This has been a highly anticipated release for many Metal Gear Solid fans, as it allows them to experience classic games with modern systems, and some are even relieved to avoid using emulators. However, the implementation of a new game launcher, coupled with outdated graphics, lack of widescreen support, and severely flawed keyboard and mouse controls have led to significant criticism. Despite positive notes on the performance and the port of certain games, long-time fans find the game launch messy, but remain hopeful for future updates.
