The folks over at Destructoid have allegedly unearthed information about Metal Gear Solid 4: The speculation that MSG4 will be a PS3 exclusive is not true. Destructoid claims it has received confirmation that the game will appear on both the PS3 and the Xbox 360. A firm release date has not been mentioned but MGS 4: Guns of the Patriots is expected to be available late 2008.

Exclusive content will be included in the 360 version as well as some downloadable goodies that will will give 360 owners some to gloat about.

This also comes on the heels of other major Sony first party exclusives including Devil May Cry 4 and Grand Theft Auto 4 also jumping ship on the PS3 and giving some love to 360 owners. This should become increasingly common as we see development costs rise and developers are left with the option of limiting their profits by sticking to one console or trying to expand their core audience and let everyone in on the fun.

This is especially unfortunate for the struggling PS3 which needs exclusive content for people to feel as if their respective $600 investment is worth it.
