Konami: PS3 price drop not large enough; MGS4 to X360?

The senior executive of Konami, Kazumi Kitaue is asking himself whether the recently announced price drop of Sony's PlayStation 3 will be substantial enough to create a large number of new PS3 owners.

Speaking to Reuters, Kitaue, head of Konami's North American and European operations, said that the PlayStation 3, even at a reduced price of $499, was still comparatively expensive.

"I wonder if Sony can win back user support by the price cut of just $100," said Kitaue.

"I don't expect a substantial impact. With $500, you can buy a personal computer."

Because he's obviously concerned about the proceeds Metal Gear Solid 4 will generate when it finally hits stores, he vaguely hinted at a possible Xbox 360 release.

Kitaue also indicated that while Konami would like to keep the latest Metal Gear Solid title a PlayStation 3 exclusive, a desire to see a return on large development costs coupled with a smaller than anticipated PS3 user base could see the game headed for Xbox 360 too.

"Since Metal Gear Solid was born for the PlayStation, we would like to keep it a PlayStation game. But we might have to take some steps," Kitaue said.

Time will tell, but the first signs are showing a large increase in PS3 sales since the price drop. If those numbers hold true, X360 probably won't be seeing MGS4 for quite some time.
