Peace Walker sucks

[BarbarossaBMW88]

I have the HD collection and after playing 2 and 3 I moved on to PW, it's complete garbage. Controls and graphics are total sh*t and it shouldn't have been ported to PS3, it's so bad I can't play it. Also it's so watered down for kids, no CQC kills in PW (garbage)

IIRC, their fix was to emulate a PSP on their PS3.

That's incorrect. When porting Peace Walker to PS3/360, Bluepoint did a lot of work to adapt the game and controls. You now have true analog control for aiming, not a digital input. Attacking and rolling are now given a separate button. The game was re-coded to run at 60FPS as opposed to its original 20. You can use the triggers (PS3) or bumpers (360) to access your weapons/items, classic MGS style. Face buttons had functions reserved for the d-pad as well, etc.

OP said they were having trouble with Big Boss's movement being too sensitive on the left stick, I have a feeling that that's an issue with their controller, because several others and myself have never had that issue.

They went above and beyond merely porting or emulating the PSP version, the only real "flaw" with the console version of Peace Walker is that aiming is now almost too easy. Since the game was made for digital input aiming, hitboxes are bigger than usual, making certain targeting situations trivial on console. But it's still the best way to play.

It’s s PSP game. If you hate the controls, don’t even try the original version xD. If you actually played 4 you’d know Peace Walker is almost identical to that with the controls.

just because you have a controller problem does not mean the game "sucks"

Also,pretty sure the no-kill CQC is a hardware limitation so the game is not "watered down" for kids,you edgelord moron

The game still has CQC and it added the CQC chain that was later used in 5.

you're ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ an old PSP game that is regarded as one of the best PSP games by the large majority? if a trashy port was made and you dislike it and its controls, that is your own problem, but that doesnt mean the game "sucks". especially not for the time and console it was intended for.

Yeah I don't understand the praise peace walker gets. The controls aren't the problem, it's the gameplay that's just ♥♥♥♥ when transferred to consoles. And mother base is more tedious to run than in mgsv.

That too, the game feels like a silly PSP game when played on a console. It just has no business being on console and the graphics look worse than MGS3

You’re telling me a PSP game doesn’t have graphics as good as PS2. You don’t say xD.

I think it's a fair comparison, 2010 PSP game vs 2004 PS2 game

Lol. Youre comparing a 2010 Portable to a 2004 console xD. Of course the console will look better.

Shouldn't be on console then, in your defense I actually didn't know that PW was a PSP game so I had high expectations for it from the start

Why not xD? Cause you dont approve? The console version improves on the PSP version tremendously, and without it a majority of players wouldnt know what was even happening during 5 because most people didnt buy a PSP. If you want similar examples of this, Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep is a PSP game with an enormous following from fans after the 60 fps console release/

It doesn't feel like a proper MGS game on PS3, it feels cheap and silly. I'm sure it's a great game in PSP but on PS3 it just feels like a cheap copy of a real MGS game
