Freeing MGS4 from its PS3-exclusive prison after 18 years is a benefit to the fandom. The end of the saga should be available to modern and non-Sony hardware. Furthermore, I can't wait to see what it's like at high resolutions and 60FPS. I'd tinkered with emulation and while some cutscene physics were wonky, the game is absolutely gorgeous when it is fluid under such circumstances. It really was held back by hardware. This is a massive win for fans new and old alike.
Peace Walker is an important part of the story, especially connecting 3 to 5, and likewise I'm glad it is now multiplat. I can't imagine any serious improvements beyond resolution compared to the HD collection. And there's only so much mileage PSP geometry can get. But this is good. Very happy CO OP is retained.
Ghost Babel is a hidden gem. I don't care for the MSX games, but this one "felt" much more like the 3D titles in spite of being 8 Bit. The Gameboy Color obscurity is something every fan should give a try at some point.
Volume 3: The most likely candidates are Portable Ops, Rising, Mobile, and the ACID games. Maybe Twin Snakes if rights issues can be sorted out. There's really not much else is there? Social Ops and Touch - there was no story at all in those, right? Pseudo-canon or otherwise? MGSV is also possible as it's never made it to a Nintendo system, but I doubt that's a high priority right now. I guess the 3DS version of Snake Eater might happen. Oh ! And Survive. I keep forgetting that existed.
