one-armed dwarf Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 I'm glad we're getting these. Not got great hopes for that Snake Eater remake, but preserving the classics is at least a step better than Rockstar Snake Eater still looks great. Hell so does Sons of Liberty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisturbedSwan Posted June 21, 2023 Author Share Posted June 21, 2023 It will be good to go back and hopefully finally finish MGS1 this time around, I'll replay MGS2 as well and probably leave 3 as it'll probably end up being too similar to the Remake for me.

one-armed dwarf Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Technically this would be for collection 2, a different game entirely. But, I mean it fits here Sounds like MGS4 will be coming to PC and modern hardware. Which would be great. I mean the game sucks and I don't really want to play it again, but well I like having the option to all the same https://www.pcgamer.com/metal-gear-solid-4-is-finally-being-freed-of-its-playstation-3-prison/?utm_campaign=socialflow&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_medium=social Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 I really liked MGS4, but there does need to be another way to play it. There's plenty of copies out there, it isn't rare, but how many people have a PS3 set up and problem free? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmark Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 I’d have picked up Twin Snakes. Not fussed about any of the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one-armed dwarf Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 This is essentially just a port of the existing HD collection, even down to Konami not updating the copyright year on it (2012). 720p https://www.nintendolife.com/features/hands-on-metal-gear-solid-master-collection-vol-1-could-be-so-much-more-but-isnt At least it has Snake's Revenge tho, which might even be a sly little 'fuck you' to Kojima as he called it a crappy game lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DisturbedSwan Posted August 21, 2023 Author Share Posted August 21, 2023 As expected really, they never claimed they were remakes, remasters or anything, it'll just be good to experience all these games on modern platforms really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmark Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 Maybe not but it’s going to be a bit jarring to put in a £50 disc into your ps5 to play a game in 720p. Some effort would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisturbedSwan Posted August 21, 2023 Author Share Posted August 21, 2023 Yeah I get ya, I'll likely pick it up for Switch when I'm in Japan, makes more sense on that platform, in my mind at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one-armed dwarf Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 Apparently Sons of Liberty is 30fps on Switch, which usually wouldn't seem strange but it ran at 60 on PS2 (50 in PAL territories) 🤔 Snake Eater was 30 back in the day tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nag Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 1080p/60fps confirmed For everything bar the Switch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

one-armed dwarf Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Now that these are out, people are finding out that it actually runs at 720p native on everything, upscaled to 1080p. Which leads to bad visual quality, worse than if it was just 720 without upscaling MGS1 doesn't have true analog support, it translates the analog inputs to 8 way digital (so snake controls poorly on stick, in other words) Sounds like a very low effort, but not surprising with Konami Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

one-armed dwarf Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 There's a video here that shows the differences Also because I am a sucker for Metal Gear I did buy it, and I definitely felt the input lag in MGS1 that this vid mentions. Feeling vindicated (not for buying something that is shit, but recognising the same problem as this dude) The squished aspect ratio for the PS2 games is particularly weird, they are narrower than 16:9. However the console versions seem to actually fill the 16:9 container, seems like a bit of a rushed botch job but especially on PC Still, I wanted versions of Snake Eater and Sons of Liberty for PC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spatular Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 I still want to get it too but will wait till its cheap or something, shame it sounds a bit botched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
