Sure, I lived through the PS1 years, but I only owned a few Final Fantasy Games, Street Fighter, and maybe Ridge Racer. With the release of Metal Gear Solid 4 a few years back, I was surprised at the response and fangirl-ism displayed by my better half. "Amazing!" she exclaimed.
So, wanting to add another thing my wife and I both enjoy, I decided to start at the beginning and buy Metal Gear Solid off PSN. This review is coming from someone who missed it the first time around and thus is looking at it with fresh eyes, untainted by nostalgia."
These groundbreaking video games changed gaming forever and drew in scores of fans in the process.
From first-person espionage thrillers to the original installments of beloved franchises, check out the greatest retro video games we recommend for anyone.
I’d have taken a few of those out. Prefer Sonic over Sonic 2. Outrun should be in there. Maybe even Pong as millions of people had fun with that even if it was repetitive. Final Fight pipped any Streets of Rage game, although Streets of Rage had the better soundtrack. Too many to list l guess. To me, retro gaming is the 1980s, maybe going into early 1990s.
Agree that the generational gap is too broad to really make a strong list. Need to tighten the years a bit. Hard to compare Pac Man with N64 games.
Get a glimpse at how the remake of Metal Gear Solid 3 will be updated through the use of Unreal Engine 5.
It looks wonderful visually. Frame rate is very inconsistent though, and definitely running sub-30's at times. I get that this is an alpha version. I just hope we can hit a locked 60 on the final release. Also, I kind of wish they'd expanded the areas a bit. Might feel a bit odd going through these sections that are still clearly going to be on a PS2 scale in size.
They should expand where necessary and I really hope they do justice to this remake. IMO this remake should be top tier like dead space, resident evil 2 & 4 and demon souls
I am speaking quality wise
I mean, you can say that to yourself while you're drugged up on Xbox pills. Changes nothing. :)
"Insulted" — says the guy running around like a headless chicken trying to convince folks to care about his favorite box. Ok champ!
If you actually have a counter argument to this being a multiplatform game and how "A multiplatform adventure in the jungle" was a "nasty reply", I'm all ears.
I'll even help you... what is the counter to this being a multiplatform game and why is that a nasty reply?
I was never in any argument or debate. You accused me of being on xbox pills. That was a nasty reply. I am done here. Not going to waste my time here
I mean, if someone responds to you with a factual correction and you reply with "Xbox xbox xbox", I'm not sure what kind of response should be expected.
If someone replied with "Ps ps ps", I'm sure you would wonder what is going on, especially if nothing wrong was said to you.
A factual correction?? What the..? I'm very confused here What were you correcting?
I thought you were done? :P
Answer: it's just as much a PlayStation/PC adventure as it is Xbox.
So i hurt your feelings by not mentioning Playstation/pc on an Xbox event article correct?
Hurt MY feelings? Once again, if someone replies with "Xbox xbox xbox", it's clear that they are affected by something more than they should be. You then double down with some BS about N4G (like this place is immune to trash talked about anyone else but them).
Plus, I thought you were leaving? You can't help yourself. XD
Because, at the moment, the most technically problematic and disappointing games run on it. 540p upscaled next gen goodness.
Disappointing if resolution is a huge deal for you.
Personally, I feel a re-tooled FOX Engine would have done great. If it was a PS5/PC only title, I think Decima would have been an excellent choice.
Ah MGS, still my favourite of the series and my second favourite game ever. I really ought to do another playthrough sometime again, if I remember correctly I am at the communications tower, and every time I go back to replay that part I keep forgetting there is a camera in front of me and I walk right into it and proceed the long stair-flight climb with enemies on me from the first second heh. I wish we could go back to MGS games with the awesomeness of that game.
Good to see newbies to the series replaying the older games after playing the likes of MGS4 and Peace Walker though, the likes of MGS(1) are just too good to miss out on.
MGS1 is easily my favorite game in the series. While the other games are incredible, I don't think I'll ever get tired of playing MGS1 and meeting the characters all over again.
And the harrier fight with Liquid....OMG that was amazing for its time! I remember shitting bricks when I first played through that part. :O
though MGS 1 is awesome and I played it a lot of times, MGS 3 still is my favorite :) (I only didn't play Peace walker, but will, when I'll get a HD collection) :)
Cant wait to relive the memories when the HD collection comes out!
The first time i played MGS is when i saw "!" above enemy soldier who spotted me. And the music who got's my heart pump trying to search some place to hide xD
