Après avoir réaffirmé que MGS 4 ne serait pas porté sur Xbox 360 (confirmé par Microsoft qui a indiqué encore récemment que MGS 4 ne rentrait pas dans leur stratégie commerciale), Kojima indique plus ou moins subtilement que ces futurs jeux seront multiplateformes...
Dommage :/ Finis les jeux purement optimisé pour une machine et donc qui sont parfaitement fignoler :s
Hideo Kojima has admitted that because Metal Gear Solid 4 was optimised for the PS3 then it is probably not possible to port it over to the Xbox 360. In addition to this, he gave belief that future games would be multiplatform but not MGS 4.
Pressed on MGS4's exclusivity and the possibility of an Xbox 360 port, Kojima reiterated that the PS3 had been chosen because he believed that the series' success had been entwined with PlayStation's, and admitted that "because MGS4 was optimised for the PS3 it is probably not possible".
"But, you know, what kind of disturbs me sometimes, because a lot of people ask me about this PS3/360 question, is that it's not about the hardware - I want people to look at the game itself. Sometimes I even feel like it should be on a PC so that people don't ask me about hardware and platforms," he said.
Asked whether he would develop multiplatform games in future, Kojima said: "If we're talking about the future - not MGS4, but my future titles, if we're referring to that - if the hardware technology rises then obviously, you know, it won't be based on the hardware anymore. Probably I will first create the software and then, um, it's a strange word to say, but port to other hardware if that technological ability rises in all areas."
voilà qui clos le debat une fois pour toute.
