Metal Gear Solid HD Collection For Vita Arrives This Summer
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake EaterAs you might expect, that Metal Gear Solid HD Collection was a must for all hardcore fans of the legendary franchise.
But you couldn't take that one with you. The good news is that Konami has confirmed that the excellent assembly of MGS classics will hit the PlayStation Vita this summer.
We don't have an exact date just yet, but that's okay; it's a great option for those who didn't nab this Collection for the PS3 last year. Heck, it's great even if you did. Featuring Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater redone in brilliant high-definition, the Vita version will add two important features: touchscreen and and cross-platform compatibility with the PS3 version; you may recall Konami's "transfarring" save option. So yeah, start playing on one and keep goin' on the other!
The only downside is that while the PS3 iteration included an updated version of Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, the Vita version of this Collection won't boast the great PSP game. We're not really sure why (seems like it would be a good fit; one portable to another) but we can live without. MGS2 and MGS3 are plenty, yes?

I read on a different site this morning that touch controls are being integrated to a degree, for instance: the player can peek from around a corner by using the touch screen, and weapons and items are selected using the touch screen.
Hopefully the MGS4/PW control layout will be implemented, it would be ridiculous (imo) to use the original control scheme.

That is a good idea, MPO needs 2 analog stick capability anyway.

for example ..say the end of march is our last day to buy mgs hd collection..so if you have a copy by end of march your enrolled for a free download of the vita versions of mgs2&3..
it seems only fair i mean come on i have the games on my ps2 and psp, i have them on ps3 i even have the original black label mgs1 with vr missions AS WELL as the digital copy on psn..
how more loyal of a customer do you want mgs fans to be?
(*prays for konami to do this*)
