The real question is...
Does it include Metal Gear Online 1?!

Does this include Peace Walker? If so, it's a must-have and it's a great collection.
No; there is no Peace Walker HD currently in the works for Vita.
nope

This package tells you what a ripoff the 3DS version was.

If that is being crazy, I don't wanna be sane.

Skipped the PS3 version for this. Hope I made the right choice. Really no excuse for this game not to have great IQ on the PSV.

If my experience with the Vita serves me right, the colours will pop amazingly on the Vita screen. Everything looks more vibrant on it

looks extremely aliased. almost as bad as those Unit 13 screens.
looks great otherwise though. I wonder if the aliasing looks that pronounced on the Vita screen itself?

UC:GA and Unit 13 look like washed out vomit off of the Vita screen. They look fine on it.
I would guess this would be no different.

The colors and contrast do look great on Vita's screen. For sure, screenshots viewed on a desktop browser won't do them justice; however the aliasing is still very much noticeable even when viewed natively on the Vita.

Cannot wait. Purchase justified.
well Metal Gear Solid 2 does run in HD for pc, it's just a matter for all the rest (excluding mgs1) to come on board to the platform.
THIS. when i looked at screens of uncharted and NG sigma...I thought they looked like jaggy handicapped cousins of a PS3 game...but when you see them on Vita its a whole different world. The beautiful orange falling leaves in Ninja Gaiden, and the stunning green foliage of Uncharted. It really is a different experience on the OLED.
Well, at least YOU look convinced :lol

Let's not kid ourselves here, though. MGS2 on PC is a horrible port. Really, I think it's the worst port since Metal Gear on the C64.

Why on earth is this sub-Vita res?
Anyway, will get for MGS2.EXCITE!
Where the hell is the proof on that? I like to see a link.
With all these people ready to defend sub native resolutions on Vita because it still look good on the small screen, and with the trend of most graphically demanding games (and even PS2 ports for gods sake) not rendering at native res, it kind of begs the question: did sony go overboard with the screen resolution?
Things will always look a lot better at native resolusiton, and if the GPU can't handle doing this kind of graphics in that resolution, would it have been better to ship it with a lower res screen (853x480 is fairly common in android devices for example, which I think is closer to the resolution here), would it have saved costs? Or is is it worth it for the games that do manage to render in native res?
You could argue that these are first gen games and it will look better once developers figure out the hardware; but if this generations of consoles is anything to go by, IQ is not what gets better further into the hardware cycle, more like the other way around.

trying to get it to work on modern pc's: yes but it looks better than the vanilla ps2 version and actually looks better than the vita version.

Well, I only have 4 copies of MGS2, so depending on the price I might quintuple dip.

lol seriously ?
its one of the worst ports i have played/
HD versions/Vita/PS2/PS2 Emulator would be better -_-
Vita games with bad IQ look horrible in screenshots. Vita games with great IQ look good in screenshots.

Uncharted screen captures look bad, Uncharted on the Vita through the OLED screen and it's by far the best looking launch title
Pretty much this. Games like Uncharted look terrible in screenshots, but don't look bad on the Vita. OTOH, games like VT4 look great in screenshots and even better on the Vita.
No it's not.

what Vita game is better looking then Uncharted?

That and some modern effects added. I think the 3DS version looks better despite the low resolution. *prepares for shitstorm*
edit: although MGS3 will probably look much better (than the 3DS version) on an actual Vita screen, not blown up screenshots.
From what I've seen the 3DS version runs at ~20 FPS. Even if it looked better in stills (which IMHO it doesn't, the resolution is just too low) it would still be an inferior product.
Wipe Out, Rayman (ok it's cheating), lots of vita games have a way better iq and i find Uncharted jungle background messy and ugly, but that's my opinion.

Have you heard of scale? Wipeout is a great looking game (30FPS) but is just constrained to a smaller environment so image quality can look better. Uncharted isn't graphically perfect but it's still the best looking game on the Vita as of launch.

I'm comparing the actual game on 3DS to the stills from the Vita. Like my edit said though, it probably looks a hell of a lot better on a Vita due to the OLED screen.
Definitely true. Dynamic lighting doesn't show itself in screenshots, and Uncharted has the best I've seen on Vita. Also, the environments are more vibrant, with pretty normal maps and specularity. Wipeout's image quality is cleaner, but Uncharted's overall effect is much more impressive.
I am 100% guilty of this too.
I buy all of them!
It's smoother in-gameplay. The cutscenes for some reason are guilty of this in there though.
I got the PS2 collection, the HD collection [PS3] and TTS. That's enough MGS backlog for now, so I won't be getting this anytime soon (if ever).
When did he say this? Link?

The gameplay was "smooth" 20fps in the demo - did they fix it in retail? Cutscenes were diving below 20.Thoraxes said:
While I agree, I'm already incredibly impressed by the amount of Japanese games on Vita using AA as it is - it's not something they've embraced on 360 or PS3 (let alone any other console).brain_stew said:
Now if only someone could teach some Jpn studios about the existence of mipmapping (ClapHandz especially).
But yea - a PS2 running sub-native AND with AA disabled is just sad, the whole point of these re-releases is supposed to be IQ enhancements (and yea I realize several HD remakes on big-consoles got screwed the same way too -_-).
