okay, so i just saw the new metal gear trailer...

i think i want to get into this franchise. where's the best place to start? release chronological? seeing as MGS is listed at compatible for vita and the MGS HD collection is too is that a good plan? Should i go for the ps3 HD collection instead? Where do the psp games fit in?

I'm going release order myself, and nen-suer forgot to mention Metal Gear 1 and 2. They are the first two games and if you don't play them, you might get lost when you start with MGS1. If you get the HD collection, you can find them under Snake Eater. Also I actually heard portable ops does have some importance to the story but it's up to you. Maybe if you really get into MGS, then you might want to check it out. Oh, and I'm not sure if Metal Gear 1 and 2 are included on the Vita version but I know it's on the ps3 version.

I can confirm for you guys that they're included. They're in the main menu of MGS3. If you could get the PS3 version of the collection I would recommend that over the Vita version, though. It's cheaper and comes with Peace Walker.


thanks to everyone replying to me!

so is there any reason other than price to go for the ps3 version of the HD collection?  i know getting it for vita (+peacewalker) will cost more but to be honest, money isn't exactly a big deal for me.  i was thinking that with the smaller screen maybe they'll look at bit better on vita.  that and my ps3 backlog is huge while my vita is not.  are controls gimped at all on vita?   either way i'm going to go download MGS1 now.

oh, and do i really need to play MG 1 and 2 first?  i actually started MG waaay back in the day when it was new.  there was a tank i couldn't get past and i eventually gave up.  i don't remember there being much story beyond the parachuting in bit at the very very beginning.

Metal Gear is a lot better in the collection since it's a port of the MSX (Original) version and not the NES (With that parachuting scene).  Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake was never released on NES so this is the only way to play it in English (As in, you need Subsistence).  As far as the port goes, they're identical to the PS2 version  with the added bonus of slow downs.  PS3 version actually employs anti-aliasing and Snake Eater's frame rate is closer to 60fps (Original was 30).  I do suggest playing MGS 1, it's a very nostalgic game and it comes with a few memes.

Here ya go.  This is what a real man's Vita looks like:

I'll probably replace Tomb Raider Legend with FInal Fantasy Vii (low on space at the moment) and I'm hoping I can get Crash Bandicoot 1-3 and Crash Team Racing on the system since copying from the PS3 didn't work with those titles.  Aside from that, I'm satisfied.  Still a few PSP titles that won't work (Mod Nation, Syphon Filter) and I had to delete some stuff to save space (Crash Tag Team Racing, etc) but this is about as good as it's going to get with just 32GB to work with.

And here's the first two Vita screens if anybody wants 'em.  I copied them from youtube.  You can just look up "wallpapers" on youtube for some great wallpapers and use the Vita's screen grab feature (home button + Start button) to get a great pic of anything you see!

here's the video I did the capture from.  right at the end--http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fEX9-LR9tg

Well, bank accounts are overrated.  I'm already eyeballing Unit 13 and I'll definitely be grabbing Ass Creed Liberation and Call of Duty on day 1.  Going to get that RPG with the awesome graphics (can't remember the name! Lol!), too.  Gotta support the good games when they come out!
