that was just mean.

It's even less convincing when the link actually has "April_Fools" in the title.

Calloway · 04-02-2007, 02:39 PM

it only showed me a partial link. As far as I know konami is still holding many projects deemed for ps3, up in the air for now.

Pity. So, Devil May Cry 4, going multiplatform. Thoughts? Comments? "I think it's up to each project, and the individual producer", he says. "If they want to take it multiplatform, they will". I'm going somewhere with this question, and he knows exactly where that is...

"But like I said, MGS4 is aimed for the movie theatre, it's aimed for the PS3, so the game's scenario and graphics need this theatre-type hardware. It's when a producer has a game that can work on the 'DVD level' that a game will go multiplatform", he says. Sorry kids. Your "OMGMGS4360" banners will have to come out another day.

Since we've opened up this can of worms, I may as well get his thoughts on it. Why, I ask, do you think this rumour simply refuses to go away? "Because 360 owners want it on 360, obviously", he quips.

Why so many discs? I've never played any of these games.

**Mwynn** · 04-10-2007, 09:13 AM

Because the game takes full advantage of the Blu-ray disc size.

Spacious Interior · 04-10-2007, 09:18 AM

Damn.... that's a lot of information. So how will the MSRP be affected by that?

**Mwynn** · 04-10-2007, 09:20 AM

It won't because it is not real. 360 will more than likely get a MGS game, it will probably not be MGS4 though.

Moonrider · 04-10-2007, 10:55 AM

Dude, that joke is so yesterday.
