Wow, maybe I'm missing it but they aren't including the AC!D games in any of this.

It does... They are only presenting PS products (i.e. PSP, PS2, PSOne).
Xbox version of MGS and GC version of MGS is missing...
Why? Because GC and Xbox are dead, while PS2/PSP are still alive and kicking..
Also, i really hope they bring the entire collection (6900 Yen) to US... I would be the first to get it, i swear.

I need to go out and buy a used copy of MGS2. I'll catch flack for this but I enjoyed it more than MGS3. That is by no mean's an insult to Snake Eater, I just liked MGS2 more.

I sooo want to get my hands on both the game collection & the soundtrack collection.
Of all of the Metal Gear soundtracks that I own, I've been definitely listening to the Red Disc and the Ac!d soundtracks more than the others.

Can anyone break down the events of the Ac!d games? Did anything major happen in them?

spoilers
this is if i remember correctly:
in the first MGA, Snake "loses his memory" and after he retires from being America's best secret agent ever or whatever, he finds that he actually set up a huge incident involving children being used as experiments that become monsters or something like that. Kind of ****ed up, but alludes itself as a way that Solid Snake could end up after he retires for good from being a good guy. He attempts to remedy it even though he's the one that set everything up. Kind of Total Recall-ish in that aspect.
in the 2nd one, it is pretty independent of the first MGA, but makes some allusions to it in that Solid Snake doesn't know who he is or that he was an elite soldier for America. It turns out that the Snake in MGA2 is actually a clone of the original Solid Snake and that he killed a lot of people. I think. It might be possible for both of the MGAs to exist in the same universe, but its kind of impossible imo if you go into the details of both.
They're both more side-stories than anything

Insane For Sony
This is nice, but you know what would be even nicer than this?
If Konami + Sony would release first MGS downloadable on PSN for PS3 and PSP. I already have all these games on discs, and even though we can play it on PSP using OE hack, there's no way to continue after the point you're supposed to insert 2nd disc.

Uh, guys? Check out the version of the MGS4 E3 trailer on that site. The framerate is now silky smooth.

Thanks. I sold my PSP a long time ago, but I wish I got to play these two games before I did. If they ever released a Metal Gear Ac!d Collection for some other console I'd buy it, but it'll never happen.

It's funny that they just actively advertise the years that these games take place now... I thought the dates of the MGS games were always kind of a vague "near future" setting for a long time there, until MG Saga vol. 1 straight up told us, and now this website.....
Shadow Moses was two years ago (2005), and the Tanker Incident is this year (2007). I say invest all your money in Hallibrton, because they are going to get a Big Shell megacontract soon

iirc, the characters in the game never mention the actual year but they say something like '2 years ago.' it is mentioned in text, though.

I'm almost the same way. MGS is what makes me a console gamer, specifically. MGS and Sony first party anyway.jtardiou said:

Yeah it is. All the drops are gone, most obvious being when Otacon gets off the Black-hawk and when the MGear comes crashing through the wall.buckfutter said:

Word.
Infact, this game WILL make me put ~1600$ (PS3 and TV) right on the counter, and even though I think that's insane, I feel that it's also very much justified.
I need my damn closure.
