    Formely announced as a PlayStation 3 exclusive, Konami's Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots will now also be released on Xbox 360, with a cut-down Nintendo Wii version also a possibility, according to online reports.

    The new game in the multi-million selling franchise will feature objective-based missions, while Xboxliveaddicts claims the Xbox 360 version will also include exclusive content and gameplay not offered in the PS3 edition.

    Starring the infamous character Solid Snake, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, as with other titles in the series, is being created by renowned designer Hideo Kojima.

    A Konami spokesman said of the PS3 edition: "The game is set after the events of MGS2 and players will reprise the role of top secret agent Solid Snake with appearances by characters throughout the MGS series. With the addition of online capability, MGS4 is a leading product and will signal the dawn of a new gaming era for the MGS series."

    The firm also added: "MGS4 brings a totally new concept and situation, resulting in the toughest Metal Gear infiltration mission ever devised."

    Industry insiders claim publisher Konami is also in talks with Nintendo to bring a cut-down MGS game to the Wii.

    Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots will be released in 2008.

    This has already been proved to be false and just a rumour.

    That being said but if metal gear solid does eventually come to the 360 then the ps3 will have lost it's best exclusive. it will never some out on wii though. Perhaps we will get a remake of the second or third one like twin snakes on gamecube.

    They could just have the same game, with obv crapper graphics, on a few discs


    It makes sense to make it for the Wii, seen as how its opened a whole new door in the gaming world, and the Wii Vs PS3 sales comparison is also a factor

    It doesn't make sense really though. Scaling graphics down and adding a tacked-on control scheme is harder than you think. it would be easier to just make a brand new game at that stage. I do believe that a wii-exclusive one should be made but going by The silent hill comments i have read. Konami still see the wii as a kids console which is a shame.

    It may be made but not for a long while.
