METAL GEAR SOLID

The character limit on here is brutal. I'll try and get all my points across. If you've never played MGS1 before, don't play this first. Do yourself that favor. This is the PC version from 2000 with some fixes, but it is still pretty bad. The Good: FMVs work (but don't scale up with resolution). You can set your resolution and aspect ratio. You can enable MSAA & Anisotropic Filtering. The game actually saves your input bindings. You can play a large part of the game in First Person if you want. All your PC speedrunning tricks still work. The Bad: The controls still suck royally (google mgs1_faq diagonal movements). The black bar at the bottom is still there. Music still loops improperly. All audio is still lower quality. The game still crashes. If you're a speedrunner, this is the game for you. If you're curious about playing in First Person (and don't have the Integral Playstation version), it's worth toying with. My personally recommended settings: 640x480 resolution and in Software mode. I know that sounds ridiculous, but let me explain. The FMVs don't scale up with higher resolutions. They show up tiny in the center of the screen in any resolution higher than 480p ( https://youtu.be/zGPOYW-VzBE ). When it comes to playing in Software, this is more subjective. The textures in Metal Gear Solid were never intended to be filtered. When you filter the textures, every surface in the game suddenly looks blurry and ugly. If you don't mind that, then it's fine. For me, it just isn't Metal Gear Solid with texture filtering. Oh, and my Xbox One triggers work fine. They're just reversed. Bind your Weapon item button to your left trigger and Inventory button to your right trigger. Then, ingame, they will be in their correct locations. This is a holdover from the original PC port and is the same for any controller with analog triggers.

This game is definitely: a Master Piece. From the beginning to the end, the ost, the characters, the map EVERYthing is so freaking good! Thanks Konami and GOG!

I love Metal Gear Solid and I doubt you need me to tell you how good it is, so instead I'll just say this is a really solid port. It worked straight away and I was even able to use my PS4 controller with it no problem. The only issue I've had so far is some minor lag whenever a character is using stealth camoflage but that oesn't happen too often anyway.

I want to review this game better but I don't know how ._. but overall; gr8 game m8!

Good Port better then the Master Collection
