Heard Metal Gear is going to be on PS4 as well. Rumored as a console exclusive at that.
Hell yeah!
Good stuff.
The fact that all of these games already have PC/Windows releases makes me think that they are just going to release those versions again as download titles. That would be sorta nice but could also potentially suck if they just release them as is. MGS1 and especially MGS2 have problems when running on modern Windows and Metal Gear 1 was a DOS port of the NES game which would be disappointing. Although the Gematsu article shows that the picture accompanying the first game is from a what I assume to be the MGS3: Subsistence release so who knows.
Metal Gear on PC would be great but why not go all out and bring back the Legacy Collection?
Has Konami been doing anything lately? lol
Cmon, we want twin snakes!!! Modded with the original soundtrack
If you're talking about The Twin Snakes, yes. But most people preferred the PS1 original.
TTS tried to implement a lot of the game play changes made in MGS2. General consensus was that they didn't mesh well with the way the original game was designed. Plus, TTS also had some investment from Nintendo. Konami isn't that dedicated to sort out what Nintendo does and doesn't own from TTS when they know most people will be just as happy with the PS1 game that has no strings attached to it.
