StarYoshi bought the 40GB lawlDoctorBadass

Yep, and I'm proud of it. I disowned my PS2 when it stopped reading discs. I bought a 120gb hdd and a 4 port hub (for when needed, hasn't been needed yet) for less than the price of the 80gb, so I'm happy.

Already did, you know, 4 years ago when I still cared about the PS2. I'm glad Sony is moving away from BC.

But thats your loss

I'll play some Duke 3D now, something you wouldn't like

Of course. I need to know what happened in the first game, and I never got to finish the 2nd.

Don't assume that I don't replay games. I don't replay "meh" games, but I oft play games more than once if they're special. See: Super Mario RPG, Mass Effect, and others. I don't have time to play PS2 games when I have to maintain a PC, the Big 3, and the Small 2 (PSP and DS). It's time to move on for the most part as far as the PS2 goes for me. I still play some cube and box games, though.

Nah. I played MGS 2 a while back and still have MGS 3 Subsistence and don't really want to go all the way back to play the first MGS. It would just burn time that I could spend playing other games... like MGS4?

Definitely not. Unless they're talking about MGS: The Twin Snakes for the GameCube. But they're not.

If it's made to be fully compatible with the 80GB , yes

If not then I'll consider it although I'd rather not have to use my PS2

Yes, its a great deal. Especially since I solf all of them(mgs1 - mgs 3) for 70$. Now I can get them all back in directors cut, and with nice new art on the box.

Yes, pretty much to play the original MGS instead of the twin snakes and substance, It does include substance, not SOL, right?

Anyway, how might someone who doesnt live in the US get it? Do you have to order it by mail or just go to gamespot to buy it?

I preordered it off Amazon. I have tried MGS and MGS2 and didn't care for either. I've decided to give the series another try. I remember trying to get into MGS2 after being in love with the first Splinter Cell. I decided I wanted more stealth action, so I tried MGS2. MGS is so different, I got way turned off.

So, it gets one more try. :)

I'm thinking about it just to get to my hands on MGS1 again. It is dissapointing though that they haven't included the MGS1 VR Missions or have they?

I am still considering it...it is actually a steal for the price. I am also wondering if it is coming on blu-ray but the only reason I would want it is for the substance version and the director's cut.

Now here is something. Would you buy one set or 2 (one for use and other for future purposes)?

This thread is being used to inform people with a PS3 that if they haven't played the other MGS's and want to play 4 they can get this to understand the story rather than going everywhere looking for the games.

So it should stay here.:D

Well, I'll be getting it since I had preordered Sons of Liberty and Snake Eater (I even bought Zone of Enders for the MGS2 demo ;) ), so never got Substance or Subsistence. Haven't played all three in a while, and for how low priced it is, can't pass it up.

It's now the Legacy Board now for last-gen systems. But I think this should stay here for PS3 owners that want to get into MGS.:D
