News: Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 2 Announced

[NateDog]

And Volume 1 is getting some love, including more resolution options (including clearer text) for MGS1 ....




...
And a 70GB optional DLC for Snake Eater's textures?!



I'm glad that's optional but... what the hell?  Why?

Lol SEVENTY GIGS? I thought this was going to be a fairly minor update, that's hilarious. Don't have Vol. 1 anyway so it doesn't affect me but that new MGS1 text just looks really wrong to me although it's good they included it.

That's almost all of Johnny Mnemonic's brain capacity for crying out loud!

But yeah, MGS1's original text never looked good on anything but a CRT.

Let's goo, MGS4 is free from the PS3! The worst part is to survive til Augut now thou, ahhhh.

MGS4 on PS5 before GTA6 XD

[Wayno]

I'd pay more if they released it without Peace Walker.

[NateDog]

OK I've read that the Vol 1. update isn't just a texture update, it's that everything will supposedly be uncompressed so that explains the size. Still, a bit strange.

Annoyingly I'd like Ghost Babel but buying this whole package is pointless for me, has it been confirmed yet if that's the "bonus" for buying the complete package as opposed to separately? Ah, yes it is. Load of shite.

[VRAM OK!]

Very disappointing MPO and Acid aren’t included.

I don’t ascribe to the idea that PO isn’t canon, because it was released as a direct sequel to MGS3 and its evens are clearly referenced in both MGS4 and Peace Walker. But even that aside, the fact that games likes Snake’s Revenge and Ghost Babel have or are being included demonstrates this should be a complete MG collection, regardless of whether the games are main line or not, the entire series should be included in these volumes. I’m hoping it’s just the case that so much effort was put into porting MGS4 that they didn’t have time for porting MPO or Acid 1/2 and that those games will appear on the next collection, but I’m not optimistic.
