Metal Gear Solid Delta features seamless cutscene transitions not possible in the original

Metal Gear Solid Delta is proving much more than 'just' a remaster, with Konami drip-feeding subtle, and welcome presentation improvements.

The original was such a unique experience, I hope they've managed to capture this with the remake.

2 legendary games remade

Is this a remaster or remake?

[Chocoburger]

A little bit of both. Its not a remake in the sense of Resident Evil or Final Fantasy remakes. Those games had a huge budget, different stories, and feature no legacy aspects, which make them "full true reimagined games".

MGS 3: Delta is a mid-tier budget game. New controls and gameplay improvements, but uses the old small PS2 map design with modern graphics placed on top. Enemy AI and boss fights should be extremely similar from the original. Voice acting from 2004 as well, with a near identical script.

In some ways this may be a good thing, I don't want a Twin Snakes situation here, but in other ways, its close enough to the original game where it won't feel like a new experience outside of the modern controls.

Some may claim its either a good or bad thing to make such a close graphical remake of the legendary game. But either way your stance may be, its not an ambitious game, that much is made clear.

I guess the way to differentiate from a Remaster and a Remake is if the game’s code has been completely redone. I used to feel if assets were made from the ground up that constituted as a Remake whereas a Remaster was just a game upscaled with better performance, basically the same game but with Max PC settings.

Look at The Last of Us Remastered (Remastered… obviously) and Last of Us Part 1 (full on Remake with new code) as opposed to Crisis Core (PSP base game) and Crisis Core: Reunion (Remaster even though they remade all the visuals, it still is using the PSP code).
