Debunked Metal Gear Leaks Prove a Remake or Reboot Is Long Overdue

The latest rumor about a Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater remake has been dubunked, but it only makes the wait for the series' return even harder.

With how much Konami is re-investing in video game development, the return of Metal Gear Solid seems a matter of when not if. Still, it’s got to be done right. Remaking the beloved survival-horror game Silent Hill 2 seems like a daunting enough task, but that doesn’t even match the reverence fans have for Metal Gear.

It doesn't prove it at all
It might strengthen your opinion of it but that's not proof

porkChop366d ago

Metal Gear is dead. Just leave it alone. We've seen what happens when Kojima isn't involved in MG projects. We don't need to taint its legacy any more.

neutralgamer1992366d ago

bluepoint games could do it and do it well with input from kojima

i doubt konami will fund 50-75 million budget so that's where sony will come in(i think)

Snookies12366d ago

I agree if you are talking solely about NEW Metal Gear games. But Remasters/Remakes of older titles are VERY welcome at this point.

Ninver366d ago

FU. Myself and many gamers want a remake of MGS. It's probably the most requested remake yet keeps getting overlooked. It's actually quite annoying.

porkChop366d ago

MGS already got a full remake. How many times do you want them to remake the same game?

Ninver366d ago

What? When has MGS ps1 ever gotten a remake? I think you're confused.

Shane Kim366d ago (Edited 366d ago )

It got remade back on the gamecube. But that's a long time ago and it wasn't very good.

I_am_Batman366d ago (Edited 366d ago )

"What? When has MGS ps1 ever gotten a remake? I think you're confused."

Twin Snakes on Gamecube. It's MGS1 with MGS2 mechanics. It's usually not considered a very good remake, because it added some sillyness and the MGS2 mechanics trivialize the level design of Shadow Moses, but I have my doubts about Konami doing much better today to be honest.

Ninver366d ago

I don't consider that a remake. We're talking a true 1 for 1 remake of MGS1. Updated graphics and smother gameplay mechanics.

I personally think it will happen but why start with 3rd. I think sony will fund or co-fund the development and started with MGS1. Ask blue point games i am sure they can do amazing job

Snookies12366d ago

Probably because MGS 3 is the starting point of the entire franchise. Before even the original two Metal Gear games, and definitely before Metal Gear Solid 1. They'd be doing it in the proper order based off the timeline.

Hofstaderman366d ago

Chronological order would make sense on paper. There were however a lot of tongue in cheek reference to games that came before that may not translate so well if they release remakes chronologically.

sadraiden365d ago

There's no Metal Gear without Kojima. Period.

jeromeface365d ago (Edited 365d ago )

You don't need kojima to retell his story... we're not talking new content. If mgs gets remade there's nothing saying its going to be konami doing it.

Well, so much for the debunking.

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.

Popsicle39d ago

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.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater - Official Unreal Engine 5 Trailer | Xbox Partner Preview

Get a glimpse at how the remake of Metal Gear Solid 3 will be updated through the use of Unreal Engine 5.

Snookies12184d ago

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.

neutralgamer1992184d ago

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

CrimsonWing69184d ago

Holy sh*t that looks good! I hope they don't censor it.

GamerRN184d ago

What is there to censor, I never played 3

autobotdan184d ago

An Xbox adventure in the jungle

BehindTheRows184d ago

*A multiplatform adventure in the jungle.

autobotdan184d ago

Mentions xbox on n4g. Prepares for nasty n4g comments replys

BehindTheRows184d ago

I mean, you can say that to yourself while you're drugged up on Xbox pills. Changes nothing. :)

autobotdan184d ago

Man you get insulted whan someone mentions xbox. You might need medicine

BehindTheRows184d ago

"Insulted" — says the guy running around like a headless chicken trying to convince folks to care about his favorite box. Ok champ!

BehindTheRows183d ago (Edited 183d ago )

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?

autobotdan183d ago (Edited 183d ago )

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

BehindTheRows183d ago (Edited 183d ago )

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.

autobotdan183d ago

A factual correction?? What the..? I'm very confused here What were you correcting?

BehindTheRows183d ago

I thought you were done? :P

Answer: it's just as much a PlayStation/PC adventure as it is Xbox.

autobotdan183d ago

So i hurt your feelings by not mentioning Playstation/pc on an Xbox event article correct?

BehindTheRows183d ago

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

Unreal Engine...how disappointing.

Apovyk184d ago

UE5 is the best looking engine on the market today - why is that disappointing?

RedDeadLB184d ago

Because, at the moment, the most technically problematic and disappointing games run on it. 540p upscaled next gen goodness.

DarXyde184d ago

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.
