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.
