We heard rumors back in September about a potential remake of Hideo Kojima’s legendary PS1-era stealth title, Metal Gear Solid, and now, additional tidbits are beginning to come out about a next-gen revisit to Shadow Moses Island.



In his latest episode of Broken Silicon, Moore’s Law Is Dead confirmed that a Metal Gear Solid remake is indeed coming, and not only that, it’s being developed by Bluepoint Games—the very same studio that gave us those fantastic PS4 remasters of Shadow of the Colossus and the Uncharted trilogy (i.e...

I imagine that weird UltraTaco character will be shedding tears of joy over this announcement (if it becomes true).

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA that is very true. I guess I meant a remaster of a remaster. But yeah, a PC port for that game would've been cool. The Gamecube remake of RE1 did eventually make it to PC after all. Of course Capcom likes PC more than Konami does.

Yeah I would agree with that.
 
Yeah I believe Twin Snakes is running on a version of MGS2's engine.
