The Unforgettable Metal Gear Solid Collection Games: A Must-Have for Gaming Enthusiasts!
Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol 1, though highly anticipated, has raised concerns among fans due to potential drawbacks that could disappoint them upon its release
Highlights
There are a few potential drawbacks to consider in Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1, which could potentially impact players' enjoyment. These include the absence of keyboard and mouse controls, as well as Steam displaying confusing game titles.
The Nintendo Switch version of the collection is limited to 30 frames per second at a resolution of 720p, which may disappoint players hoping for improved performance.
Meanwhile, the other versions will feature a resolution of 720p and a framerate of 60 fps.
As the release of Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1 draws near, it has become evident that there are certain potential drawbacks that may hinder the enjoyment of some players of this acclaimed stealth game collection. It has been discovered that the original Metal Gear Solid games included in the collection will not offer keyboard and mouse controls, as indicated on the Steam pages for these games. This has raised concerns among fans regarding the level of effort put into these re-releases.
However, the absence of keyboard and mouse controls is not the sole issue faced by PC users. One fan has observed that the titles of the Metal Gear Solid Master Collection games on Steam make it challenging for users to identify which game they are launching. Fortunately, this is merely a minor inconvenience that can be resolved by players familiarizing themselves with the game icons.
Alex Olney from Nintendo Life recently shared some concerns about the Nintendo Switch version of Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1 after getting hands-on with it. One notable issue highlighted was the games' limitation to 30 frames per second and a 720p resolution when played on the Switch, despite being based on the PS3 era Metal Gear Solid HD Collection. Konami, the game's developer, justified this by stating that the Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1 aims to achieve a similar resolution and frame rate to the original Metal Gear Solid HD Collection on other platforms, which boasts 60 frames per second at 720p.
While the news may disappoint fans eagerly awaiting the Switch release, Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1 offers a decent amount of bonus content to compensate for its comparatively poor performance on Nintendo's system. Some may argue that a stable frame rate is more important than a higher but inconsistent one, but the revelation is still disheartening.
According to a leak that IGN deemed "accurate," Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 2 will include Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, and Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain. This development is potentially exciting; however, these games are much more graphically demanding than those in Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1. It will be intriguing to see how they fare in terms of performance.
Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1 launches October 24 on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, and Xbox Series X/S.
