News > Konami Exec Dismisses PS3 Price Cut

July 10, 2007

Even after a $100 price cut, Konami still isn't convinced of the PS3's viability. 

Kazumi Kitaue, the head of Konami's North American and European operations had this to say:

"I wonder if Sony can win back user support by the price cut of just $100.  I don't expect a substantial impact ... With $500, you can buy a personal computer."

He went on to briefly discuss the future of Metal Gear Solid 4.  His words give Xbox 360 owners even more hope when it comes to a 360 version of the game:

"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..."

"Steps" could easily mean that Konami will simply make the game non-exclusive, which is exactly what hordes of gamers want.
