Una delle peggiori remastered/collection di sempre
A parte MGS1 che si gioca come lo si è sempre giocato e a parte il fatto che hanno messo la possibilità di giocare le versioni di regioni diverse (europee, americane e giapponesi), la possibilità di emulare i salvataggi, di leggere il manuale altrimenti inaccessibile e la possibilità di guardare gli script e sentire la soundtrack, gli altri 2 giochi, MGS2 e MGS3 sono un disastro totale.
Questi ultimi 2 sono inferiori in tutto e per tutto alla HD Edition sbarcata su ps3 e 360 nel 2011 e non presentano ALCUN MIGLIORAMENTO. Cosa che i modder sono riusciti a fare anche solo con un semplice fix ed un file .ini da poter modificare a piacimento. È assurdo che per una collection rilasciata al lancio a 60 euro succeda questo.
Compratelo solamente su PC dove con le mod potete veramente rendere questi giochi il meglio del meglio e comunque vi consiglio di comprarlo tramite key od in forte sconto. Evitate le versioni console. Pensate che su xbox è meglio giocare l'HD Collection del 2011 in retrocompatibilità che giocare questa nuova versione e non parliamo proprio invece della versione switch.

I have had an unorthodox exposure to the Metal Gear games. Played 2 when I was like 12 and just didn't get it. Played the NES game on an emulator in middle school and again didn't get it. I then skip ahead to Phantom Pain and loved it. But it belonged to a friend and only got through the first hour and a bit.

Now I'm gonna work my way all the way through. Long overdue but after beating Metal Gear Solid 1 I can say that while I think I would have liked them in highschool I'm glad to have such a fantastic series a head of me in my adult life.

The first game holds up incredibly well and despite a few things that have aged poorly it is still incredibly fun. Impressive for its time for sure. Great sense of humor. Goofy, over the top, soapy post cold war plot that is a lot of fun. Controls are dated but serviceable. Graphics are charming.

Banger.

Horrible collection of "ports".
MGS2 and 3 just running an emulator to play the HD collection, but somehow having anti-aliasing and texture filtering turned OFF, makes this genuinely lower graphical quality on ps5 than the HD collection on ps3.

MGS1 not supporting analogue movement, despite being openly admitted to be a ps1 emulation, and the ORIGINAL GAME SUPPORTED DUALSHOCK ANALOGUE JOYSTICKS, demonstrates that this is PURELY an issue of Konami's ps1 emulator team not bothering to include analogue movement support that FREE EMULATORS PROVIDE.

Do not buy

This was my first encounter with the MGS series and it sucks that this is how I was able to experience such a beloved videogame franchise. The ports are just old ports that had to be re-released due to licensing issues and you can tell their age. It would've been nice if these were actual remasters. It's most notable in MGS1 as it almost looks fuzzy. The storytelling and cinematography holds up very well still and I loved what Hideo Kojima has created. I couldn't give it a lower score because I really did enjoy these games. Just sucks that they aren't real remasters. Looking for to Metal Gear Delta now!

Great value collection, questionable performance, resolution and optimisation.

Once, while playing the first game of all things, the cutscenes lagged like a scratched DVD. And of all my childhood memories, scratched DVDs is not one I need a reminder of.

If they had such trouble porting 1-2-3, I'm scared for Volume 2. MGS4 is a ps3 game, its gonna be finnicky to port, and their current record is not stellar.

I really wish it was better because the actual content of this collection is great

If you are interested in my thoughts on each game check them out here:

MGS3 - https://www.backloggd.com/u/Flameyboy928/review/1443379/

I never had any experience with the Metal Gear franchise before playing them through this and it served that purpose well. It provided a lot of extra content that I haven't really looked at much and it also provides the old NES game which is a nice addition.

As previously mentioned I never played these games before so I cant really comment on any performance differences as all three games ran perfectly fine for me but apparently compared to previous ports it doesn't hold up as well. Also when it comes to MGS1 moments like switching controllers during the Psycho Mantis fight and finding Meryl's frequency are much more tedious as you cant just pull the controller out and plug it into the other slot or look on the back of the game case (If you bought it digitally at least, like I did)

Obviously its a cash grab as most ports are but I think it gives enough content to not go down as a waste of money. Im wondering what they will include if they do a volume 2. Overall not a bad way to experience these sensational games in the current day

Aqui vão ter duas reviews, uma pros jogos em si, que eu rejoguei depois de mil anos, mas a nota e a segunda parte da review vão ser pra esse port em especifico.

A trilogia dos msgs é simplesmente absurda, eu de verdade tinha esquecido a magia que esses jogos tem, apesar do 1 e algumas coisas do 2 terem envelhecido meio mal. Eu amo a mecânica do mgs 1 q nao te contam nada e se você quer descobrir as coisas, tem que ligar pelo codec pro pessoal te contar.

EU AMO a história do mgs 2, parece que tão fazendo um copy paste do mgs 1 até q no final tudo é revelado em 45 plot twists seguidos feitos de maneira impecavel. Além disso, ele melhora a gameplay do primeiro jogo em tudo.

Mgs 3 é o apice dessa franquia, as mecânicas survival, a exploração, os bosses, a história, tudo é absurdo, a gameplay é um upgrade de tudo que teve antes na franquia e mostra a origem de varias coisas reveladas no mgs 2.

Agora para o review desse port:

mgs 1 não ter recebido nenhum QOL update é absurdo, no minimo widescreen support devia ter... Literalmente com 5 cliques no duckstation você deixa o jogo MUITO melhor que esse port, é assustador.

mgs 2 e 3 tem a qualidade de audio MUITO RUIM, e eu não sou uma pessoa que presta atenção nisso, mas até eu consegui notar. E eles foram tao preguiçosos que nem trocaram as logos e loading screens da hd collection do ps3. Juro, é aterrorizante o quanto a konami é preguiçosa. Tenho medo pelo remake de mgs 3 e de silent hill 2 que estão por vir.

Probably the best value you can get out of 60 bucks. So so so much content here, sure the preformance isn't anything amazing (especially on switch), but dude there's like 10 games here depending on how you count it. The new UI design on all the games is amazing. I do wish that collections like this would go back to being one application with a grand menu and not 1 for each game or so, but I can acknowledge it's more convenient. And it's almost always on sale physically for like 20-30. Go get it and at least play 1 of them. Now we gotta hope that they make Vol. 2 so this doesn't fall into that annoying camp of unfinished game compilation series (which is a camp, yes.)

Imagine your best friend invites you to a barbeque. You sit down and he gives you a hamburger. On the surface, it’s pretty basic, and maybe it’s a little undercooked. But your buddy has a special sauce he uses on his burgers that enhances the flavor like nothing else; maybe even enough to make you forgive any mistakes with the cooking. It’s not the most elegant of meals, but it’s still a damn good time.

A couple weeks later, that same friend calls you over again. He says he’s hosting another barbeque, and now he’s got a fancy new grill and some sweet new toppings for his burgers. You rush over in anticipation and eagerly take your first bite. The bold new flavors wash over you and you’re instantly in love. But then you notice something a little strange: He swapped out the beef patty for a veggie burger. At first, you’re a bit disoriented, maybe even a little angry. After all, you didn’t ask for a veggie burger. But then you take a couple more bites and start to appreciate the change in direction. You notice how well the different flavors complement each other and the burger you had a couple weeks ago. And that special sauce you loved from the first burger is definitely still there. Eventually, you start reconsidering what can be done with a burger, and maybe even some things about yourself. One thing’s for sure, though: this is one meal you’ll never forget.

A long while later, your friend’s done with vegetables and is back to being big on beef. So big, in fact, that he now owns a 5-star restaurant. You make a reservation, head in, and order a hamburger. It’s a lot like the first one, but you can tell how much your friend has learned from both burgers he made. The meat is cooked perfectly. The ingredients are much higher quality. The special sauce is still there and is just as good as ever. Everything is perfectly portioned to make every bite a transcendental experience for your taste buds. And every element of the restaurant, from the burger itself to the service to the decorations to the chair you’re sitting in, is expertly crafted to serve up the ultimate hamburger experience. It’s the platonic ideal of a hamburger, if ever there was one.

Now imagine your friend’s restaurant gets bought out and he gets fired. They still sell his burgers, though, so you go in to order. They serve you decently enough, but then they offer you a side of fries that’s a little overcooked. It’s a bit disappointing, especially since you were really looking forward to the fries, but the burgers are still here and they’re still amazing.
