Read on for the events that would bring forums to a standstill.

2 - the number one is this............

MSFT backing out of console gaming after 360, cause they aren`t gaining any considerable ground on SONY or NINTENDO.

No.10 should be No.1, it would affect both PS3 and 360 owners; and i would cry

Or how about

"Next MGS game only to be released on PC", or replace MGS with GoW3, Halo4 or PES2009.

There most likely won't be another mgs so no worries there. Maybe next Kojima production is only on wii would drive people out of their minds, and is possible since he stated his interest in the console.

6.1 - Yeah

Then the sony boys will make excuses as to why its ok to pay for online and the xboys will say that they are stupid for paying. Thats what i hate most about fanboys, they will say anything to make their console of choice seem better.. i have a friend and he is like (a lil off topic) why would i want to use Yoda if we are gonna have Vader???? WHY WOULDNT YOU WANT TO USE EVERYBODY POSSIBLE??? i can show him a video and if its sony its a marvel and if i show him the exact same video and say its xbox he will say its a piece of crap. He is my dogg and i luv him but that fool drives me crazy sometimes...

Halo to target casual gamers? Doesn't it already? It's a known franchise with bright pretty colours and little aliens that run around saying "funny" things.

I never have and never will want MGS4 on 360. Never been my type of game and I can live without it.

But if it came to 360, I'd pretty much turn into Bill Gates with all my "HAHAHA's"

and the GTA4 exclusive content thing would be funny too

10 - LOL @ no 1

It better look better on 12 dvd's.
But how would the Mark II work without Sixaxis?

As you can tell by my avatar i like MG, been playing since the NES.

Metal Gear has NEVER been about graphics.Never

(Example:It's about simple things that you could'nt do in other games at the time ----> smoke cigarettes for no reason or purposely)

Don't 9 year olds play Halo?

10.1 -

the MGS series has always been about gameplay, your right, but MGS4 looks to be one of the best LOOKING titles this generation, so we MGS fans can boast about it's graphics AND gameplay....your right about another thing, even if MGS were to MAGICALLY come out on the 360, it would require ATLEAST 7 discs

I would def play that Mario game...i wonder how they would interpret the koopas and all the other bad guys...and maybe Mario drives a Yoshi, whatever that could be, sounds like a good name for a Motorcycle.
