During a lecture held at the Cité des Sciences et de l'Industrie in Paris, attended by DualShockers, former Konami Technology Director Julien Merceron talked about the development of <em>Metal Gear Solid V</em>, mentioning that the idea of putting the game on old-generation consoles came from the management.

Over ten years after its release, does Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain still impress? Jump Dash Roll returns to Snake's world for this Brutal Backlog.
I don’t think I’ve ever quite experienced an unfinished game that was slapped together with duct tape and construction paper to be sold as a finished product, basically making you replay the same missions and include a story that clearly was missing so much of the plot, like I did with this game.
I’m actually shocked that it doesn’t get calls out for this more.

Julien Merceron previously worked at Konami, Bandai Namco, Square Enix, Ubisoft and IO Interactive, and is now chief technology officer at Delphi Interactive, the California-based studio currently working on a FIFA-branded game for the upcoming 2026 World Cup.
CG writes: In this video, we take Microsoft's Copilot for a spin and talk about gaming and AI influences, and the implications of that. We talked about a possible Metal Gear Solid V remaster, Deus Ex remaster, Hitman Blood-Money mission, and more. Imagine trying to talk gaming with non-gaming friends in real-life and after 5 seconds, they switch off and possibly yawn. Well, CoPilot isn't like that, instead it's like talking to a like-minded gaming fan who is totally on your level. The public version of CoPilot released in Feb 2023 and already it's become almost indistinguishable from a real person.
This game was initially developed for the PS3 and 360 so I don't see how there could be that many issues
Still old gen looks impressive..
Well, it made good business sense to put on last gen consoles, and the X1 PS4 versions turned out well, so, win, win, looks like all versions were the best hardware would allow..
I bought the ps3 version. It runs great! Good job gentlemen!
