Item Description

Few handheld games carry as much history as this one. The PlayStation Vita edition of the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection, released in 2012, brings Hideo Kojima's Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater to Sony's handheld in their expanded Substance and Subsistence forms. Unlike the PS3 and Xbox 360 collection, it leaves out Peace Walker, which began life on the PSP, and puts the focus squarely on two of the defining stealth games of the PlayStation 2 era.

Sons of Liberty opens on a storm-lashed tanker on the Hudson River before shifting to the Big Shell, an offshore cleanup facility seized by terrorists, where rookie operative Raiden steps in for Solid Snake. Guards investigate noises, radio for backup and sweep rooms as a squad, which made sneaking past them feel tense and alive in a way few games had managed. Its twisting plot about information, memory and control was famously divisive in 2001 and looks remarkably prescient now.

Snake Eater rewinds to 1964 and drops Naked Snake into a Soviet jungle, where survival means hunting for food, patching wounds and blending into the undergrowth with the camouflage index. The Cobra Unit bosses are the stuff of legend, especially the slow, patient sniper duel with the ancient marksman The End, and the final confrontation with The Boss is among the most affecting endings in the medium. Subsistence's rotatable 3D camera makes it far easier to read the battlefield, and Harry Gregson-Williams' score and the Bond-style title song give it a cinematic sweep.

Because the Vita lacks the extra shoulder buttons of a DualShock, Konami moved some functions to the front touchscreen and rear touchpad, including item and weapon selection, zooming with the binoculars and peeking around corners. It takes a little adjusting, but the payoff is a pair of console-scale Metal Gear campaigns you can play in short sessions on an OLED screen, and the collection was designed to share save data with the PS3 version through Sony's Transfarring feature. For a Vita owner, it is the most direct way to have Kojima's stealth masterpieces in your pocket.

About the game

From the critically acclaimed director, Hideo Kojima, Metal Gear Solid HD Collection offers a handful of the most popular Metal Gear Solid titles from the past in true HD for the first time ever. Featuring three complete games, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, the HD Collection offers old and new fans a chance to experience the epic game play, design and storytelling of the MGS franchise. The "Metal Gear Solid (MGS)" series is the seminal work of Hideo Kojima, Japan's master game creator, and the progenitor of the stealth action game genre. The series has become a global phenomenon, with over 27 million copies sold worldwide. The player controls a secret agent from an elite special forces unit who is sent on solo sneaking missions through enemy installations, vast jungles, and sometimes even the thick of battle. Alone and surrounded by the enemy, even a special forces agent will find it tough to come out alive.
