You click in the left stick to lower your gun on the 360 version.
Which is better than the stupid pressure sensitive crap

You don't need to put that in tags. Pressure sensitive buttons are the worst idea Kojima ever had. Clicking the left stick actually sounds good.
How do you hold up with an assault rifle without firing it?
I know, I know. I simply expected the big amount of Switch-comments, that's all. It's amusing, every time.
But this is the first port of a MGS game in the post-Kojima era, right? So, yeah, it's possible, indeed.

Will probably run at a higher resolution but have horrible frame pacing.

The fuck. This is literally out of nowhere. Doubt it means much for a PC version though. Since if I recall the shield stuff is basically payed for by Nvidia if not ported by them as well.

Jesus Christ.
This is the worst kind of "exclusive". On dead hardware none the less.

huh, okay.
It's weird though when the camera pans down and its nothing there
It's inconsistent for whatever reason I've seen it there on my last replay and one of my initial playthroughs it wasn't there. I'm not sure what the reasoning is.

It took a bit to get used to that on the 360 after having the pressure buttons on the PS2, but felt it was more precise once I got the hang of the motion.

I keep seeing threads about Nvidia Shield which reminds me it does have a few games I'm interested in, and I love handheld gaming. Maybe I should look into one.
Not for MGS2 though. Quite happy with my Vita version of that.

There might be. I'm going through all the "Only on Shield" games and they all have a PC port.

It's nice they kept the "A Hideo Kojima Game" part in.

Yep. Also, Metal Gear Survive is first playable to the public this week and Gamescom was when they announced the game.
Yeah, it's bizarre. I didn't know NVidia was still shopping for Shield ports and this quite the strange choice.
But again, NVidia already has a relationship with Konami since the Shield got a Metal Gear Rising port.

Isnt the switch basically a nvdia shield?

My Shield TV is basically my YT/emulator box. So I might pick this up if it's $10.

Similar to Shield TV with twice the ram. But I don't think it really needs a proof of concept release when it already runs on Vita.
Oh interesting. Has it only been a year? felt longer.
Yes, but that doesn't guarantees a port. I can't think of any of the Shield ports getting a Switch port so far, like RE5 and MGR.
I believe in Konami. They could be the first company to make an actual Shield exclusive.

They might release the HD version on Steam after they've juiced up the Shield sales?

They would probably go up at the same time.
That's huge. Cause the PC version from the 2000s was bad and wouldn't reflect the game as it should today. Wonder if we will eventually see the entire HD collection (or Legacy Collection) make its way to the PC. Preserve preserve preserve. Especially MGS1 needs a PC update. The OG version doesn't not run as intended on modern PCs the last time I checked
Could this be a sign that those games are likely to come to other platforms? (non-specific platform port begging isnt port begging is it?)
Could someone enlighten me, is this a simple thing to port? Have they put actual time and money into this rather than any of the other big platforms? Not complaining at all, just again working out if its a sign of it coming to a platform I own for example.

It depends but possible. Every "Only on Shield" game has at least a PC port of some kind. Since making a android based version off an original PC version is usually the easiest way to go about things. However as said above if there's any company that would literally port or allow a port for MGS2 to really be only on shield and nothing else it's Konami.
Regardless if MGS HD Collection were to hit PC. It would be a good sign about it perhaps coming to PS4/XB1/Switch

I guess Revegeance did good enough for either nVidia/Konami to justify this.
So crazy to see Ps3/Xbox 360 games ported to Android

I seriously doubt any game on the Shield TV sold beyond five figures, so if Konami is going to use these numbers as some sort of test we're fucked.
Nope. These games are Tetra X1 only, they won't even boot on the Tetra K1 tablet.

They have no reason to do that. They did the opposite with Metal Gear Rising. As anti-consumer as the company has been, they have no reason to intentionally make decisions that actually hemorrhage money. I'd expect a PC/PS4/XB1 release of the game too, and wouldn't be surprised if we end up seeing the same thing for MGS 3 HD.
