If you really think about it, MGS1, 2 and 3 have small actual land masses, variety in enemies and such. The challenge is recreating the cinematics ... with Jack Bauers voice.... :-(


you know kojima is the guy who has that george lucas thing of wanting to be consistent across everything. he is a guy who hates the technological limitations and he wants to carry the old and archiac MGS games out of their wretched digital past.


MGS being about story, I think it's what he wants. I just wish he would have stuck with Hayter. It will never be the same!!
 
Why do people keep thinking this?

The absolute best fantasy-land scenario would be ONE game (probably MGS1) with new, current-gen art assets placed on top of the original MGS1 engine like 343 did with Halo Anniversary. And even then 343 has had to do it one game at a time.

you could hire 3 different teams to do it with him supervising all of them and sell them individually for 60 bucks per piece as a rollout over 3 years. It's not like Japanese devs have not been cashing it in heavily on ports in the last many years. SE in particularly.

I'm of a mind to believe that MGS2-4 will never need to be truly remastered. They are at at a level of fidelity that looks good with just a resolution increase.

MGS1 could be redone in the Fox engine with new models and textures, while retaining the isometric perspective and gameplay.

I'd imagine MGS6 will tread into MG1/2 waters anyways.

If I ever post something in Japanese which I don't understand, please BAN me.

If there is one game that gets remade with the Fox Engine it will be MGS1. Kojima said multiple times if there is a remake he would love to do it's MGS1.

The controls of MGS3 need to be redone. And needs crouch walking.

Holy shit if this comes out on PC I will play it ALL OVER AGAIN.

Shit it will be free money for you! Please do it!

That's great news IMHO. MGS1 is still one of my favourite games of ALL TIME.

If this a Xbox One, Playstation 4, & Steam release of the entire Metal Gear series, I would be SOOOOO happy.

I'll expect an art book to avoid disappointment.

Would be nice if The Twin Snakes finally made if off Cube, though I doubt it. If PO's got a remaster I'm not sure it would help the game. MGS4 in 60fps would also be pretty nice. A Rising PS4 port would be amazing, but I also see no reason why that wouldn't just be a stand alone release at this point.

I'll really only buy this collection if it's on the PS4 though.

Here's what I want:

PS4XB1 - MGS 2-4, PW Graphic Novel (think Kingdom Hearts HD), GZ
Vita - MGS 4, PO, PW, Ac!d 1-2

I'd imagine PS4/X1/PC are a lock at this point.

Yep. If they're going to release a new collection on current gen consoles, they may as well release them on PC as well. After all, the new consoles are as close to being a PC as you can possibly get without actually being a PC.

There's no way MGS 4 will ever come to Vita in any form that isn't remote play. It's a noble dream but an unrealistic one. I think Konami is done with the Vita anyway...

They really, really need to let you transfar your saves if this happens... I Platinum'd every Metal Gear game last-gen, and I don't know if I have that in me again.

Maybe I'm just remembering wishful thinking, but didn't the MGS Collection sell pretty well. It was the #1 Vita game for a few months when it came out.

MGS 1 remaster would be super sweet. Don't really personally care that much for others being HD-fied as IMO PS3 is ok for them (although I need to play MGS 4 again just to validate that :p).

Will keep expetations low though, we'll most likely see a Metal Gear Solid HD next gen HD collection. Or Ac!d on tablets.

I'm tempering my expectations and leaning towards it being disappointing. I'm hoping its a form of release on Steam though, due to that old rumor from a few years back.

I would absolutely love an updated remake of MG 1-2 and/or MGS in Fox Engine, though.
 
I hope that's it's going to be on Steam. I'm not a really big Metal Gear fan.

But having it and supporting it on Steam would be nice.

I'd this to be a Metal Gear collection of remakes, not including the "Solid" series. Just make Metal Gear 1 and 2 with a modern engine. It's long overdue.

Youll never see portable ops or twin snakes again, plus revengeance isn't considered a mainline MGS game so i wouldn't be shocked if it doesn't appear in future collections. also, if they're bundling GZ with anything it will be with TPP.

They are both canon and thus part of the story whether you like it or not.

Even Kojima himself touted about how important PO was to MGS4's story and how they couldn't finish MGS4's story without finishing PO's first.

Half the problem with Twin Snakes is that the Cutscenes are different. And again that's Kojima's fault. They originally made them 1:1 but Kojima told them to CHANGE them and do them differently.

Just because he didn't direct them, doesn't make them any less good or important. By that logic both ZOE games are turds because he didn't even do game design or direct either of those games.

"Metal Gear" Encompases everything that isn't a "mainline" game. So it's entirely possible.

All Kojima ever does is shit on PO. The beginning of Peace Walker basically touted it as completely unimportant and to "leave it behind".

Sorry if asked. While all the discussion on what it could be is getting me all hyped. What I want to know is when will they actually reveal what it is?
