It's fanboy friday at the X Button, and this week we're celebrating 25 years of the legendary Solid Snake.
Konami producers hint at potential plans to bring Metal Gear Solid 4 to modern platforms but stop short of confirming any release.
Out of all Solids, MGS4 would be my top favorite game to be gotten remade. That opening scene with up-to-date graphics and physics? Oh hell yeah.
Preferrably with FOX Engine, but sadly Konami seem to have dumped it.
I really do believe that if this engine could have went with Kojima or someone else away from Konami, FOX Engine could have been great for licensing to others, too.
It doesn't need to be remade. A simple reamstered could be sufficient and quicker. I hope they bring peace walker and MGS4 in 1 combo collection (peace walked would be the 1 that could benefit a lot from a remake though since it was a portable system game and hasn't aged as gracefully)
It was designed for the PS3 though, to the best of my admittedly limited knowledge, due to the PS3 architecture, porting games isn't straightforward. I imagine a remake would just make more sense assuming MGS 3 is a success.
@papabop it was already running on xbox, but because of the size of the game they chose not to release it on xbox. If Konami had that build stored somewhere it would be easier to port, but I would not bet that Konami has anything stored from MGS properly.
Heck, I don't even know what that engine was that had run MGS4 or where it's now.
But somewhere that code must have been gotten stored and locked.
I dunno if it's easily able to just getting remastered.
MGS4 is in a very difficult to work with cage I assume.
MGS4 looked so fckn good when it came out. I was blown away. Definitely in my top 5 of all games. So upset I sold my copy and my ps3 smfh.
Man i'd just be happy to have it on pc at 4k 60fps. One of my favorite Mgs movies i mean games.
I would love remakes of MG1 and 2 and MGS1. MG1 and 2 would kind of be new games though.
I was always hoping that Kojima would have done a modern remake of MG1 and 2 back when he was at Konami.
Remember buying MGS4 when it came out, I was 13, I couldn't believe how good it looked, thought graphics couldn't get better than this 😅
Fingers crossed they remake it, I'm sure they will, they'll see the dollar signs.
I was 22 and felt the same
I got the collector's edition, and was amazed the entire game
I still have the collector's edition somwhere
one of my all time favourite games ever
I was 25 and getting the PS3/MGS4 bundle was my reintroduction into gaming after being out for almost a decade. That particular model of PS3 was also the last to have PS2 backwards compatibility. Lots of fond memories with it. This is why the PS3 is still my favorite console and generation.
Dang, u missed the original God of War when it first came out. I think I have top series, not even top 5 games. MGS and God Of War are definitely in my top 5. So many great life influencing games(im not a killer). FF10... dang I love video games.
Metal Gear Solid 4's iconic installation screen has been turned into an animated wallpaper for Wallpaper Engine.
I’m giving you an upvote to counter wherever that downvote came from.
Classic line!
I think it's coming after MGS3 remake. We will most likely get MGS collection 2
To me MGS4 was the final of the Metal Gear saga. It was the last MGS game that felt true to Hideo, long cutscenes, convoluted but entertaining story. And a focus into what he wanted to say.
MGSV was open world, felt empty, the story primarily progressed through tapes because a) you can tell Konami was pushing him b) fans called for short clips l cutscenes
"the story primarily progress through tapes because..."
Explain Peace Walker's same design.
Timestamp anyone? I'm not watching a 20 min video to hear a single quote about mgs4
If you're replaying MGS1 in any of its available forms, you'll want to know how to unlock all the best items in the game!
