Metal Gear Solid HD Collection announced for Xbox 360

MGS2, MGS3 and Peacewalker included

Konami is bringing Metal Gear Solids 2, 3 and Peacewalker to Xbox 360 in the form of the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection, due November this year.

UPDATE: Konami has confirmed that the Metal Gear Solid 3 update will include features and content from Subsistence.

ORIGINAL STORY: Announced at last night's Konami pre-E3 press conference, the collection will sport full 1080p visuals. Sadly Metal Gears of the PlayStation era and before haven't made the cut.

There's no word on whether the version of Metal Gear Solid 3 included is the original, Snake Eater, or Subsistence, the vastly improved revamp.

All together now: SNAAAAAAAKE.

  1. Any word on whether we are getting the Splinter Cell triple pack recently released on PS3? If not I suppose a bit of Snake will have to give me my spy fix.

  2. I haven't heard anything about SC, alas, but I'd be surprised if it wasn't on the cards.

  3. Awesome!

    I've never played Peace Walker; wish they'd included MGS 4 though, I don't have a PS3 and thats the one game that make me want one.

    *Edit - It is the Subsistence version of MGS 3:

    Metal Gear Solid HD Collection will sport 1080p updated versions of Metal Gear Solid 2, Metal Gear Solid 3 Subsistence and Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker.

  4. Oh my Jesus!

    I can't believe this? My favourite game series, the one I got into gaming for? Alas no MGS1 or 4, but perhaps if these sell well there would be some more market opportunity seen.

    Hopefully see SC triple pack (with full online capability for Chaos Theory) be released too; However I think it's releasing on the 17th June for PS3.

    What a pleasant surprise... is it the mega big uber surprise?

  5. Meh... I don't like MGS. It just doesn't appeal to me.

  6. Meh... I don't like MGS. It just doesn't appeal to me.

    F*cking queers.

    Best xbox-related news ever. No exaggeration. BIG BOSS, man!

  8. Yes, quite, very queer, pray they come to their senses.

  9. This is pretty much one of the most important day in history. Probably more so than that day some Serb killed a vaguely important Austrian bloke in Sarejevo.

  10. mgs was released on the gamecube under the name the twin snakes basicly the same game but better graphics and gameplay improvments.

  11. You say MGS3 is subsistence, is MGS2 the substance version?

  12. Never played a MGS game before (I know: for shame) but I am very excited about this: great news!
