I would buy any console/portable if MGS is on it. WOW this is a MAJOR DOWNGRADE! MGS 3DS look worse than a MGS on PSP. I thought it was sopposed to have console graphics? Better lower that price to $99 Nintendo!

Because one game is representative of what the 3DS is capable of? :roll: Have you seen games like Beyond the Labyrinth, Tekken 3D Prime Edition and Resident Evil Revelations? Those output those 'console level graphics' that you are looking for.

To be honest I had high hopes for the 3DS high profile games and i was especially impressed by the first few screens and the naked sample but if this is what 3DS is capabale rendering a MGS game....speechless

Have you watched Kid Icarus: Uprising, Resident Evil: Revelations, Animal Crossing (hell, it looks better than City Folk), or Beyond the Labyrinth? Blame the dev, not the system.

lol, when did the MGS devs say that their game would have console graphics (btw, Technically, those are console graphics, just not good ones. ;) )?

And why are you blaming Nintendo when its clearly Konami's fault?

Its funny when people blame Nintendo for third party decisions. :P

Was MetalGear3DS the only reason you were getting a 3DS? Kind of setting yourself up for dissapointment there.

Has anyone seen the MGS3 trailer on the 3DS store? It certainly looks better than this. I think you really need to see the game in action on the 3DS.

Were you even planning to buy a 3DS anyway.:roll: And blame Konami for going all lazy not Nintendo and I find it weird that this game looks worse everytime it is shown. The game look better during E3.

I think the hype for this game was pretty much killed off when the HD MGS collection was announced anyway.

I agree.......i don't see any reason anymore to make this on the 3ds.I am afraid that probably they will cancel it at the end....like AC.

Its obvious that the budget for this game was severely cut. I was also planning to get it, but was I saw the downgrade from the naked sample trailer to the e3 screens I changed my mind. These new batch of screens only support my position.

  1. Already a thread on this:http://www.gamespot.com/forums/topic/28816897/mgs-3-has-never-looked-so-bad?tag=topics%3Btitle
  2. MGS3D hype died off when MGS HD collection announced.
  3. As far as portability goes, the PS3 version will have "transfarring" where you will be able to transfer MGS games to your PSP.

I live in Europe. The app itself has only 4 videos and I can't find the E3 videos from the eShop either.

People kept asking if the PS Vita was going to have its RAM downgraded, and after all this time Sony has still said "no." After seeing these new MGS3 screens, it looks like it's the 3DS that had a downgrade! :o

Seriously, those are some butt ugly graphics. It looks like freaking MGS Portable Ops, which was a mid-generation PSP game! :?

Not to mention you can also play MGS HD collection on the PS Vita if you get the PS3 version. Come on, Konami! Isn't 3DS supposed to be more powerful than a PS2?

Why, i've seen infinitely better looking games than that on the 3DS. Resulting that the hardware is there. So logically, its Konami's fault for whatever the hell happened with this game.

What does Nintendo have to do with Konami? I don't get your logic.

Its a handheld, not a console. This is how handheld games looked in the 6th generation wen the PS2/Gamecube/Xbox were alive and well.The progression is good.

I don't gives a rats ass about handheld gaming, i never owned one and never will. But i am bored enough to bring some logic to you. The crappy visuals from the MGS 3DS game are a blunder from Konami. If the hardware wasn't there, Resident Evil Revelations (gameplay vid. shown recently) & Beyond the Labyrint wouldn't be what they are. This is fact, end of disscusion.

Just because MGS3 looks like crud on the 3DS doesn't mean all games do. I find it amusing how people look at these screenshots and start wailing that the 3DS is a horrible, despicable, terrible gaming machine. Still, PSV graphics look better. 8) But the 3DS ain't bad, IMO.

And again it looks very ugly..........Gamecube - level graphics confirmed.But wait...the GC games looks better that this.

And the Gamecube was a powerful machine for its time, well above the PS2 in power and just below the Xbox. And honestly, why are people acting like this is a shock? Its not a huge secret that the 3DS' overall power is around the range of Gamecube-Xbox.

But here's the thing, the failure of MGS3D's graphics is not the fault of the 3DS. If the 3DS is close to the level of the Gamecube or Xbox, then the game should look much better then it looked on the PS2. Any failure to enhance the graphics beyond the PS2 version is not an issue of the hardware.

It due to either a slashed budget or a development team that can't be bothered to enhance the graphics further. If the game ends up looking far worse then the PS2 version, then the finger need to be pointed at either Konami, Kojima, or both parties.

3DS has awful graphics ... Why do people keep saying otherwise? I've ter to see anything that's better then what the PSP offered to be honest. The Vita will b where to go for graphics, however ... when have handhealds (especially Nintendo ones) been about graphics?

It'll have Pokemon, and millions will buy it. Including me, sadly.

That looks pretty bad but it isn't Nintendo's fault, other 3DS games have shown the system is capable of much more.
