Konami fixes Metal Gear Solid 4 trailer, removes Playstation 3 logo

A Metal Gear Solid 4 trailer that was re-released to fix some visual errors has unintentionally whipped the gaming community into a frenzy.

The trailer was released on Konami's new Metal Gear 20th Anniversary website, and has quite a few noticeable differences between the original trailer which was released at the Electronic Entertainment Expo in 2006.

The most striking of these differences is the removal of the Playstation 3 logo during the final credits, leading some gamers to believe that the game is no longer exclusive for the Playstation 3 platform.

The Metal Gear Solid 4 trailer shown at the Tokyo Games Show also had its Playstation logo removed, which may indicate a pattern of change since E3 last year.

Updates:

GamesRadar has spoken to Konami, who informed them that the trailer which appeared on a new MGS site this morning is definitely not new. Konami stressed to GamesRadar that it has not released any new footage, and that we won't see anything of MGS4 until E3 2007 in August.

here we go again,

the race is on to see who gets a response from Konami.

Every MGS fan knows that Kojima loves to play with his fans so it could be a trick.

the official site states:
PlayStation 3 [Coming 2007]

1.1 - trailer looks good but....

its enhanced gameplay graphics for sure, but as usual the textures are flat and colour is awefull

hopefully the final game will be awesome but at the moment i would say it will look slightly worse then the cutscene trailer

and this so is coming to xbox! c'mon you would be stupid to think it wont! and xbox fans arnt desperate for this game like gaystation fans say they are, its just fun getting freakstation fans all worked up (doesnt take much)

just like DMC it would be nice to see this on 360 but i dont care if it stays on greyststion (get it cos ps3 colour is cr@p)

who has the most exclusives? yeah MS, sony would die if it lost this or FF and you sony lemmings know it, thats why you have nightmares of loseing any more games to MS

1.2 - @ Lord Anubis, I did my part and wrote Kojima

Release an XBOX 360 version equally and on the same release date as the PS3, and not only will you sell millions of more copies but will make friends and loyal fans with XBOX 360 gamers. Shun us or place us second rate to a Trojan Horse and we will uprise against our foes. Don't you understand if we weren't independent minded and strong than we would all be playing on Sony's Trojan Horse. Only run with the Jackal if your a Jackal, other wise properly distance yourself on higher ground.

1.3 - THIS HAS BEEN PROVEN FALSE!

to all the little xbots!
This was all just typical xbot fanboy bullcrap!
Like that letter last week, about MGS.
Xbots are so pathetic, its incredible! They make fools
of themselves every chance they get. They are so desperate
for Sony's game's they cry, and think up ways to make themselves
believe they will get the games. So desperate are the little xbots!

I remember when gaming didn't have any of this bs. Sony, Nintendo &
Sega fans would take jabs at each other but we had respect for each other. But this isn't the case now, since the whinny little xbots came around gaming has gone downhill. They cry & whine, make up stories, follow there M$ with blindfolded eyes, b*tch about every other console
and think there playing on a machine God himself invented! But alas they are to stupid to realize that God doesn't make junk! God doesn't give you red-rings, scratched disc's, new games & patches that brick systems. And God certainly doesn't ask for crazy repair costs on obviously defective systems, or milk you on extended warranties or charge you for shipping! Only M$ does.

For shame! little xbots, for shame!

I'm hoping that a fanboy is not responsible for this like the news before of how a fanboy rewrote a news article about MGS4 coming to Xbox. If unfortunately that's the case, then i must admit fanboyism really hit lowest of the lowest level.

@ITR
Thanks man. Forgot about that. I guess the fanboy is kojima himself toying with our minds lolz.

13.1 - Good question.

Although Kojima said something that seemed to make it exclusive, the rumors and speculation haven't been extinguished. If it was truly exclusive, Sony would say so (very plainly). The ambiguity only hurts Sony, so we can only assume that MGS4 is multi-platform.

If Sony had exclusivity rights, the PS3 logo would be there. Whenever you see MS publish a game, the 360 splash screen appears at the end.

16.1 - You do have a point...

While it is true that so far all console exclusives have featured their respective console's logo screen at the end of their trailers / advertisements, let
s not forget that Kojima productions is an independent company and free to advertise as they choose.
Rest assured that if this trailer hits the Television, there will be some indication as to what console it is for.

Kojima's having another field day with this one. He loves to do this, and I bet he's laughing his ass off right now. What would you guys be doing in his position if you KNEW people wanted the game so much that they brought up every single rumor they found? You would do what he did, remove a logo just so they start talking again. It's funny to watch seriously.

But, on the more mature side of things, there have been Metal Gear Solid 4 trailers BEFORE THIS ONE, that have not shown the Playstation 3 logo at the end. This is not the first time, and those past time, there wasn't as much "speculation" about exclusivity going on as there has been as of late. So, he's done it before for Metal Gear Solid 4, he did it again.

He's laughing at everyone right now.

17.1 - Is he laughing at Sony?

Sony needs MGS4 exclusivity. If Sony paid Konami for exclusivity, the PS3 logo would be plastered on the film. You may be right about Kojima playing games, but it shows that Sony has no rights to MGS4. It is only the will of Konami that is keeping it a PS3 game.

my grandfather use to tell me " sh!t in one hand and wish in another and see which one fill's up first"
he was also a senile drunk but he had a point. and the point is that the MGS4 10disc special is probably not going to make it to 360° so keep on wishing.

even if konami came out and said" no...we will never bring MGS4 to a 360°" the remote controlled xbots will still spread rumors that every game not made by sony is going multiplatform. they dont understand that japan hates america. japan hates MS too......well, it seems like everybody in the world hates MS except xbots........weird that is????
