MGS2 and 3 just running an emulator to play the HD collection, but somehow having anti-aliasing and texture filtering turned OFF, makes this genuinely lower graphical quality on ps5 than the HD collection on ps3.
MGS1 not supporting analogue movement, despite being openly admitted to be a ps1 emulation, and the ORIGINAL GAME SUPPORTED DUALSHOCK ANALOGUE JOYSTICKS, demonstrates that this is PURELY an issue of Konami's ps1 emulator team not bothering to include analogue movement support that FREE EMULATORS PROVIDE.
Do not buy
10/10
I still have to play the 2nd and 3rd game of this collection.

I never had any experience with the Metal Gear franchise before playing them through this and it served that purpose well. It provided a lot of extra content that I haven't really looked at much and it also provides the old NES game which is a nice addition.
As previously mentioned I never played these games before so I cant really comment on any performance differences as all three games ran perfectly fine for me but apparently compared to previous ports it doesn't hold up as well. Also when it comes to MGS1 moments like switching controllers during the Psycho Mantis fight and finding Meryl's frequency are much more tedious as you cant just pull the controller out and plug it into the other slot or look on the back of the game case (If you bought it digitally at least, like I did)
Obviously its a cash grab as most ports are but I think it gives enough content to not go down as a waste of money. Im wondering what they will include if they do a volume 2. Overall not a bad way to experience these sensational games in the current day
