"It has been a tough month for the world as several celebrities have passed away all at once. Apparently Solid Snake, hero of the Metal Gear series of videogames, has also passed.
We came across this memorial for the raspy-voiced hero at Anime Expo this past weekend. Mourners gathered around a crushed box -- presumably one he died in -- to pay their respects for the original stealth action game star. Located in a hallway of the Los Angeles Convention Center, sheets of paper were provided at the site should fans want to leave a message for Snake."
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?
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is a remake of the original 2004 PlayStation 2 game from Konami and is now available on Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5 and PC.
A quote from Hideo Kojima brings up the notion of the wavering quality of modern day gaming, and a deconstruction of what constitutes a good game and artistic value follow suit.
