Metal Gear Solid 4 released on PS3 - Will Xbox and Wii fall to Solid Snake?

"Metal Gear Solid 4 is finally here, having been released at midnight last week. But will the long awaited final installment of Solid Snake's story help sales of the Playstation 3 enough to allow it to catch up with the Xbox 360, and even start a run on the Wii's incredible lead?"

I'm posotive that MGS4 will do great things for the PS3. But I doubt one game will get the PS3 into the #1 position. It takes a handful of awesome titles to do that. So really, who knows. Either way, as a gamer, I'm excited to see what the companies will do to get/hold onto the top spot.

:D:D:D:D

P.S. MGS4 is melting my face off....

Breakfast6573d ago (Edited 6573d ago )

If Halo 3 didnt do it for the xbox...Solid Snake sure as hell is aint doing it for the PS3...especially when it's getting released for the xbox

:)

Silellak6573d ago

A single game won't do it, but this will probably be looked back on by gaming historians as "the turn of the tide in the console war."

I mean, everyone knew that PS3 sales would overtake 360 sales overall, thanks to worldwide sales. The only real questions are:

1. Will it ever overtake the Wii?
2. Will the 360 mantain its hold on the North American market?

Silellak6573d ago

Wow, spamming that list like a silly, insecure fanboy totally adds to this conversation about whether or not MGS4 will push the PS3 past its rivals.

Maybe if you were smalling sales figures, then you'd have SOME relevance.

I agree. One game will never make or break a console. The ps2 was such a resounding success because it had dozens of fantastic titles like GTA, God of War, Final Fantasy X, MGS2 and MGS3 I could go on forever but instead I'll just stop. Lucky for PS3 owners the greatest franchises from ps2 will soon be on PS3 and that may kill off 360 and wii...

MGS4...
...
...
I'm speechless.
This game is magnificent.

jadenkorri6573d ago

MGS4 is not a ps3 selling game, MGS4 was made for the hardcore fans of MGS, it won't sell alot of ps3s, but it will help the sales towards it just like any other game. I bought MGS4 Limited Edition 1st day, and will play it once I grad from college...its the last week, hectic time so no MGS for me for now, its sitting in from of me wrapped in the new plastic and drilling holes in the back of my head...BTW Breakfast i hope you were joking about it going to Xbox, it won't. People who hate the game are probably just hardcore 360 fans who can't get it and say ps3 sucks up and down all the time.... Try the PS3, you will enjoy it, I'll would be enjoying a 360 if MS did better business practices than what they are doing now.. I downright refuse to support MS until they do better

"MGS4 is not a ps3 selling game"

Ahh son, you may want to check the news coming in from retailers around the world. Goes something like this...

"Sony underestimated demand" and "We have sold out"

TheHater6573d ago

alan0016573d ago

and that secret title that journalists saw

fredy6573d ago

tehhater how do you post this: Team Ico projects (2 of them) Naughty Dog projects, HOME, White Knight"

unknown f%king games and expect them games unknown games, you fanboys are sure delusional i tell ya

when did figthers sell 5 million or more?

Jack Bauer6573d ago

mgs alone wont...it is number 4 in a series that you need to at least have an understanding of the other games, in other words it already has a fanbase, and they already have a ps3 or got one this week. advancing GoW3 from ps2 to ps3 generation will be more likely.

Hububla6573d ago

I only ever played the first MGS and i have no idea about the story but i still say that MGS4 is the best game i ever played... the graphics.. the cutscenes.. everything about the game screams quality i gotta pick up the essentials pack someday!

Konami Delists Some Metal Gear Games From Digital Stores Without Warning

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker HD have been delisted from digital stores without warning.

cloganart116d ago

I mean, it makes sense. With Vol.2 coming and all that

Commentby116d ago

Stupid headline. Should state that they are being updated or discontinued. This makes the crazy people that only read headlines think it some kind of conspiracy to take away peoples already purchased games.

jjb1981116d ago

If you want to all of a sudden own them now and haven't played them yet because a remastered is coming out, shame on you. I can't believe people are complaining about this 15 years later when it was bound to happen anyway. "A new remaster is out, quick, I'd better buy the original from the shop."

gigoran8115d ago

Gamers: "Physical? who needs physical? everyone knows that digital online games are the future. stop living in the past. we don't need no stinking disc drive"

Same gamers: "How dare the delist a digital game that I own!!!!"

computeSci115d ago (Edited 115d ago )

And? What is your point?

Same gamers: "How dare the retailers to delist (quit selling) a physical game that I own!!!!"

I think you just read the headline and don't know how dilisting works with Sony. It's common knowledge that:

"Players who already bought the games will still have them in their library and can download and play them as usual."

So again, what is your point?

PlayStation 3 Games That Desperately Need a PS5 Remaster

The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.

Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!

Rude-ro829d ago

I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.

darthv72829d ago

Funny you mention that... my son wanted to play some PS3 games in 3d on my PS tv and he was blown away by how good KZ3 was. It really was a great addition to the game. Im surprised there have not been more 3d games from that era being ported to the PSVR/VR2.

_SilverHawk_829d ago

resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword

Cacabunga829d ago

Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2

Profchaos829d ago (Edited 829d ago )

Killzone trilogy in VR would be amazing bonus points if they offer shadow fall.

There was a psvr1 Killzone project that supermassive was working on at one stage which wasn't up to scratch and Sony brand it back in house I was hoping we would see that on psvr2 eventually.

Personally I'd love to see some more love or acknowledgement of psvr2 from Sony in general it was a expensive headset and Sony barely acknowledge it's existence

seanpitt23829d ago

The amount of work needed to remaster these games wouldn't be beneficial on a financial and business sense.. MGS4 would probably be the best bet as it would need the least amount of work!

Iceball2000829d ago

YEAAASSSSS! I miss this franchise and wanna play it so bad again.

Father__Merrin829d ago

The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer

InUrFoxHole829d ago

The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.

Marcus Fenix829d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989829d ago

That's what Bungie should make, Ill keep saying it until it happens

1Victor829d ago (Edited 829d ago )

Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱

Michiel1989829d ago

Resistance was the best co-op fps I ever played after L4D2
