Metal Gear Solid: The Legacy Collection Sneaks Into Stores Soon

I own every retail copy of every Metal Gear game since the NES. I will be getting this Collection as well, bringing the total number of copies I have of Snake Eater (original, Subsistance, Essential Collection, HD Collection, 3DS, Legacy Collection) to 6. You might call me a fan of the series.

I'm totally fucking picking this up.

EDIT: For the record, I only have the original MGS on PS1 I picked up and haven't beaten so this seems like a score.

That's a lot of metal gears.

They're just packing in the HD collection that Bluepoint Games did for them, and those included the full Substance and Subsistence versions and features (excluding the skate-board mini-game in Substance and the "Secret Theater" parody cutscenes in Subsistence).

Substance, Subsistence, A PS2 box set, a PS3 HD collection and now a PS3 box set.

Old school record label levels of re-releasing.

Do not want or care. Everything after MGS 1 just got to fuckin weird for me to play through. I can get all the weird MGS story shit from youtube and not give a FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKK about the game play!

I really want this released in Europe. Konami stiffed us on the last collection and they seem to want to do it again :(

This better release in Europe. You hear that, Kojima? New Missile Crisis: Japan Edition, or release in Europe. Your choice.

@alistercat: I thought PS3 was always region free. Or is it up to the developer to lock a game down or not.

I only ever played Metal Gear Solid on the original Playstation and I'm interested in this, but my tolerance for overwrought anime pseudo-philosophizing disappeared after the age of 25.

They took out most of the bonus stuff from Subsistence. Secret Theatre, the movie thing that came with the EU version (it was awful anyway, no loss), Snake vs Monkey (the BIGGEST loss) and even Snake's Nightmare (even BIGGER biggest loss) which came in the original game.

I will probably pick this up. I've been wanting to play through MGS2 and 3 again. Those games were my youth.

The rabid fandom for this series even after it jumped the shark worse than the Star Wars prequels with mitaclorians continues to dumbfound me.

@paulunga: Its the "Legacy" Edition. Meaning games that Kojima was directly involved in. PO and the Ac!d games aren't apart of his legacy. So the real question is where the hell is my Ghost Babel and the Document of MGS2?

Eh. I had the special editions on the originals. So, I will pass.

They double dip on MG way too much.

Sony don't own the rights to the original Metal Gear Solid in any capacity. It was on their console. That's it.

Will you be able to play the PSP games on PS3?

@pandabear: He was saying, it's the PS1 version. As in, Xbox does not have PS1 architecture to run it.

why does it have the sound track from The Rock?

The only game franchise were I have played all the games atleast 2 times. (except the PSP ones) I might just have to pick this up and play threw them all once more (for the trophies of course).

lol, get a PS3 at some point, brother.
