Microsoft’s Shane Kim talked a bit about the possibility of Metal Gear Solid 4 heading to the Xbox 360 and not being a total PS3 exclusive.
He was questioned as to whether or not he believes that Metal Gear Solid 4 will be on the Xbox 360. "Well we’re certainly feeling bullish about third-party support in general. If you look at it from an economic standpoint, third parties have to support more than one platform. That’s their business model. Titles are just getting way too expensive. How much do you think that Konami is spending on MGS4? So economically they’ve got to leverage that the best that they can. So it’s really up to the first parties to create the content that’s going to differentiate the platforms and that’s where we think we have the competitive advantage."
