Hopeless Unbeliever Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 I'm getting a PS3. It was free with my phone. However, games here start with an RRP in the $90-100 region. However however, PS3 games are not region encoded, so I'm thinking about getting some games sent over from your side of the Atlantic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnickers87 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Eighth. That is huge though. Basically, Famitsu is declaring MGS4 as the BEST PS3 game. It has never given out more than one 40/40 per console. When I am able to afford a PS3, MGS is definitely a series I would like to get into. I doubt it will be easy to find the first three when that time comes though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khushrenada Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I picked up that collection. The only problem with it is that I need to buy a 20 dollar memory card adaptor just to play MGS1. Do you think I could beat MGS1 in one day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khushrenada Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I know, but it doesn't work. I thought it might just be my PS3, but I read online that you do need an adaptor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khushrenada Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Of course there are lots of PS1 games that can save onto the ps3, otherwise they wouldn't have the ability to make a ps1 memory card. However for whatever reason I can't save data without a memory card adaptor. And considering the fact that other people have confirmed it I'm sure I need that adaptor to save.

Khushrenada Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 ^ I know, but for whatever reason MGS1 doesn't recognize it. I tried several times and each time it said that I don't have a memory card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lordoftherink Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Actually it should be possible to get the trilogy as they just released it as "Metal Gear Solid: The Essential Collection". It retails for 29.99US on Amazon.com, but doesn't seem to be available on Amazon.ca. It contains Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khushrenada Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 It's not hard to find in Canada. HMV has a video game section now, thats where I got mine. Also I still need an answer to my question. Can I beat MGS1 in one day? Is it do-able? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnickers87 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 IGN AU gives MGS 9.5/10. (in comparison the same reviewer gave Bioshock a 9.5/10 and Mass Effect a 9/10) Presentation 10/10 - Thoughtfully designed menus, detailed information, deep options and the look and feel of a game that knows it's important. Graphics 10/10 - This game hands a cigarette and blindfold to just about everything that has come before it Sound 10/10 - Consistently excellent score, voice acting and environmental sound effects. The final mix is utterly absorbing, cleverly implemented and almost as impressive as the visuals Gameplay 9.5/10 -Evolutionary Metal Gear - and that's a very good thing. There are niggles here and there - it's not perfect - but it's very polished and engrossing. Lasting Appeal 8.5/10 - Metal Gear Online or not, we came for the single-player game. We got just enough to balance out the cutscenes. There is definite replayability to be had, if you're passionate I kind of dislike how he disregards MGOnline almost completely. Because I'm sure if there wasn't Metal Gear Online the Lasting Appeal would be 7.5/10 and they would be complaining how there is no Multiplayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
