An MGS1 remake that is Gamecube exlusive?!
KOJIMA!!!
In my opinion the Twin Snakes was not a very good take on the original.
It's like with the first 3 games, they make another version of the original games, that while having graphics misses many vital gameplay and cinematic things.
For the NES Metal Gears, they just can't compare to the MSG games. The MSX games seemed to do everything so much better.
For Twin Snakes you could argue the graphics and gameplay are better (even though the models don't look anywhere near as good as they do on PS2). But I don't think you could ever say that about the cinematics… ever. Snake does not use swords, they aren't his style, and he isn't a ninja! Not even close!
It would have required a remake, not a remaster. An remaking a game like MGS1 would take a lot of time and money that they probably wouldn't see again until MGSV is out.
Peace Walker would be easier for them to port, and people were probably irritated that the most recent game, with such a major influence on the series' plot was not available for people with consoles (MGS1 is), so by making an HD version of PW, that would mean so much more to them.
EDIT: BTW, Darkstar Twin Snakes was NOT made by Kojima and his team… explains why it missed the mark… the first 3 MG games were always remade by another team onto a Nintendo console… too bad you can never find a Nintendo version and say it IS better.
Oh, so it's a remake of the first MG, not MGS.
Alright, but I still want MGS1 HD with SoL models… not that hard (I think).
Besides, I can easily put MGS3 in and play the 2 MG games there.

Its a remake of MGS.
They remade MG and MG2 a lot earlier for NES. Twin Snakes is indeed a remake of MGS1 from PS1… sorry for the confusion, I was trying to say a lot at once before.
You've probably played MGS1. It definitely sticks out from the PS2 and PS3 games, in that the character models are pixely messes. But an HD version would take so long, and because MGS1 is already accessible to everyone, easily that it's probably not on Kojimas to-do list.
Infact I'd bet money it's below "Create a new IP and ditch the snakes" on his list!
Oh, I won't bother then, might aswell get the PSX version instead.
If you liked MGS2 then you won't regret it… and MGS2 will make a WHOLE lot more sense!
I'm still confused by one thing:
In MGS1, I believe there's a chance that one of Snake's lady friends (I think it's Meryl) dies and that you can stop that, and depending on what you do you either get an invisible camo of sorts or unlimited ammo.
I was wondering which one is cannon (although this just out of memory).

Its canon that Meryl lives.

That explains the camo at the beginning of MGS2
I should try to put 2 and 2 together next time…
How far are you in Peace Walker anyways?

I'm stuck at the tank boss, Kaz's advice to take out the guards first didn't go very well…

Yeah that's not easy to do with early equipment. Lemme know if you ever want any help with that if you stay stuck.
Althouh I have to ask, what happened to that Rocket Launcher I got earlier?
Good question. I think at that point in the game you can actually get your R&D level high enough to start development on one, but I can't remember how long that might take. Might wanna go a little Fulton-crazy on some earlier maps and hope you get some guys with higher rank in R&D.
