Great to have the option, just like with FF Pixel Remaster. I will probably devour the original Metal Gear Solid on day one!

Tacoboto331d ago

I'll be guilty rebuying the full trilogy again.

Still one of my best gaming memories was getting the OG trilogy package before MGS4, and finishing them all right before that

VersusDMC330d ago

It better have the single game option if vol2 includes MGS5. It would suck to have to buy MGS5 again just to get MGS4.

sadraiden331d ago

It's true. You can go out right now and get a copy of MGS for PS1 for $10, MGS2 you can probably find for a buck, and 3 is the golden goose of the series, so that one might be $20 for a copy of subsistence. Or you can go get the HD collection for $10 for PS3/360. What you don't need to do is support Konami cashing in on Kojima's team's actual hard work and passion because they refuse to make new games.

Only buying MGS2 as that is the peak of the series imo.
MGS1 is too outdated, played through it once, never again. MGS3 is too long and bloated.

KyRo331d ago

The series as a whole is goated(if you pretend MGSV doesn't exist) but I too loved MGS2 the most followed by MGS1, MGS4 then last MGS3. Everyone loves the third game but it's by far the weakest but everyone loves it.

fsfsxii331d ago

For real, MGS3 considering the setting and mechanics was definitely intended to be a different game altogether, then had to be retrofitted to fit into the MGS timeline. MGS2 is truly the game Kojima wanted to make out of his own volition thats why it feels good to play. In terms of narrative, its eerily prescient which i find makes it age much better than the snake eater.
I think the main reason people dislike it is because of Raiden.
As for MGSV, yeah, that was trash, he was contractually obligated to make it and you can feel his disdain for it, because Death Stranding fared much better imo.

2 is my favorite numbered game. Is also the first one I played.
Peace Walke is overall fave though. How they crammed that onto PSP is nothing short of a miracle.

GoodGuy09331d ago

Not sure why they didn't decide to just remake the first game.

Chard330d ago

Based opinion, I hope the recent Subsistence camera mod will work with the Steam version of MGS2.
Curious how MGS1 will compare to the GOG version, and how they'll handle Psycho Mantis but not interested enough to play it.
For MGS3 I'll prioritise the remake.

jkuli6331d ago

Was hoping for this in physical format, but oh well.

Darkwatchman331d ago

How does one get so many downvotes for stating a fact? This collection is getting a physical release. I don’t see what there is to dislike

Knushwood Butt330d ago

I think it is fans of another box.
There's another thread where I state Tango Gameworks is a Japanese dev under Microsoft and it had close to 30 disagrees last time I looked.

IDK, man. People have opinions HA!

Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol.1 Review - Duuro

Duuro says: "I still like that this Master Collection exists, despite its flaws. It's definitely a time-capsule and if you are hungry to experience the brilliant stealth-action saga on modern consoles, you will find much to love. But you still have to remember that this is just a re-release and what was good back then in terms of controls, might feel rather alien nowadays."

Question is what patch data is on the disc?

Nyxus80d ago

Yeah that's what I'm wondering too. Hopefully it will be tested by doesitplay.org

It’s almost like Metal Gear is a well known franchise

just_looken111d ago

Horrible news more proof todays "gamer" is just a cow ready to be milked.

That mgs collection is no better than my ps3 copy but my ps3 copy has 0 server restrictions i always roll my eyes when reviewers or these new "youtube gamer" channels show off the information books on a webpage via a trash in game browser or the lack of controller support like it s a good thing.

Also GOG still has a better version mgs 1 or use the duck ps1 emulator.

Well time for the peace walker remaster pc port 480p 20fps needs a rtx 3090 or 6900xt to run with dunovo konami account then a govt id check.

just_looken110d ago (Edited 110d ago )

All the bonus content on the new collection needs a konami server to load them up if you pull your lan cord only the games will work but that is temp as those games are digital goods.

When i said digital i know there is a disc version games are on the disc i was referring to the pc version and the patches after the fact but yes ps5 has a disc version.

Here is the online bit
