That's 3 MGS games on android/shieldtv. Really wonder what's going on with Konami. Why not release it on more successful platforms like pc/X1/ps4/switch.

I'd assume Nvidia paid for the development of all these ports, or at least this one. As far as I'm aware Konami doesn't make games anymore unless they have mictotransactions and shit

Is this just a straight port from the ps3 versions?

if companies want to Re-release their games since they are too lazy to make new ones, at least Remake them, even if it was just a visuals upgrade like Crash

I wonder if the shield will get the same games as the switch as its sharing the same hardware.

They did indeed.
It's one way to get third party support.

Probably Vita ports since those were rebuilt for the system.

It's the superior game. *raises flame shield*

Seriously though, love all the mainline MGS games... would love to see them come to Steam. Given the current state of Konami, I won't hold my breath.

I doubt this will be the case. All of these games are bring developed and ported by nvidia lightspeed studios. I do love my nvidia shield TV I have to say. It's easily been one of the best gadgets I've purchased in my life and the support from Nvidia has been first rate.

The costs of porting MGS2 covered some of the costs of MGS3 being ported? Maybe there is some patent software in MGS2 ?

The Crash remake involved a lot more work than you make it look like.

Seeing this thread reminded me of finally purchasing the HD collection for the 360, fortunately it doesn't include Peace-Walker, so that's good...these 2 games are MILES better than MGS5....I don't give a dam about the open-world, more so if it is as barren as it was in MGS5...

I thought MGS5 was awesome for what it was.

I think he was going for something that would change the genre but ran out of time and money and Konami's patience.

I loved it and played through it twice.

MGS3 will always be my favorite but not looking forward to going through it from the beginning again and re-learning all the boss tricks.

Waiting to see what it looks like on the Sheild.

I saw footage of both. MGS2 Had weird frame drops in the tanker hallways sometimes and MGS3 was around 40 fps most of the time outside.

Isn't the main game just big levels not necessarily open world? It doesn't play like GTA or anything. You skip ahead to different locales and shit

How was the game speed? Did it turn to slow motion when dropping to ~40 like it does on PS360? If the game speed remains unaffected that would make it a superior version.
