port sucks mad gorrila dick!!! but MGS is Back! I'm so happy to see this Franchise which was almost erased from Existence come back to Life! Can't Wait for Volume 2 and Delta: Snake Eater
very lazy. i can get the idea of people getting hyped about the master books, OSTs, manuals and many things that preserve the original feel of the game when you get it, but if you want that just get the original games for the ps3 or the legacy edition for the ps3, it sure as hell isn't worth 60$ when you can fucking see the game loading in the original hd collection screen which is so fucking shameful i don't know how konami released it, the games run as you'd expect. do yourself a favor and play it on an emulator. this is pure shit especially after removing kojima from the credit.
doesn't support wide screen and some how looks worst than the hd collection to me.

yani, aşırı iyi bir oyunun çok iğrenç bir portu, adamlar direkt olarak ps1 emuletorunden alıp ısıtıp 1-2 tane icon değiştirip üstüne başa bi launcher ekleyip steam e eklemişler, mgs 3 ü 5 saat oynadım şuanlık, mgs 1 ise gram oynanılabilir değil 10 dk oynayıp alt f4 çektim çünkü oyunda "exit" tuşu yok çünkü oyun birebir ps1 versiyonu farkı yok, aralarında bir tek mgs3 oynanabilir, bunu almaktansa gidip emuletor ile oynayın en azından orda ayar yapabiliyorsunuz.
...
All the games being stuck at 30 fps on top of a shit ton of bugs for no reason. Also, the Switch version is a fucking scam because the MGS games just aren’t even included in the cartridge at all. Never change Konami, never change.

Haven’t actually played this or seen how shit the port is, but Mori Calliope’s song compared to themes as iconic as “Snake Eater” and MGS2’s main theme is the funniest fucking thing ever. Thank you Konami.
yeah the PC ports suck but they got Mori Calliope to do a song for this that's freaking AWESOME 🔥🔥🔥
The original Metal Gear Solid games have been stuck on seventh generation hardware for what has felt like enterity, and I was delighted when this collection was announced. And while this collection isn’t entirely bad, it has issues.
For Metal Gear Solid 1, the game is a bit blurry and hard to see. Metal Gear Solid 2 is supposed to be 1080p, but is obviously at 720p. It also has compressed audio, which sounds awful compared to the other ports. The best game in the collection by far is Metal Gear Solid 3, having no issues on my end. The game is 1080p at 60fps. The only issue was that in the cave, my game freezed for half a second. However, it still suffers from compressed audio.
If you’re on PC, I cannot recommend this collection. Though, if you have no other options, than this collection will do just fine.
Edit: I don’t know if Konami dropped a secret patch or what, but now MGS2 is actually at 1080p. Although, like MSG3, the audio is compressed and the texture quality isn’t upscaled from the PS3/X360 versions. If you’re on PC, I would say you’re still better off emulating them and using mods, but for console users, this is a good option.

Overall: Poor quality ports with lots of fixes, they do run and are easily obtainable so...
MGS3: This is my favorite game of all time so I took this rerelease pretty seriously. Having to edit hex or use a mod to change your resolution from 720p is asinine and I cannot believe this launched without ANY graphics options whatsoever. The actual game runs fine, locked 60fps and played just as well with a few bug fixes which I appreciate.
Played on E-Extreme Foxhound rank.

People don't have to start with V or Revengeance now at least
i saw all this coming since we got the very first details about this... and OH GOD!
MGS1 has a REALLY bad input lag (on my experience, i never saw anyone talking about this so maybe it's just me :I) and has no analog support, something that the original game had with the dualshock controller, good job konami.
MGS3 is locked at 30 fps only on switch, we're all know the switch isn't as powerful as a modern PC or console, and i don't mind that too much (mainly because usually unlocking the framerate to old games breaks them, look at GTA San Andreas) my issue here is that meanwhile the HD collection for PS3/X360 runs at 60 fps with just a few issues on ps3, WHAT! (i don't know if MGS2 is locked too but that would be worse remembering that it runs at 60 fps on the original PS2).
There's no video options, i saw a lot of people saying that MGS1 looks blurry as hell and of course you can like that or not (i don't) but why not letting you choose having them or not! let players choose between watching every polygon of snake's butt, make you believe that you need glasses, or even CRT filters, CAPCOM DOES IT, IT'S NOT THAT HARD.
Can someone please explain me why the pc version requirements are actually higher than MGSV, a 2015 game, that thing it's just bad optimization, there's no excuse (and speaking about that, am i the only one who gets worse loading screens than on emulators?)
Maybe there's more to tell but probably my mind forgot about that to keep me mentally sane, the thing that most hurts me is that at this point we should forget about the vol. 2, which means MGS4 will be still trapped on PS3

Games barely run on my pc. You could argue that's a me problem but I would argue that I should be able to run these 20+ year old games, especially when I can run Revengeance on the lowest graphics settings no problem
The new extra stuff they added is neat and I appreciate having all the MGS1 related stuff in one place but the lack of care put into the ports themselves is abysmal

MGS3 crashes on Steam Deck 😩
Os jogos continuam maravilhosos, isso não há duvida, mas o tratamento que a Konami deu é... complicado, principalmente para a versão de PC
Honestamente só vale apena se você não tem nenhuma outra forma de jogar os jogos, porque de verdade, nunca na minha vida eu achei que eu veria uma coleção receber Patch Notes

sizin ben ananızı sikeyim
half assed port more or less, just like the OG port of mgs2 there's no QOL enhancements for PC users and it's just a straight rip of the HD collection games. the best remaster wouldve been just getting the OG source code and compiling it again instead of using Unity and doing some internal reverse engineering for some reason. atleast MGS1 and MG 1 and 2 had some effort done into it
Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1 has some issues, but it is far from unplayable. In fact, there are even some things here you can't find anywhere else (or at least easily). The biggest problem is the emulation issues, which I understand. These were not supposed to be remasters, though. These games were always ports. Could've been cleaned up, sure, but they're not bad.
This collection definitely needed a lot more love from Konami. The presentation is great, but I don't like that there isn't a unified collection. Instead, we have individual launchers (so that people can buy games individually). I am glad to see these games on modern platforms and PC, but the end result will vary from person-to-person.
MGS1 has some load issues with regard to cutscenes. These scenes will take longer to load than on PS3. It's not great. The game also looks very fuzzy, and it would have been nice to see a sharpness filter. This seems to be a very straight port with no work to give the game some filters. Yeah, I was straight up expecting a PS1 game on here, but this doesn't even look like that at times. The positive side is that MGS1 does include the Integral version of the game, as well as Special Missions and VR missions. However, Integral and Special Missions require another download for the language packs, which just should have been included. The MGS1 version also comes with Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2 (though they're obviously ripped from the PS3/360 HD Collection), so if you're considering getting just this one game, keep that in mind.
MGS 2 and 3 are the BluePoint conversions from the HD Collection on the 360/PS3. They are currently having issues running at 1080p, which was the promised resolution. They still run at 720p. Not much is changed with these games, and no other versions of the games are included, which is a shame to not include Substance and Subsistence in this collection.
The extras in each title include the Screenplay and Master Books, which are excellent additions, and can help stuck players, as they're essentially strategy guides baked into the package. There is also a small selection of music in each collection to listen to while reading.
The bonus content is okay. The extra soundtrack is very small. The extra games are strange curiosities from the NES/Famicom, but I'm glad to see them in here, even if they're not well-regarded, as they help to tell a bigger story about the franchise. The digital graphic novels are short films that were in the Legacy Collection on the PS3. They are helpful if you want to skip MGS 1 and 2, but still have the story. They're okay, but still nice to have in here. Weird that the bonus material has its own launcher, too. Would have been better if they had been included in the MG 1 and 2 bundle, but it's fine. You don't seem to be able to acquire this part of the package separately, however, you have to buy the full collection to get access to this content.
Overall, it's not a bad collection, but definitely needed some more effort from Konami. Hopefully Vol 2 will be done better, and even more, I hope for a unified collection in the future.

Update: i finished it, my main problem is that konami lied that it runs in 1080p when in reality its 720 with no way to change it and the audio sounds muffled at times, other than that mgs 3 is still incredible and it's nice that i can play it whenever i want on steam
only speaking on mgs 3 as thats the only one i bought, its good, it's nice being able to open steam and just boot it up, there are some weird audio things but other than that i cant complain, probably won't be buying 1 or 2 since i own the gog versions but i'll update my review if i ever end up buying them on ps5

As a PC-only gamer and someone who wanted to play MGS 3, this port is a blessing 🙏 Had some slowdown at the beginning but it runs smoothly after that.
Console: 3 of 5 - A barebones port job, but the option to download the original Japanese versions along with other regional editions & the Screenplay/Master Books make this worthwhile for newcomers and fans. The games are presented as close to originally intended as possible and the devs made some fixes to MGS2 & 3 (codec delay is gone in MGS2; that bug single handedly adds multiple unskippable hours to a normal play through), so I do applaud them for going the extra mile in that aspect.
PC version: 1 of 5 - A horrid rush job with ABYSMAL optimization, no resolution options, and no keyboard support. The fact that this was released in this state is so typical of modern Konami and I’m so very scared for the Snake Eater Remake. Modders will definitely make this the definitive version of the games in time, but do not buy this game as is at full price; if you have to pick one buy one of the console versions.

A Masterpiece Bundled In a Shoddy and Disappointing Port
Oh man how do I review this? I bought this collection solely for Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater because it's the only one of the first 3 MGS games that I've never played. I've considered emulating because of the reception but with mods and fixes, I'd say it looks and plays better.
We've got so many memorable and grounded characters, amazing CODEC conversations, a stamina system that I didn't hate, charming and campy villains, and a story that moved me to tears. My only personal gripes was the final boss theme kicked off when the fight's almost over and it took me a while to get used to the controls. I still fumble with aiming and crouching on intense situations at the end.
The remastered efforts though leaves a lot to be desired. A bunch of crashes, glaringly low quality and sometimes missing textures, colors are washed out, and at one point PARA-MEDIC's voice changed.
Overall, with HD mods and Reshade, it's an almost perfect experience and very well worth playing in 2023. I'm glad this exists for us first-timers but I hope it gets patched up eventually. I can put up with it but It sucks that this masterpiece of a game is not treated with the appropriate love and care.
My experience with Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is a 5/5 but because of the shoddy port, I'll settle for a 4/5
