The Metal Gear game on Gamecube is ... (1 Viewer)

If this is on par with REmake, I am all over this. IMO MGS was a better game than 2, so it will be a very strong title with updated graphics and hopefully soilder ai.

This seems to be a very shallow method of building up the gc library with supposed top games that have appeared on the other systems. I hope this isn't a trend. Maybe the animal crossing team will be put in charge of a future GTA port.

Ouch.

Actually, MGS3 was just announced as to-be-shown at E3.

I think this is actually MGS and MGS2 (I'm talking about the GCN one). It'll probably be like Substance with MGS added in.

And while I would like to see them remake the original NES game, I'm not sure that's much better than remaking MGS. Maybe they're changing the game up, making a different story, having it lead into MGS2 more, who knows.

Well if this is anything like Resident Evil Remake (which was a completely new experience versus the original), count me in! I cannot wait to see how incredible this is going to look and see all the new additions Nintendo will add!

Anyone think they will release "The Twin Snakes" on the PS2 or X-Box???

I hope the Box gets it...

I hope the Box gets it...

Well, it won't.

The remake's being developed by Silicon Knights and SK is a second-party developer for the Cube so there's absolutely no chance it's going to be going anywhere else.

Marc,
Much of the freezing in Eternal Darkness (which I'm sure you know from playing it?) is the game screwing with the player's head. Many times I thought my game was freezing when I ran out of sanity, but it was the game itself doing it in order to (IMO) blur the line between the player and the character on screen at the time. This is an amazing game and a truly ADULT game in the best sense of the word--huge and scary--but not in a merely gory way.

I don't know-I never played the original MGS, so I'm looking forward to this.

Agreed. I hate the "Not another game *I* played on the NES/SNES/Genesis/whatever console years ago" attitude. Not all of us have played the original titles, and look forward to the advancements in graphics and (most likely) gameplay that will result.

Personally, I think MGS is a little too recent to be remaking (1997 wasn't THAT long ago) but it will probably come out good, and I'm intrigued by it nonetheless.

Having owned the original MGS on the PlayStation, I'm looking forward to the revamped version for the Gamecube. IGN compared a number of screenshots between the PS version and the GC's in this article. It appears that Silicon Knights are instituting enough changes (I prefer enhancements) to create a unique gaming experience, one that bears almost no resemblance to the original. IMO, Capcom accomplished this with the RE remake, and Konami's on their way with MGS:TTS.

Morgan, I think MGS actually came out in November or December of 98, so it's even more recent
Edit-IGN's review is dated 10/21/98 so I guess it came out a bit earlier than I remember.
