You read that right, Hideo Kojima’s movies with gameplay bits tacked on are coming to Microsoft’s console, marking their non-Sony platform debut. Well at least for Metal Gear Solid 2, 3 and Peace Walker, which are the only ones confirmed. There’s no word on the first game in the series or whether either game will come in the re-released Substance and Subsistence versions.

Zone of the Enders and the Silent Hill games are also heading to the Xbox 360 and the PS3, with the PS3 version able to synchronize portable and home console saves (presumably for Peace Walker). The new releases will bring along HD assets, achievements and a slew of other improvements and features. There’s no word on a release date yet, but since most of us have already played through most of these and Konami is aiming mostly at the nostalgia dollarm we don’t mind a bit of a wait.

This is a move that will surely anger Playstation users, as the Metal Gear Solid brand has been a Playstation exclusive. Regardless of the 6-7 year gap since original launch, this will anger users of Sony's console, but finally bring joy to avid gamers using Microsoft's Xbox 360.

Should we be expecting a surge in old PS2 and PS1 game HD re-releases? Maybe so. The nostalgia of years past will finally return to gamers in HD glory, which is more than enough to convince game studios to re-release their old games again in high definition.

I would love to be able to play them on my PS3.

Shame they are not being re-made for the PS3.

My mistake I understood MGS was only being re-made for 360. Thanks for the clarification.

It lives, my 360 is back
That article fails. They talk about non-Sony debuts but MGS1 was released on PC then remade for Gamecube (which seems to be the only one they knew about). MGS2 was released on Xbox 1 (Substance version), and MGS3 may be coming out on 3DS. I don't see a reason for fans to complain as we still get MGS4 (and it's online component).

I do expect the PS3 versions to get more rewards to make up for fans who already have those versions (like me, who owns them all), but if it gets MGS1-3 on PS3 in HD, then I say let 360 gamers throw in a bit of extra cash Konami's way to make up for the development costs.

My point is still valid. No one is being angered. And you are wrong. The series started as a MSX game in 1987, then was remade for the NES, and eventually PlayStation got it's first MGS game in 1998. The sequel was then released sometime in 2001 IIRC with a remake being released on XBox, PS2, and PC in like 2002.
Only one game was exclusive to PS, which means that the "exclusivity" of MGS on PS only lasted roughly 2 years (Because MGS1 was remade and released to PC). The console "exclusivity" lasted roughly 4 years.
PS lost "exclusivity" as soon as other console became available.


Still an exclusive =D

Problem rule #16?
I love this... I have 2 copys of MGS2 and 3 of mgs 3 on ps2 already but I would love to see how they look with improved quality and see MGS3 in 60fps (always slowed down in the swamp areas...)
