Destructoid's Chad Concelmo :
"I love the Metal Gear series. In fact, I have an unhealthy obsession with it.
When thinking about what to write for this feature in honor of the upcoming PlayStation 3 release of Metal Gear Solid 4 (OMG!) I had a lot to mull over. Rev Anthony and Jim Sterling wrote some intelligent dissertations on the underlying themes of the series. Maybe I could dissect the subtle nuances between the series' character arcs? How about an in-depth look at how the games' visual metaphors have evolved over the years?
After laughing uncontrollably, I realized: Let me just leave the smart stuff to Rev and Jim. I love making lists and I love the bosses in Metal Gear. How about just combine the two? Yay! Amazing!
Over the years, Hideo Kojima has created some of the most stunningly creative boss battles ever experienced in a videogame. They are so well-designed, so original, and so unlike anything ever seen before.
So which ones are the best of the best? It was unbelievably hard to narrow down, but hit the jump for a list of what I think are the ten best bosses in Metal Gear history.
[It goes without saying that immense spoilers follow -- you've been warned]"
The PlayStation 2 boasted an impressive collection of stealth games. Here are some of the best stealth games worth experiencing
The Opening Levels that hooked gamers from the outset.
The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.
Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!
I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.
Funny you mention that... my son wanted to play some PS3 games in 3d on my PS tv and he was blown away by how good KZ3 was. It really was a great addition to the game. Im surprised there have not been more 3d games from that era being ported to the PSVR/VR2.
resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword
Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2
Killzone trilogy in VR would be amazing bonus points if they offer shadow fall.
There was a psvr1 Killzone project that supermassive was working on at one stage which wasn't up to scratch and Sony brand it back in house I was hoping we would see that on psvr2 eventually.
Personally I'd love to see some more love or acknowledgement of psvr2 from Sony in general it was a expensive headset and Sony barely acknowledge it's existence
The amount of work needed to remaster these games wouldn't be beneficial on a financial and business sense.. MGS4 would probably be the best bet as it would need the least amount of work!
The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer
The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.
Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱
I was an idiot at my first playthrough of MGS3, I was trying to kill The Sorrow somehow of my desperation on not knowing how in hell can I pass this boss since he's already dead to begin with!
What a weird, yet cool boss that wasn't that much of a bad guy after all.
i thought the fight with him was pretty awesome. castlevania? controller rumbling on its own? damn that was funny!
