Metal Gear Solid is a difficult game to critique. It’s stiff controls and fixed camera angles definitely feel dated but, at the same time, feel just right. The long cutscenes pull me out of the action, but pull me into the game’s world. The difficulty can spike in an instant, and yet it’s part of why the game is so satisfying. Simply put, Metal Gear Solid is still one of the best games on the PlayStation, and one gamers should absolutely play.
These groundbreaking video games changed gaming forever and drew in scores of fans in the process.
From first-person espionage thrillers to the original installments of beloved franchises, check out the greatest retro video games we recommend for anyone.
I’d have taken a few of those out. Prefer Sonic over Sonic 2. Outrun should be in there. Maybe even Pong as millions of people had fun with that even if it was repetitive. Final Fight pipped any Streets of Rage game, although Streets of Rage had the better soundtrack. Too many to list l guess. To me, retro gaming is the 1980s, maybe going into early 1990s.
Agree that the generational gap is too broad to really make a strong list. Need to tighten the years a bit. Hard to compare Pac Man with N64 games.
Get a glimpse at how the remake of Metal Gear Solid 3 will be updated through the use of Unreal Engine 5.
It looks wonderful visually. Frame rate is very inconsistent though, and definitely running sub-30's at times. I get that this is an alpha version. I just hope we can hit a locked 60 on the final release. Also, I kind of wish they'd expanded the areas a bit. Might feel a bit odd going through these sections that are still clearly going to be on a PS2 scale in size.
They should expand where necessary and I really hope they do justice to this remake. IMO this remake should be top tier like dead space, resident evil 2 & 4 and demon souls
I am speaking quality wise
I mean, you can say that to yourself while you're drugged up on Xbox pills. Changes nothing. :)
"Insulted" — says the guy running around like a headless chicken trying to convince folks to care about his favorite box. Ok champ!
If you actually have a counter argument to this being a multiplatform game and how "A multiplatform adventure in the jungle" was a "nasty reply", I'm all ears.
I'll even help you... what is the counter to this being a multiplatform game and why is that a nasty reply?
I was never in any argument or debate. You accused me of being on xbox pills. That was a nasty reply. I am done here. Not going to waste my time here
I mean, if someone responds to you with a factual correction and you reply with "Xbox xbox xbox", I'm not sure what kind of response should be expected.
If someone replied with "Ps ps ps", I'm sure you would wonder what is going on, especially if nothing wrong was said to you.
A factual correction?? What the..? I'm very confused here What were you correcting?
I thought you were done? :P
Answer: it's just as much a PlayStation/PC adventure as it is Xbox.
So i hurt your feelings by not mentioning Playstation/pc on an Xbox event article correct?
Hurt MY feelings? Once again, if someone replies with "Xbox xbox xbox", it's clear that they are affected by something more than they should be. You then double down with some BS about N4G (like this place is immune to trash talked about anyone else but them).
Plus, I thought you were leaving? You can't help yourself. XD
Because, at the moment, the most technically problematic and disappointing games run on it. 540p upscaled next gen goodness.
Disappointing if resolution is a huge deal for you.
Personally, I feel a re-tooled FOX Engine would have done great. If it was a PS5/PC only title, I think Decima would have been an excellent choice.
One of my all time favorites. It was way ahead of its time. Guess that's why it still holds up well today ;7
Although I didn't like MGS after this one, it still remains one of my all time favorite games. A true classic.
