Some may believe that this game is a simple port but during a promotion event for Metal Gear Solid HD Collection Hideo Kojima (Developer of the Metal Gear Solid Series)
Konami will temporarily remove Metal Gear Solid 2 and Metal Gear Solid 3 from digital storefronts starting November 8 as it works to renew the licenses for select historical archive footage used in each game, the company announced.
To be honest, I’m surprised Konami are even considering re-listing this given how they’ve abandoned their franchises and fans.
Maybe temporarily will become permanently.
Just started MGS 3 over the weekend.
Wouldn't have affected me since I bought the collection a long time ago.
I'm more interested in the fact that they have to re-license historical footage constantly. At what point is it not worth it anymore? I can't imagine a lot of people are buying MGS Collection.
How to get engaged with 2s story ? , can't get through the ship without quiting the game literally since forever.
Metal Gear Solid 3 is one of the greatest games of all time, and Konami is giving it a remaster with the FOX Engine! Sort of....with Pachinko. RGT 85 isn't too pleased with this decision!
I still can't believe Konami is doing all this. It's like they're intentionally trolling us at this point.
It looks so beautiful too...not that the original MGS3 looks bad (seriously go emulate that shit it's still a damn good looking game) but these remastered parts look phenomenal!
They are testing to see how angry fans are then offer It on consoles.
I am done with Konami for the way they have behaved.
Rich Stanton:
"Metal Gear Solid 2 ended with an explosion of questions. In creating a game that questioned its own status as a game, Kojima had opened countless essentially insoluble plot threads. The most pressing one was: what next? Hideo Kojima initially tried to avoid directing Metal Gear Solid 3, or so the talk goes. He did not."
lol good one bro
well its still a port in my mind in terms of the story assuming thats not change and the only thing being change is the gameplay and the graphics
i was going to get this but if its not different in story then i dont need too since the HD collection will do just fine
yea, just like Skyrim uses a new engine...
Looked like a port with 3D added to me. Doesn't look as good as the PS2 version and clearly not as good as MGS3 HD. I have a 3DS and definitely won't be picking this game up.
I managed to play this so-called remake at Eurogamer Expo this year. The graphics of this version are not as good looking as the early MGS3D tech demo. The early tech demo featured updated graphics including better textures, better lighting more detailed character models etc.
However, when I played the most recent demo of MGS3D, it was clearly a port of MGS3. The graphics were the same or worse than the original MGS3. And the framerate was also bad. I'm not sure if these issues will be sorted out for release but the playable demo at Eurogamer completely put me off getting this game and I'm simply going to play the HD port instead.
