Hey, The project is to re-create Metal Gear for the GP2x/Pc/Dreamcast. The reason.. Well I love the original Msx Metal Gear's. I have always liked the original but felt it needed a few changes mainly a more indepth storyline with deeper relationships between Characters. I also prefer how MG2 plays compared to the MG1 and wanted to incorperate that style of play into the game. So what did I decide to do.. Remake it. Basically at the moment the project is just in design phase so no need to get too excited. I am looking for good artists that want to contribute codec portraits and cutscene art/ promo art. I myself am creating sprites (well more like emulating the mg 2 sprite style). My coder is very experienced with porting pc code to other consoles. Okay let me run quickly through some of the ideas floating around.  Cast of Metal Gear: Top Left to Right Outer Heaven Mercs Twin Shot, Shot Maker, Dirty Duck, Fire Trooper, Machine Gun Kid, Big Boss Middle Left to Right Jennifer, Solid Snake, Gray Fox, Ellen Madnar, Dr. Madnar Bottom Left to Right Guards   Okay and here are some example screenshots.    Just for kicks I figured Id post some old work (this is not officially using the correct msx style).  So yeah Id love to hear your feedback about this, any ideas or suggestions um... any help would be appreciated. If you have questions about the game, characters, intentions here is the place to ask. Thanks for taking the time to check out this thread. |

I think that is a really good idea. This really interests me because I used to sprite myself. But how would you play it on a dreamcast? Would it have to be chipped. Anyway Im gonna keep my eye on this thread to see how it turns out. Good job

Those are cool, though I think the original Snake closeup was fine to begin with. When do we get to see the metal gear? |

I'm the least you could do, if only life was as easy as you.

All I can say is good luck with it. I don't know anything to help you but I've always wanted a remake that had deeper character interaction and such..so this looks really cool to me. |
