Metal Gear Solid: The Complete Guide

On newsstands right now is PlayStation: The Official Magazine's Metal Gear Solid: The Complete Guide.

Sev1512 writes:
So many times before, I have been duped by the hype of a game or console, into purchasing a "launch guide" or an "all you need to know about (insert game/console here)". I always finish reading the publication with a poor taste in my mouth. Nothing but recapped articles from previous issues, and pages upon pages of already seen screenshots.

Well I am here to tell you that this one is different.

Sure it has some of the aforementioned "previous articles", it even has some old interviews with Hideo Kojima. But its the new editorial content, mixed in with detailing the MGS time line and characters that truly set this publication aside from the rest.

Some of the more original content features stories about Johnny Sasaki, Rose, and Raiden. Even a new interview with Kojima.

The Complete Guide is just that. It recaps the whole Metal Gear Series, all the characters, all the sequels, all the spin offs, all the emotions, all the thoughts provoked while playing these masterpieces.

The Metal Gear Saga DVD Vol 2. did a good job of briefly recapping the series, and providing quick backgrounds to some of the characters, and plot. However if you are looking for a more detailed version of that, then surely you should pick up this guide. In fact, if you cannot find it…. hunt it down.

OH NO...Spoilers are going to start flooding the internet now

Sev6517d ago (Edited 6517d ago )

Its pretty much spoiler free.
But your right. Spoilers have already hit, and will continue to hit.

Sev6517d ago

Or were you thinking this was a strategy guide of some sort?

AlterEgo6517d ago

how much is it?

i'm pickin' it up tomorrow

Sev6517d ago

$9.99 and well worth it.

Steve Urkel6517d ago

I got mine at Barnes and Nobles.

Did I do that?

Sev6517d ago

OMG its Steve Urkel.

What the hell have you been doing all these years?

40cal6517d ago

I will be picking this up tomorrow.

Mr_Kuwabara6517d ago

LMAO at Steve Urkel, nice name dude LOL!!!!

Anyway, I know that this is a tad bit off topic but I'm still getting that damn 090B:00000001 error code and it's pissing me off!

I have a bloody legit U.S. beta from the reserved MGS Saga CD keys and I keep on getting the same error. I live in the Caribbean (Puerto Rico, U.S. to be exact) and I keep on getting the same error. I did not lie in where I live at (At first I put United States, but then it gave me an option to specify at what state, there was Alabama etc and Puerto Rico was on the list so der I choose P.R.) when I created my Game ID/Konami ID, I updated to 1.02 so I'm practically beta ready (was ready the 18th!).

So Konami, WTFXUP!? Do you have beef on teh Puerto Ricans? Cuz I'll kill ya with teh reggaeton papy!!!shift+1!!11!

poopsack6517d ago (Edited 6517d ago )

I live in Puerto Rico to and I get that error maybe thats the thing, that would suck balls. Racist! Im calling it! Arcangel Pa! Prrra

outlaw7346517d ago

I am going to get this tomorrow to past the time hopefully with that, the beta, and gta IV i think i will be good

Konami Delists Some Metal Gear Games From Digital Stores Without Warning

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker HD have been delisted from digital stores without warning.

cloganart8d ago

I mean, it makes sense. With Vol.2 coming and all that

Commentby8d ago

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.

jjb19818d ago

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."

gigoran87d ago

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!!!!"

computeSci7d ago (Edited 7d ago )

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?

PlayStation 3 Games That Desperately Need a PS5 Remaster

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!!

Rude-ro721d ago

I played killzone 3 in 3d and it really changed the game per being immersive.
In vr, that would be even more awesome.

darthv72721d ago

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.

_SilverHawk_721d ago

resistance 1-3, killzone 1-3, uncharted 1-3, uncharted golden abyss, folklore, socom 4 , motorstorm, twisted metal, MAG, heavenly sword

Cacabunga721d ago

Killzone 2+3
Sly Thieves in Time
Crack in Time
God of War Ascension
Motorstorm
Modnation racer
Infamous 1+2

Profchaos721d ago (Edited 721d ago )

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

seanpitt23721d ago

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!

Iceball2000721d ago

YEAAASSSSS! I miss this franchise and wanna play it so bad again.

Father__Merrin721d ago

The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer

InUrFoxHole721d ago

The resistance series is str8 trash to me. Socom 3 I would welcome. Or killzone MP.

Marcus Fenix721d ago

A Resistance reboot will be awesome

Michiel1989721d ago

That's what Bungie should make, Ill keep saying it until it happens

1Victor721d ago (Edited 721d ago )

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 😱

Michiel1989721d ago

Resistance was the best co-op fps I ever played after L4D2
