Holy shit, finally! Peace Walker was BC so long ago it seems. Any enhancements like other BC titles? If so, we are playing the definitive version of a 17-year old game in 2018, lol.

MGS3 is still my favorite MGS of all time. Don't know if I want to quadriple dip or not because I have way, way too much games to play and they just keep piling on. First world problems, I know...

Oh snap, pretty huge. Might finally play through the whole series again starting this way

Does anyone know how they mapped the pressure-sensitive face button stuff?

Man, I'd grab that in a heartbeat if they announced a discount to coincide with BC. I keep the MGS collection on my Vita but I'd love to play it on my TV.

About time. It'll probably fix up some of the frame rate dips both games had on PS3 and 360.

Unfortunately I don't have an Xbox One. PS3 is practically a Metal Gear machine with my setup

I just started playing MGS1 for the first ever recently too! I think I bought these forever ago, can't wait to dive into them whenever I complete the first game

I'm dangerously close to double-dipping on digital for this. What's wrong with me.

This and the ZoE Collection in the same month (on top of Peacewalker not too long before that) are excellent, and I wouldn't have expected it from Konami.

Fuck yeah! I just bought an X hoping that this would happen, awesome news!
On another note, just bought Red Dead and tried it on the X and holy shit the upgrade is HUGE! Is there any other game that is backwards compatible that has that much of an improvement?

Well that's rad! Safe to say this is probably the new definitive way to play these officially? At least on One X certainly
