Gamers will have to wait a bit longer for these HD remakes.
Konami has confirmed that the Silent Hill HD Collection has been delayed to March 6, 2012 after retailers Amazon, GameFly, and GameStop changed the launch dates on their websites.
Snake will reveal himself on the 3DS in March of 2012.
The port of Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater to the Nintendo 3DS was originally set to be released this December. Then it was announced at the Tokyo Game Show 2011 that it had been delayed to "early 2012." That's an ambiguous term, but now we have a actual release date.
Hideo Kojima has revealed his plans for the fifth installment in the series.
In the newest issue of Official PlayStation Magazine UK, Hideo Kojima revealed his plans for Metal Gear Solid 5. Konami has not confirmed the development of the game but I doubt they won't want to move forward with a sequel to one of the biggest franchises in video games.
Metal Gear Solid 2, Metal Gear Solid 3 and Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker, all in HD, all in one collection.
Available now for the Nintendo 3DS.
Transfarring also now coming to America despite earlier reports.
Konami announced today that Metal Gear Solid HD Collection will also be released in a limited edition for both the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360. The limited edition of the game will include a 248 page artbook and specialized packaging created by Yoji Shinkawa, the series' lead artist.
“OK” just doesn't cut it this time.
No More Heroes looked like an intriguing game when it came out on the Wii, but after playing it I wasn't too impressed. You play as the badass Travis Touchdown and your simple goal is to kill everyone in your way until you are number one. The gameplay was interesting and the story and characters were entertaining, but these just sugarcoated a fundamentally flawed game. Upon hearing about this remake, subtitled Heroes Paradise, I hoped that it would all be smoothed over. Again I walked away disappointed.
Yes... you’re reading that headline correctly.
To much surprise, tucked in the middle of Konami’s Pre-E3 Conference video was the reveal of the “Metal Gear Solid HD Collection.” The package will feature MGS 2, MGS 3: Snake Eater and MGS: Peace Walker. Oddly enough, Metal Gear Solid wasn’t included, so Twin Snakes might be the most “HD” experience for players. Leaving that fact aside, the collection will not only be available for the PS3, but the 360 as well and will support 1080p graphics. Don’t worry though MGS purists; PS3 looks to be the system to own it on. The PS3 will get an exclusive feature, labeled “Transfarring,” which allows players to stop a game in progress, transfer their Peace Walker game file to a PSP, and continue where they left off.
Maybe making a sequel to an obscure game from the '80s wasn’t a great idea?
Rush’N Attack: Ex Patriot is the latest in a string of updates/sequels of old Arcade/NES games, some of which have been phenomenal, like Bionic Commando: Rearmed. Unfortunately for Konami, that same success isn’t manifesting in their sequel to Rush’N Attack. This is thanks in large part to some uninspired levels, finicky jump mechanics, and one-dimensional gameplay. The gameplay does occasionally give off a Metroid vibe, but it’s clear the developers didn’t know how to really capitalize on that concept, resulting in a ho-hum experience.
Will this lead to Bomberman-Metal Gear crossovers in the future?
Andriasang has translated a Japanese press release announcing that Konami will be completely buying up Hudsonsoft. Previously, Konami owned over 50% of Hudson. This transaction means that Konami will own Hudsonsoft in its entirety. While matters like company name changes and merging business operations are still being worked out, Konami has decided to replace Hudson CEO Michihiro Ishizuka with Konami Digital Entertainment's Kazuhiko Uehara.
