if you dont buy ori, that doesnt mean other ppl don't buy ori. and dude, the world doesnt revolve around malaysia only.

lets take gta iv as an example. the game sold 6 million copies (US$500 million) at launch day in the US alone, with 60% of sales from the xbox 360 version. that's 3.6 million copies. in the US only. let's not get into europe and the rest of the world. and 60% of US$500 million is US$300 million dude. (source: here)

if i was konami, i would be an idiot to not consider mgs4 for the 360. but who knows? maybe sony are paying konami US$300 million to keep them happy or maybe sony and konami are really good pals (for now).

honestly, i think its a matter of time before the era of exclusivity comes to an end. third party developers and publishers like konami are run by businessmen in suits, not nerdy fanboys. it's all about the $$$. case in point: square enix and final fantasy 13 on the xbox 360.

how much and how long can sony/microsoft/nintendo pay them to keep a title exclusive to their console?

with the average cost of making a next-gen game in the tens of millions and requiring a team of at least 200 people (if you want the game to come out within 1 to 3 years), no third party publisher today can afford to stay console exclusive forever.
