it did happen already lol years ago unless they are going to re remake it

Chinner5467d ago

Sounds like they're going to remake or 're-imagine' the original. They're not going to remake the Twin Snakes.

DarkBlood5467d ago

well to be honest isnt it literally the same thing i mean i remeber watching the movie feature with my cousin for the ps1 version and years later got the remake for the cube

only difference is:
-dialog for physo mantis memory card thing

-controller port switch im not sure if the ps1 had it, i wouldnt know unless i bought the ps1 version on the store

-voices were different im obviously assuming but as far as i remeber there wasnt anything different with the story

but other then that im not sure to call it a remake of the original or a reremake of the twinsnakes version

but techically speaking i think it is just a remake of the first game no matter what variation it is

twin snakes was a remake or special edition of solid. I am actually more interested in a remake of the ORIGINAL metal gear.

Konami has done a couple of rehashes of the contra and gradius games under the "Rebirth" title. Basically they took the elements of the classic games and mixed them together.

I want to see a metal gear rebirth game. Mixing 1 and 2 to make a revisioning of the originals that started it all. It doesnt have to be for the wii like those others were. It can come to psn or ..... but there is a significant need for this.

Most people dont even know the back story which leads to even more reason to have a rebirth.

@newmonday: yeah...that is what the rebirth should be. Like they did with contra and gradius.

NewMonday5467d ago

they need to remake the first 2 games that where on the MSX

kindi_boy5467d ago

I guess they want us to try the new Wii U remote with MGS, my guess it's going to be the best version, the immersion is gonna be through the roof.

DigitalAnalog5467d ago

Twin Snakes was fun, but the jumping off a rocket while firing a stinger is just plain stupidity. Also, the amount of backflips/action-esque hollywoodized mentality is what destroyed this game. Why do you think Snake Eater features REALISTIC CQC combat? Because that sh*t ain't canon. Yes, it is better to be remade with the proper design in mind AND it should stick to the original music.

-End statement

'It was further revealed that MGS was not included in the HD collection because it had ‘little meaning’ due to being technologically dated.'

Surely just remastering Twin Snakes was possible? Or does Nintendo have something to why they didn't?

Chinner5467d ago

Probably, Twin Snakes was developed by Konami and Silicon Knights and released exclusively on the Nintendo Gamecube, so I suspect Nintendo own the rights.

DarkBlood5467d ago

thats confusing do u mean own the rights to the engine because that cant be possible since its used from the second game i think

surely they can just take out whatever made it exclusive in the first place but then again isnt a remake suppose to make changes that make it impossible to have control over?

a_bro5467d ago

1. MGS 1 had Playstation Refrences.

2.MGS:TS had Nintendo Refrences.

Lylat_645467d ago

Yup shooting Mario and hearing the 1up sound was awesome!

Chinner5467d ago (Edited 5467d ago )

I'll address both your points in one post Darkblood because I only have one post left!

The Twin Snakes had quite alot of changes and 'enhancements'. It incorporated all the game features that MGS2 had, so this includes: First person shooting, new guard A.I, new alert systems and the ability to sneak. This really changed how the game played compared to the original.

You're right, voice acting was completely redone. Additionally, the cutscenes were totally redone with new (and ott) directing along with new music and some script changes.

Now as for your other question, I'm not sure on the specifics. I assume Nintendo owns the rights to the title and contents of Twin Snakes. The engine wasn't the same one used in MGS2, but (I think) was something adapted and changed to fit the Gamecube.

Chances are however that if they do remake MGS, they won't use TTS but instead use the MGS4/Fox engine and use new assets as well as gameplay features.

Hope this helps!

KillerPwned5467d ago (Edited 5467d ago )

It may have been done on the GC but i have no doubt plenty of people would still buy another remake myself included. I bought the GC remake i would love to see updated graphics to this gen.

VampiricDragon5467d ago

AGAIN??????

Come on guys make a new game or something

Video Games That Will Never Release Again

Some games you just know are going to stand the test of time, being released and re-released multiple times over the years, or will simply have a legacy that’s built to endure. Meanwhile, there are other games that, for whatever reason, are simply never coming back.

Aye..this is why Emulation is important.

The Punisher was soo damn good. Nailed Garth Ennis take on the character very well. For me still one of the best comic book adaptions ever made.

neutralgamer1992511d ago

Punisher and Simpsons both should get remakes. That's easy money for whoever does it

Demetrius511d ago

I might have to order punisher for my ps2 soon, I watched gameplay it looks good

Terry_B511d ago

If you like the character, even read some of the comics you might like the game a lot. It was an excellent third person shooter with many nice ideas that fit Frank and even had a nice story full with characters from the Garth Ennis run

victorMaje511d ago (Edited 511d ago )

Where is NOLF!
That they couldn’t find a way to work out the legal stuff to bring it back is one of the greatest tragedies in gaming history.

JunonZanon511d ago

A Hit and Run remake or even remaster would be dope.

-Foxtrot511d ago

Especially if they create one giant expanded map over hubs.

TricksterArrow511d ago

Def Jam. Great and fun game they will never be re-released. There is just no way to secure all the copyrights for the tracks, voices and likenesses used in this game.

Knushwood Butt511d ago

You can stream Heavenly Sword via PS Plus Premium.

hiawa23510d ago

Streaming PS3 games to PS5 is not good which is why my PS3 is still connected. I hope you know that, but thanks for chiming in.

Knushwood Butt501d ago

Well, I played through the campaign of Resistance 3 via streaming and it was pretty good.

hiawa23510d ago

And before someone states the obvious of streaming PS3 games to PS5. Um, no, streaming PS3 games is pretty bad.

Hideo Kojima admits Metal Gear Solid motion capture was “trial and error”

Hideo writes: "We experimented with magnetic motion capture in "Metal Gear Solid: Integral", and in MGS2, we adopted optical motion capture for the first time. Was the shooting done about 25 years ago? Well, back then, everything was trial and error, but every day felt fresh and exciting."
