Metal Gear Solid HD - Collection (PS3)

Product Information

You'll spend a lot of time slithering through the grass, but the slow pace ratchets up the suspense. Performance improves somewhat when using classic Overhead Camera due to limiting render distance in these instances. Final segment of Metal Gear Solid 3 experiences severe slowdown due to CPU bottleneck, but is still playable. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.

Overall, this is a solid (pun intended) package, but these games are not perfect and they never were. Presumably as a result of the lower analog sensitivity, maneuvering along walls in the PS Vita version in both directions is sometimes impossible. A digital download was also announced on August 7 on the Metal Gear Solid Facebook page at 5:49 PM, with release dates ranging from August 21 (PS Vita and PS3 releases of Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty HD and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater HD, as well as the Xbox 360 Game-On-Demand version of the HD Collection minus Peace Walker) and August 28 (Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of Peace Walker and the Metal Gear Solid: HD Collection Bundle including all three games).Most of the soldiers you recruit are useless so they aren't any good as you progress through the game, so you have to rely on unique (storyline)characters and POWs which you find around the place, as well as the 'recruit option'. While a few little things are missing, they’re barely noticeable and hardly detract from the completeness of the collection. On November 30, Zavvi changed the name from Ultimate HD Collection to Ultimate HD Edition, and announced that its altered the contents of its advertised Metal Gear Solid: HD Ultimate Edition set. The graphics of MGS2 was quite simply stunning and the best ever when this came out, and today in 2012 they still stand their ground, especially with the HD lighting although it's obvious the textures are from the PS2-era.

Lip syncing doesn't match up, textures pop in here and there, and bland Peace Walker textures don't exactly light up the big screen. The console versions of Peace Walker feature dual analog controls, allowing players to control the camera or their aim with the right stick.

Moving from a portable device to the big screen is the best thing that could have happened to this handheld side story. For the remastering, all three games underwent graphics overhaul to allow them to support modern 720p resolution and 60FPS framerate on home consoles, and Trophy support. Once you get out of the early missions, that aspect fades away, but it's definitely a rough start to the games and an intro I doubt you'd see nowadays.
