Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I'm a long time Metal Gear fan. I've played every single title, and I've loved every single one. Chances are, if you find yourself here, you are probably a Metal Gear fan, and don't need to be told anything about the superb story. Metal Gear Solid is one of the most interesting and engrossing collection of games spanning across many generations. Disc Two of this collection is the HD Collection (MGS 2, MGS 3, and Peace Walker), plus the two Digital Graphic Novels in movie form. This marks the first time that the Digital Graphic Novels are released in the States. Once you input the disc into your PS3, you will find the Digital Graphic Novels under the videos section of the XMB. This, for me, is worth the price of admission alone. I own a physical copy of the graphic novels, but it's so much better to see them in action with full voice overs. Disc One is Metal Gear Solid IV. No frills, no extras. The voucher was not working earlier today, but this was a mess up on Sony's part. The scheduled PlayStation Store update came much later than usual. The voucher nets you Metal Gear Solid, and Metal Gear Solid: VR Missions. This also marks the debut of the VR Missions on the PS3 and PSN. I'm not sure if it'll be sold as a stand-alone, but it might happen. The 100 page art book is the size of a blu-ray case. It has a neat collection of promotional materials for all games of the Metal Gear Solid series. It's not hardcover, but it does have a neat embossed cover. All in all it's pretty great. If you're not all that interested in the Digital Graphic Novels, then you could pass this collection up. Essentially, what you are getting here is a repackaged HD Collection, and a repackaged Metal Gear Solid IV. It's really awesome to have almost every single game in one box, but I can understand why some people would not be eager to double-triple, or maybe even quadruple dip. I, for one, am very happy with my purchase. 50 bucks is cheap for 8 games and 2 Digital Graphic Novels. The entire list of games is as follows: Metal Gear (Accessed through the Metal Gear Solid 3 menu) Metal Gear 2 (Accessed through the Metal Gear Solid 3 menu) Metal Gear Solid (Digital only) Metal Gear Solid: VR Missions (Digital Only) Metal Gear Solid 2: HD Edition Metal Gear Solid 3: HD Edition Metal Gear Solid 4 Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker as well as: Metal Gear Solid: Bande Dessinee (Digital Graphic Novel) Metal Gear Solid 2: Bande Dessinee (Digital Graphic Novel)
