Like they did with MGS 1 + VR and also MGS2: Substance on PC.

Would be cool, if so. I'm playing MGS 2: Substance now on the PC in 1600x900 widescreen with 16x AF and it runs at a rock solid 60fps at all times and is just stunning!

no

Do you mean no as in: someone asked them and they said no; or no as in: nothing has been announced. (?)

 

[CarlosX360]

No announcement - Best educated guess.

Kojima has confirmed its a PS2 exclusive, he said that it would take too much time to port over to the Xbox and PC which would delay MGS4.

or maybe microsoft will be allowed to port the game again (which they did for MGS1 PC)

Why should they? Sales would be abysmall.

Hopefully it happens.

How are you playing MSG2 in widescreen? It must be stretched, which sucks.

 

[shpankey]

it's not stretched. it is perfect widescreen. the option is built into the game by default. i just selected it.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Don't count on it. Now that Subsistence (and MGA2) is complete they're about to go into full development for MGS4 which is going to eat up the MGS staffs dev time.

That's cool... I can understand that. Anyhow, here's a pic I took just a sec ago of it in 1600x900 widescreen, although this isn't a very good scene with much interesting going on, it's where I'm at in the game so far...

 

[shpankey]

Wow, this game really kicks ass! I am loving it. Just ran into a vampire :lol though, which was pretty out there story wise. I like the story, even though it's pretty over the top (well, a lot over the top) but for some reason, I am having fun watching it unfold. The only parts that bother me are when like the marines stood around and watched one man kill everyone, including their C.O., which was pretty stupid. And then the Vamp spinning in circles to miss hundreds of bullets. :lol

One question, why is everyone (including the guys) wearing heavy black eye liner like they are teenage girls in the 80's? :lol

And Jack (err Raiden) kind of reminds me of the lead singer of Poison, the glam band from the 80's.

Are you sure that's not a glitch or something? I don't remember that in the PS2 version.

 

[shpankey]

Are you sure that's not a glitch or something? I don't remember that in the PS2 version.

Probably is, cause I had to turn down the Model Detail option to level 2 (out of 4 i think) in order for the game to display the character model's properly (if I go any higher they are invisible). It's a known bug in the PC version. So ya, it very well could be a glitch in the PC version.

It's not really a big deal, just kind of funny because I grew up in the 80's and this kind of takes me back a little.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Since you're in the Big Shell where's what the characters looked like there in the PS2 version

Weren't you playing the original MGS, or did you not get around to it?

 

[Funky Papa]

I think that SSX just has a bad memory

The entire cast looked like an 80's megagroup

 

[shpankey]

I never could get it to run in Hardware mode, remember? Also, Twin Snakes won't get here till later today (Monday afternoon). So I went ahead and started playing this. I couldn't help myself, once I started I am having too much fun to stop.

Also, I snapped a pic of the eyeliner from my version [PC with Model Detail set on level2]...

Not the best pic, but since I'm not currently on a cutscene, it's the only way to get a shot of it. It's even more pronounced on the cutscene's.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Well yah I notice it in those shots. It must not happen in all cutscenes then. I never really noticed it in the game.

shpankey, so are you in the Raiden hate group or not? With you not playing MGS first I guess there's a chance you won't hate him like alot of people who played MGS first do.

 

[shpankey]

I definitely hold no hate to him at all. I'm loving this game... nothing seems bad about playing him at all to me.

p.s. i'm currently VERY confused about the character Snake, story wise I mean. I'm absolutely lost. :lol ie: good guy/bad guy, alive/dead, hero/terrorist, etc. etc. And of course, now I meet Plisken, who is obviously Snake... err, I think. But I figure it will all sort itself out later.

 

[Funky Papa]

You should play the game again. It is a constant in the modern MGS games, it was pretty evident in Snake Eater. I was amazed by the skanky looks of the MGS3 cast :lol

 

[Naked Snake]

Can't wait to see your reaction when you reach the last areas of the game *evil grin*
