Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1 - PS5

Product Information

I'm glad to say this blur effect is at least removed for the Raiden section later on though, and in MGS3. It’s a credit limit that’s sits alongside your PayPal account which you can use for your online purchases.

So I believe this has MGS 1-3, the MSX metal gears, the two NES ones, but I also wanted to ask if it has the VR missions game? On the other hand, Nintendo Switch leaves all these edges entirely raw without any AA whatsoever, creating heavy visual noise and flickering, especially in motion. On the plus side first, MGS2 and MGS3 at least run at 60fps on PS5 and Series X without much issue, though cutscenes are designed to run at a mix of 60, 30 and 15fps at points in MGS2. Meanwhile the Playstation 2 duo - MGS2 and 3 - use code from the 2011 Bluepoint HD Collection versions for Xbox 360 and PS3. It's a flourish that stays on modern consoles, but as far as the core gameplay goes, both games run at 60fps.We get the PS1 classic MGS, with the VR missions pack included, we get MGS2: Sons of Liberty and MGS3: Snake Eater, with enhancements from the later Substance and Subsistence versions.

These sub-30fps drops in MGS2 stand at odds with the Nvidia Shield version of the game, from which the Switch version is seemingly derived. Like if they were to do a remake collection of uncharted 1-3 would be separated like mgs and ff pixel remaster.

Yes, the quality of the originals was always going to be there, but surely the quality of the package as a remaster should have more weight in the verdict. Every version has problems, but some - most notably Switch - are much worse off in terms of both visuals and frame-rate. As such, many of the quirks of the original PS1 game are preserved: a base resolution of 320x240, and PS1's signature affine texture warping that causes texture maps to 'wobble' as you move the camera. I can't fault the implementation and honestly prefer it this way to using a clunky anniversary interface that is an after thought. Even a native 1080p or 4K version of the game would have been a hugely welcome extra, and looking at PS1 emulators on PC like Duckstation, forcing higher resolutions allows for surprisingly good results.

Overall, across both PS2-era games, PS5 does ends up with the best image quality by a solid margin, especially in MGS3 where the camera is fully controllable to reveal the filtering advantage. So not sure if I've missed something here, but we've got a couple of PS3 games running natively now on PS5?Each main title in the line-up will also include an exclusive digital Screenplay Book and Master Book that details the story and characters in that game. While it's great we have both PAL and NTSC versions available for the completist, it's odd that these 60Hz NTSC US and Japanese releases involve an extra download.
