Metal Gear Solid for GameCube Announced

Xs writes "GameSpot.com has confirmed the new Metal Gear Solid title for GameCube titled, Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes. The game sports the original MGS plot, but with totally revamped graphics. Plus, the game is being supervised by both Hideo Kojima and Shigeru Miyamoto! Sounds pretty awesome - hopefully they will add more than just the upgraded graphics." This was one of the best games around back when the Playstation was all the rage. With the resources of the GameCube thrown at this game, it could be gorgeous to behold.

Could be good, but it would be nice if they produced a new story every now and then, instead of rehashing the same game years later on every platform...

Great, but...

This is great news! It'll be great to see if the Cube can truly compete with the PS2. However...

The original Metal Gear Solid on PlayStation, for all its (now) primitivity, has a certain beauty of its own. Back then, we truly appreciated the things it held -- The beauty of the snow, the motion blur, the impressive power of Rex. In its primitive (again, compared to now) graphics lie a certain beauty, and I hope the new game doesn't have a sterile feel like some rehashes do. Do not simply make the game with new graphics - Make the graphics fit the game and be a logical offshoot from the old, don't go changing things. I still want the HIND fight to be immersive, I still want the Comm Tower to take place at that central angle, and I still want the same basic feel to everything.

I hope it will be worthy of the name.
