Burny Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 How come it is coming out on the 360 as well? I thought MGS was Sony's baby. Now i don't know which console to buy it on... Together with their the new engine that's designed for PS360/PC/NGP it's one of the final nails in the coffin for 3rd party exclusivity. Can only be a good thing in the future.

Sheikah Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 They obviously benefit from exclusivity in some way, there's some 3rd party titles that would clearly make a killing if they went multiformat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flameboy Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Boxarts: I thought it was just one collection with all 3 titles on? Seperate boxart says a different story. But this is maybe the actual box art here; Glad this is coming. I played Portable Ops and loved it but by the time Peace Walker came I was less forgiving to controls I think. Also like this: Another feature both collections support is Kojima's new "lifestyle" called "Transfarring." That is not a typo -- Transfarring. Using this system, PlayStation players can have one save that works with PS3 and PSP copies of certain games. Konami announced Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker as the first (and so far only) Transfarring capable title. Start your Peace Walker game on the PS3, copy the save to the PSP, play on the go, and then copy it back to the PS3 to pick up where you left off.

LegoMan1031 Posted June 3, 2011 Author Share Posted June 3, 2011 If it's Sony's baby, Konami has some explaining to do about The Twin Snakes. Peach Walker sounds delicious, though. Haha, good point! Shows i must have been tired when writing that because i recognised silicon knights i just forgot about it being on gamecube... (lol) Together with their the new engine that's designed for PS360/PC/NGP it's one of the final nails in the coffin for 3rd party exclusivity. Can only be a good thing in the future. Ah right, yeah i wouldn't say it is a big thing either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent Gibbs Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 i can finally buy Peace Walker!, i've not used my psp for so long, so i never bought it what if they do this for the café with exclusive Twin Snakes? after all it was a Nintendo exclusive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lillster Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Awesome. My only reason to want a 3DS is gone. MGS3 is amazing. Yes, but after this years E3, it will be cool to like Nintendo products again. I agree to an extent though, Konami just killed the 3DS version.

I only had a quick blast yesterday so I havent got much to say yet. When you boot up the game all 3 games are side by side in order of the timeline. So it starts with MGS3 then Peace Walker and finally MGS2. Visually the game looks great, very clean. They've done a great job but it's also a testament to how well the game looked back in the day. I never got to play the Subsistance version of MGS3, so having control of the camera was a nice surprise and has been a joy. I will put alot more time into it today.

Hero-of-Time Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 I played some more of this today, just defeated The Fury, which is easily the weakest boss fight in the game. The game is still amazing though, with The End fight hands down one of the greatest boss fights from any game. When I was fighting The Fear he managed to get a few hits on me with his crossbow. One of them landed straight in the middle in Snake's head. For the rest of the game it stayed there, just standing up vertically and wobbling a little whenever I ran. I will say I need to get out of the habit of trying to crouch and run at the same time. I just keep sliding across the floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero-of-Time Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Platinum Get! Man, I forgot how good the game was, especially the ending sequence. It's such a great story with a very emotional ending. I loaded my game up today and that arrow was still stuck in Snakes head. I thought it may have disappeared once I knocked the game off. I'm looking forward to playing Peace Walker next as I never got around to playing it on the PSP. I will probably wait til i've played though Zelda SS though, gives me a little break from all the stealth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolan Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 The best part about The End is that you can essentially skip the fight if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayseven Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 @Ramar how did you do? I got the set about a fortnight ago, and I'm still focusing solely on MGS2. I'm currently on my 5th playthrough (started on normal, had to do normal again for the tags >_<). I'm presently swearing at the TV due to the sniper/emma/oil bridge bit. I kinda have a love/hate thing with how the game lets you unlock the wigs/bandanas/stealth as the game gets harder. It makes the majority of teh game easier, but then suddenly at the boss sections the game is BACK TO RIDICULOUSAAAAH... I bought this 'collection' aware that MGS2 was more of a movie than a game, thus I went into it with a lot of patience. I also played through Twin Snakes about 20 times getting the tags on all difficulties, and doing the same with this game has brought back a lot of fun memories. I love starting the game an absolute noob (diving onto the floor instead of running away, etc) and then progressing to the stage where I know the guard movement patterns and know how many ups/downs I have to press to get to the item/weapon I want. 80g is waiting for me for completing the game on hard and extreme (for the tags)... and man, I'm not looking forward to the hard slug that extreme'll present. Then it's the VR stuff, boss survival, snake missions and whatever else I've forgotten, before I get onto MGS3 and start again! the achievements all seem doable, just requiring a lot of time. If I can succeed, then this'll be my proudest 1k. Also, it's nice that the only metal gear games I've played before are Twin Snakes and... the game boy colour Metal Gear Solid! So this collection should pretty much complete things for me (I hear metal gear 1 and 2 are on it somewhere...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
