Nope, he's serious Sad Enjoy the needless three month wait. And companies wonder why there are so many pirates? Rolling Eyes Even IF I had any intention of playing this, it sure as fuck won't be legitimately now. When the game comes out in PAL territories, I'll pirate the fucking thing on general principle -- and I don't even want it.

I can't do that with such a classics. Not to mention, the whole pack came at much lower price than one new game.

The PS3? Just import it then. PS3 games are region free mate, it's only the 360 that is region locked. If you're buying for the PS3, just import it -- you'll save money doing that too.

Region locks for ANYTHING these days are just retarded, even more so when it's a digital purchase, but luckily the PS3 doesn't have them.

region locks are one of most bullshitty bullshit possible.

basicly - If You are an european and buy games in europe - then You move to states or asia and You have to buy them again!!!

Get the hack done mate. It's totally worth it. Everything works just like a JTAG, except for the boot times, which isn't an issue at all. Wink

this collection is awesome!

playing through snake eater again was a blast... it's such a great game and looks great with the higher resolution.

now I'm playing peace walker which I only gave a short try on the PSP but gave up on because of the controls... now with a second analogue stick it's really great fun!

didn't try MGS2 HD yet as I want to go through the metal gear solid series in chronological order but I can already highly recommend this hd collection Smile

now if only there was a graphically improved metal gear solid 1. something like what was done with Halo for the anniversary edition... I'm gonna have to play it after peace walker but I'm sure it'll look terrible. lol
oh well.. can't have everything.

did anyone else buy this game yet? peace walker coop should be fun!

I thought of that.. but when I suggested that they should add twin snakes (which I never played) to the collection somewhere, someone replied that it wasn't just a graphically enhanced version of MGS but a bad remake with new cutscenes that aren't as awesome as the originals and shit.

so I backed off a bit from twin snakes.... you say it's worth playing?

they are full of shit, you can compare those people to the starwars "fans" who get their panties in a bunch about redone CGI in a single scene.

Twin snakes looks so much better, has some MGS2 features added, redone voice acting.

it is superior in every way, and if i didnt read about redone cutscenes i wouldnt have noticed after all those years. Dont buy in those "purists" their bullshit.

You ll enjoy it

original on PC with higher resolution
twin snakes on GC

I wouldnt be able to deal with the old graphics anymore.

Thanks man, I'll give it a shot when I'm done with Peace Walker!



-edit-
I grabbed twin snakes and tried it with dolphin but it seems the game has some issues.
it's crashing for me at the very beginning and the dolphin wiki also mentions several issues like sound and graphics glitches and cutscene crashes.
http://wiki.dolphin-emulator.com/index.php?title=Metal_Gear_Solid:_The_Twin_Snakes

So now I have the option of either running twin snakes on my wii, or playing the PC version of the original.
I'll grab the pc version of MGS and see if it even works on windows 7.

Yeah I think that's what I'll go for.
Just tried the PC version but the max resolution is 1024x768 and it's just kind of an awkward port.

twin snakes on wii or gc seems to be the best option.

Well, Peace Walker is a PSP game. It's just in higher resolution. PS2 games are better than PSP graphics wise so if you run them both at the same res, PS2 games are gonna look better.

Peace walker looks much better than a PS1 game, and maybe like an average PS2 game, but it's not as good as MGS2 and MGS3. The biggest difference is that peace walker lacks any kind of facial animation, while MGS2 has decent facial animation and MGS3 has excellent facial animation.

It's not a big issue though because pretty much all the cutscenes are graphic novel style and not ingame like those of other MGS titles. You only occasionally see the face of Big Boss and all soldiers wear masks anyway.
