| celador said: So I am interested in getting into Metal Gear following V's awesome reviews (I know it is the worst time to get into it considering it is basically over now). IS the HD collection on PS3 with 2,3 and Peace Walker worth getting? I don't know how well they hold up. And then I could get 4 as well. Do you think it is worth it? I assume you miss a lot from the story if you don't know what happened in the other games. |
The Legacy Collection comes with every game listed below minus Ground Zeros/TPP. Also if you dont want to play the 8-bit games, MGS1 has a recap in the menus. (The story IS canon and shouldn't be ignored)
