A detailed look at the Japanese Metal Gear Solid Premium Package for Metal Gear Solid on the original PlayStation.
A look at Hideo Kojima's Snatcher.
Oh you mean that game where Hideo borrowed all his ideas from Blade Runner? Not sure how MGS fans owe it to themselves to go point and click in a completely different genre, but if you wanna help point out, how much this tool-set has used and borrowed over the years, this is a good start.
Ok, I’m not sure where all that’s coming from, but he literally was inspired by Balde Runner and Terminator for this game and made something that is different enough to call unique and is a pretty great game if you’re into those properties and like point and click kind of games.
Most things are influenced by something, nowadays.
Wow. Kojima must have really wronged you in the past. That or your boyfriend dumped you. Either way, you gotta let go of that hate and try to be more positive. People are worried about you.
HEY!!! While I agree with you that Kojima is...uhm...kinda hackish and full of himself, I can't let you in good conscience talk like that about Snatcher. Goddamn masterpiece that game is. His best game ever. Followed, of course, by Policenauts.
Now stop being such a mid and go back to whatever it is that you do. Probably scream "10 out of 10! Best game ever!! Game of the Year!!!" about some game it hasn't even been release yet.
...
Besides, Kojima started plagiarizing with the original Metal Gear, so...Pfft! Shows how little you know.
Nothing's original these days, man. Everything draws from something before it and everyone's a fan of someone else, just how it goes, dude.
Now, I'm all about having modern games on modern hardware. I don't want a beast of a machine to play 2nd generation graphics games on, I want a new experience with current visuals, but to pull out the old console and hook it up to the heaviest TV in existence, well, then get to experience classic pieces of art. Museums are great! Taking people back to the time of Mario and showing life after the gaming crash is fun for a lot of people, but the modern games are important to show technology is still moving forward. Backward compatiblity is a joke (and I don't mean that by saying they could do better), new gaming hardware is for new games and experiences, that's why we have our old gaming consoles. If you wanna play your old games, don't throw out your consoles. You buy new hardware for new experiences. This is just showing people the past, but you can dwell too much on the past. Live in the present and welcome the possibilities of the future
And Konami owes it to fans, their own profit margins, to re-release if not wholly remake the game.
I think you mean Konami owes it to fans to license or sell the IP to a team that knows what they're doing.
As we sneak closer to July, fans of the Metal Gear franchise wait with bated breath to see how Konami will celebrate the 35th anniversary of the landmark series, but what should the pachinko enthusiasts do?
i would love a twin snakes remaster with mgs4 at 4k60, loved twin snakes
The very-very least would be to let these titles be included in advanced PS Plus tiers
I assure you that is not the least they could do, but it is what these games deserve at the very least.
1st and 4th are in some way connected to Sony. Same as twin snakes with Nintendo
In a perfect world they would sell the rights to silent hills, mgs, contra and Castlevania to Sony and Konami can focus on their other business. Sony can reboot the series and remake the first game under Bluepoint and have kojima help. Sony is the only publisher they will provide resources for these games and hand them off to right developers
Mgs series reboot bluepoint
Castlevania David jaffe and Cory
Contra to housemarque
Silent hills to kojima
MGS1 was released on PC, so I don't see how there's any connection to Sony. In regards to MGS4 it's been reported today that Sony didn't have any exclusive deal. A KojiPro dev confirmed Kojima himself chose not to port the game. It was supposedly due to DVD limitations vs Blu Ray. Microsoft charged a hefty fee for any game that required more than 1 DVD, and that charge was per extra disc.
If that's true why has that game been ported because Xbox one has Blu-ray disks? I doubt a greedy company like Konami would pass on the opportunity
And being on PC isn't the same as being on xbox. Just look at FF7 remake. Man I just want someone to do justice to these IP's. The other day I was thinking whoever buys the IP should start from scratch and make remakes while adding content and other missing stuff. Get a game where we get to play as the boss being one of the examples
MGS1 remake is in development as far as I can tell. There is too much smoke around this rumor
Just like silent hills rumors are now turning out to be confirmed around the same time we got rumors saying Sony has signed a deal with Konami to do games
MGS4 being a PS3 exclusive was solely Kojima’s decision and not Sony. A MGS4 port or remaster is entirely up to Konami
Metal Gear Solid bosses are often weird, wacky, or just downright insane. But which are the best ones? Find out here.
This is a hard list to make… so many good bosses in the series.
I really enjoyed Psycho Mantis as a kid, I was blown away by the fact he could make my controller rumble and read my save games! And the tactics to beat him were crazy.
I’d put him in #1 with The End in 2nd.
Going through this list desperatly makes me want a remake of 1 and then a 4k remaster with other better effect touch for mgs 2-4.
Cmon konami give us the ultimate mgs collection charge what you want ill pay it.
Just give me upgraded versions of the games that i can play all on one console.
You want ANOTHER remake of 1? Twin Snakes not enough? There should be a limit on remakes imo. Reboots are fine tho.
"to soon" = "I didn't play at launch" = irrelevant
Nope not enough that remake came to soon as it was the gen after.
We are now 3 gens later so yea remake it again or give us a 4k version with other graphical updates aswell.
Twin Snakes butchered MGS1, but even if it didn't, that game is still 20 years old and outdated. The original trilogy could all do with a ground up remake. Fortunately for people like you though, you'll not be forced at gunpoint to buy it if you don't want it.
The Olga fight is a bit harsh, she pulled off some neat tricks like using the tarp to hide herself (while showing off the cloth physics) and blinding you with lights you had to shoot out (a new mechanic).
The Fear is really harsh. Yes with the thermal goggles he's easily defeated but it's easy enough to miss the thermal goggles before fighting him. The fact that you can take advantage of how he frequently gets hungry during the fight adds to the options too.
How is Fortune ranked higher than both the above?
Liquid Ocelot at 29? C'mon that fight was epic, you get a whole new control scheme just for that fight and it's got tons of well thought out fan service.
Revolver Ocelot MGS1 fight at 9? You just ran around in a circle.
Though I do agree with your #1. The Boss fight was peak MGS, right down to pressing square to shoot the final bullet.
I think most people would say The End or Mantis, partly for the whole meta experience. Definitely great battles and Mantis messed with EVERYONE. That was the moment that people realized Kojima is a legendary troll in the making.
For me, though, The Boss is #1, no question. That battle was arguably the most significant in the series and was just legendary. Dare I say, my favorite boss battle, period.
nice package overall.. especially for a game that released that long ago.
Hopefully they announce a remastered collection for current gen ;)
... Still waiting on my Metal Gear Solid 4: Subsistance!
I have this in my collection :-)
From that photo tho it looks like the stockholders premium package
I still have the EU CE that's in a silver box :D
