Metal Gear Solid HD Collection: new Peace Walker video

[Costello]

If like me you are excited about this HD collection which will let you enjoy remastered versions of MGS 2, MGS 3 and MGS Peace Walker, you will probably be interested in checking out the following video, a 4 minute long preview of what the game will look like on the PS3 and Xbox 360.

Looks really... bad...

 

[Langin]

does not look like a game for me...

 

[RupeeClock]

The video autoplays, and even has a pretty loud advert that pops up.
Kinda irritating to come across on the portal frontpage.

For "HD" I'm kinda disappointed. Looks too much like a PSP game being played with a DualShock 3

 

[Maplemage]

Doesnt look that really good D=

I'm a huge Metal Gear fan. I still have the original Metal Gear and non-canon Snake's Revenge NES carts that I bought when they first came out (actually, my dad bought them for me...I was far too young to have my own money back then). This one's going on my shelf as part of my MG/MGS collection, no questions asked!

sorry about that, didnt realize I'll try to find another source

How does it look bad? It looks awesome!
Definitely better looking than it is on PSP, or have you guys not played it?
Peace Walker is one of my favourites, can't wait to play it

Peace Walker is fucking excellent. And being able to play this with an improved control scheme is going to be great. I'm looking forward to this as I'm not a graphics whore but someone who cares only for gameplay.

I found the youtube link already and updated the main post.
I couldnt watch the whole video due to crappy speed, but now that its on youtube it should work better

 

[Depravo]

I dare say I'll get this at some point. I'm not the biggest fan of stealth games but I really enjoyed MGS 1&2.

 

[Densetsu]

I made some...modifications to the video

Hope you don't mind

Maybe I've misunderstood the "HD" in the title, because I can't see a single thing that is HD in that game, maybe except the main menu.

Looks like Konami is keeping up with their new tradition of quick and cheapy ports (MGS:3D) just to cash on long-time fans.

I'm severely disappointed. I won't buy this.

thats quite okay the trailer but i think it wont be a huge seller by graphics. maybe the game play may sell it but not the graphics at this point.
PS - costello are u from france? or shanghai? or do u live in shanghai but are born in france?

Well the God of War HD Remakes looked really bad too. IMO it shouldnt be to hard to change at least the Textures after so much time

 

[Guild McCommunist]

It doesn't look much different from the PSP version but that's not why I'm buying it.

Online play is a huge seller, plus it'll be so much better to play this with dual analogs than the PSP's analog nub/buttons for ghetto dual analogs. Plus I get MGS2 and MGS3 with it so I can't complain. All with achievements and they're playable on my Xbox 360, so no more needing to hook up the PS2.

This single part of that collection is an HD port of a PSP game. It's not a remake and can't be compared to MGS:3D. which is, you know, a remake. They just said Peace Walker would be in the collection. They didn't say they were rebuilding it from the ground up to be optimized for your $1500 TV. I'm sure the rest of the collection will look fine with some hi res texture touch ups, but it's difficult to just touch it up with a PSP game.

In the long run, you get what you get, and other people will be more than happy to buy this. It's the accessibility of Peace Walker and the online that are going to get people playing this now more than anything.

I don't even know if MGS3D is a remake or a port. It looks pretty much like a port and I feel like if it was remade, it wouldn't have all these framerate issues and stuff that people are complaining about.

But HD touch ups usually never look too great. Ever play Perfect Dark HD? Sure, it looks better, but it still looks like shit. Ironically, I bought it for the same reason I'm gonna buy the HD Collection: online functions (aka multiplayer for Perfect Dark, co-op for Peace Walker).

Plus it's still 5 games, 2 of which are the special editions, for like $50. Can't complain.

agreed, at some point I almost wanted to buy me a PS2 again just to play those games. (back then I played MGS2 and MGS3 and beat them 100%, but I never got around to playing Substance and Subsistence...)
cant wait for this, though I must admit Peace Walker doesnt really interest me much.
