The Metal Gear collection is a hot item for hardcore Metal Gear fans. It includes nearly every game ever created in the Metal Gear franchise: the original Metal Gear, Metal Gear 2 Solid Snake, Metal Gear Solid, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, and the PSP Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops. In addition, documentary DVDs will also be included. In Japan, the package ran a very affordable 6250 yen -- about the same cost of one modern retail game.
So, will this collection make its way over to the States? At Comic Con, Kotaku's Michael McWhertor spoke to Konami's marketing VP, Anthony Kraus about the issue. He confirmed that Konami was "considering" the package, but they had to talk to retailers about interest in such a collection. If the collection comes to America, it might not be the exact same collection. It will, however, be "very similar."

Wow that is a sweet deal. This is great for newcomers to the series (like me) who are completely lost in the series' storyline. I'd buy it!

It will be different; it will be more expensive.

So this set is for the PS2 right? Also is this version of Metal Gear Solid the original PS1 version or the Gamecube version (twin snakes), I hope its the gamecube version as the PS1 graphics kinda suck these days.

yes its the ps1 version of mgs. and if you only want to buy one game, then go buy it. why would you honestly ask if you could buy 1 game out of a collector's edition?

I hope they include MGS2 Substance instead of the plain Sons of Liberty.
Also have them released separately if possible.
