Metal Gear Solid: Rising will mean a “level third-party playing field” between rival consoles the Microsoft Xbox 360 and Sony PS3, according to Shane Kim, corporate VP, strategy and business development, interactive entertainment, Microsoft.

The creator of the Metal Gear Solid series, Hideo Kojima, has admitted that his company Kojima Productions is facing “pressure” from Konami to create the next Metal Gear game, despite Kojima previously stating that Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns Of The Patriots would definitely be the last in the series.

UPDATE: The MGS4 demo is now available in Europe, as well as the US and Japan Stores.
Over in Japan, PS3 owners who didn’t get drawn in by the hype surrounding the launch of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots now have the chance to get a taster of Hideo Kojima’s Magnum Opus. Despite frequent assertions that there would be no demo, it is now being reported that an MGS4 demo has duly arrived on the Japanese PlayStation Store.
