MGS 1 - 4 + PW on PS4/XBONE/PC

I want to believe but I just can't bring myself to believe that... because...

I'm sure this will be catastrophically disappointing, so I'm going to stop thinking about it right now.

:'(

This.

That would make sense.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

Personally I think it's a toy collection/clothing swag.. What I want is next gen/ PC collection.

 

[Maxim726X]

How many fucking times is this guy going to release a collection for this series?

Fuck man.

 

[LegoArmo]

How many fucking times is this guy going to release a collection for this series?

Fuck man.

As many times as I'll buy it.

Fuck man.

As many times as people keep buying them? I never bought any of the previous collections, but I'm all in on this one if it comes to PC.

 

[jacksepticeye]

Oh please be PC. MGS3 PC would expel all my loads

Yeah, and I keep buying the fucking things.

I'm more angry at myself than anything else... Because I am compelled to buy the same game half a dozen times.

 

[Percy]

Actually, the fact that it's seemingly something due 2014 would probably mean it isn't a game related thing (Too late in the year for it, seeing how much Kojima loves his long build ups to game releases). Merchandise would seem most likely.

 

[Alien Bob]

I totally believe that some kind of Metal Gear collection will hit Steam sooner or later, and I'll snatch that shit up when it does, but I don't think this is anything.

 

[PLASTICA-MAN]

They did replace the Playstation with a GameCube in Twin Snakes so I am not sure why they cannot do the same for MGS4.

They will have to even remove the entire Metal Gear Mark 2 and 3: Read my past comment.

 

[PrinceOfWhatever]

New generation, pal.

and I'm totally fine with that.

 

[Sectorseven]

Question can MGS4 be on other platforms? They'd certainly have to edit some things and what not if it went multiplat lol.

If they had any sense they recorded alternate lines way back during the original dubbing sessions. But ultimately I don't think it really matters. The Playstation references are brief and they'd only have to remove any logos.

There is the blu ray reference (would be weird for digital/steam release version but can be overlooked), the references to the cell processor, and other stuff like the fact that they might need to either relicense the ingame official apple ipod or just remove it altogether, depending on how that license worked. that's not counting the work to alter the controller for non-PS platforms and other stuff that i'm not remembering now.

It's doable, but it's more work than just porting the game and getting it to 1080p/60 fps.

I only just started Metal Gear Solid 3 last week. Announce the Steam version so I can start over please, along with all the others!!

I completely forgot about that. I would say it would make sense, but they did originally approve it before cancelling, and I'd assume they would have known before hand of any remake on their end. Could be wrong though, and that would be very pleasant a surprise!

A chance to play Peace Walker on PS4? :0

if Konami ended up buying it and then releasing it as part of this, that would be so rad.

Assuming the animations aren't tied to frame rate, a PC/current-gen port could be the first time MGS3 and 4 are at 60 FPS.

 

[VisceralBowl]

MGS3 was 60 FPS on PS3/360. I also think MGS4 was unlocked, and it could go to 60 (in rare scenarios).

isnt MGS3 on the HD collection for PS3/360 60fps?

Should have reread the Digital Foundry article before I posted!

 

[DevilFox]

Whatever that screen refers to, another collection is inevitable and predictable. And another one after that. Personally I'm very pissed off at Konami right now, they're overdoing it with MGS.

 

[Rogue Agent]

MGS4 at a locked 60fps & native 1080p would be great. Also, I believe the HD collection games were all just 720p so we could get a resolution bump to 1080p on all of them even though they already ran at 60 frames.

Simple solution is don't buy them, no?

 

[Visualante2]

V on PC without the previous games makes no sense. I hope it is coming to Steam.

Not really, MGS4 has never been on any platform except ps3, tons of people have missed it, even if the only new addition to the collection was MGS4 it would be a worthwhile decision cause it allows a greater number of people to get caught up before MGSV comes out. Makes plenty of sense and is a smart decision to gear up people who have missed out (PC, Xbox) Definitely not worth getting pissed over, you don't have to buy it.

MGS1 has also never made it to an Xbox, I know a few people who enjoy MGS but have only played whats in the HD collection.

 

[Alo81]

OH man, the full collection on PC would totally convince me to finish my journey through the series.

MGS4 PC!

 

[Killing_Joke]

Skipped the legacy collection. Will buy for PS4 to double dip the trophies. Getting mgs2 and mgs4 platinum again makes me want to cry though.

 

[nictron]

I'm not sure if I have more money to give Kojima, yet he keeps demanding.

 

[TheF1BOB]

Ghost Babel included would make this an instant buy.

Spoiler

I'm buying this regardless.

 

[liquidtmd]

I was 360 last gen and PS4 this gen, so missed out on MGS4 and the ability to play MGS1 again for the first time in a decade

Make it so Kojima!

 

[synce]

MGS4 on PC sounds way too good to be true

 

[DevilFox]

Simple solution is don't buy them, no?

Obvious answer. Don't worry, I'm not going to until they release one single, complete collection of high value after MGSV like Square Enix did with FF and its 25th anniversary.
I'll wait 2017, they'll do something for the 30th anniversary. Hopefully something serious.

A collection for every addition is smart for Konami, not for us. As I said, I'm waiting for one, single, complete and well packaged collection. As a fan, it's the treatment I expect for such a historic franchise.
All these collections seem to have a very poor value to me. They can be good for the new players (more or less, there's always something missing..) but that's true for every collection or remaster done so far of games that are not even close to the importance of MGS.
MGS should be treated better, what I see is Konamy trying to suck everything out from it (and the fans) at every possible chance.

This is actually what I first thought of too.

Expand your expectations! With an arbitrary frame rate and resolution, I'd imagine even MGS4 would be fairly easy to run at 4K.

You know, this alone makes PC version of MGS4 a must.

I fucking hate that moustache

 

[Corpsepyre]

Guys, what if it's a full-fledged remake....of all the games, and to be released on Xbone, PS4 and PC?

I think I'd die right then and there.

 

[Vigilant Walrus]

All MGS games remade with MGS5 quality graphics?

 

[dan2026]

I'd love to play a MSG4 where you don't have to install every chapter before you can play them.

What were they thinking?

and then you woke up.

 

[AuthenticM]

OH. MY. GOD.

I would buy it yet again. And if we get MGS4 in 1080p at locked 60fps... man.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Boy is it going to be disappointing when it turns out to just be Metal Gear 1 and 2, and none of the Solid games.

 

[RedSwirl]

All MGS games remade with MGS5 quality graphics?

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.

 

[Shin-Ra]

Come on. Let's do this.

Get HexaDrive on the job.
