Is it unportable or something? Is it the only game to tap into the power of the cell?

Can't you just emulate it? Why give Konami more money on a dead franchise?

So alright ok let’s be real for one second: What WAS the power of the cell? Why did Sony spend so much money on developing it? Why do PS3 games feel and look no different from 360 games? What was the point? Was it just a failure that didn’t actually do anything special?

It's specifically made for the fucked-up retarded design of the PS3, and even then it runs at a low and unstable framerate with constant dynamic resolution changes.

Never played it but I assume this is the one with the unskippable gorillion hour epilogue?

If you have a single chip that can do everything then, uh, it would be nice and clean or something.

For real, this was the time when it was unclear if consoles should try to be distinct platforms with unique hardware OR the now-standard PC model of CPU/GPU working together with graphical libraries to render the game. Sony gambled incorrectly that a CPU could do everything games needed while running in software while outputting a software-rendered 1080p signal (it rarely happened as a result).

MGS4 is the first MGS that let you pause cutscenes, so long cutscenes don't stop you from pausing the game and going to do something else.

Nah. You can skip every cutscenes except the prologue tv show, which lasts around 2-3 minutes I think.

If they port it they'll cut the multiplayer, so there's no reason to play it anyway
Anonymous No.713512590 >>713513283

it's not unskippable, but yeah the ending cutscene is literally movie length. at least you can pause it. and if you've gotten that far in the game, I doubt you're skipping it anyway, the story is pretty much the only reason to stick around that long because the gameplay ended chapters ago.

It was very special actually, most devs just couldn't utilize it to it's maximum potential. The US Military literally built a super computer out of a cluster of 1760 Playstation 3s.

How does this help render 1080p60? or 1080p30?
Oh, it doesn't...

Maybe Sony should've made a game console and not some weird supercomputer experiment that can't run 360 games due to lacking a real GPU.

yes, it got the power of blu-ray.
no need to swap discs, snek.
just wait 10 minutes multiple times per playthrough for the installation.

They had to do an install per Act because the PS3 originally did not allow for installs over a certain size. When MGS4 was updated with achievements/trophies, they added in the option to install all the Acts at once as was intended.

The fact that MGS4 is a big humiliation ritual against the beloved Solid Snake also has soured MGS4 among fans.
Kojima can't stand that people love Snake as a character.

no one gives a fuck, the "game" movie is a train wreck and garbage slop.

with a properly designed system, there wouldn't have been installations.

The PS3's blu-ray drive is very slow, so you're wrong.
Almost every game had to be installed on the HDD in some way, and even the 360 switched to doing this mid-generation because of the obvious benefits it has for loading times.compared to slowly seeking aling the disc and loading things as needed.

Same reason why this thread exists: they never got the chance to get a PS3 and play it for themselves.
The only reference they have is from Youtube videos lol.

I'm not a Sony fanboy and MGS4 is my least favorite MGS, but I bought a PS3 for MGS4 exclusively back when they had a bundle for sale.

Annoyingly, this was the first batch of PS3's that didn't have native PS2 support... so I couldn't play my PS2 games like everyone else who got one earlier.

so did I, and I was so pissed that piece of shit, that I sold the PS3 afterwards.
Didn't sell MGS4 because the collector's edition went used for dirt cheap, because everyone figured that it was garbage.

They patched out most of the issues and added proper keyboard and mouse settings for the PC versions, it's the way it should have been when it came out now.

It's a lazy re-release of the Disk 1 of the MGSHD Collection + MGS1. Nothing new added other than the ability to play japan only versions and choose regions. And game manuals. Other than that, literally nothing new added, but at the same time, they never really said it was gonna be anything but a simple re-release on PC and simply having it avaliable on steam is enough for me. You can even mod the game now.

but qrd
>MGS1
You'd be getting better results by emulating it. If you can't be bothered, then it's ok
>MGS2
Minor audio issues and missing graphical effects that were also missing in the PS3/360 release. Fixable by mods
>MGS3
The only legal and native way to play MGS3 on pc. Some audio problems iirc. You can mod the MGS3DS crouch walk in.

Idk if they fixed the botched MnK support but desu, playing classic MGS games with MnK feels off. Might give it a try though, first person aiming sucks balls
