Let’s pretend for a moment that you live in a parallel world in which whatever happened between Hideo Kojima and Konami never happened, and in which Yoji Shinkawa’s absolutely fantastic artwork still stars front and center in Metal Gear covers.
Whether it's showcasing damage realistically or simulating fractures and conditions, these games are worth checking out.
The Metal Gear series has sold 60.2 million copies, as of September 2023.
...and yet, they couldn't give more respect and effort into the collection.
What a terrible company.
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is another rollercoaster of a game in the Metal Gear Solid series. Here's what to expect and why you need to experience it.
Amazing how bad this game looks already. We keep acting like this gen doesn't feel like an update but I think we're starting to see it.
The game started really strong in that hospital, but after a couple of hours I wondered if it was even an mgs game I was playing.
Fantastic. Love Shinkawa's artwork.
I'm getting this game digitally, where will I put it :P
I always loved Shinkawa's art-style instead of the 3D images that's started adorning the Metal Gear covers since MGS4. His art style is so unique and breathtaking.
Personally, I'd be using the one from Ground Zeroes as the flipped artwork looks pretty sweet but I remember seeing one on Neogaf that looks amazing.
*Edit*
Here's the link for the Neogaf one I mentioned.

The retro VHS cover is the best one out there by a country mile.
