this steam version vs the gog version any different ??

[Icepick UK]

I would be absolutely amazed if the gog version isn't better than this

[Roland]

It's a COMPLETE difference.
The GOG version is just the old PC port from the 2000s that was a port of Metal Gear Solid Integral.
GOG gave it a graphical spit-shine, which arguably made textures worse, and added Xinput support, but it's still the same game and has the bugs it had in the 2000s.

[ALEXWITHO]

i have both

[mdesaleah]

GOG version is the PC version.

This version is the PS1 version, but with an ugly blur filter added to it, making it inferior to the PS1 version since it has no other changes.

GOG version looks way better, does not require much space.
vs
Steam version, you can play with Japanese, Italian, French, German, UK voice acting.
Plus you get to listen the soundtrack and to read other stuffs

[Pierce Dalton]

The GOG version, once patched (which is not hard to do) is far superior. It certainly has its flaws, yes, but superior doesn't mean "perfect".

"Looks way better" is HIGHLY debatable.
The lack of dithering causes a loss in detail on some textures.
I'm too hungry right now to find the screenshot comparison from a previous thread, but it's arguable which is better because GOG has AA but loses detail, whereas this has no AA but the textures are perfect (relative to their original)

This version looks like vaseline was smeared all over the textures, there's loss of detail in this version too. The PS1 version should look sharper, and there's no perspective correction either.

Really?

Because this version is DEFINITELY not as blurry as several other versions.

that image is BS to. bro captured the playstation version in composite and went "HURR ITS BLURRY SEE". The only way he could have made it worse is if he captured it in RF. This dude is just seething that his port sucks.

It's more like you're seething I'm happy.
You're so angry that you didn't even realize that's not my photo; even though you had an extensive argument with the person who originally posted it.

How's that campaign of yours to stop people form buying the game going?
I think all of Paraguay bought the game while you typed that.

Well it IS still a Ps1 game. It would have been nice to see a texture overhaul but we don't live in the timeline where Konami goes above and beyond sadly

Yup. This is blurrier than the PS1 version, but it runs great, it has been updated to show inputs for the DS4 (literally says "touch pad" instead of "Select" in the captions). It's not a high effort port, I won't make that argument, but so far it runs great, and it doesn't look that bad considering it's an emulated game (blurry filter and upscaled, not that big of a deal). These kids are being way too picky with this. It's like $8.50 a game in this pack. That is perfectly reasonable. So far I've had no technical problems and I am really enjoying the special features (which is honestly the reason I bought it).

GOG version's better and often on sale for $5. Been out for 23 years.

Emulating it yourself is also easy. Hell, don't even need a good computer to do it. Most phones can handle it upscaled better. As a bonus you won't give this ♥♥♥♥♥♥ company money. lol
