"I wonder if Sony can win back user support by the price cut of just $100," Kazumi Kitaue told Reuters in an interview a day before the start of E3. "I don't expect a substantial impact... With $500, you can buy a personal computer."
The Konami executive added that Metal Gear Solid, which debutted on the original PlayStation in 1998, may go to other consoles as a result to recoup development costs.
"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.
Konami is expected to release Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots for the PS3 in early 2008. To date, Sony has lost several once exclusive games to other platforms including Grand Theft Auto IV and Beautiful Katamari due to poor PS3 sales
