@PupilsDilated It'll probably end up being a PS5 launch title, if we're lucky.

After this comes out maybe Konami can focus on making a real Silent Hill HD Collection that isn't made on a shoestring budget. Also, throw in part four.

@suprasheep Disney and Square-nix are involved so they will milk the series for all they could get like Disney movies and Final Fantasy games.

This is definitely the one i am getting, i'm glad i didn't pickup the HD collection when it came out. Just too bad MGS & VR missions is a voucher and not on the disc. But besides that its a great collection for the price.

This is like quadruple dipping now. I've already bought each of the individual games when they came out and the HD pack, so i cant see that many people that would really want this. It's a nice package and it is good value, but how many people do not already own most if not all of the collection separately already?

I might actually pick this up if I ever get caught up on video games coming out this year. I've only played a small part of MGS4 and liked it but felt like I was missing a lot, so I'd love to play through the whole series eventually.

This is for people who don't own the games or are experiencing it again/for the first time, so why would you buy something you already have? People I swear...

This collection is dumb. They just released mgs hd collection. on top of that they already had essentials collection. So now they want me to buy ANOTHER collection pack of the same game but they threw in vr training so i can buy? Konami u guys are fags. i love mgs but this is just ridiculous. I would rather have Mgo1 back or mgo2 back then play the same collection over n over n over. WTF HAPPENED TO PORTABLE OPS its 10x better than peace walker in my opinion. Stop making all these collections with overlapping content from one another with one thing added. Then on top of their collections you already have 2 copies of mgs2 and 3 with substance and subsistence. Yeah lets make another collection than make mgs4 expansion. I wuld rather have an expansion for 4 than another collection. But that is just me.

considering the fact that a multiplatform collection was released not that long ago , and that MGS4 and MGS1 are available, both in physical and digital forms cheaply, I really don't see why this is necessary.

Wish people would stop asking asking for Twin Snakes just because it has better graphics. What, can you not play PS1 games anymore? Too Spoilt?

The PS1 version is the original and the best and that's an end of it.

It'd be better if they had "Twin Snakes," the gamecube remake of Solid 1 in addition to just an upresed version of the first. I'd be a little more interested in that since I already have 2 and 3 HD versions on 360 for $15 combined plus 4 on PS3. Twin Snakes is really the only one that hasn't been heard of since it's release and is actually my favorite iteration.

This article should only be in the PS3 exclusive section of gamespot. It has nothing (unfortunately) to do with Xbox or PC. I wish this was coming to PC!

I hope they delayed it to put MGS and VR Missions on a disc instead of giving us a crappy voucher. It's a stupid collection when they half-ass it like that.

@HerbalVideogame I just hope when you capture tanks, apcs and such in MGS:V they will actually appear in combat when you use/summon them.

I know the early demo worked with helicopters.

sounds good if done right, but it sounds like a system that would be OP far too easily, if not balanced right

@snova9308 @Adavanter @HerbalVideogame Don't forget parts of this are somewhat like Just Cause 2. Where large scale alerts bring in a ton of fire power on Snake.

Plus I assume the best stuff will be found with stealth.
