Earlier today we came across a story that claimed an officially branded Metal Gear Solid 4 bluetooth headset. Game blog Kotaku reported the news bit, initially calling it fake and then claiming it was real and posting a marketing page for it. While the idea certainly isn't far-fetched, there are things that lead us to believe that this is, in fact, fake.
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker HD have been delisted from digital stores without warning.
Stupid headline. Should state that they are being updated or discontinued. This makes the crazy people that only read headlines think it some kind of conspiracy to take away peoples already purchased games.
If you want to all of a sudden own them now and haven't played them yet because a remastered is coming out, shame on you. I can't believe people are complaining about this 15 years later when it was bound to happen anyway. "A new remaster is out, quick, I'd better buy the original from the shop."
Gamers: "Physical? who needs physical? everyone knows that digital online games are the future. stop living in the past. we don't need no stinking disc drive"
Same gamers: "How dare the delist a digital game that I own!!!!"
And? What is your point?
Same gamers: "How dare the retailers to delist (quit selling) a physical game that I own!!!!"
I think you just read the headline and don't know how dilisting works with Sony. It's common knowledge that:
"Players who already bought the games will still have them in their library and can download and play them as usual."
So again, what is your point?
The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.
Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!
I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.
Funny you mention that... my son wanted to play some PS3 games in 3d on my PS tv and he was blown away by how good KZ3 was. It really was a great addition to the game. Im surprised there have not been more 3d games from that era being ported to the PSVR/VR2.
resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword
Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2
Killzone trilogy in VR would be amazing bonus points if they offer shadow fall.
There was a psvr1 Killzone project that supermassive was working on at one stage which wasn't up to scratch and Sony brand it back in house I was hoping we would see that on psvr2 eventually.
Personally I'd love to see some more love or acknowledgement of psvr2 from Sony in general it was a expensive headset and Sony barely acknowledge it's existence
The amount of work needed to remaster these games wouldn't be beneficial on a financial and business sense.. MGS4 would probably be the best bet as it would need the least amount of work!
The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer
The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.
Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱

NoooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooo oo!
I don't think the headset looks altogether very nice. My Jabra BT 125 works just fine. The headset I'm most looking forward to is the Socom: Confrontation headset. It's first party and looks pretty snazzy.
Am I alone in thinking this head set is fake and kinda lame. Reminds me of a special edition Halo Xbox 360...another example of lame.
Also, debating whether to buy a ps3 version of COD4. Already have the 360 version. PSN Username: undertheblue
it was real then fake then real now fake again. they should just make thier minds up
bummer.
you guys should read the comments on the bottom of the page, primarily 'mista' and 'solidus15'. they bring up some good points, such as 'mista' works for a video game store and says that their computer have a metal gear solid head set to come out the same day as the game and its $60, and then solidus goes to explain that the dimensions and weight are that of the packaged product, and thus the weight of .5lbs for the single package would make sense if it came with charger, case, etc. and the master packaging weighing in at 12lbs would be 12 single packages in one box. so it could very well exist, you just have to do the math and think logically about what goes into said package for the headset to make those numbers make sense.
it would help if there was an actually picture not a cgi... but i have faith that it will come out.
