A real shame that Konami opted for this route. While it’s great news for Metal Gear fans, it turns out that the re-releases are the original PC versions and not the updated remasters of the last-gen HD Collection. We suspect today’s releases will make their way onto Steam sooner or later. The Castlevania & Contra collection and MSX classic Metal Gear on the other hand comes in at an even cheaper $5.99. Priced at a very low $9.99, it’s a no-brainer for any Hideo Kojima fan. Available exclusively on GOG for PC, gamers can experience the brilliant beginnings of the Metal Gear Solid franchise. Join Solid Snake, Simon Belmont, and other heroes on the quest to save mankind, while having many hours of fun in the process! What many might not know, those two titles did launch for PC back in the day but being pure physical releases, it became very difficult to own and play them.Īfter restoring classics like Blade Runner and Diablo, we bring you some of the best KONAMI classics in versions that are fully playable on modern computers. It’s a huge occasion since MGS 1&2 are readily available digitally for the first time. Just as the leak promised, three MGS titles and a collection of NES & SNES Castlevania & Contra are now available on the PC platform. But we didn’t think it would be that fast. When Metal Gear, Metal Gear Solid, and Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance ratings leaked a couple of days ago, we suspected that a timely release of the classic titles would happen on PC. Metal Gear Solid and Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance are now available after decades. It’s nice that we can easily play both games on PC again, but whether or not that simple luxury is worth $9.99 is certainly debatable.Oh boy, after recent leaks Konami has indeed brought over three classic MGS titles alongside a retro Castlevania & Contra collection to the PC. It should be noted that the original PC ports of these titles did feature some minor alterations and content updates (especially Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance, which featured quite a bit of new content in comparison to its PS2 predecessor) but it’s a little disappointing that these ports are little more than just that. While these editions have been updated to easily run on modern PCs, it doesn’t appear that they’ve been upgraded in any other substantial ways. Based on early impressions, it seems that these versions of the games uploaded to GOG are basically the same PC ports that were released for the platform in the early 2000s. Of course, some fans will recall that Metal Gear Solid and Metal Gear Solid 2 did previously appear on PC. Following a leak by The Taiwan Digital Game Rating Committee, GOG has confirmed that Metal Gear, Metal Gear Solid, Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance, and a Konami collection of classic Contra and Castlevania games are now available via their store.
