I want the 360 version for some reason. I have mgs1, 2, and 3 plus the essential collection release all on ps1 and 2. Hope it's a decent port because I'm going to take a chance with it.

Most of the time, I switched to the overhead camera for sneaking up on a guy because the camera is a bit better for doing that than the third-person camera.

MGS2 and 3 use face buttons for shooting. Shoulder buttons are used for weapons and items management.

Negative. The port was handled by bluepoint.

Ah that's right, there's still Peace Walker though!

No duh, the issue here is how will they port over the controls as both the PS2 and the Xbox had pressure sensitive face buttons.

At worst, the bumper would be used to cancel aiming like The Twin Snakes.

my PS3 LE order one amazon with 1 day shipping says estimate delivery nov 10th. I ordered on oct 18th.

Meh, I don't want to pay 1 day shipping. I'm gonna assume Amazon is assuming the worst on shipping because of Veteran's Day weekend. I usually get packages within a day on 2 day shipping...

I kind of wish it wasn't coming out next week. Too many games at once :/

Looking at the trophies... not even going to attempt Platinum.

I wonder if anyone has managed to get the Limited Edition early. I'm interested in seeing how big that artbook is and what art it has in it.

They've been announced for PSN and XBLA (surely they mean GoD) in Japan; MGS2&3 are even day-and-date with the boxed copy on the PS3. Nothing announced outside of Japan, though.

Japanese devs put ridiculous achievements into their games. After seeing the list for this set I instantly forgave them for not adding trophies to mgs4. They would have been terrible.

Why shouldn't achievements be hard to get?

Does it look difficult to get a decent percentage of the trophies, say 50%? I know I won't won't platinum or 100% most of my PS360 games, but if a game makes it very difficult to get any trophies then that's kind of a turn off.

Hmmm most of these trophies don't look so bad. Getting all dog tags might sound annoying but it's more of a timesink than anything else, and if you're comfortable on the higher difficulties you can easily clear the game(s) in 4 hours or less. Clearing all VR Missions will be legit hard because those MGS1 Snake weapons missions are no joke. MGS3's Kerotan hunting is a bitch too.

I can't speak for Peace Walker but MGS2 and MGS3 platinums are pretty reasonable.

Peace Walker is going to be time-consuming, but it could have been a billion times worse if they wanted you to do anything with the codenames.

You can "grind" for S ranks with a buddy in coop though, also having full dual analog controls should make things a great deal easier.

For some reason I'm most interested in playing Peace Walker when I get this collection. It'll probably be the one game with the most improvements.

You're telling me, I have something like 8 games to play and platinum, and I still wanna get U3, RDR GOTY, Batman AA, Skyrim, MW3, and this. That is if I'm not forgetting anything. I guess that's why I can wait until I can find those games for cheap.

As far as trophies, I'll try to platinum all 3.

snake rides the motorcycle with Eva and you have to shoot while moving at 50 mph

I agree with Peace Walker since it mostly has grind achievements

but in the case of MGS2 and 3 all of the hard achievements are tied to content that was in the original games

I'm not looking forward to kerotan runs either, but I kind of appreciate that MGS2 and 3's trophy packs are tied to a majority of the game content, instead of leaving out the really hard stuff so everyone has a chance to get an easy platinum.

That's how it should be. To get a platinum you should have to do everything in the game

Kojima, why cancel Christmas for Europe? These screens are really making consider importing.... Has there been any mention of added extras for the PAL version? Euro Extreme anyone? Koji has precedence here....

Something's wrong here... Solid Snake is not the main character in any of these games.

Anyways, I can't wait to play these again for trophies. It really does change the game quite a bit.

"also, looking at the in game manuals, looks like Demo Theater & Briefing files unlock, Extreme and European Extreme unlock in MGS3"

"also extreme and european extreme in mgs2 are unlockable"

Hopefully there will be something else as an extra so I can double dip!

So Transfarring is only relating to the Vita, right?

I still don't understand if I can use my PSP save file on the HD version of Peace Walker...
