How well would a copy of the PS1 game Metal Gear Solid hold up on the PS3? Does it look worse, lag or have framerate problems? I've never played MGS but I love MGS2 and MGS3 and have played them to death so I was wondering if I should get the first one. Has Sony/Konami announced the possibilty of releasing a PSN version?

I don't see why it would look any worse.

As of right now there's no plans to release it on the PSN, but it's possible.

I still have my original MGS from 1998 with the shiny crimson logo on white background on the front cover...maybe I'll play it later and let you know the details of how it's running.

I have the same problem its not just you. Its like once we get spoiled with the newer better looking more complex games the older ones are hard to sit and play.

I know what you mean.
My friend keeps telling me to go play the original doom and half-life because they're really good, I just can't stand the visuals anymore.
With 2D games like the original Duke Nukem I'm alright though, I think it's just old 3d games.

Anyway how much can MGS1 cost now? Might as well get it seeing as it can't cost more than like $4
