Hello! Here's another of our "Cardboard Box Vox Pops", where we get the general consensus of the forum on some simple questions.
For those of you that use a theme with a sidebox you'll have noticed the poll has appeared there to maximise the number of votes we get. If you wish to explain your answer feel free to in this thread, but otherwise, feel free to vote and explain nothing!

This time our question is about which game you will play first in Master Collection Vol. 2: MGS4 or Peace Walker?

Probably Ghost Babel for me since I never played it. And probably MGS4 after that, even though I still have my PS3, I’d like to see how it runs on PS5.

I'm going to wait for initial reports on whether these ports arrive in a better state than Volume 1 before diving in. But if everything is good out the gate, MGS4 for sure. Peace Walker? It's fine game, but no amount of increased resolution will hide its PSP origins. Diminishing returns. Ghost Babel is my favorite of the 8-bit Metal Gears, but it won't have changed one bit since my days of playing it on the Gamecube adapter.

MGS4 was never really able to be its full self. Rendered at a weird 4:3 768p ratio and stretched/upscaled to widescreen, with a fluctuating and never terribly high frame rate - it deserved to have been cast free of the Cell Processor's grasp for a very, very long time. It's long overdue to see what it "really" looks like at full resolution and a stable 60 fps.

MGS4, after seeing some various comments online about how MGSV is the "perfected" soldier collecting mechanic. And it's also a PSP game. So I'm not expecting much tbh. Though I wonder how co op will function, if it works. I'm don't really look too much into the details of a game untill it's fully released and people who aren't paid off give their honest feedback.

Ghost Babel option when?

MGS4! It was my introduction to the series and my friend and I spent so many hours passing a controller back and forth in endless replays. I’m excited to play it without the frame rate crashing out on me.

The most one sided vote we're ever going to see and I think the first vote for Dog Water was a sympathy vote by DD.

Ghost Babby for me too.

Ghost Babby for me too.

I'm actually really excited to come back to all of these games. Obviously, I'll be replaying MGS4 first and replaying it several times in a row like I did Delta, but I'm honestly just as eager to play Peace Walker and Ghost Babel as well. I have a lot of newfound fondness for the latter two. MGS4 is the one I'm most excited for because it's the game I liked the least for the longest time and I've come to look back and appreciate a lot of its creativity despite the glaring flaws of the entire second half. And I felt the same way about MGS1, which I used to loathe for a while before coming back around to loving it again, so I wanna see if I come away from MGS4 feeling the same way.
