Konami to direct 70% to Sony...

Ten titles out of a hundred is a small commitment by Konami.  That makes sense; put the money where the games are.  Both Jumpman and jaggies are right.  Jumpman says that Konami will be giving Sony the majority of the titles while Xbox only get\'s ten.  You two were agreeing with one another without knowing it! :D  It figures out this way:

PS2: 30%(30 games)
PSX: 40% (40 games)
GBA:15%(15 games)
GameCube: 5%(5 games)
Xbox: 10%(10 games)

Looks right to me.  You people act like everyone expected Konami just to drop PS2 and develop for GC and Xbox.  If not, then why is this topic worthy to be posted.  The PSX has 80 million units world-wide and to not develop for it would be throwing money away.  Xbox and GC aren\'t out yet so of course support for them will be minimal at first.  Did you think Konami dropped the PSX because of the PS2?  No!  They go where the money is and right now it isn\'t clear how Xbox and GC will do because they still have about 7 months until launch.  

However, keep in mind that Konami and Microsoft have a Square/EA type relationship(MS publishes Konami PC games) and that Konami were the first supporters of the Xbox.  Hell, they even purchased 100 dev kits.  That\'s no small investment folks.  Expect Xbox support to become more robust as the picture gets clearer.



YA! I smart XBox fan! You truly are one of a kind. :)

I\'m not insulting the XBox its just that the majority of the XBox fans we get here(and pretty much everywhere) are completely ignorant fanboys.

. I\'ve said it before and I\'ll say it again, in terms of ingenuity, exclusivity, and console competition, X-Box brings nothing to the table except a fat wad of cash and some rehashed PC components wrapped with a DC controller and a plastic black box.----RYU

Where did you get these surprising numbers? From what I\'ve read it\'s PSX+ PS2- 70 & GBA 30%. He didn\'t say **** about making games for NGC and Xbox anytime soon.

Don\'t make a reputation for yourself...

Hey, I remember that Konami said they didn\'t even confirm Silent Hill X! and the internet was just full of rumors. Whether Xbox fanboys like it or not, Konami is stuck with PS2. Ps2 is NOT IN A FAILING SITUATION. So, if you don\'t like Konami\'s decision, get a PS2
