Three Metal Gear Solid Titles In the Works 17
Konami's press conference had lots of good news for the Metal Gear Solid fan, reports Gamespot. Three new MGS titles are currently in the works for this and the next generation of consoles. Metal Gear Solid 4 will see the light on Sony's next console, the Playstation 3. Metal Gear Acid 2 is already in development for the PSP, and in the spirit of many of the past MGS titles, Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence will offer a remix of the original Snake Eater experience. From the article: "...this content will likely appeal to many who have already played Snake Eater. Foremost, it will feature online multiplayer action, with Kojima saying his team was aiming for a maximum of eight players. The online portion will sport two modes: 'Snake vs. Enemies,' where multiple players hunt down one opponent and 'Team Battle' with multiple players fighting cooperatively."

I've been sitting playing it for the last few weeks on my psp and think its great.
I most definantly look forward to picking up a sequal asthere just arn't that many tactical board game/combat cards out (plenty of just combat card style).
Its was just a breath of fresh air to have something with a slightly more origional slant than your yug-i-ohs or Magic-the gatherings.
thankfully i never picked up metal gear 3 yet as i had an in

Metal Gear Solid is characterized by two poorly animated heads babbling at each other for hours on end.

The games are even more interesting if you're only familar with the NES Metal Gear games. The first Metal Gear(MSX) differs a lot from the NES(the biggest difference being that the NES version doesn't have Metal Gear in it!). Also there was a psuedo-squel for the NES called Snake's Revenge [wikipedia.org], but it doesn't hold a candle to the MSX Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake. In the game, you'll see where a lot of elements of MGS series came from. And if you're too impatient to wait for this release try downloading a MSX emulator [zophar.net] and the old ROMS(you're on your own for that one for that link but they shouldn't be too hard to find).
You know what I'm waiting for? (Score:2)

There are over 72 million PS2s, as of last November, probably closer to 75 million or more now. All come with standard hardware, a controller, and DVD-ROM.
Sure, there were more PCs sold, but how many were gaming capable, and how many were intended for entertainment purposes?
So for all intents and purposes, if you want to play a bunch of Metal Gear games, buy a PS2 ($150) and MGS3 Subsistence (you get MGS3 + bonus games if I've read correctly) for $50.
Or you can get MGS1 for $10 and MGS2 for $15 now.
