This is just the beginging

I think it's sad though that the scenes with The Boss and Snake in a remake of Snake Eater seemed more what I wanted to see from a next gen MGS game then what we got with MGSV

Abriael2897d ago

The only way they can dig that hole digger is announcing a mobile game.

-Foxtrot2897d ago

Oh a top trump game would be worse haha

Gaming_Cousin2897d ago

Announcing Metal Gear Solid 6 as a mobile exclusive. I would send them 1,000,000 tons of glitter bombs

VJGenova2897d ago (Edited 2897d ago )

Konami says mobile is the future, so i would fully expect mobile versions of all their franchises in short order.

Stereotypical_gamer2897d ago

That will be the least surprising move Konami will ever make.

SolidStoner2897d ago

Where is it? I want to dislike it also....

Hope Konami will vanish! Thanks for some great games in the past though! But not any more, so get lost! :D

Just clicked the link to hit Dislike

My work has been done

red2tango2897d ago

Basically the same thing. Kojima was disrespected way too badly and for them to prostitute his creation is sad.

Shubhendu_Singh2897d ago

Youtube Dislikes - the new metric game hype is calculated by ?
That COD trailer really has done something amazing this time. lol

OoglyBoogly2897d ago

I want those graphics in a MGS3 remaster. Fuck this pachi machine, make a decent MGS again and don't let MGS5 be the series fair well!

DillyDilly2897d ago

Remaster all of the games & just do a collection & now they can be multiplatform with the original guy not holding anything back

Sparta072897d ago

Sooooo.... why would you want a remaster of games, that the original guy made if he held the games back!?
The reason the series is so popular is because of the " original guy "

DillyDilly2897d ago

He's gone now its not his franchise anymore

Nathan_Hale532897d ago

Legally it isn't his, but it is his work, his art, his ideas.

Dabigsiebowski2897d ago

I thought everyone was done with Konami once Kojima left? I am.

goldwyncq2897d ago

Looks like it's going to give Infinite Warfare a run for it's money for being the most disliked video game youtube video.

Gaming_Cousin2897d ago

No, this will get nowhere near the amount of dislikes that Call of Duty got.

yuukiliu2897d ago

And 95% of the dislikes are from westerners who have never even played pachinko, and never will.

Gaming_Cousin2897d ago

Nor would we want to. I mean a new Silent Hill game or a Silent Hill pachinko machine, such a hard choice /s

IIFloodyII2897d ago

Isn't the reason they are mad is because they've played Snake Eater anyways? So not sure why where they are from matters.

sdcard4gb2897d ago

Westerners who seem to have much more appreciation and honour then whoever thought that this is a good idea.

silvacrest2897d ago

It's a gambling machine with a MGS3 theme, what more do westerners need to know?

Nathan_Hale532897d ago

Banking on a proud name for a gambling machine that is abused hardcore in Japan.

N0TaB0T2897d ago (Edited 2897d ago )

If your artistic legacy were reduced to boring, obscure machines only Weebs in America and barely any Japanese locals would care about, you would 9000% dislike.

BlaqMagiq12897d ago

And we're supposed to care because...

Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater Announced , Metal Gear Solid Masters Collection Vol. 1 Out Autumn 2023

The MGS3 remake has been announced as "Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater." Metal Gear Solid Master's Collection announced for Autumn 2023.

FallenAngel1984350d ago (Edited 350d ago )

It’d be awesome if the MGS3 in this version combined the 3DS version’s superior controls with the HD version’s contents

This also better be on PS4

Sgt_Slaughter350d ago

Looks like current gen and PC only from the looks of it

GhostScholar350d ago

I’m excited for this but I’ll never understand why not remake metal gear solid first. Also is that master collection just ports? Or are they remasters?

Rebel_Scum350d ago

Chronological order for remakes maybe? Also Snakeeater is arguably the most popular MG game so that's also why.

Come to think of it, it's gonna be weird remaking MGS because how are you supposed to look up Meryl's codec frequency if you've got the digital edition lol.

CrimsonWing69350d ago

Dear god I hope it’s not last gen. I’m tired of that Gen holding this gen back.

Workshyskiver350d ago

Holding back re-releases of games from the ps1 and 2 generation?

FallenAngel1984350d ago (Edited 350d ago )

@ Sgt

Obviously Metal Gear Solid Delta will be on PS5

Why shouldn’t this collection also be on PS4?

@ fran

What’s wrong with PS4 gamers being able to enjoy MGS1-3?

@ Ghost

Konami is remaking Silent Hill 2 so I guess they just want to put out the title fans like the most after the long hiatus for each respective series.

@ Crimson

Last gen holding back rereleases of titles that were already remastered on PS3? Do you hear yourself?

ravens52350d ago

Oh the collection, ok, ye it probably will be on ps4 as well. Pretty sure everyone thought u ment MGS3. That would've been ludicrous.

GhostScholar350d ago

I would rather have a remade silent hill 1 before 2 but I see your point. Silent hill one scared the crap out of as a kid . It was creepy in a way resident evil has never been.

Youngindy21350d ago

It's good to see MGS 1 finally come to Xbox. Hopefully MGS 4 will be in the Vol. 2 collection. I still wonder how this collection will differ from the HD collection that's already on Xbox.

DarXyde350d ago

I think Guns of the Patriots not being on other platforms is due to a few reasons:

1.It was developed exclusively on extremely specialized hardware. That on its own might be a nightmare to commit time and resources to.

2. Game had endorsements. Calorie Mate, Apple, and Sony to name a few. Might be some issues there.

3. Maybe Sony needs to greenlight it for some odd reason?

4. Konami really doesn't want to. Getting anything from them this generation has been like pulling teeth.

Chocoburger350d ago

MGS 4 is definitely possible, Konami is extremely rich in Japan, and they can easily afford to re-sign licenses with companies. However if they can't or choose not to, then texture maps can be swapped out for "Peach OS" instead of "Apple OS". Altair's costume can be removed, food names can be changed, etc. It's really not that hard, as long as you put some effort into it. No different than removing Brad Buxon's music from Sonic 3 in order for Sonic Origin's Collection to be released.

Uncharted 1, 2, 3, God of War 3, Last of Part, were all specifically coded for PS3 hardware, and all received excellent ports to the PS4, there's nothing stopping Konami from doing the same on even more powerful hardware with the PS5.

Where there's a will, there's a way. Question is, does Konami have the will to make it happen? If Volume 1 sells well enough, I'd say its quite possible.

DarXyde350d ago (Edited 350d ago )

Didn't say it wasn't possible. If you distill the reasons I gave into simple points, it comes down to level of effort and red tape.

Also, pretty sure Sonic 3 was Michael Jackson. Ending sounds identical to Stranger in Moscow, Ice Cap sounds identical to Who is it, etc.

CobraKai350d ago

Volume 2 possibly 4 and Portables? I seriously got goosebumps after wondering where this bird was going and Snake appears.

Still more stealth than MGS5.

hay2898d ago (Edited 2898d ago )

They've actually put more effort in this pachi-ka-ching than MGS HD collection...

@KentBenMei below: Yeah, it's awesome. But look at those models and animations. Looks freaking good for an addict trap.

KentBenMei2898d ago

I think the MGS HD Collection was alright. The one for Vita, at least.

endzeitkind2898d ago

mouth animation is shit like what? dunno but it doesnt look good tho.
