Any idea when it might come out? Only played a couple of minutes of 4 on the cloud but always waited to see if they made some native versions.

 

[LakeOf9]

I do mean to directly compare. They're all about as flawed as 4.

Then I disagree and return to my original point

 

[Secret_Lover]

Hallelujah. I´m one of the weirdos who likes this game more than 2/3. Been waiting a fucking eternity to play it with acceptable performance.

Now watch it be locked 30fps.

Between April 1, 2024 and December 31, 2024. Next fiscal year but before the end of next calendar year.

 

[Badlucktroll]

I am interested in hearing how this game is being liberated from its ps3 prison

 

[TGO]

But it isn't used.

You're right, it's the MGS3 theme in the trailer.

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

I want Metal Gear Rising for Switch with motion control

 

[Feel Like I'm On 42]

So much for "it can only run on a ps3!!!"

We'll see how this actually turns out

 

[Feel Like I'm On 42]

Mgs4 while flawed was one of the best experiences during ps3/360 era

Back when games actually felt "next gen". The opening section was amazing...didn't quite maintain that level of greatness the whole way but it was still great

 

[DenchDeckard]

OK! Great move!

 

[Pharaoh 117]

We'll see how this actually turns out

We'll see IF it turns out. I'm not sure Konami will go through the trouble of porting it. I hope they do but I'll believe it when I see it.

 

[Bridges]

I remember being so blown away by the graphics of old Snake smoking his cigarette for an hour and a half. It was my first MGS and I had no idea what was going on but the game rules.

Can't wait to finally play it again on something modern.

 

[Shifty1897]

I can't even wait to see how you make MGS4 run on a Switch

Hot take but I don't think there's any chance Vol. 2 will come to Switch.

 

[Artistic]

My favorite MGS next to MGS2. I'll be ready.

 

[Shifty1897]

[onnextflix5]

I'll believe it when I see it, highly doubt it tho,

 

[adamsapple]

The Switch takes are a bit weird, a Switch is considerably more powerful than PS3/360. Technically it would be easy. Storage will be the only/big hurdle.

 

[Porcile]

Such a terrible game overall but I occasionally get a hankering to play at the least the first two chapters and the dumb ending. Everything in-between is so bad though.

 

[Topher]

 

[TGO]

Do you know what this means?

Spoiler

GAF GOTY2024

 

[MayauMiao]

I still have MGS4 for the PS3 sealed. Didn't play it because was too busy with other stuff and by the time I want to start playing it, by PS3 went YLOD.

 

[Pelao]

Literally the only reason I still keep my fat PS3 hooked up to my TV.
For the love of God, Konami, I hate you, but please do it. That way I can finally stop worrying about this fucking old console dying on me.

 

[Shtef]

Even though i am excited for mgs4 coming to newer consoles, i am even more excited about mgs5 receiving resolution bump on xbox from 900p to 4k hopefully. I started playing it few months ago but it was very blurry i had to drop it.

better than on the way less powerful PS3? especially if they keep the double buffer vsync, in which case it might even hit 60fps in some scenes

 

[LakeOf9]

PS3 is not "way less powerful" than Switch

 

[01011001]

PS3 is not "way less powerful" than Switch

uhm, less than half as powerful when compared to docked mode.
compared to handheld mode it's only slightly less powerful I guess

 

[Puscifer]

Given the amount of people that haven't played mgs4 this is a great decision.

I honestly feel like anyone who wantes to play MGS4 has

 

[bender]

Hopefully all the fonts get replaced with Comic Sans.

 

[CGNoire]

How about adding more actual gameplay why your at it.

 

[SALMORE]

i just want twin snakes

 

[Sub_Level]

How about adding more actual gameplay why your at it.

Offline mgo maps with option for bots would be cool (and I imagine pretty cheap to develop?) MGS4 really lacked singleplayer gameplay modes & missions that every other game in the series got.

 

[crazyriddler]

I miss that movie, glad to know I'll be able to see it again in 4k.

 

[Forsythia]

I welcome this. Will buy day one.

 

[Kamina]

i just want twin snakes

Twin Snakes being omitted from Vol.1 is a crime

 

[CherryFalls]

Will it finally be time to put my ps3 away? mgs4 is the only reason I still have it out

 

[RAIDEN1]

Metal Gear 4 was the reason I jumped onto the Playstation bandwagon for the very first time as I skipped the PS-One and 2....but I doubt I would get this Volume 2 just for this game, when the only other game of interest would have been Portable Ops, or Peace-walker, but Peace walker I already have, MGS5 is a pointless addition it's not even a decade old yet, and isn't difficult to play on today's systems.....Portable Ops is though..

 

[Bumblebeetuna]

I'll believe it when I see it.

 

[GreatnessRD]

Flat out, Konami. Flat the fuck out.

 

[TGO]

Didn't it get a One X patch?
The PS4 Pro did.

 

[dEvAnGeL]

The last game i went to a midnight launch for. My favorite MGS.

 

[Mister Wolf]

4 was the best one.

 

[sachos]

Shouldn't Portable Ops be part of the Vol 2 too or is that not important for the story?

 

[rkofan87]

i want mgr.

 

[Arsic]

I would cream if they threw in MGO with MGS4 as well.

Lost hundreds of hours in team sneak lol.

Happy to finally be able to play this again. Easy day one for me to play again.

 

[adamsapple]

Shouldn't Portable Ops be part of the Vol 2 too or is that not important for the story?

Well, this is all the reverence they've given to Portable Ops since it came out .. so .. I wouldn't hold my breath. But you never know

 

[Dream-Knife]

Now it can live forever on PC without the need for emulation.

 

[Kataploom]

So prepare for a 400 gb installation.


Nah jk, finally can play the franchise, gotta get up to date with some franchises.

 

[RagnarokIV]

It should be the motherfucken law that all games must have a PC release for that infinite backwards compatability.

 

[VAVA Mk2]

Given the amount of people that haven't played mgs4 this is a great decision.

I bought the fat PS3 bundle with MGS4. Was totally worth it.

 

[Moses85]

My favorite one I still have the ps3 disc
