Last year we got Final Fantasy XIII, this year we got Metal Gear. Ah, it's a good day to own a 360.

Kojima never said anything about Solid Snake being in Metal Gear Rising. All of the PS3 fanboys are now getting defensive and bad mouthing this game because deep down inside, they are just bitter that a Metal Gear game is coming out on the 360. Who knows if it is exclusive? As much as we'd all love to see an exclusive Metal Gear game on the 360, I see it being on the PS3 shortly afterwards.

I was very impressed with Microsoft's conference. All the new motion sensor technology makes the Wii look obsolete now. Tomorrow is Sony's and Nintendo's conferences, who knows what's in store?

I am so happy that this game is coming out for the 360, now I can rub it in my PS3 friend's faces.

The game wasn't said to be exclusive, so it probably won't.

As long as I can play it, I couldn't care less which system it came out for.

Y'know, the game wasn't said to be exclusive. Don't everyone get ahead of yourselves.

Isn't it a good thing? I mean, this way more people can enjoy the MGS series.
That's completely wrong. I understand, though. You were thinking in a clear, rational, and sensible frame of mind. Fanboys don't do that. They have their console that they love and are fiercely loyal to. When they get a once-exclusive series on their system, or a big new exclusive of their own, they flaunt it, because of course it shows that their console is the best. Otherwise, the game wouldn't have come to it. Somehow, their allegiance to their console makes it their victory as well. However, when they lose a series, like the PS3 did with Final Fantasy, and now MGS, the fanboys will whine their hearts away, because it's a personal blow. They and their console are shown to be inferior. It's a pretty selfish way of thinking, actually.

This.

I never really got the mindset that if a game goes multi-platform it is now less entertaining nor the fact that it affects the console at all. In fact, with this generation, the word "exclusive," in most regards, means "timed exclusive." All MGS going to 360 means to me is that a series that I enjoyed with the rest of the list (except Assassin's Creed; that game was boring after you kill the 3rd or 4th target) are able to be played by other consoles. I bought my PS3 solely because I rather the first party titles compared to 360. That's about it. All other big name titles will go PC anyway.

What I think is ******** is exclusive DLC. This practice makes no sense whatsoever since all they are doing is hurting the consumer. There is no way I am buying a 360 just to play two new episodes on GTA4. So, why do it? In reality, it hurts everyone because the company dwindles their potential customer base, and with DLC being what it is, not a lot of people buy everything. PS3 has this with Arkham Asylum (where, for now, you can play as the Joker) and I think, Bioshock (where you have challenge rooms, but this may have gone to 360). 360 has this with GTA and Fallout 3, and I am sure others that I missed. The Fallout 3 one was considerably worse until it was announced that DLC will be available for PS3 in the Fall. I will never understand this practice whatsoever.

All I can say for 360 owners, is good thing Raiden is no longer the emblem of a failed replaced protagonist (he got cooler in MGS4).

It's about time the Xbox 360 got some new titles, if it is exclusive who cares. Do you know how many PS3 exclusive titles are or already have come out?
The list is immense.

The only advantage of a game NOT going multi-platform is the ability to optimize the code and fully base it around a specific console's architecture, meaning you'll get the best possible use of the console it was built from the ground up for.

Still, the fanboy feeding that exclusives do is not something I like.

I don't really care anymore if it's exclusive or not, I'm just happy that us 360 owners finally have a Metal Gear game on our console. (and yeah i know we had a metal gear game on the original xbox)

I have a question- how do we know Raiden is the protagonist/ main character?

I thought Raiden had blue eyes, and this was supposed to be Grey Fox in a prequel deal. Either way is cool though.

How about the PS3/360/Wii debate be placed somewhere else? If you don't have the console to play the game, it's your loss! Meh I'm not getting into that, we're here to talk about the game not the console it'll be on.
For the record it'll probably be on PS3 as much as Xbox 360. Although they are remaking a whole new engine for the game...I don't think they'll give it fully to Microsoft. So don't despair and stop complaining about the console =/

And about Wii's...they should come bundled with Xboxs or PS3s.

Okay, now that that's out of the way...

We saw Big Boss and Raiden loads in the video that was up before E3
I don't know if Big Boss was for Peace Walker only or if this means we might see him in MGSR

I'm guessing we're going to see what happened to Raiden between MGS2 and MGS4, something along those lines. What are your thoughts on this?
