VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Who doesn't love a good video game compilation? They bring together multiple games previously spread out across the years or across various platforms and arrange them into a tidy, accessible package, often with some modern bells and whistles. Some of the best compilations of 2023 included Etrian Odyssey Origins Collection, which upgrades three classic quests in high-definition; The Lara Croft Collection, which brings isometric adventures Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light and Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris to Switch for the first time; Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection, the ultimate way to experience the saga; and Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol.1, home to several of Hideo Kojima's works of art."
Ver.2.0.0 will be available for users on PlayStation® 5, PlayStation® 4, Nintendo Switch™ & Xbox Series X|S beginning Nov. 15th, 2024.
I went back to MGS1 last month. Honestly, the voice acting and game are way beyond it's time. I had a blast. If you have not played it in some time, it's refreshing.
Its a masterpiece that has aged so gracefully. The controls may not be modern style, but they don't have to be, they just have to work well and be responsive, which they are.
You are out your mind if you’re thinking that. It’s still one of the best games ever made.
Ummmm going back to play one of the best games of my childhood a chore???
Nah nah nah. The game is way ahead of its time and is a better game than half the games they release this day and age.
Love mgs1 and it will always be a great game until the end of time!
Legend in its own right a piece of art that will stand the test of time.
When I pay $60 for a physical copy „master collection” of 20+ years old games, I expect to have the best possible version on disc not update on my console.
This collection was rushed out one year too soon, what a shame. Hoping that Vol. 2 is released in a better state.
The series has reached 62.1 million total sales as of the end of September 2024.
congrats, all the games are great
MGS on playstation is still one of my favourite games
hopefully Kojima gets some profits, d*** Konami
Duuro says: "I still like that this Master Collection exists, despite its flaws. It's definitely a time-capsule and if you are hungry to experience the brilliant stealth-action saga on modern consoles, you will find much to love. But you still have to remember that this is just a re-release and what was good back then in terms of controls, might feel rather alien nowadays."
Good stuff, but I feel like some collections like Etrian Odyssey are unappealing because of the price, or in the case of Metal Gear Solid, performance issues.
