NO more rumors MGS on Xbox:

Ign is a friggin joke but gamers.com is good.

  The question is will this sell some X-Boxs? I dont think so. IF someone wanted a MGS2 there would be no reason to buy a X-Box when its already on PS2 and most gamers prefer PS2\'s gaming selection over X-boxes so if they bought a PS2 they could get MGS2 and get some other games they would like. But if in Europe then X-Box may be an ok choice because of the price drop.

May 09, 2002 - As part of its most recent financial report, Konami of Japan revealed that the next MGS game will be entitled Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance , and be developed for PlayStation 2, Xbox, and PC. The release includes specific news of major new titles, including "a second and third original title to follow on our Metal Gear Solid series," and "new original titles" bearing the Z.O.E brand.

Titles derived from the Metal Gear Solid series are to be released for multiple platforms, although the report seems to distinguish between "sequels" and "derivative titles." New sequels in the series are to be released every two years. Meanwhile, new games in the Zone of Enders franchise are being developed with worldwide release expressly in mind.

Aside from those major announcements, the release indicates plans to continue Konami JPN\'s successful exploitation of character-based franchises, including Konami\'s own Yu-Gi-Oh franchise and anime licenses such as Hikaru no Go and Tennis no Oji-sama, to produce titles for Gamecube, PlayStation, and Game Boy Advance. Altogether, the company plans to release 49 titles in the fiscal year ending March 2003.

Look forward to further news on Konami JPN\'s future plans, particularly new Metal Gear Solid and Z.O.E games, at the upcoming Electronic Entertainment Expo.

I actually believe this is more important for Xbox...it\'s a very strong 3rd party who is making a game for what everyone seems to think is a dead console...and it\'s sure to have enhancements/exclusives that seem to be signature in Xbox ports.

While an exclusive MGS would be nice, I don\'t think it would impact sales of the Xbox in a significant degree.  The MGS games will just make a nice addition to the growing library of games...

It\'s quite impressive how some of you die hard PS2 fanboys are trying to make this seem like anything but good news...

I don\'t want my Xbox to die.. freakin\' expensive paper weight.  Besides, MS seems pretty serious about giving them away if thats what it takes to get one in every home.  

Caurse\' on the other hand Sony still can\'t make PS2s fast enough... I wonder if Billy G.  is regretting his move into console gaminf yet.

THis is great news.  It\'s what I always wanted.  I think it will be hard for them to port the control scheme over to the XBox, but a few sacrifices here and there and everything will be fine, namely the pressure sensitive buttons that are not featured on the XBox controller.  Still though, this is EXCELLENT news.  THey\'ll have to revamp all the levels in Metal Gear Solid to make it tougher for players with the advantaged of the new enhancements to win.  The tank hangar would be much too easy a task with the FPV shooting mode.  Who knows WHAT they\'ll do to revampe this beauty of a game. :D

Actually the Xbox controller does have preasure sensitive buttons.  So the controls shouldn\'t be a problem.  Ya know if your hands gigantic.

PS2 Pressure sensitive buttons:
L1, L2, R1, R2, X, Square, Triangle, Circle, [D-pad] Up, Down, Left, Right

MGS2 uses Square for aim and fire.. If you hold it loose he doesn’t fire, hard he shoots.
L2, R2 to lean left and right.. Hard he leans more, soft he leans less. L2+R2 together and snake stretch so he can look up over obstacles.

Don\'t bother Pahn...seven lost his ability to reason when he sold his soul to Sony...

He will no doubt try to counter your reply with something he\'s heard from a reliable source (Sony) or one of their first parties:rolleyes:

Actually, this is the first I have heard of the X-Box having pressure sensitive buttons, other than the analog triggers.  Please, tell me more.
