One fan completely remade the intro from the original game using Unreal Engine 4? The result?
Nothing really to see here
but I just saw this, a video that has been put together recreating the opening sequence from Metal Gear Solid on the PlayStation. It doesn't go as far as the gameplay, it's literally a recreation of the opening cinematic.
This is one of my fav games of all time. I remember reading about it in magazines in the years leading to it's launch. I used to imagine what the game would be like
and then one day it was on a PlayStation magazine demo disc
I must have played that 100s of times
Originally I had planned to get it on PC as I didn't have a PlayStation at the time, then the PC version got cancelled... I obviously ended up diverting my N64 savings to a PlayStation fund instead
The Twin Snakes remake kind of filled the empty void left after the original, but it was never as good in my eyes. I could get past the OTT cinematics that they added, but adding the mechanics from MGS2 without balancing the original games level design for those new mechanics ending up breaking it by making it far too easy.
I'm one of those people who despise remakes, but I would totally love either a reimagined game balanced for new gameplay elements or a
faithful recreation of the original to support modern day screen resolutions.
