Let's Revive | Metal Gear Solid

With continuous talk over the years of Konami searching for another studio to revive the Original Metal Gear Solid, xC4Lx shares his 'two cents', reliving his memories and general tomfoolery as he gives his opinion on this 1998 classic. A successful attempt to remind us why this topic should be revisited? Or just voicing passion, in the overwhelming legion of fans that want to see xC4Lx's and their dreams Revived.

you know I am okay with this article. I honestly would love a current gen graphics remake of MGS...yup I would like to revisit that with all new mechanics.

Neonridr3680d ago

if the Twin Snakes Gamecube version didn't exist I would agree with a remake. But that version looks leaps and bounds better than the original PS release.

xCursed4Lifex3680d ago

Unfortunately, Twin Snakes had several flaws, although it was an improvement on a title designed to be great, voice acting re-done, first person, improved AI etc... Imagine what an established studio could do on the current gen consoles as KumaKreations mentioned all those lovely new mechanics... If the GameCube was leaps and bounds, PS3 and Xbox 360 would be jumping over the moon, like the cow. I'd pay to see that!

Rather than remake Metal Gear Solid which has already been done, why not remake the MSX games on a modern engine in Kojima's usual style? I think that would be much more productive for the franchise.

rustyspoon803679d ago

Definitely, I'd love to see up to date Metal Gear 1&2.

xCursed4Lifex3680d ago

Update: Hideo Kojima surprises the audience @E3 by announcing Metal Gear Solid will come to Xbox consoles.

I_am_Batman3679d ago (Edited 3679d ago )

I think that would make sense (even though I don't think it'll happen). I also think they should port MGS4 to Xbox One (and PS4 when they are already making a next gen port).

Metal Gear Solid is a very story driven franchise and it doesn't make much sense to me to release MGSV on Xbox One when 2 key games are missing on Xbox consoles completely.

Scissorman823679d ago

I am the only one that feels that the original MGS should not have been remade? I loved Twin Snakes but I still prefer the original. Personally, I would love to see Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2 remade with the same engine that powered MGS. It wouldn't cost as much to develop and Konami could release them digitally.

Ratty3679d ago (Edited 3679d ago )

It shouldn't have been remade with that team at the very least. It's not like they had a huge challenge. They had the MGS2 engine and plenty of resources but they decided to waste it on over-the-top cutscenes when they could've just gone with something very similar with subtle changes.

Edit: Oh yeah and re-recording the voices. I understand the need for it but why did they have to go out of their way to do worst acting? Especially Jennifer Hale. I was like what the hell is going on with her.

I don't think they should remake any Metal Gear at all. They're already perfect the way they are.

I’d have taken a few of those out. Prefer Sonic over Sonic 2. Outrun should be in there. Maybe even Pong as millions of people had fun with that even if it was repetitive. Final Fight pipped any Streets of Rage game, although Streets of Rage had the better soundtrack. Too many to list l guess. To me, retro gaming is the 1980s, maybe going into early 1990s.

Popsicle42d ago

Agree that the generational gap is too broad to really make a strong list. Need to tighten the years a bit. Hard to compare Pac Man with N64 games.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater - Official Unreal Engine 5 Trailer | Xbox Partner Preview

Get a glimpse at how the remake of Metal Gear Solid 3 will be updated through the use of Unreal Engine 5.

Snookies12188d ago

It looks wonderful visually. Frame rate is very inconsistent though, and definitely running sub-30's at times. I get that this is an alpha version. I just hope we can hit a locked 60 on the final release. Also, I kind of wish they'd expanded the areas a bit. Might feel a bit odd going through these sections that are still clearly going to be on a PS2 scale in size.

neutralgamer1992187d ago

They should expand where necessary and I really hope they do justice to this remake. IMO this remake should be top tier like dead space, resident evil 2 & 4 and demon souls

I am speaking quality wise

CrimsonWing69188d ago

Holy sh*t that looks good! I hope they don't censor it.

GamerRN187d ago

What is there to censor, I never played 3

An Xbox adventure in the jungle

BehindTheRows187d ago

*A multiplatform adventure in the jungle.

autobotdan187d ago

Mentions xbox on n4g. Prepares for nasty n4g comments replys

BehindTheRows187d ago

I mean, you can say that to yourself while you're drugged up on Xbox pills. Changes nothing. :)

autobotdan187d ago

Man you get insulted whan someone mentions xbox. You might need medicine

BehindTheRows187d ago

"Insulted" — says the guy running around like a headless chicken trying to convince folks to care about his favorite box. Ok champ!

BehindTheRows187d ago (Edited 187d ago )

If you actually have a counter argument to this being a multiplatform game and how "A multiplatform adventure in the jungle" was a "nasty reply", I'm all ears.

I'll even help you... what is the counter to this being a multiplatform game and why is that a nasty reply?

autobotdan187d ago (Edited 187d ago )

I was never in any argument or debate. You accused me of being on xbox pills. That was a nasty reply. I am done here. Not going to waste my time here

BehindTheRows187d ago (Edited 187d ago )

I mean, if someone responds to you with a factual correction and you reply with "Xbox xbox xbox", I'm not sure what kind of response should be expected.

If someone replied with "Ps ps ps", I'm sure you would wonder what is going on, especially if nothing wrong was said to you.

autobotdan187d ago

A factual correction?? What the..? I'm very confused here What were you correcting?

BehindTheRows187d ago

I thought you were done? :P

Answer: it's just as much a PlayStation/PC adventure as it is Xbox.

autobotdan187d ago

So i hurt your feelings by not mentioning Playstation/pc on an Xbox event article correct?

BehindTheRows187d ago

Hurt MY feelings? Once again, if someone replies with "Xbox xbox xbox", it's clear that they are affected by something more than they should be. You then double down with some BS about N4G (like this place is immune to trash talked about anyone else but them).

Plus, I thought you were leaving? You can't help yourself. XD

Unreal Engine...how disappointing.

Apovyk187d ago

UE5 is the best looking engine on the market today - why is that disappointing?

RedDeadLB187d ago

Because, at the moment, the most technically problematic and disappointing games run on it. 540p upscaled next gen goodness.

DarXyde187d ago

Disappointing if resolution is a huge deal for you.

Personally, I feel a re-tooled FOX Engine would have done great. If it was a PS5/PC only title, I think Decima would have been an excellent choice.
