Metal Gear Solid HD Collection DATE ANNOUNCED - Games

[QUOTE=certified;33266742]One thing I will always criticize about MGS3's environment: It looks like they took Vietnam, dotted a few hammers and sickles every few KM, and called it the Soviet Union. [editline]14th November 2011[/editline] Oh and a little interesting tidbit about the Metal Gear series for the MGS kiddies who only played since MGS: Metal Gear 2 and Metal Gear Solid 3 take place in the exact same place. If you take the time you will realize that Metal Gear 2's world is basically the world of MGS3 in 2d and reversed. Other than that the areas are slightly smaller (And some bigger), also some of the geography is slightly changed, although that can be attributed to simple forgetfulness or development decisions. For example, Groznyj Grad is 4 stories high, and the desert mountain area after the ladder boss battle has a 30 story high sky scraper (smart idea eh? Oxygen suffocation at the lowest point of the summit wasn't good enough eh?) The swamp is there as it is in MGS3, and the cliff you start at in the beginning is next to another cliff and has a bridge going to it. Every geological feature you see in MGS3 is in it's original 2d form in Metal Gear 2.[/QUOTE] Woah, so I guess the developers intended that? I never noticed, that's so awesome.

So Big Boss built Zanzibar Land to be exactly like his first mission? Why? [editline]13th November 2011[/editline] It seems more like the reusing of ideas like the heat sensitive key in both MG2 and MGS

[QUOTE=thisispain;33172714]you won't miss it considering MGS3 is probably one of the greatest games ever released on the PS2[/QUOTE] more like one of the greatest games ever released

Sorry for my dumbness does this collection include MGS2?

yes, it's MGS2 (not sure which version), MGS3 Subsistence, and Peace Walker

I remember I played one version of MGS2, it takes place on a boat or someshit? You kill a girl with a short haircut or something?

[QUOTE=Zoran;33268652]I remember I played one version of MGS2, it takes place on a boat or someshit? You kill a girl with a short haircut or something?[/QUOTE] Thats the prologue. Afterwards it takes place on The Big Shell where you play as Raiden.

My HD Collection comes in tomorrow (fucking holiday on Friday so I had to wait for the weekend, oh well gave me time to play through Skyrim)

[QUOTE=Donut Hill;33171854][video=youtube_share;jFWnMXl--0c]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFWnMXl--0c[/video] Heres the video in the thread. I'm looking forward to playing MGS again.[/QUOTE] Why does the music sound like a ripoff of other orchestral scores? It starts off sounding like DEHR, then Mind Heist, then the Requiem for a Dream song

[QUOTE=Rusty100;33269264]Why does the music sound like a ripoff of other orchestral scores? It starts off sounding like DEHR, then Mind Heist, then the Requiem for a Dream song[/QUOTE] Because some Russian tossers won the claim against Metal Gear solid's theme. This one: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqqq8uqSDnk[/media] And I quote: [quote]Norihiko Hibino stated that the company had difficulties with "Russian composers who said we stole their music", referring to an occasion when a group of Russian games journalists presented Hideo Kojima with a composition by Georgy Sviridov and claimed this had been plagiarised to create the theme. Hibino states that "they didn't actually", however the company was "too sensitive about the situation" and elected to drop the theme.[/quote]

mgs2 has a better theme song anyway

I wonder if they changed it for the MGS2 remake? I like the MGS3/MGS4 one but I totally prefer the one from MGS1/2

[QUOTE=thisispain;33172714]you won't miss it considering MGS3 is probably one of the greatest games ever released on the PS2[/QUOTE] I can't be the only one who liked MGS2 even better than MGS3. The graphics were amazing considering it's on PS2, and the details!

[QUOTE=Bat-shit;33270278]I can't be the only one who liked MGS2 even better than MGS3. The graphics were amazing considering it's on PS2, and the details![/QUOTE]And released in 2001 too! Usually you don't see such use of console hardware until the end of the gen.

[QUOTE=Edthefirst;33208810]Only thing besides MGS 1 that isn't included unfortunately since MGO for MGS4 is rather shit.[/QUOTE] Portable ops isn't included either, is it? [QUOTE=Bomimo;33270295]And released in 2001 too! Usually you don't see such use of console hardware until the end of the gen.[/QUOTE] Yeah, those graphics, were amazing when considering they are ten years old.

[QUOTE=NinjaWilko;33268668]Thats the prologue. Afterwards it takes place on The Big Shell where you play as Raiden.[/QUOTE] I got stuck on the prologue after killing the girl. I should get this game. I still have MGS2 for the original Xbox. I should try and beat it.

[b]FUCK YOU GAMESTOP YOU GODDAMN SONS OF BITCHES[/b] they fucking sent me Modern Warfare 3 Hardened Edition rather than the MGS:HD Collectors Edition like it says on the fucking receipt. I waited an entire week for it and now I have to wait another just to get the game I bought in the first place. Cunts. The only reason I bought it through Gamestop online was it sold out on Amazon(PS3 copy) and I had no other option.

Person picks up *game not Cowadoody* during a cowadooty release, rather than checking it they just smack CoD in your hands and tell you to pay up. It seems they now don't check their mail either and they just say "send MW3 to all people who ordered something through mail order"

They better let me keep it(it's a shitty game anyways) because I've had the game on pre-order and I have waited a fucking week for it. Calling customer support and I've been waiting 20 minutes now :\

send me mw 3 bud

I want the night vision goggles but this one wasn't even the one that came with it, fuck [editline]14th November 2011[/editline] [b]GODDAMN IT I CAN'T EVEN CALL CORPORATE BECAUSE A BUNCH OF KIDS ARE CALLING ABOUT THEIR MODERN WARFARE 3 CODES NOT WORKING[/b] I wait an hour on their "sorry we can't help you because we're swamped" and then immediately as it hits 1 hour, it disconnects me. Cunts.

i might even pay for it depending on the cost

[QUOTE=NomadicNinja;33277672]i might even pay for it depending on the cost[/QUOTE] I'll try calling tomorrow, they better let me keep it, if they do, I'll sell it for like 80 bucks and shipping, 20 cheaper than the $99 price they're selling it for.

[QUOTE=Alex_DeLarge;33277163]I've had the game on pre-order and I have waited a fucking week for it.[/QUOTE] Could be worse bro :( But still fuck gamestop

what about for just the game itself m8

i bought MGS At Gamestop too they gave me a opened copy and sold it to me new. gave it back to them, and bought the Limited edition on amazon. i got it on friday and it was awesome. been mainly playing peace walker

wow my gamestop just gave it to me there were only 2 copies left but they just handed it to me and was like "nice timing bud" where the hell do you all live

My PS3 drive is broken. Why!!! D:

Is it just me, or do the cutscenes in Peacewalker look bad because they just upscaled the resolution to HD?

[QUOTE=Conro101;33278733]wow my gamestop just gave it to me there were only 2 copies left but they just handed it to me and was like "nice timing bud" where the hell do you all live[/QUOTE] The limited edition?
