Metal Gear Solid HD Collection Hits PS3 and 360 In November

Good news everyone! Konami is releasing the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection – a collection which contains Metal Gear Solid 2, 3 and Peace Walker to both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

News from Konami’s pre-E3 conference states that all three games will be playable in 1080p. In addition PS3 owners will be able to partake in save game exchanges between the existing PSP version and the console version. 360 owners won’t be able to use this feature for obvious reasons.

Despite the fact that Peace Walker was designed specifically for the PSP – the controls will be adapted for the more sophisticated dual stick controls of both the PS3 and 360 controllers.

MGS3 was amazing, I never got to play MGS2 and Peacewalker was always tempting me on the PSP so this a definite pick up!

  I was hoping for an HD Twin Snakes though. I understand why it’s not there, but still.

  I started playing Peacewalker just a few days ago. It is one of the most amazing titles I’ve ever played. Ever. I’m glad this is getting a port

Portable Ops? Not the the strongest in the series, but still excellent. Would’ve benefited from a console release.

Awesome! Now nobody has an excuse to not play it. Unless you’re a PC only guy. I digress. Was there any word on splitscreen/online play for Peacewalker?

This news came just before I put a bid in on a PS2 console, just so I could play these games.

Thanks for the timely reveal; I might bide my time… 🙂

Since NGP is capable of graphics close to PS3/Xbox360 (on a smaller screen). Will the pack available on NGP too?

I would love to play Zone of Enders 2 on the go

Nice! This and the Silent Hill collections are instant buys for me. MGS2 is still top 10 for me. I wonder if they will be the substance versions or the originals..

Excellent news, these are all the MGS games that I haven’t played in one bundle.

MGS3 is the one coming out for the 3DS though, right? Probably won’t be getting it anymore if that’s the case. 😛

Why not include an HD remake of MGS? It’s by far the best game in the series.

Although, It’ll be nice to eat those packs of dried MGS3 ramen in HD – the “food of the future”.

  Would haver grabbed it if it had part one as well.
  
  But it seems like they just grabbed random titles?
  
  Think I might look for the excellent PS2 collection released a few years back instead.

    MGS1 is already available on the PS3 and PSP, with cross-platform saves. I think they’re just trying to roll up the games so that they’re all available on modern platforms.

I’ve never played any MGS, and my friend has been bugging me to do it too… Would’ve been definitely picking this up if it had number 1 in it as well, but now… Not so sure really…

  I’m guessing the point is to make them all PS3 compatible (Metal Gear Solid 1, a PS1 game, is already compatible with a PS3 console)

MGS1 is on the PSN as a PSONE classic isn’t it?

Probably why its not getting upscaled. Probably too much work involved to upscale and HD remake a PS1 game..

This will be the greatest thing ever if they actually do it! My favourite games ever on the 360 *Cries*.
I remember when I decided to get a 360 over the PS3 and was a little gutted that I wouldn’t play MGS again. But hey hey! The better console has won once again ^_^
Thankyou Konami

I can finally give MGS2 back to my cousin after I borrowed it for like 7 years. And my MGS3 has stopped working on my PS2 so this is bloody awesome news!

Thanks to the opening line I heard Prof. Hubert Farnsworth’s voice in my head telling me about the new Metal Gear Solid HD collection. It was excellent.

Such a shame that there’s no PC version. You’d expect Kojima to rally support from PC gamers since Rising is supposedly is going towards all the major platforms aside from Wii. Besides, shouldn’t a 360 version open the way up for PC? Here’s to hoping that it wasn’t announced because it will be delayed for several months like most PC versions of multiplatforms games are.

Great for people like me who never got into the first one (Was N64 kid) and just.. never bothered getting into the subsequent games because I figured I was too behind in the lore anyway. Time to catch up.
