The PlayStation 3 may not have been the strongest generation for Sony, but there were still some diamonds in the rough that deserve a revisit as PS5 remasters.
Even if they could just remaster and put on PSVR2, some would still look great as VR titles and could do a whole lot to bolster the headset w these exclusives! I'd imagine the investment of reworking these titles into VR would be way less than building new games from the ground up, and they could be amazing experiences, and VR often makes flat games feel fresh again. The Resistance and Killzone games are particularly what I want to see!!
The time is perfect for a resistance fall of man game campaign coop multiplayer
Resistance was ok but Warhawk and Starhawk was better and kept me coming back for almost a decade of fun and petty revenge on the loud mouth unskilled players 🤣
Edit I loved capture the flag dropping the pot on the flag carrier was extremely satisfying as well as transforming your plane in bot form and stumping them to death 😱
An article looking at the symbolic meaning behind the cigarettes in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots.
Game creator Hideo Kojima is and probably will always be best-known for his creation and stewardship of the Metal Gear series at Konami, which since his departure has been more-or-less on permanent hiatus (don't mention Survive). In his almost three decades these games evolved to the point where they predicted certain problems of the information age (MGS 2), took aim at contemporary topics like Guantanamo Bay (MGS: Ground Zeroes), and ended on a profound sense of sadness about our species' inability to break the cycles of global conflict (MGS V).
It's not clear what sparked this reflection, but Kojima's been thinking about Metal Gear Solid 4, an entry that was (and unfortunately still remains) a PlayStation 3 exclusive. In that entry the player controls an aged Solid Snake in the year 2014, caught up in a civil war being fought between Private Military Companies (PMCs).
He was always ahead with this series. MSG1 taught me about the importance of passing on our genes into future generations but in a responsible way, for they are bound to what we experienced in our lifetime. Sons of liberty taught me about global control and simulation runs to test society in a grand scale, the importance and dangers of control of information. MGS3 taught me about patriotism and how that can blind you into doing things you never would have otherwise, all for the sake of politicians who only see you as another pawn in their grand scheme of things. MSG4 taught me war is inevitable and always orchestrated because it's great for the economy. Soon simulation systems will start dictating who goes to war and why, all run through proxies. Privatization of military company are already here. We already started to see how a small group of elites dictates everything that happens. Nothing is done, nothing happens without strings being pulled.
If it wasn't for the retconning of how FOXDIE works, including clunky scenes with Naomi and Liquid, MGS4 would be a perfect game. There are so many gameplay options. It felt like us PS3 owners got something truly unique and special.
How sites afflicted with CNet like MetaCritic and GameRankings do NOT put all these 90%+ reviews but put in the very unprofessional review of Eurogamer.
Because you trolls even start saying MGS4 suck eurogamer was right, please try reading the reviews not the title only.

Congrats on the first game on a 9.0 + average review exclusive on the PS3 after 1.5 years!
Yes. Not my type of game, but it deserves the attention. And I bet a lot of PS3 owners were dying to get an exclusive with such an AAA rating.
I said this once and i say it again.
Our story as MGS Fans and Gamers will now Explode on the the 12th of June starting from the midnight lunch till we finish and clock the game.
I hearts will start to beat as we put the Blu-Ray Disk into the PS3 griping on to the gamepad to start a trip u have never been on before once PLAYSTATION 3 appears on are TV screens are hearts start to race just from hearing the intro music you've already fullen inlove its like ur first love all over again u'll become scared u become a hero you'll fight with ur last breath u'll cry ur understand everything after the end of the ur trip the 30 hours will be most fantasic hours that ur brain and memeorys will always remember as you play new emotions will be unlocked you will understand full mineing of what Konami ment by MGS 1,2,3, and 4. Once ur trip is finished you'll remeber all the bad commenets people said about MGS4 and start to laugh you'll look to the sun set and a tear will full down ur eye because u played you became apart of a world u never thought could happend and u finished ur first epic story started started from MGS1 or for thoes who never played it before and are Playing MGS4 for the first time ur Epic story has come to an end the joy u feel is like the the first time u see that brand new car in ur drive way or opening a christmass pressent or finding out that u got that dream job u always wanted you story is a story u'll be able to retall more than once in ur life time and also in ur next life.
MGS4 THIS IS LIVING!!!!!
Hope they put all these great reviews on Metacritic as they did with Halo 3. So far some are missing.
"The only game to beat it score is GTA4"... As much as that makes me happy.. We all know GTA4 was highly over rated and reviewed with hype, and who could out review the other..
So does this make the game better than GTA4 since Hype and rockstar were driving Perfect scores for GTA4...
I mean he didnt say GTA4 was a better game.. he just said score was higher.. but since the Score was tainted.. Does that put MGS4 on top??
Think about that one
