Methinks most of that 49.7Gb is gonna be cutscenes.Saskwach said:Now I don't expect MGS4 to come to 360 and don't really care but I'm calling bullshit on 49.7 gigs. How big is Crysis? 12 GB. You cannot tell me that MGS4 is really, truly using that disc space and couldn't cut out a whole bunch of it. This sounds like one of those bullshit quotes Sony isn't against making for the sake of point scoring. When people ask why MGS4 won't be ported to 360? Oh, it's too massive. That's right this game is too big for that pathetic machine.Indigo_Dingo said:Dude, there is no way. Its just not possible. Here I'm talking about the information on the disc that is the game itself. An HD DVD disc can hold 30 gigs tops, right? Hideo maxed out the game at 49.7 gigs. Plus, Motion sensor plays a large role, or so the rumour bin would have us believe.
We may see Metal Gear Solid 5 on the 360, but thats only if Hideo wants to. And i'm just guessing, but I think he has a loyalty to Sony.
I think I speak for the Escapist when I say that we have had enough of your blatant console insults. This is a place for intelligent conversations with a theme of videogames, not for flinging waste at your hated companies. If you want to talk about the 360 please make it constructive and less "fanboylike"Indigo_Dingo said:Long enough for me to drink in the awe inspiring plot and cinematography that makes Hideo Kojima a revered Director and Writer.

Don't get me wrong, I loved MGS, and mostly enjoyed MGS2, but Jesus, the amount of cutscenes and lengthy Codec conversations drove me mad. Especially running through it the 4th or 5th time.
I have no doubt that it is gonna be one hell of a beautiful game, but how long are you going to be sat just watching it, getting blinded by bloom-lighting effects?
Grr. Stop rubbing it in. I've accepted that it won't be on the 360, but that doesn't mean I have to be happy about it. The only way I'll be able to get a PS3 is if I sell my 360. There is NO WAY, I am having all three consoles of a gen again, not at these prices.Indigo_Dingo said:Long enough for me to drink in the awe inspiring plot and cinematography that makes Hideo Kojima a revered Director and Writer.
Agreed. Thank you Fire for putting that so well. We get that you don't like the Xbox Indigo. The cheap shots aren't needed now.Fire Daemon said:I think I speak for the Escapist when I say that we have had enough of your blatant console insults.

There isnt going to be an MGS 4. Didnt MGS2 hit to you that Hideo wants to go on to do different things? He tried to alienate his fans with weird mindscrew, but that didnt work, so he's making one last magnum opus, then I'm sure he'll make it very, very clear that it's the END of the SERIES. Why cant folks just let a good series be laid to rest before it becomes tired and shitty? why must we bilk every game for all the sequils it's worth? Well, MGS will not be raped in this fashion.Indigo_Dingo said:We may see Metal Gear Solid 5 on the 360, but thats only if Hideo wants to. And i'm just guessing, but I think he has a loyalty to Sony.
