The latest Metal Gear Solid collection is an excellent introduction to Snake's story, but hardcore fans of the series may find it lacking.
Quick Links Konami's Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 delivers a jam-packed and pristine release of a storied franchise. Players who have wanted to dive into Hideo Kojima's beloved stealth action series have had a tough time doing so. Copyright issues took MGS2 and MGS3 off of digital stores, and the last time the games were sold physically was on Gen 3 systems in 2011. However, MGS:MCV1 provides nearly everything a player needs to get into the series.
The Best Way To Start MGS MGS: MCV1 could have been just a direct port of the MGS PS1 classic and the story mode campaigns from its two PS2 sequels from Konami to make a quick buck. While the games don't seem to have been altered too much from their previous releases in the MGS: HD Collection in 2011, it still feels packed with everything new players need to enjoy the series on modern hardware.
Incredible For Newcomers, But Not Much New For MGS Vets Notably missing from MGS: MCV1 is the GameCube remake, Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes. The Nintendo exclusive updated the PS1 classic by completely redoing the graphics, adding over-the-top action into cutscenes, and MGS2's feature of being able to shoot and aim in first person. Also missing is much of MGS3: Subsistence's additional content.
