    40 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many users expressing disappointment over the limited selection of tracks in the digital soundtrack and music player, which only features around 20 songs from the collection. While the new arrangements of main themes and the menu jazz music have been praised, players are eager for a more comprehensive soundtrack that includes all classic tracks from the series, ideally available as a downloadable OST. Overall, while the music is enjoyable, it falls short of expectations for a franchise known for its iconic scores.

    • “The licensed soundtrack for each game was a wonderful surprise as it enabled me to relive the adventures of Solid Snake and his crew while listening to some of the greatest music from the series.”
    • “Gotta say, some banger jazz music in the menu.”
    • “Dude, I love this, the menu music is fire.”
    • “The only real disappointment is the digital soundtrack, which has an extremely limited selection of tracks, though the new arrangements of the main themes are quite pleasant.”
    • “It's touted to play music from all titles in the collection, but in reality it only has a select few from each title, totaling about 20 not including the pre-order bonus songs.”
    • “I was expecting a soundtrack for all three of the Metal Gear Solid titles.”
  • graphics
    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics have received mixed reviews, with some users criticizing the low frame rate (27 fps) and lack of 1080p resolution, suggesting a graphic patch is necessary to enhance texture clarity. However, others appreciate the remastered graphical improvements and bonus content, noting that the games still run well on modern platforms with impressive visuals and special effects. Overall, while there are concerns about the current graphical quality, there is optimism for future enhancements through patches and mods.

    • “The graphical improvements in the remaster and the bonus content create an experience that I truly enjoyed.”
    • “All 4 of them run great on modern platforms, with graphics that are still impressive, great special effects, and excellent audio.”
    • “Additionally, it also includes an extensive library of concept sketches and several digital books with editorials and artwork.”
    • “No better graphics, no better sound, just 27 fps, not even 1080p.”
    • “Graphic patch is needed to remove the 'blur' feel from the textures.”
    • “The screen resolution is not a big deal since I can download mods for better graphics quality.”
  • story

  • optimization
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the optimization of the game is criticized, particularly on PC and Switch, where users report persistent performance and visual issues. Many recommend purchasing the game on PlayStation or Xbox consoles instead, as they seem to offer a more stable experience.

    • “I would however recommend buying it on a PlayStation or Xbox console over PC or Switch, as PC has issues with leaving certain games and Switch still has the performance issues it had since before launch.”
    • “There's visual and performance issues throughout the collection.”
    • “I would however recommend buying it on a PlayStation or Xbox console over PC or Switch, as PC has issues with loading certain games and Switch still has the performance issues it had since before launch.”
    • “I can look past the performance issues; I can look past that no work is done on this version.”
  • humor
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in NES Metal Gear is primarily derived from its amusing mistranslations and "Engrish" text, which adds a lighthearted element to the experience. Players find it entertaining, especially if they are familiar with the MSX version and can appreciate the differences.

    • “While there's fun to be had, I only recommend playing NES Metal Gear if you've finished the MSX version and want to experience the differences (and giggle at some of the hilarious Engrish text).”
