This metal gear rumors are since forever. I’m so tired of it. I’ll wait until the actual announcement comes without reading any more rumors. But here I am, posting in a rumor thread.

 

[Jinzo Prime]

I still think they should AAA remake Metal Gear 1 and 2 with David Hayter as Solid Snake and Kiefer Sutherland as Big Boss. Thats like my dream game

I think remaking two games at a time makes since so you would have:

• MGS3 Snake Eater and Peace Walker
• MGSV Ground Zeroes & The Phantom Pain
• Metal Gear 1 & 2
• MGS and MGS2
• MGS4 and Metal Gear Rising

Each pair being a different release. Metal Gear 1 & 2 would need a complete re-imagining, of course, Rising just a remaster, MGSV a next gen patch. That would cover the entire story and every era of it.

I'm so tired of being jerked around by Metal Gear Solid rumors and teases. Please let this be the last one. Next

Rising 2?

I could see a studio like Sony Bend doing a Metal Gear 1 and 2 re-imagining

 

[HYDE]

Please, please not Rising related.

Fuck off bitch…Lol! Please go away.

No thanks…Bend sucks balls.

 

[BossLackey]

I wish I could get excited about a new MG project. I think Rising II would be the best option, so hopefully that's what it is.

I just find it mind blowing that Konami all but ceased development for the better part of a decade, and abandoned their IPs to pachinko land, yet now suddenly they still somehow have the capacity to pump out a dozen exciting looking game announcements for their key franchises

Maybe Sony was going to buy them and encouraged them to bring everything back, but can’t now till Activision Blizzard is settled, but Konami still has to make the announcements…

 

[HYDE]

Rising sux, a new MG Rising game isnt worth the time for an MGS fan.

Anyone that isn’t completely ignorant realizes this was never meant to play like MGS. It’s a side story about Raiden and plays like a kickass ninja game.
Shit opinion fyi…

 

[Jinzo Prime]

I could see a studio like Sony Bend doing a Metal Gear 1 and 2 re-imagining

Any of Sony's first-party studios could handle a Metal Gear Re-imagining quite easily; Naughty Dog, Suckerpunch, Sony Santa Monica, Bluepoint, Guerilla, hell even XDev. Outside of Sony, Ubisoft's big studios could also pull it off easily with some supervision, IO interactive, maybe Capcom?

 

[Naked Lunch]

Fuck all remakes. The originals are perfection.

I want to see new Metal Gear titles. There HAS to be young game designers out there who grew up on the franchise and would do it justice - or at least other talented, established devs to take the reigns.

The pressure will be high - but with care the franchise could flourish again. Its kinda like how other writers hop aboard a particular established comic character for their run, their own spin. Daredevil's Frank Miller, to Bendis, to Brubaker, to Zdarsky (as an example) - surly Kojima cant be the only one to tell good Metal Gear stories.

 

[Knightime_X]

Port Metal Gear Solid 4 to other platforms, and update / remaster Revengence.

 

[Kerotan Frog]

Because it is Quinton making the comment, I'm inclined to believe its Rising 1 port and Rising 2. I really want the MGS remake and the MG1 and MG2 reimagining though. But after seeing the pachinko footage, I still dream of an MGS3 remake. Its my favorite game of all time, and we deserve to play that footage!

Also, can we get MGS4 off of PS3 purgatory? I have a ps3 around just to play the series.

 

[Raonak]

METAL GEAR SOLID 4 REMAKE FOR PLAYSTATION 5 PLEASE I NEED THIS

 

[Badlucktroll]

I can't believe that while Metal Gear as we know it is over, we may be playing the classics with modern graphics soon. However, i feel that they are going to make Snake's design look like a real person. He's usually pretty stylized looking.

 

[SlimeGooGoo]

[BlakeofT]

Rising 2?

PLEASE

 

[CJ_75]

I hope he looks like me. I mean as my avatar. Snake is ripped as F, I'm fat.

 

[Icymanipulator]

Hope the rumors are true. A remake of MGS1 would be glorious

 

[TGO]

Whatever they announce, I'm sure it'll be Solid

 

[rabbity-thing]

oh how exciting, *another* remake that taints the original

Remakes don't really originals. For all the hate that Twin Snakes gets, it never taints the original PSX classic. To be honest, I think it's actually put the OG on an even higher pedestal.

 

[Power Pro]

Please, please not Rising related.

Just offering you my support since there are so many fools posting get out gifs. Rising is not the kind of game I go to as a Metal Gear fan...and the writing was seriously terrible.

 

[delfrickintree]

Well, when Konami brought back Silent Hill, instead of focusing on one game, it seems they decided to make 10 games and shoot for the moon.

Maybe its the same for MGS? The first game remake will be the star, but maybe they will be remastering other games, like Rising?

I would prefer the shotgun approach since thered be more of a chance to please everyone. Im picky as hell so i surely wouldnt like their go for broke mega mgs6 release. Like how ff7 has a bunch of versions and offshoots, or even wh40k with its multi genre spread.

I played the msx versions of mg1 & 2 back in the day. Those would be cool to see updated, just not overdone AAA level cringe.

 

[GHound]

Metal Gear Surivive 2 so we can finally get rid of all the fucking tourists that have latched on to this franchise.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance Remastered for PS4/PS5, Switch, Xbox and PC.
Metal Gear Solid Remastered Collection including Twin Snakes, MGS2, MGS3 and MGS4 for the same platforms as above, with Metal Gear, Snake's Revenge, Solid Snake and Ghost Babel included as bonuses.
As for the original MGS1? You will get that as an emulated classic for PS4/PS5, instead. The same with VR Missions, Acid 1-2, Portable Ops and Peace Walker.
PS5 and Xbox Series next-gen upgrades for Ground Zeroes and Phantom Pain, along with Switch ports.
Aaaaaand, the Metal Gear Solid 1 remake that seems to be highly rumored for PS5.
Basically everything but new games.

 

[VAVA Mk2]

Timing seems to suggest it might be xbox.

It's January..time for another XBox purchase announcement

Kojima said himself after MGS2 he wanted to pass MGS onto a new generation of creators. That was 20 years ago and when he wasn't so silly with his writing. Now he's finally moved on & can be as wacky as he wishes with DS, MGS in the hands of more rationale creators might be a blessing after all...

As long as they're not young, woke & straight out of college that is.

[Coconutt]

 

[YukiOnna]

Man, I hope it's a Rising game.
I don't really care if it's a mainline MGS game since Kojima won't be involved and that sentiment doesn't change even if 5 had issues. A remake or something would be the only acceptable option.

 

[Jesb]

MGS3 remake would the best announcement. Please.

 

[Griffon]

I was ready to completely give up on Platinum. But Rising 2 would be exactly what brings me back.
Besides, more Rising would be the best way to continue a post-Kojima MGS series for Konami.

Bring it on!

 

[EverydayBeast]

After MGS5 it was death stranding you have to ride that AAA wave.

 

[DonF]

Please don't do this to me, I can't handle more disappointment.

 

[Badlucktroll]

I have a feeling that if Kojima stayed with Konami and made MGS 6, it would have been like Death Stranding, but with Big Boss trying to connect and build Outer Haven or something

 

[A.Romero]

I really really like MGS as in pretty much the only games I have purchased several times, including special editions. However, I don't see a MGS remake working unless is change drastically REmake2 style. I really hope they do and they don't fuck it up, though.

 

[//DEVIL//]

Rising 2?

Honestly one of the best action games I have played all my life. and the only game I replayed and finished 4 times and I still feel like playing it again every now and then.

amazing character design, nice story, amazing villains, amazing soundtrack. just a pure perfection.
