day after they got done telling everyone how great they are. So you'd have to forgive me if I'm a little pissed at the moment. So for right now I'm am on Sony side Totally until they fix my system.
Ninja Gear-den?Posted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by solidfenix
It might still be sunny. She might be using his code name now. It seems like a Kojima thing to do. I dont know why Kojima seems hell bent on trying to make Raiden cool though. Like he has something to prove. He is not well recieved in the West. I remember when I bought MGS2 when I was 15. I got an after school job just so I could afford to get it on day one and get back into Solid Snakes shoes. I must of played the Demo that came with ZOE a 100 times. And after about two hours of completing the Tanker incident , I'm stuck with this new Guy/girl who crys about everything. I felt so ripped off and mad. Its still #1 on my list Video Game Screw jobs. And after that i just really dislike this chacter. He was better in MGS4 i will say, but I'm glad I never had to play him. Ninja or no ninja. I have a feeling this new game is gonna be hack and slash ala Ninja Gaiden or Devil May Cry. Which makes sense seeing as he didnt seem like a very stealthy ninja in the last game.....Which to me isnt metal gear. I'm sure the 360 folks are gonna jump on the whole Raiden bandwagon now...Which I mean.....They really have no choice. Its all they get. To me it just looks like sony didnt care to lose the exclusiveness to this game. If it had 5 in the title, I bet they would of shelled out the money to keep it for themselves. They still have exclusiveness to MGS4 which in my opinion is a bigger win for Sony than the 360 getting this new game. If the 360 wants to continue to tell Raidens story than by all means have at it. I hear sonys getting Big Boss anyway, which to me is another big win. They get 2 Metal Gear games.....Well I guess one metal gear game and one Raiden game that uses the name Metal Gear so people will buy it.
with the high cost of a metal gear gamePosted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by abercrombieco2
why not put it out on 360 and ps3 , and even pc. the economy isn't geting any better , pluss more people can enjoy this game, i'm not 100% sure what system i'll buy it for , i'm going to lean towards ps3 for now , but if it involves more install times i might avoid it and get it for 360. but if you think this game is coming out any time soon than your kidding your self , 2011 will probally be the earliest maybe even 2012. i'm sure we'll see this game will highlight next years e3.
@blanebishopPosted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by gravityman
Yep, general gamer is def saren arterius. Seriously, this dude is freaking annoying. -Metal Gear Solid 4 was a horrible game but now that the series is coming to 360 its gonna be great because the 360 is so amazing because of blah blah (technical crap that probably isn't true but nobody knows what the hell he is talking about so nobody can argue against it). Seriously, worst fanboy I have ever seen on the net. Game should be cool regardless of system. People shouldn't show so much console love. Both Microsoft and Sony are probably evil companies headed by people who would kill their mothers for profit. Haha.
not disappointed...Posted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by kontractkiller
I'm a ps3 owner & i'm not disappointed by this news at all.
Kinda didn't like Raiden as a character. A reboot or a remake would've been awsome, yet somehow this game dosen't get my interest peaked. Still, maybe the PSP game will tie in somehow & get me interested again... Metal Gear Solid will always be snakes story to me. They could rename this to 'Metal Raiden'.
As Long as I PLAY itPosted: Jun 02, 2009 12:00AM PST by DOCTOR_XBOX
exclusive or NOT as long as now I can play it on MY 360..I'm all HAPPY ...No GAME or SYSTEM SUX at least not to the GAMERS playing them

@xyzygyPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by earlgreyteahot
If you hate your PS3 so much then sell it.
while the series that PS3 owners have always wanted, Mass Effect
are you fucking kidding me? Mass Effect? I have Mass Effect for the X360, and I am a proud PS3 owner and I LOVE IT! So whats to stop a PS3 owner out there from buying Mass Effect? You acting like PS3 owners don't have PC's when we obviously need one to POST HERE.....moron. You don't have a PS3, you're a damn ass lie.
Its the time of the year where fanboys from all three consoles come out of their mom's basement and have their annual war bout which system is superior.
Ain't that the truth. I'm regular here at 1up and I haven't seen these morons post ever in my life.
I love E3Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by xero37
Its the time of the year where fanboys from all three consoles come out of their mom's basement and have their annual war bout which system is superior. People, the PS3 and the Xbox 360 are pretty much the exact same thing. No system is superior to the other. Each system basically offers you the same game playing experience, with a few modifications. And on terms of visuals, the only way you are going to tell an absolute difference is if you disect every inch and look for problems. People see what they want to. I have seen games like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Fallout 3 on both systems and could not tell any difference. A friend of mine who had both systems says Modern Warfare looks better on the PS3.
AS for first and third party games, well pretty much every third party game is multiplatform these days. With high cost of developing, its only natural. The first party games is what sells the system. The Xbox 360 has Halo, Gears of War, Mass Effect, Forza, Alan Wake, etc... The PS3 has Killzone, LittleBigPlanet, Uncharted, Resistance, Ratchet and Clank, God of War, etc...
Everyone really needs to stop fighting and just enjoy all these great games.
(Besides, IGN is reporting that Metal Gear Solid: Rising is coming for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. Although not officially confirmed about the latter two.)
CONFIRMED: MGS RISING multiplatform.Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by elcomegato
For XBOX 360 PS3 and PC.
MGS Peace Walker for PSP, maybe starring Big Boss.... or Grey Fox, who knows.

Poor PS3 :(Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by xyzygy
i'm just glad microsoft was able to steal something so valuable like Metal Gear and make it multiplatform, while the series that PS3 owners have always wanted, Mass Effect (my favorite game ever created, it's that good PS3 owners :P) stays exclusive to Microsoft and their PCs. MWAHAHA. i love getting the ps3 fanboys mad - hey, i have a ps3 too. i only have 5 games for it. and you know, of those 5 games, all three in those pics there, yeah. i have em.
i have 36 games for my 360. anything, save a few, that i want on my ps3 i could get on my 360 with better online play and services. PS3 is only for exclusives... which is looking slim lately.

Its okay dude. Enjoy your 6 year wait for the next big (living up to its own hype and is successful) ps3 title.
Better yet, maybe the ps4 will be out by then and you can have your hopes up again from Sony selling you dreams and a gallon of hope.
Im by no means a fanboy but i hate when they act like they someone just cleveland steamrollered on their mom just because the other system has something good going on for itself. Did you start playing games to bitch and moan about which system is better OR because games were entertaining and fun
Yeah YeahPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by Jonesy4778
You 360 poons can say what you want.
In 8 years, when i can play ps3 games and I CANT play any of my 360 games because the system itself is not being repaired/even MADE anymore by microsoft AND it has a 90% failure rate (ie, you better PRAY it eats it before the warranty runs out or else it will after, costing you AT LEAST another 200 bucks), Ill know i made the right decision. The fact that you can actually even DEFEND a system that melts down 90% of the time due to lazy hardware design PROVES that you xbox fanboys are just mindless idiots that truly don't deserve opinions.
MAYBE if you morons had actually harnessed your outspoken nature and DEMANDED MICROSOFT FIX THEIR PIECE OF CRAP, all your games wouldnt be useless 6 years from now.
If you own a 360, just know you are slightly being taken advantage of. Maybe not at the moment, but in the long run, you're getting boned, idiots and the sad part is is you're actually ASKING FOR IT.
No wonder big buisness is gonna kill this country in the end. Idiots who eat sh!t and like it like you people....
shut up!Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by skooby

kojima and his team were practically the only ones that put the ps3 to good use.
I've never seen so many 360 morons here in my life. I feel ashamed to own a 360 right now.
@xyzygyPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by JonDee
ahhh! ur right! kojima and his team were practically the only ones that put the ps3 to good use. now.. we can have a real comparison between how the 2 systems work. these guys really put a lot of work into the things they do. wen it comes out on ps3 u can do a real comparison. and yes if u havent see it will be on pc ps3 and 360
for thos of u that dont seem to see it.
theres that as well as another article with words from xbox VP's mouth that its a non exclusive game. either way which ever system it goes to first (most likely 360) thats the system im gonna get it for.. aslo, being the mgs fanboy i am.. i might end up getting it for ps3 also just cuz i can. hhahaha
actuallyPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by earlgreyteahot
have you ever seen comparisons of fallout 3 on both systems? shitty textures on the ps3.
actually the PS3's textures were closer to the PC's, which is good. The defining difference between both versions was that the 360's had better AA and framerate, but with better AA and Framerate, came at a cost, the textures are low qual. Most Multi's these days are mirror images of each other. Look at Star Wars Force Unleashed, exact mirror image copy. It can be done. Look at COD: WOW or Modern Warfare, both 60fps, looks the same.
@spacemonkeyPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by xyzygy
the 360 can do anyhting the PS3 can do. Microsoft got MGS, Sony didn't get ME2. HAHA.
even if the processing speed of the PS3 is faster, developers still suck at developing for it. which is why most multiplatform games have an advantage on the 360. have you ever seen comparisons of fallout 3 on both systems? shitty textures on the ps3. even GTA4 has frame rate issues on the PS3. MGS4 has shown that in the right hands, the PS3 can be technically amazing, though. let's just wait and see what they can pull off on the 360.

What you just wrote completly sums up the kind of trash that represents the gaming population.
And the Big Boss pic in the teaser site most definitely is for the PSP series, probably when he was in Nam.

Bitch all you wantPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by vaultdweller1313
Nobody's opinion is going to change, you're all waisting your time bitching at eachother about why you think a system sucks. It's one game people! a war breaks out over a game that could (and probably won't be) a console exclusive. Guess what, it happens. Chill out, both systems have their strengths and weakness, even if you believe one or the other is god's gift to the world and the other is a pile of shit.
I know this post is pointless since fanboys will always be fanboys, but i'm sick of hearing people whine at eachother once something comes out that favors one system or the other. Do i wish i could play PS3 games? hell yes! but having to pay my way through college is forcing me to only own one system, so i can't enjoy them. Do i bitch and moan about how much the PS3 sucks everytime they get an exclusive? No, i suck it up and enjoy the games i have. Perhaps you all should do.
Alright, i'm done with my pointless rant.

OMFG WTF X(Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by -MindFreak-
WOW WTF why is MGS going for Xbox 360 WTF the only thing that kept the PS3 apart from the 360 was this game EXCLUSIVE FOR PS3 so now I'm like WTF WHY OMFG PS3 deserves this game and only PS3 F the 360 gey system that you gotta pay $60 a year and buy a $100 wireless gizmo to go wireless while the PS3 has free online and already built-in wireless adapter. On the long run PS3 is a lot cheaper. Lets do some math here you have the PS3 and or 360 for three years. PS3 ,160GB HDD for storing games, music, videos and photos, High-definition Blu-ray player for a superior movie-watching experience, Internet ready with built-in Wi-Fi,Two USB ports,HDMI output for 1080p resolution (cable sold separately),Plays DVDs and CDs,Cell Broadband Engine advanced microprocessor, Uncharted: Drake's Fortune game, which has great replay value now that trophies were incorporated, DUALSHOCK®3 , which has motion sensors, wireless controller,AC power cord,AV cable,USB cable for $499 which to date is the PS3 best bundle after the MGS4 one While the Xbox 360 Elite has which I consider the best bundle yet, Xbox 360 Elite Console with Exclusive Red Finish, matching red wireless controller,120GB hard drive,Resident Evil 5, Super Street Fighter® II Turbo HD Remix,Exclusive Resident Evil Premium Theme,Xbox 360 black wired headset,HDTV-ready component HD AV, HDMI and Ethernet cables,Xbox Live 1 Month Gold Subscription for $399 but you see for the to match the 360 you would need an HDMI cable which for me was $48.99 at Wal-Mart and and also RE5 which adds up to a cost of $607.99 while for 360 $60 a year for internet service to play online plus the wireless gizmo for $100 adds up to a total of $679, to get those extra 40GB you would need another $40 too, and you would still have to pay year after year to play online, btw this math is over a course of three years, now after explaining this which one would you rather buy?
@goku912Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by earlgreyteahot
That's the refurb hell. MS will never send you a newer console that doesn't match your current model. If he has a 1st edition one then he's only gonna get a patched up 1st edition that's also prone to red-ringing. My advice is to dump the 360 and get a newer one which is a hell of a lot more reliable. I had to send mine back after a month due to a DVD drive defect but the one they sent back to me had that fixed + it ran a lot cooler too.

i told you guys this was coming, diminish it all you want but Sony now has only 2 exclusives left.
ignorant ass motherfraker. TWO? Are you fraking kidding me? TWO? WTF happened to Gran Turismo, LittleBigPlanet, Killzone, Ratchet and Clank, Sly Cooper, Genji, and all the other bajillion exclusives they have? HUH? Dumbass.
about MGS:R
It's Raiden. Kojima said so at the MS Conference.
Watch the trailer.Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by AstrayRaven
It IS Raiden. Forget the eyes and whatever crap you have in your head. The trailer revealed at E3 names the character as Raiden. "Raiden is back." is said at the end of the video, all the symbols seen are Kanji for "Thunder" and "Lightning", and it more than explains the lightning in the teasers and the "Lightning Action" label.
Also, upon re-watching the video just now, I noticed that at the end of the teaser where it shows the website and logos, it only shows Microsoft and Xbox360 logos. In every other video/teaser like that for every other game, if it's multiplatform it shows all the systems the game will appear on, no matter what. I'm afraid this may be an exclusive title. If not, why not just announce it at the Konami press conference? Damn... the waiting begins again.
MAN...Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by EATMEAHX8
Why can't we just say this: a) people who have both systems will (hopefully) have two great gaming experiences and b) those with only one system will find a franchise that's totally solid (excuse the pun) on both platforms and a good reason to invest in one?

i told you guys this was coming, diminish it all you want but Sony now has only 2 exclusives left.
the incredible god of war franchise and Uncharted.
how did this happen in less than a span of 8 years? how did the once godlike Sony lose their grip on their once Playstation ONLY franchises and most unsettling of all WHO IS NEXT TO DEFECT?
i have both systems and i cant IMAGINE microsoft loosing Halo. Microsoft used SHOCK AND AWE at this years E 3 and only a jaded drone wouldnt be impressed.
the motion controller was insane. ALAN WAKE ACTUALLY EXISTS..NO f@#ing way.
Splinter cell conviction isnt vapor ware and not one but 2 Halos are on the way as well as exclusive DLC for Grand theft auto. Microsoft threw so many punches they didnt even have time for an announcement on Mass Effect 2 or Bioshock 2.
is this company for real, why are they hitting THIS HARD?
also FORZA 3 looked so insane my buddy and i called B.S and said CGI SHAKANERY. that was until IGN posted the screen shots, guess what, their REAL.
the Motion controler was the sickest thing ive ever seen in my 27 years as a gamer, theres NO WAY that thing was real, then the girl came out and demoed it.
Microsofts E3 was insane. i have no doubt Sony will deliver but holy crap Microsoft ease up a little.
MGS ON 360,,,,you could have heard the Sony drones heads explode in UNISON on that one.
Ya know....Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by solidfenix
Theres a difference between loyalty and just being a douchebag. I can understand wanting to support your system. Thats cool, but this whole nanana boo boo stuff is lame. Mainly because Microsoft didnt take away nothing from anybody. The game is shared now and people who bought MGS 4 and all the other MGS games on a Sony Console are probably gonna do the same for this one. It'll probably sell just as well as MGS4 did for it. This is mainly for those who just dont want a PS3. Which is fine. Whatever. I have both and besides online gameplay I think the PS3 is slighty superior in terms of hardware and exclusives. I get it. Its real expensive. Which is the main reason it doesn't sell, but its definetly worth it once you have one. Especially if you can find one that has backwards compatibilty like mine and install a 300GB harddrive. Its not to say I dont love my 360 either. I pay homage to both systems outta respect for my favorite characters on each one. Solid Snake and Marcus Fenix. But on a real note. You X-bots onlys are getting a Raiden game......Even I, a HUUUUUUGE Metal Gear fan, was like....Whoop tee doo. I have no Idea what the games about or even how its gonna play, but this is the first time I was left pretty disappointed at the annoucement of a new MGS. I'm not a huge fan of his. I think he's a better side character then a spotlight character. But you can take what you can right? Who knows? Maybe once more stuff is shown about the game, I'll change my tune. Plus that Big Boss Pic hasent been explain yet.....and I'm betting tomorrow....Sony Fans are gonna have a lot to smile about. Not just because of Metal Gear, but because of all the other games coming down the pipe and to me thats whats its all about. The Games. Not motion crap or twitter or Face book........sign*....seriously Microsoft I'm a fan but goddamn that was lame.
Its about time!Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by Master_Chief_Wiggum
I patiently awaited a Metal Gear Solid 4: Subsistence, or something along those lines, for the Xbox 360, but I am much more excited for a completely new Metal Gear for the 360. This franchise was the only one missing from the console, and im glad Kojima finally came to his senses and brought it to the 360. I hope we see more action style than movie based gameplay, which seems to be the latest word. With regards to Raiden: maybe there will be a MGS2 twist where you switch characters after the first level. There was some teasing of Big Boss! Oh well, who knows...cant wait to see more!
Metal Gear Solid is now on Xbox 360 - Action Style!Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by General_Gamer
Metal Gear Solid: Rising for Xbox 360 has already made a lot of people happy.
I know two people who are big fans of the Metal Gear Solid franchise. They have said they are going to sell their PS3 since they have already beaten MGS4, and there is no point in keeping it since MGS4 has virtually no replay value.
Metal Gear Solid was the one and only big-name franchise from third-parties that was missing from Xbox 360.
I'm excited because Metal Gear Solid: Rising focuses much more on action-style gameplay. I was not a fan of the movie-style gameplay (or should I say movieplay) in MGS4. The 90 minute cinema scenes were not cool, since they were boring and had terrible voice acting.
The other cool thing about Metal Gear Solid: Rising is that the looooooooooong and boring loading "installs" found in MGS4 on the PS3 will not be a part of Metal Gear Solid: Rising on the Xbox 360, since the Xbox 360 transfers data at 16MB per second, compared to only 9MB per second for PS3.
off topic much?Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by abercrombieco2
what does ps3 errors or xbox 360 errors have anything to do with this topic?
Errors are caused on PS3 with Firmware ProblemsPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by General_Gamer
Firmware Update 2.4 for the Playstation 3 ruined hundreds-of-thousands of Playstation 3 consoles, all because Sony was the company that messed up.
Sony did not include this type of error as something that was covered by the warranty. And Sony gave faulty technical support information that was so frustrating to people. I lost count of the number of times people had to reformat their hard drive on the PS3, all because of Sony's defective firmware updates for the PS3.
What was worse about the PS3 firmware problems is the way that Sony forced people to pay the shipping costs to send their PS3 console for repair. Once Sony had received all those "defective" consoles, Sony realized it was their firmware update (especially with Firmware Update 2.4) that was causing all the problems. But Sony was not willing to give people their money back for the mistakes caused by Sony's engineers.
I like the way Microsoft gave the money back to people who paid for repair costs for Xbox 360. I like the way Microsoft has extended the Xbox 360 warranty to three full years. This cost Microsoft $1 Billion dollars, but Microsoft was willing to do it because they acknowledged the early mistakes of the "Xenon" model console. Microsoft offered great technical service. Everyone I know who had a problem with an early Xenon model console got their system back in less than two weeks.
Thankfully Microsoft fixed all of the potential defects in the Xbox 360 with the "Falcon" model console that launched in 2007.
What's even better is that Microsoft has redesigned a new model of Xbox 360, called the "Jasper" that has been available since 2008. The Jasper keeps the great design of the Falcon, but it goes a step further by reducing the amount of power consumed by the console, and the DVD drive makes even less noise. When you go to a store and buy an Xbox 360, you are buying a great console that offers the biggest and best library of games, the most features, the biggest and best movie library, great technical service, and the best warranty.
I'm not a fanboy...I'm just someone who tells the truth and looks at things from both point of view. Do I want to waste $35 on a Blu-ray disc, or would I rather watch a 1080p download on my Xbox 360 at any time. I remember how the PS3 fans of MGS4 used to say "on Xbox 360 you will have to swap discs." Well, I don't like the idea of swapping movie discs on Blu-ray...I like the idea of using Microsoft's Full 1080p download system for movies a lot more!
jexkjy5Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by JonDee
well u dont have to start from the very bottom yes.. but the way the game is structure with the engine they used was said to not work with the 360. so in some ways they have to start over with a diffrent engine the have to start a lot of shit over again.
and i never said this game was exclusive i actually stated that the VP of xbox even said its not exclusive.
first of allPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by abercrombieco2
its funny watching every one fight over consoles , pretty dumb imo. since i own 360 and a ps3 i get the bset games for each console anyways. it would be intresting to see if there are 2 metal gear games for the ps3 and 360 , this one has raiden , and maybe a ps3 game involving big boss instead? there will be somthing involving big boss and ps3/psp. but a ninja metal gear game will be awosme ps3 360 , who cares just play the games and enjoy them. its not like you are making any money from 360 or ps3 sales , so stop acting like you own 100,000 shares in ms or sony.
Disc Read errorPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by BoomerKid
I know, It happened to me...genius.
Seriously though--look, I get it, MS effed up and Sony did with the PS2. But fanboys, love to just call that crap out when this story, specifically, has no relevance to the rrod. They just use the rrod and act like Sony's ass is all shiny like Mr. Clean's head. When the fact is both companies had there share of screw ups in hardware.
I'm not excusing MS for their stupid decisions. People have a right to be mad, but what does this story have to do with people talkin crap about hardware?
Sony's PS3 is rock solid hardware, no question. I never worry about that thing crapping out on me. I had a disc read error on one 360 and MS fixed it and when the new machine they sent me crapped out with a bad video port...I sucked it up and bought an elite because they wanted $100. But just like when my PS2 died I bought a fresh one (with the new chipset) because I love games.
All that said, every company who makes a console SHOULD make it rock solid. PS3 is there. I have no complaints. tsk tsk MS --maybe they'll learn with the next Xbox...720?
Night gents.
BoomerkidPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by mysteriousgamer
Yes, it's all about the games--you're right.
But, when you can't play those games because your system just broke, well, you see my point. A console should not break after 1 year of use, no matter how many moving parts it has. In the PC world, it's called burn-in--a process where you run the CPU/GPU and memory to their limits to expose any flaws. This is something Microsoft should have done with each and every 360 sold. But they didn't.
People get pissed about RRODs, and why shouldn't they? They have every right to be mad. And by the way, genius--The 360 has been notorious for disc read errors too.
....Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by jexkjy5
If this game was exclusive for the 360 don't you think Microsoft would be bragging their asses off about it instead of just saying its on the 360.
@ JonDee if a game is originally exclusive and then goes multiplatform they DO NOT have to design it from the ground up. If you know you don't know anything why even bother spouting off your retarded guesses.
PS2 was a crappy machinePosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by BoomerKid
For all this talk about 360 RROD and PS3 is better yada yada yada. Lets not forget that the PS2 was anasty little piece of hardware. Disc Read error. Who didn't crack that bitch open to mess with the laser lens? I had mine for less than a year when that disc read error showed up. This was circa 2003 (i think). Anyway, can we all get past this hardware is faulty gig? Really? Because even though my ps2 broke, I went out and bought another one for one reason (the slim).....Games. I could have said the Dreamcast or Gamecube never breaks its so superior...but I didn't....love that dreamcast though. but really guys let it go. And lets focus on the games.
that said...I can't wait. Most MGS games have rocked my world. Except for 4. 3 was my fav...and 2 is a guilty pleasure....i know right? Anyway, I'm pumped can't wait to see whats coming tomorrow at E3.
BTW. I have all 3 systems. No fanboy here.
Mavr¥kPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by JonDee
well today is microsoft's day for E3. the big boss thing possibly be for portable ops 2 on psp go. mgs4 is on a disc thats hold a lot more info. from what i hear tho bluray is all uncompressed information? so regardless it can be done. look at ff13 if they can do it with that then sure. the only diffrence with mgs4 is the game was made strickly for ps3. the installing thing does more than u think it does for the game. and the engine they used i think doesnt work at all for 360 from what ive heard. so to make mgs4 for 360 the would have to remake it from scratch or some shit like that. again this is all shit i read. i know nothing about all that technical shit. i just play the games. hahaha
yea XDPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by JonDee
after a while i realized that the system doesnt make the game. so yea, if it does to multi, it will be the same game. im just curious when this takes place and if thats actually the raiden we know or a new raiden. hard to say if its a prequel to mgs4 or if its something totally new. x.x
UmmmmmPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by Mavr¥k
MGS4 on Blu-Ray was 45GB and Xbox has standard size DVDs.... How the hell are they gonna fit it on one of them?! I no its not MGS4 but it can't be THAT stripped down, this is Hideo 'Hollywood Film' Kojima we are talking about....
And no mention of the 'Big Boss' character so maybe PS3 get the proper snake and Xbox guys get the second-best guy...
Anyways even tho its a dinosaur in tech-terms guess I'll have 2 eat my humble pie and buy a Xbox now
Oh, Make No Mistake.Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by serialman
I'm excited about it, too. As cool as Snake is, his story's done; let's see if Raiden can truly be a character we want to play as. And even before typing the stuff I typed, I figured --nay, hoped-- that it would go multiplatform because, honestly, why would you want a good game to have a limited fanbase?
The problem is that some people are just too stupid to get a joke.
There is already confirmation...Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by demonknightinuyasha
that MGS:R is multiplat over at G4 Click Here
I think the confusion came in because Shappert(sp?) said that everything from that point on was only on 360. I figured (and maybe they also figured) that it would have been obvious because if it was exclusive they would have said it and really put emphasis on it.
Personally I feel 3rd party exclusives should just end entirely. But if that happened, then what would the poor dumbass fanboys go on about? Also if a game is still coming out on the PS3, Sony didn't really "lose" the game did they? I really don't see where the obsession comes from of people gloating about other people not being able to play a game.
As far as the game itself, I am really excited for this. As I mentioned in my blog about the press conference overall, this really is a win/win situation. Kojima get's to do something that's not "just another metal gear" while the world gets another game in the MGS universe. And after MGS4 who didn't want to play as Raiden? Granted I would also like to see Kojima doing something not Metal Gear related at all as well.

i guess thats all u can really say since u know im right. im not saying for sure its goin on ps3. its possible sure. also possible that it might not go to ps3. doesnt matter to me. but im not going "zomg ps3 never geeeeeeeetz teh raiden!!!"
luckily i have both 360 and ps3. i honestly think imma get it for 360 just for the fact that it might get on it first.
but dont get mad at me for opening ur eyes to what u are hahahaha
not a fanboy there r facts.Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by JonDee
ok i have both systems but fyi someone posted a link here and it lead to an interview with XBOX VICE PRESIDENT and he himself said its not going to be exclusive. then again.. the said a lot of things that they then contradicted later on, but we will just have to wait and see. either way i have no problem cuz i can play it regardless hahaha. and dont call people fanboys wen u sit there and say "its never going to ps3" just makes u look like a 360 fanboy. no offense.
Lightning Bolt ActionPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by tjkjr
is a really stupid tagline. However, I will be purchasing this as soon as it is released. I'm glad Metal Gear can be shared with the multitude of 360 owners who have not played Metal Gear Solid 4 or any of the previous installments before.

Don't see what the big deal is...Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by Super_Joe_85
For one it was pretty much a given that KojiPro's next game would go multi-platform. MGS Rising is very likely also going to the PS3 as well or a "big boss" variant as some people have mentioned that may or may not connect with the PSP version that has already been touched upon. Secondly it's more than likely that this game will turn out to be pretty damn good, Kojima is more than capable of putting together hardcore action games just look at Z.O.E. especially the 2nd Runner.
@TenAkumaPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by gaming_since_the_nes
I open it up every once in a while and clean it. Very easy to do and it's been running problem free for a long time. I feel bad for those people that had to send it in over three times! Needless to say, I won't be buying the first wave of MS's next console.
I'm taking a wait and see...Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by San_Andreas
...to see if this game will be as good as the regular MGS games or if it will be a cash-in "gaiden" game whose biggest claim to fame is having the Metal Gear name on the 360. Spinoffs have had decidedly mixed results. Some of them are great (FF Tactics, Crisis Core, and probably MW2), but I hated Halo Wars, and MGS has had a mixed track record with spinoffs so far.
Kojima should have given Z.O.E. to the 360 instead.
BTW, the 360 still has an unacceptable failure rate, only it's coming from the E74 error (failure in the A/V hardware) instead of the three red rings. Microsoft ended up having to extend their 3-year warranty to cover the E74 as well, to forestall another class-action suit. Mine was a newer 360 that got fucked up by the E74 in December, and Microsoft wanted to charge me $100 + tax to fix it. Fucking bastards.

@TenAkumaPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by Masta_C
You're right about the exclusives I mentioned being mostly DLC (although I did mention Splinter Cell). I thought mentioning Halo would be like Nintendo saying "well only we have Mario." And my point of bringing up the DLC thing is that is where gaming is going. Even if a game is on all consoles, it says alot about the game makers opinion of the systems when only one is given the DLC. Don't get me wrong I am not an XBox fanboy (I am usually on the Nintendo boards defending it against the haters) and I owned the PS and PS2...which brings me to my technophobia.
You are right about that. I hated switching from cassettes to CDs and VHS to DVD, but it is just because I don't get what is so much better about better sound or better visuals. Well ok that sounds dumb I know, but really when I watch a DVD I don't suddenly see all this stuff that I never saw on VHS. Small details yes, but nothing that adds to the experience. It is the same with cell phones. I take whatever phone they give me for free because it already does what I need it to do. Yes I will buy the next Wii or XBox or even Playstation, but not if it is filled with crap that does not serve my game experience and just costs me more. I wouldn't be opposed to multiple versions, like a PS4 that only has the features for gaming for $300, or a version that comes with a built in vacuum for $600 for people who just really need a vacuum.

I don't know where you get this skinny/frail thing from. He looks much more physically capable than Nathan Drake (not knocking him or anything...). I guess you think that the guy has to be either fat or Incredible Hulk-esque to be a fictional hero. And that "America" comment was quite hilarious. We are the FATTEST nation... Pound-for-pound, Russia's got some tough motherfuckers...
And no, he doesn't have facial hair. Could be because he's cybernetic?
@TenAkumaPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by gaming_since_the_nes
I completely agree with you. If you can, you really should own both systems. I love my 360, but I'm a fan of good games and I want to play Uncharted and it's sequel, Twisted Metal (you know it's coming), Ratchet and Clank, Killzone 2...um...there are more...God, I can't think straight. I think Jonesy4778's fanboy idiocy is rubbing off on me.....well, you get the point! I wish my roommate hadn't sold his PS3.

Whoah, you need to calm down so you can actually make sense! Would you mind re-typing your first sentence so it actually makes sense? Lay off the Monster energy drinks.
"The ps3 broke on your co-worker? Bad luck but guess what? Every system KNOWN TO MAN, SINCE THE BEGINNING OF VIDEO GAMES has had at least a few hundred consoles that didn't work due to factory defects and other naturally occuring problems in the production process."
Um, did you actually analyze what I wrote? If you did then you would see that you're actually bitching at me AND restating what I wrote! Congratulations my friend, you are an idiot!
Microsoft may not have grown a pair and designed a system that wouldn't break, but they did foot the bill so I didn't have to pay for it to be repaired when it broke down on me. What did the Sony representative tell my co-worker? That the system is a few years old. As in it's probably time you buy a new one. Needless to say, he yelled a few expletives and was trasferred to a supervisor.
Oh, and why the fuck would I want to connect wirelessly to my router that sits next to my entertainment center? lol
You see, you got the impression that I'm a MS fanboy, but really, I'm not. In fact, I want a PS3, but I won't buy one until they drop the price on it. You on the other hand have Sony's dick so far up your ass it's ramming your brain and not allowing you to think properly enough to make any sense.

...and I guess the others prefer the "manly men"? Really, who has a preference? I'll be the first to agree that it's ridiculous having heroes in games who have a true metrosexual thing going on. I'm talking about accessories, shaved chest, whiny/effeminate, etc. But if the dude's face is shaved, so what? Most military and government HAVE TO SHAVE. There's no pressure for a guy to have a beard or 5:00 shadow to prove that he's a man. I think a lot of the insecurities come from people who are not comfortable with themselves, so they dream that they are the characters they play. Some of my favorite movies have mental cases, unattractive and despicable people for lead characters. It's really how the characters mesh with their surroundings. Different people like different types of characters, anyway. So what's the big deal?
@TenAkumaPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by Masta_C
I am joking as well, but you missed the point. It is not about being homo-phobic. The only thing I was saying is that it is not realistic to have a skinny guy play the hero of a planet. Ok maybe if he is a cyborg, but even then... Did you see Swazeneger as the terminator? Even he got his butt kicked. And I am not saying Raiden is 135 pounds, I'm saying that I am, and I speak for all skinny dudes out there when I say that we are the last ones you want saving the world. I get tired reading the newspaper.

i know kojima's real plan...Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by JonDee
ok now.. mgs:rising looks to be a prequel to mgs4 right.. mgs4 obviously will never go to 360 due to the stuff used to make the game, not to mention the install support that is done by the ps3 and how mgs4 utilizes it. think of this. now most of the people that have a 360 and never got to play mgs4 mostlikely played the other mgs games as well as the old school mg games. now seeing as this is going to be a prequel to mgs4 maybe kojima wants to slap it on the 360 FIRST to give u guys a taste of whats to come along in the story of mgs4. with the only way to play it is to either buy a ps3 or go to a friend's house and play it there. now this is just bunch of theory n what not but yea. some people may force themselfs to finish what is left to be a great story and go buy a ps3. XD hahha say what u want about what i said. i think too much about shit so yea. =]

Right the idiot consumer who says hey I can get an Xbox 360 for $350, have access to almost every game that is on PS3 and be able to watch my 100's of DVDs that I have purchased. As compared to the one who says Hey I can buy a $600 PS3 be able to play almost every game that is on XBox 360 and watch a selection of the 100's of DVDs I've bought, and go repurchase the ones that are not compatible for twice as much.
The part of them blowing up was not meant as an attack. I knew what you meant, I was just playing. That being said however, I have heard from people all these stories about the red-ring, yet I have never met anyone (in person, not a faceless person online) who has suffered the red-ring of death. Mine is 3 years now, and I have a buddy who got his the day it came out. Still works fine.
And for exclusives other than this new MGS, how about: Fallout 3 DLC, Call of Duty: MW2 DLC, Splinter Cell: Conviction, GTA:Lost and Damned, Mass Effect 2. I even hear that Killzone will be the next game to jump ship. (No I am kidding again.)

Now before you tell everyone I'm an Xbox fanboy, I'll do it first. I'm an Xbox fanboy and I'm OK with that. It is the best after all.
@gaming since the nesPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by Jonesy4778
Just you sig should mean you know that the 360 is trash.I mean, all my old nes's still work.
The ps3 broke on your co-worker? Bad luck but guess what? Every system KNOWN TO MAN, SINCE THE BEGINNING OF VIDEO GAMES has had at least a few hundred consoles that didn't work due to factory defects and other naturally occuring problems in the production process.
That is NOT what is occuring with the 360. The 360 has just been shoddily designed and, instead of MICROSOFT growing a pair and actually making a system I can get behind (ie, one that isn't inherently EFFIN BROKEN), they'll continue to make the same broken crap because idiots like YOU wont admit the truth: that you have been bamboozled. You would apparently rather just keep diggin the hole deeper, accumulating more and more games that you WONT be able to play in the future instead of boycotting this shoddy buisness that microsoft is pretty much known for. Oh, and lets have fun busting out $200+ for wireless and an hd...ah ha ha, hardware prices from almost 8 years ago. Thanks microsoft.
Personal Note: Once Microsoft makes a console that doesn't unsolder itself, I'll legitimately have no complaints. The game library is awesome, it just has no longevity without a solid console and thus, no long term worth. Accept it or complain to microsoft. I have chosen the latter.
If..Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by EvolvingTenken
If this is an exclusive to the 360 and all Sony gets is a PSP game, I give up on my PS3. No one really cares about a PSP Metal Gear game. They are a nice side dish, but pale in comparison to the real deal.
All I know is after this, Sony better be dropping way bigger bombs other than a weak PSP redesign and a slim PS3.

Yeah I'm homophobic....that totally why I don't care for Raiden. It makes pefect sense right? It couldn't be because he just whined through the whole 2nd game and looks like a girl and just plain isnt my type protaganist. Its because I hates the gays. Good job. Ya got me. He's a good side character. He was way better in MGS4 then MGS2 and I actually got kinda sad when I thought He was killed by being crushed by Outer Haven......Happy? Now Can I have my GLAD merit badge for tolerance.

What is so hard for people who love pretty boy protagonists to understand that it has nothing to do with homophobia? Maybe I don't find it believable that a skinny dude with a faux-hawk and leather pants is going to save the world from an army of giant Mecha-bears or whatever. Actually forget the hair and clothing, NO SKINNY DUDE WILL EVER SAVE THE EARTH FROM ANYTHING. Which means the part about being overweight is not such a bad thing because Americans will be the only ones strong enough to save the world. And no I am not jealous of the skinny guys. As a 28 year old male that weighs in at 135 lbs, I will be the first to admit, that skinny pretty boys are about as tough as kittens with their claws removed.

Oh and thanks for nit-picking me saying that 360's blow-up when i went into detail outlining EXACTLY why the red-ring occurs. OBVIOUSLY, im trying to spread bad pr, even though the official failure rate for 360's is over 85%. That's not bad pr, that's just bad buisness.

Why do people think that PS3's are indestructibe? Or in the words of Homer, un-blow-up-able? My co-worker is on his fourth one. Granted, it is far more common for a 360 to break down, but seriously, everyone needs to grow a pair. It seems like all fanboys' manhood is put in question whenever something is announced for the competing system. This is a blow to the Sony camp no matter how you see it. MS now has all Sony's major third-party franchises on their system and Sony has none of MS's. It seems like all the Sony fanboys can do now is attack the 360 as a videogame machine in order to downplay the fact that they've just been slapped by their savior, Hideo Kojima. Don't worry my testicle-less fellow gamers, I am sure that he will announce something new for PS3 or that MGSR is coming to PS3 also. Although judging by some of the comments I've read, you guys don't want MGSR on your system. Either that or you'll prove to be a bunch of hypocrites.
@John DeePosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by Jonesy4778
Its not dust that kills the 360, its the design of the console itself.
Look at the bottom of the 360. You see how there is a slight upward arc instead of a flat surface? WELL, since there's so much crazy tech smashed into the little box, the heat inside of the 360 builds up fast and actually manages to get so friggin hot that it starts to bend the motherboard over the arc of the console. Now, at the apex of the bend is RIGHT where the graphics processor unit sits so, if you play your system for too long, the gpu actually UNSOLDERS itself from the mother board. The new mother board and gpu chips don't stop this from occurring. Neither do the repairs from microsoft (I've seen pics of systems sent back with just 4-5 more heat sinks tossed in the console).
The only way microsoft can fix this problem is to
A) Completely redesign the system itself
B) Make D@MN sure that the next xbox is backwards compatible
Otherwise, there are gonna be a LOT of pissed off 360 owners with thousands upon thousands of dollars worth of games that are useless due to Microsoft being a-holes and consumers being mindless retards.
@ eksMANPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by BlazingAero
The link that you posted says absolutely nothing about the game not being an Xbox 360 exclusive. Nowhere is there any word about it being on PS3 yet. It could be announced later, but for now, there's no need to spin the info.

Actually I haven't heard of one case of an XBox 360 (or any system ever) blowing up. That would be bad for PR. Kinda like how watching all the exclusives coming out for XBox 360 over the PS3 is bad for PR. Burn.

the meat:"MGS: Rising won't be exclusive to 360. If it is a prequel it won't really make sense for all the 360 people who never got a chance to play MGS4. With that said, I hope they do port MGS4 over to 360, because it was a really awesome game that everyone should get to play! It's not very practical to make people buy a system for one game, and we all make our choices of which consoles to buy based on our own individual tastes. There's really no point in flaming people because of the systems they own."
First of all, you need to play all the other metal gears to even START to enjoy mgs4 (or at least the solids). You know how I know? Because, when it was released on the ps3, me working at a video game store, I watched hundreds of people buy the game, touting it as a THE ps3 system seller, getting their fanboy nuts in a bunch over it, only to return it the next day because of "too many cutscenes." I just wanted to smack them and be all like "Did you even PLAY the other games? Do you even have a brain in your head or just a wad of cash burning a hole in your pocket? KNOW WHAT YOU'RE BUYING BEFORE YOU EFFIN BUY IT!!!!"
Seriously, if 360 owners just hop into mgs4 without any backstory from mgs1-3, they wont get the point of the game and will probably bag on it. Hard.
MGS4 isn't a game for everyone. It is a game for Metal Gear/Kojima fans, PERIOD.

Soo, lemme get this straight...you'd be cool with Raiden, as long as he was hairy? Facial hair usually isn't something that CYBORG'S grow, anyways. Oh, and if you pay attention to mgs2, Raiden's "feathered hair" is just a wig. Apparently, he's as bald as a cueball.

It doesn't REALLY suck for anyone aside for people who SOMEHOW can't accept that the xbox 360 is a piece of trash that would rather bleed you dry of money than make a console that won't blow up. The game itself wont suffer though. Despite the 360 blowing up all the time, it's still a mighty powerful console. Aside from devs talking specs out their @sses, i doubt, if a dedicated development team tried their hardest, they could definitely pull off ps3 calibur graphics and gaming on the 360. I just can't stand buying games for a console that wont work less than 5 years from now. I buy my games for life, not for a week and, unless Microsoft fixes their system, every multi-platform game that comes out is being bought for the ps3 so I can actually PLAY THEM later on in life if I want to.

Forgive me for calling you a shithead. When Metal Gear was announced for the IPhone a while back instead of the 360 I was more than a little disappointed. Oh well, all is forgiven and I'll be chipping in my 59.99 + tax when this comes out on the 360 since it looks like there is some new content that wasn't in MGS4 for PS3. Hopefully they can tweak the controls a bit more. Yessssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
P.S. The PS3 and 360 are ACTUALLY CLOSE IN PERFORMANCE. The biggest difference is betweeen storage capacity of a blu-ray disc and dvd. Just wanted to point this out for those who think the game will be severely crippled to work on 360.The majority of storage on MGS4 was likely used to store full motion video which there was a lot of in MGS4. So this may end up being what gets cut back some. Not a big loss imho.
yea thats true.Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by JonDee
@ TenAkuma yea.. thats very true about porting a 360 game to ps3... and about the fanboy stuff ur right. one thing everyone needs to really focus on is the game.. people r saying 360 this ps3 that. all i care about is the game. if it gets announced for ps3 ill probably wait to get it for ps3. if not ill get it for 360 all i care about is how this ties in with the main story, the gameplay and all that. whatever system its on i could care less cuz a good game is a good game regardless of what system its on.

I think he means back home because MSX was a microsoft lead initiative in Japan for stanardized computing. So if you wanted to look at it one way, you COULD say MG started on a MS platform, but that is to say that all PC games are MS games just because they have the majority market share of PC OS's.

Everyone deserves to play a great franchise like the Metal Gear franchise. If it is exclusive I'll buy it for my 360, if not, I'll most likely play it for my PS3, because I'm so used to the Metal Gear franchise being on a Sony system. I don't think Kojima for a second would turn his back on his Sony fans, he wants to make everyone happy, expect another announcement tomorrow.
Well..Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by solidfenix
It wasnt MGS4. Oh well. I kinda saw it coming. Kojima was probably getting big pressure from Konami to make an X-box game. I'm still buying it for the PS3. They still gotta release info about this Big Boss stuff too.But all in all The conference it self wasnt great. Sonys probably not gonna have a hard time toping this. I was excited and now I'm left with feeling of....thats it? No Mass Effect 2. Well I can't wait until tomorrow....God of War 3, Uncharted 2, Grand Turismo, New Metal Gear, and I hear maybe a Remake a FF7....which I hope they do because I'm really tired of hearing people bitch about that. The 360 MGS crying is over. Let shut these Clowns up too. sony has a lot to lose if they dont bring there "A" game and they know it.....I just thought Microsoft would of made it harder for them to do. Twitter, Facebook, Motion crap....fail. On the bright side Splinter Cell FTW!!!
besides..Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by JonDee
we've seen some games go from 360 to ps3.. ex:bioshock. if anything its a bit better to start with the 360 anyway. that way the same info can just go on the bluray disc just uncompressed. so yea.. it would make sense to multi it. not only for more profit but for the fanbase also. although i might have said to go buy a 360. a lot of people dislike it so much that they would never do such a thing x.x
Well microsoft did pretty well.Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by Gixman
I was surprised at the announcements. Although everyone knew Forza 3,splinter cell conviction and alan wake was gonna be there i never thought a metal gear game would be on the 360...but it happend. but this is only the beginnin. there will be more games shown at E3 for all the major consoles.
BesidesPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by Jonesy4778
Does anyoine remember when the 360 crew were all complaining about mgs4 not being on the system and Kojima said that if they had tried to make the game multi-platform from the beginning, then it might have been possible to have a 360 mgs4 but, as it stood, they would have had to remake the game from the ground up for it to work on microsoft's green box? Do you REALLY think Kojima would make the same mistake twice, this time burning the ps3 owners, thus making EVERYONE hate him (AND cutting profits in half once again)? No way. I can almost guarantee that they had this badboy's been in development for multi-platform since the first complaint that mgs4 wasn't coming to 360, just to avoid this kind of stupidity.

Does the PS3 have anything left?Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by stayflytil'idie
Hmm, God of War 3, Uncharted 2, Final Fantasy 13vs., Ratchet and Clank, Heavy Rain, Gran Turismo 5, MAG....I think the PS3 is good.
sweetPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by At0mic_Iguana
Love the PS3, just can't afford to get one, love my 360 more, and all you idiots that keep going back and forth saying that each system doesn't have the exclusive titles blah blah... shut up. They both have exclusive titles and they're all pretty good. Let us not forget that Wii has tons of exclusive titles more than 360/ps3 together, course most of them suck... but the good ones rock... anyway enough random thoughts.
I'm really excited for MGS on 360, doesn't matter if its on PS3 as well, i get to play MGS. It'd be sweet if it made some functionality of using Natal. Pushing a button to open inventory is sooo played out, now you can just say, open inventory... amusing for the first 5 min.
Anyways, yay for MGS and yay for E3

if u payed attention to detail the eye color of the cyborg was diffrent from raiden's but similar to sunny's. also the barcode is tattooed on this person's forhead and has some kinda hole stuff. raiden had the barcode on his helmet thing and his face was clean of any kinda thing. sunny ninja? like mother like daughter??? hahaha i dont know but we will have to wait and see XD

Yeah dude, you totally know more than every video game news site on the net which seem to NOT KNOW whether or not this game is exclusive. Like someone else already mentioned (not that you seemed to bother to read, tard) Left 4 Dead 2 was also during the supposed "exclusive" portion of the microsoft show but this is also coming out for pc, as in NOT EXCLUSIVE. No one knows for sure yet so maybe you can shut your stupid fanboy mouth. You just sound dumb but not as dumb as every microsoft fanboy that, 8 years from now, when 360's are no longer produced/repaired, will have about 100 to 400 games without a console to play it on because you idiots never focused on what really mattered. A SYSTEM THAT DOESN'T EFFIN BREAK 85-90% OF THE TIME!!!
fanboy this fanboy that x.xPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by JonDee
ok im not a fanboy or anyhing i have both systems. but honestly.. stop arguing about exclusivity or not.. it is what it is right now just wait and see if he announces it for ps3 later.. and yes that nier game SE is making.. it was announced earlier too today, but thats a ps3 game also so yes, its very possible for mgs:r to be put on ps3. just stop with fanboy this and fanboy that.. if u accuse someone of being a fanboy and bashing on them for it.. then u are one also.
Prequel?Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by projectrunaway
I bet MGS: Rising is a prequel to MGS4 seems cool that its gonna be Raiden in the staring role instead of Snake. When I saw Kojima I thought MGS4 was getting ported to 360 only cause MGS4 got introduced into the Greatest Hits lineup this month for $30.

BRING GOD OF WAR NEXT. FRIG PS3 We WANT GOD OF WAR!!!!!
Not exclusivePosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by mccloud2280
The game was not stated to be exclusive. Go back and watch it. He was saying all the games they just annouced were exclusive. But that his system was missing an important franchise. He then said that the MGS franchise was finally gonna come to the 360. No where did they say the game MGS Raising was Exclusive to the 360. You fanboys are laughable.
ha ha ha very...........Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by bigbrother86
funny, i bet that the ps3 is going to get it too but this is the Microsoft press conference, they're not going to say "oh yes and our good friend Sony is going to get it too" and i read a comment that got me mad because it said that the ps3 didn't have anything left, just to let you know that the 3shitty is the one that doesn't have anything, does the 3shitty has Uncharted 2, Heavy Rain, Ratchet and Clank A Crack In Time, Joker playable maps or God of War 3, no they have not, so SHUT UP YOU MORON.
mooPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by JonDee
yea besides.. if hes developing it for 360 now.. kojima doesnt like to waste time. i dont think he would go and remake the game on a bluray disc for ps3. i love ps3 n everything too, but people have to face reality and accept that things will be the way they are. if u were one of the people that loved kojima before and say F*** KOJIMA just cuz of this.. then u arent a real fan. if u were a mgs and/or kojima fanboy u would get up and buy a 360 right now. hahaha. consoles r expensive yes, but get a job and save up some cash and get one.

I stated that metal gear was coming to the 360 and everyone doubted me. I knew it. Better Be Good Too
Cool, 360 owners finally get some MGS lovin'Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by Reaktorleak89
No mention of exclusivity, so I guess it's multiplatform too. Konami made most of their money off PS3 last year, so it would only make sense to do so.
they said every game announced after this point is Xbox Exclusive...Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by Final_Spart4n
so why are you confusing yourself, this game is xbox exclusive. stop trying to hang on to sony's past success fanboys. times are changing.
xbox has mgs but not mgs4Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by JonDee
umm 360 doesnt have everything.. it doesnt have mgs4.. which concludes the whole series.. this rising thing is just a way to market mgs more.. i wouldnt really mind not playing it as much as it doesnt seem to be a serious part of the mgs story. either way it looks interesting. with how the teaser site looks now with a SUNNY sky.. id say its wen raiden goes to save sunny.. if not. its just a random game kojima is making. hahaaha
Shouldn't it just be Metal Gear: RisingPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by ThievingJacob
There's no Solid in it anymore
Great news...Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by 1337edrick
I'm glad that my 360 brother's will finally get to play MGS in some form... hopefully this doesn't mean that mgs4 to the 360 is out of the question now...

Fuck Yes!!!! Fuck Yes!!!!!
Hehe...Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by Thanos_of_MW
It was going to happen sooner or later. In the current economy Konami can't afford to release a game for a single platform. While I enjoyed MGS4 in my PS3, I rather see MGS going crossplatform. The series is just to good to keep half the gamer population missing out. Exclusives are going to be released by the console's development houses as we see from the current trend.
I hated Raiden in MGS2, but he became a badass in 4. Wouldn't mind playing a Raiden MGS (as long as they keep him a cyborg ninja!) Sad to see Snake go, but they have to continue with the story.
Metal Gear Solid: RisingPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by AstrayRaven
I couldn't believe that Kojima made that move. Frankly I'm a little disappointed, but Adam Sessler, Morgan Webb, and Kevin Pereira of X-Play and Attack of the Show, respectively, seem to believe that it's going to the PS3 as well. The faces of the countdowns have me confused though. Maybe this means that 360 gets the Raiden game and the PS3 will get the game starring "Big Boss"? What I really want to believe right now is that PS3 will get MGS:Rising and a new PSP Metal Gear, and exclusive to Sony's systems will be interconnectivity. I guess we'll find out after the countdown and/or at Sony's Press Conference tomorrow. Here's to hoping.
I doubt it is exclusivePosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by gravityman
But either way it will be awesome. I'm more interested in a big boss game and that part of the countdown hasn't been revealed yet. Hopefully it will be more than a portable ops two, but there still is no word of big boss yet.
hrmmPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by djsaiyan
They never actually stated explicitly that it was 360 exclusive.
They had also ended the 360 exclusive portion of the show (after showing Left 4 Dead 2, which is also coming to PC, nice exclusive)
IGN also has it listed as coming to PS3 as well (though where they got that info I have NO idea)
Based on their wording, I'd say it will most likely be multiplatform.
Awesome conference, high bar set for PS3 and Wii to follow...Posted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by Final_Spart4n
Hey I though Kojima was staying home in Japan...he must of felt compelled to show off his next Metal Gear on 360 to make the trip. Alan Wake, Splinter Cell, Modern Warfare, and FF XIII looks great. Halo looks dull for some reason though and I'm a big Halo fan. Well Sony and Nintendo has a lot of work ahead of them if they want to outdo the number 1 leading next gen system. Oh almost forgot...MILO looks cool but lets wait and see how developers incorporate it into our games and forms of entertainment. Grade: A
NOOOOPosted: Jun 01, 2009 12:00AM PST by KHfanboy01
Oh well, i was hoping for Metal Gear to be a PS-exclusive but hey at least PS3 still #4 but still that game will probally kick ass. Hopefully the PS3 will get a port of this some time soon

it has to be 360 exclusive, it was said at the the start of the show all titles were

12 Watermelon Recipes To Try This SummerYolanda Machado
One of my favorite things about summer is all the delicious summer fruit that gets stocked at the grocery store. Of all the summer fruits, watermelon is my absolute favorite.

Watermelon has excellent levels of Vitamin A, Vitamin B6, Vitamin C and is an excellent source of Potassium. It's a treat you never have to feel guilty about and one that biting into will release memories of summers past.
