Sony lists 'Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater' and 'Silent Hill 2' for 2024 release on PS5

ps 2024.jpg

We've just entered a new year and this means new games to look forward to. In anticipation of new games coming to the PS5 this year, Sony has published a blog post and a video to hype up what it calls " the biggest games coming to PS5 in 2024". These include anticipated titles such as Final Fantasy VII Rebirth and Dragon's Dogma 2; but interestingly, Sony also includes among this list two of Konami's remakes, namely Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater and Silent Hill 2.



Publisher Konami has itself not provided official release windows for either of these games but according to Sony, we might be able to play them this year. However, an exact release date for these remakes have yet to be announced and delays might not be out of the question.

You know I don't know if it's just me, but gaming is starting to become disappointing. If it isn't the buggy nature each title keeps bringing, it's the fact that there's nothing really to look forward to, it's starting to become much like the film industry, mostly trash with the occasional gem every once in a while. Nothing really innovative anymore, everything is about hardware power, but what the fuck is power when it's not even used correctly, and if nothing is offered to really define the damn systems expected of us to be interested in, then what is the point of them? What the hell is wrong with media man? Has mankind seriously gone so far off the deep end that we just can't get shit right anymore? Between idiotic consumers and greedy corporations, both quite lacking any soul in anything anymore, I'm starting to question if there's anything to look forward to anymore where gaming is concerned, maybe it's becoming time to throw in the towel. We have priorities in all the wrong places, so much money is wasted, so many useless entries, dare of say hardware, too much for us to even know what good to do with.

Gaming is dying, slowly, and painfully. Much like many other aspects of media. This hurts to hear and watch.

It's been like that for a while, I'd rather a game come out late than buggy as hell but what's irritating is these companies announcing games like a year early just to be told it's going to launch another year down the road. Plus with remakes when we already have dozens of methods to play them already. Just announce it when it's ready and release it like a month later instead of trying to build up hype and making us wait longer. I don't think its dying just that you can only build a bridge so high. They can only do so much with the handful of engines they actually have. Maybe use Ai on the corporate side and come up with new unique engines, portables we can actually afford, vr head sets that don't suck and doesn't have to be $500 per launch etc...

It's quite sad that most AAA games in this generation are either remakes, remasters or sequels. I can't think of any AAA games at all that are new IPs
Risk. Companies hate it.

Why take a jump with an original idea when you can milk nostalgia and/or profit off a readymade attention-grabber?

Oh yes, I'm completely aware of the reason why, it's just, as a nearly 40 year old veteran gamer, it's a bit disheartening.

Limitations may exist with the inventions we create, however what man seems to keep forgetting is, while there is a limit to such things, there's also the fact we don't actually bring forth the full potential of what we create either. No developer knows or pushes things to its true potential the first time around, this progress takes time to achieve. We just never seem to find it with most things, gaming being no different from that. These developers have been doing this shit for quite a long time now. We haven't really evolved with it, and no, pretty lights and a behemoth space heater sitting in a computer doesn't count lol (that's a regression).

The stealth genre is more or less dead so I guess we should be somewhat grateful to see "new" MGS games. 😕



Also, the fact the last Splinter Cell game we got was Blacklist was pretty disappointing because Michael Ironside didn't voice him so it didn't feel like a genuine SC game. :(

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
