    Wasn't excited about this until literally three days ago. Preordered from Amazon, but the games wont get touched until after the November blitz!

    I wonder how the Peace Walker version handles random soldier generation. In the PSP game, it grabs you random dudes when you do a "search" and generates them from the IP addresses the handhold can find. How does that work on a console that never moves, or is physically connected to the network and doesn't have wireless enabled?

    I saw, I think on IGN, that if you pre-order or get the Collector's Edition, I can't remember which one, you get a code that will let you download it from the PSN store. I'm nto sure if it's an HD version or the classic.

    I had this question as well. I don't see any mention of it on this limited edition listing on Amazon, or as a preorder bonus, which just doesn't make it feel as much like a "collection" if that makes any sense.

    I also found this article mentioning an Ultimate collection, but I don't see any mention of it on Zavvi's website.

    So this is actually coming out soon? I swear I heard somebody mention a week ago that it got delayed until 2012.

    I'll probably wait to hear how PW plays. If they properly rejiggered the controls, then I'll be all over this game.

    Metal Gear thread?

    (that joke never gets old)

    I must confess; in a month filled with Triple-A titles with crazy current graphics like Uncharted 3, Skyrim, and Zelda Skyward Sword (well, that one's not exactly "current gen", but it's going to be as pretty as one), this might be the one game I'm the most excited about.

    Frankly, I keep dreading something will go wrong, because it all sounds too good to be true: Fully remastered graphics, 60 fps, the ability to turn off black bars during cutscenes, redrawn icons and portraits, AND online multiplayer? Plus all the extras from Substance and Subsistence as well as the original MG 1 and 2?

    If this goes smoothly, this will easily be the ultimate benchmark for HD re-releases. Seriously, who else is going to put out that much effort? There's a Devil May Cry Collection coming up and I already know Capcom's going to mess that up. Not like it had a chance anyway seeing how it includes DMC2.

    I'm just bummed the Limited Edition wasn't a meatier package to justify the price; with Newegg selling the game at $40, it would take a seriously diehard (and stupid) person to spend double that amount just for an artbook that's half the size of the Japanese one.

    You seen their LE? A 450 page artbook, a Snake figure, and a voucher for MGS1. That would have gotten my extra dollars.

    In any event, I feel I should start things off with a confession.

    I like Twin Snakes better than the original MGS1.



    I know...it's stupid.

    But it also has plenty of awesome moments, so I can forgive an anime side-flip here and there.

    I would also like to request a gif of said side-flip, if possible.

    Along with that gif of Ocelot in MGS4. I've seen it before, but can't find it for the life of me now.

    Dang, I was going to make the OT. It was going to be flash and stuff.

    Edit: Well if you want my MGS2, MGS3 and MGS: PW banners, give me a PM.

    It should also be pointed out that the achievements are different from the trophies:

    PS3 Trophies
    MGS2 Trophy List
    MGS3 Trophy List
    MGS: PW Trophy List

    360 Achievements

    Edit #2: Probably worth mentioning both the US and PAL release dates as well. I've imported, as there's no way I'm waiting until fucking February. Konami Europe continue to suck.

    I never did finish Portable Ops (camera issues made it hard to get into). Is that going to be a problem jumping into Peace Walker, or is it mostly self-contained from that game?

    Oh and one thing I forgot in my last post to the OP. The Vita versions are scheduled for Early 2012.

    Have they mentioned how they're doing the controls for 360?

    The 360 doesn't have pressure sensitive face buttons, so interrogating enemies (or slitting their throats) wouldn't work properly in MGS3, nor would aiming in 2 or 3

    Nothing mentioned on the internets anywhere, but general consensus is that aiming and firing will most likely be handled with the left and right triggers. Not sure on interrogating. Probably one button to grab the guy, push another button to slit his throat.

    Or maybe, one button to grab the guy and half-pull RT to interrogate complete-pull to slit throats.

    Or maybe they developed some completely new control scheme to deal with the Xbox controller, I dunno. Gamecube didn't have pressure sensitive buttons, and I don't remember Twin Snakes being overly complicated.

    Wasn't MGS2 on OXbox? How'd that go?

    Substance was released on xbox. I had it and it had some minor issues, like spots where the framerate would shit the bed on the tanker with all the rain and transparency effect around the edges of hair looked like poop. Controls were fine though.

    Still, I'm getting this on PS3. I already have MGS1 which plays in it and of course 4. Not being able to play Snake Eater on my slim was 90% of the reason I was pissed at my ex for stealing my BC PS3.

    Also incredibly excited for Peace Walker. Love me some Big Boss.

    So, I've never played Peace Walker, as I didn't own a PSP. I know this game is pretty big on co-op, so a few questions...

    1) Can the game still be enjoyed if you play most of it on single player?

    2) Should we exchange gamertags to set up a co-op game? I'd love to meet up at a specific time and play together tomorrow, if anyone else is down.
