Rumor: Next Metal Gear an Xbox release

http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/2008/12...-xbox-release/

What do you get when you mix an official Metal Gear website with neon green color and a power button that looks similar to the Xbox 360's ring of light? That's correct, a rumor that the next Metal Gear game will be releasing on the Xbox 360!


Over on the official Japanese Konami website, there's a webpage that is nothing more than the image you see above with text that reads "A Next Metal Gear Is ...". Nothing special, except for the fact that this lil' teaser site is done in "signature" Xbox 360 green and that the weird exclamation point math problem includes a picture of a power button that could be seen as similar to the 360's ring of light. Of course, Konami is keeping quiet to what the website is all about, but we'll give some advice anyway: Don't get your hopes up.

[Thanks, to everyone that sent this in]
I'm pretty sure there was a previous thread discussing this, but I couldn't find it. Feel free to merge!

I think it's funny that people associate that power symbol with the XBox 360 when its pretty much a standard logo for any power switch.

Still, with the color and everything I hope it means it's 360 bound even though i'm not the biggest fan of the series.

I would love to see it in 360, but I won't hold out hope. Love the series, but refuse to buy a PS3 for one game.
Anyway, another idea going around is a Metal Gear Ac!d game for the iPhone.

I don't want to be too OCD, but if you look closely, the power symbol in the Konami message does not match the power symbol on the 360 100%.

On the green one, the vertical line does not extend to the exact middle of the circle. On the xbox one it does. On the green one, the ring around the vertical line does not touch it. On the xbox one it does or is much closer.

Take that for what you will....
