Billysan posted...Kojima Pro. didn't compress any of the audio files because this was suppose to be the era of HD that of all things 360 highly promoted.
I think uncompressed audio files are over kill though.
But the real reason this isn't being ported to 360 is because it was optimized for PS3 and it take to much work to port to 360.
It also wont sell. MGS HD Collection on 360 performed horribly, as did the Silent Hill Collection and most other Japanese games. The only things that do well on 360 are multiplayer shooters and racers.

So where do you get your sales data? Those things are expensive.

Going by the stupidity in this thread, it apparently matters a great deal for some special individuals.

You weren't looking hard enough for them, as evidenced by your admission that you only care about "what's popular."
Really? Only what's popular? Is that why I play JRPGs (the MOST unpopular genre) and don't care for anything from the West? Wow. Real genius here.
Microsoft lacks the ability to make a console with games that are both great and exclusive to it for me to hold on to one. I never even bothered with the original Xbox.

Yeah I'll admit the reason I got a 360 was for Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey, Dead Rising and the then exclusive Ninja Gaiden 2.
There really hasn't been anything else exclusive on 360 that really interest me except maybe a few xbox live games.
Could care less about Halo or Gears of War.
But at least I got to play the better version of Bayonetta. Don't blame Sony on that though that was all Sega.
