Konami's popped out of the long grass with the first proper Metal Gear Solid HD Collection screenshots, covering Metal Gears 2, 3 and Peace Walker.
Announced last month for release in November, the pack spans two whole Xbox 360 game discs and 10 years of Metal Gear history. It contains the vastly improved Subsistence version of Metal Gear Solid 3, with user-controlled camera angles and other new content.
The HD version of MGS2 apparently draws on the expanded Substance edition of Metal Gear Solid 2 to a yet-to-be-divulged extent. More as we get it.

This will give me an excuse to try and get back into MGS. I loved the first one on PS1 to bits and played it quite a few times. Then I tried Twin Snakes on the Gamecube, MGS2 Substance on both the Xbox and PC and kept getting discovered by guards who apparently had X-ray vision.

Snake? Snake?! Snaaaaaaaaake!
My favourite moment in a game ever is probably when the colonel in MGS1 tells you the radio frequency is on the back of the CD case... where is it?!?! Only when you find it, you are truly astounded by the simplicity of the order.

The same thing happens in the Gamecube remake, I did get that far at least.
The bit where you had to put your controller in port two to stop Psycho Mantis reading your inputs is another stand-out moment, along with the fake crash that was slightly spoiled by having "Hideo" in the corner rather than Video.
They played with the fourth wall quite a bit in MGS1 now I think about it. Rocksteady were obviously influenced by it for Arkham Asylum.

3d just for 3ds. Who'd have thought? I hate 3d vision. In games and films only, obviously.
