Think about it. Playstation is the ideal place for MGS.The Solid series originated on the PS1. MGS 2 was the only MGS game on the original Xbox and since it was the second one I'm pretty sure not a lot of Xbox players played it. Other than that, no MGS game ever touched Xbox until the HD collection came out and the majority of Xbox players who got the Hd collection were Playstation gamers that switched to 360. Even now, it hurts my soul when I see so many Xbox players say "MEtal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes was my first MGS game". It just pains me so much to hear that because GZ wasn't even a real game! I'd then ask "Why Ground Zeroes?" and every response is "It was free on Gold". So not only have they never played the previous games, they also have no idea what's going on in the story! So in reality, very few actual Xbox players play MGS when you look at the numbers of the Playstation players that play it. That makes you wonder "what's the point of it being on Xbox if no one on Xbox really plays it?" One word: Money. Being honest, the only reason MGS came to Xbox at all was because Konami wanted more and more money Even looking at the sales for The Phantom Pain, Playstation still obliterates the amount of Xbox sales. 73% of Phantom Pain copies were sold on Ps4 compared to 25% of Phantom Pain copies on BOTH Xbox consoles (The rest on PC) My thinking is: Metal Gear Solid is 90% appreciated by Playstation gamers What's the point of it being on Xbox if no one on Xbox plays it? Also, if you've played MGS on nothing but an Xbox and you enjoy it, let me know in the comments and if you want, state how you enjoy it even when MGS 1, 4 and Portable Ops are missing from the bunch Note: NOT A CONSOLE WARS POST. Just a simple question EDIT: Since everyone is completely ignoring this statement, I'll put it here: I'M AWARE THAT METAL GEAR STARTED ON THE NES/NSX WHICHEVER ONE IT WAS. I SPECIFICALLY SAID THE METAL GEAR """"""SOLID"""""""" GAMES STARTED ON THE PS1. THE ORIGINAL METAL GEARS WEREN'T EVEN AVAILABLE OUTSIDE OF JAPAN AT THE TIME EITHER
