i am going to wait for x-box version before purchase...rental for ps2 version....this game will be amazing though

[rajchakrabarti]

Well i know they are planning a PC version.. so porting it to the xbox won't be hard.. but Substance didn't sell well (and i think cuz it came out so freaking late) and konami is reluctant with xbox....

what i am hearing is that it will come out a year later...which really sucks,, since it the game graphically looks so nice on the xbox

I wouldn't count on an Xbox version. Substance did not sell very well (price dropped very very quick)

also PS2 version of Substance is much better than Xbox version

They better release it on the box, i dont want to buy a PS2 again, just for snake eater.

I would get it for Xbox, but I can't wait a year or two for it to come out on the Box. I'm definitely getting it for PS2 when it comes out.

I'd rather play it on Xbox than Ps2.

well, they might be planning a pc version, but you realize they released substance on xbox BEFORE the Ps2 version, granted Sons of Liberty was already on the market, but Substance came out on xbox before the ps2.

[rajchakrabarti]

yeah but it was basically the same game,,

Why is it so much better? Just curious cause I picked up the XBX version for $4.99 cause I couldn't find the PS2 version. Thanks!

Xbox version has slowdown in places (though it varies apparently...some say it's terrible, I only saw it in one spot). This is because it was only emulated on the Xbox, not designed specifically for it. Had Konami developed a version especially for Xbox, it would have likely caused PS2 fanboys to cry.

might happen eventually

also missing snakeboarding

I liked the Xbox version and the slowdown should not stop you from playing the game. The Xbox controller was better for this type of game IMO

Sadly I must say its a pretty safe bet that MGS3 will be PS2 only.

Konami and Sony confirm good news for Sony owners
"We are delighted to bringing Metal Gear Solid 3
exclusively to the PlayStation 2. This franchise has a huge legacy on
the PlayStation console and its third iteration, the advanced
PlayStation 2 hardware allows us to deliver another groundbreaking
title to fans of the series," said Geoff Mulligan, Chief Operating
Officer, Konami of America, Inc. "This title adds to the strength of
the outstanding PlayStation 2 lineup and gives us the opportunity to
reach the world's largest hardware gaming audience at launch."

I do hope that maybe a year down the road they release MGS3 for the Xbox and GameCube. I got hooked on the series after I played 'Twin Snakes'. I also hope Konami releases MGS2 to the GameCube someday, I would like to have them all on the Cube. But I'll take Xbox versions if I have to. Just as long as I don't have to uses the stupid PS controller anymore.

It'll be out for the XBox, it'll just take a while. Bank on it. They want to make sure everyone has played it before they let it come out on XBox.

i was at Gamerush and they have the boxes for pre-order set up, the halo 2 tin box is awesome, but anyways,

the snake-eater box had at the bottom the ps2 logo and THE XBOX LOGO. i assume it will come out at some point on the xbox. unless this case is a fake one but all the cases there are real pre-order designs made by the compaines, not blockbuster
