Metal Gear Solid coming to PSN

by Sam Naylor on June 4, 2009 at 11:17 am

That guy's psycho.

Joystiq reports that the classic PS1 title Metal Gear Solid is coming to the PlayStation Network as a downloadable title. The game will be coming to the North American PSN on June 18 for just $9.99, but there’s no word on the European release just yet. Since Metal Gear Solid is pretty much the best game that was ever released for the PS1, this is a great chance for those of us who foolishly sold their MGS1 disc in their naive youth. Of course, that doesn’t apply to me. I live in Europe.

GDC09: ‘The Next MGS’ Awaits Us, May Star Raiden

by Sal Romano on March 26, 2009 at 5:03 pm

Hideo Kojima, creator of the famed Metal Gear Solid series, held a keynote at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco today. Towards the end of the conference, he revealed his next mission: ‘The Next MGS’.

In the image, we see a person who looks like it’s definitely Raiden turning his back towards the text. So the next Metal Gear Solid awaits us, and Raiden may be the star this time around.

Ripten Readers’ Choice: Game of the Year Nominees

by Ripten Staff on December 30, 2008 at 12:26 am

Have a gander at our nominees and let us know which game you think deserves top honors. Additionally, we want to spark some debate as we also want to know which of our nominees is least deserving of Game of the Year.

The best commenter (best arguments, most interesting or humorous comments – as decided by Ripten staff) will also be rewarded with a super awesome prize: a free game! Let your voice be heard! Read more…
