Re: What does "Shalashaska" mean?

I take it you didn't listen to the Push To Talk interview with Jeremy Blaustien. "Bottom line is it doesn't matter as long as you don't know..." ~ Jeremy Never heard of it mate. Is that quote specifically referring to the name "Shalashaska"? In what context is it used? And, do y...

Re: "Super Widescreen" on HD remakes of MGS2 and MGS3

Should definitely write in the comment box on that page AND send an email if you can. It MAY be worth it. A couple of fans have suggested that if it's "still tweak-able" why don't they give the user the option to chose which they prefer? Seems the decent thing to do, and by today's blu-ray...

Re: Metal Gear Saga (1-3) HD Remakes for PS3???

No PS3 game that I have played has a native resolution of 1080p, so I myself didn't expect such. Nice to know that at least one of the games, not being the best one aside, gets a 1080p treatment! Then again it still won't look as good as MGS3 regardless so... This is true, MGS3 (and MGS2 judging by...

Re: Metal Gear Saga (1-3) HD Remakes for PS3???

I'm a bit disappointed that they screwed up the letter boxing considering it was "Do-able", within the rework. Oh well... Anyone else getting the Ltd Edition European set? It's a monster price for a steel book edition though, hope a little effort goes into it! Also, just found out the MGS2...

What does "Shalashaska" mean?

As the title says really, can't get a clear cut answer when Googling it! "Shalashaska" (シャラシャーシカ Sharashāshika), was Ocelot's nickname when he was younger. The Official MGS Database, says this... Revolver Ocelot's nickname. In his younger days, Ocelot took part in the Soviet invasion of Af...

Re: Metal Gear Saga (1-3) HD Remakes for PS3???

That's not what the Snake Soup is saying. What it's saying is that the original field of view should be displayed full-screen, with subtitles placed on top of the screen (like what's done in MGS4/Portable Ops/Peace Walker), instead of what amounts to letterboxing HD games. What we're suggesting the...

Re: Metal Gear Saga (1-3) HD Remakes for PS3???

I've not read through the posts entirely, so sorry if I've missed anything, but the point made on Snake Soup is that it should be zoomed, I for one would be TOTALLY against that. Yes, with expanding at least you're seeing more (maybe even stuff that director didn't intend to be in shot) BUT, and thi...

That's the name of the artist who made all of these. Yeah but that was answered a long time ago, earlier in the thread. It's a little odd, plus it's all quotes which is confusing matters. probably a design agancy. or konamis own marketing crew. I don't think it's a specific artist. the PO indeed lo...

Ok I've seen the pic elsewhere but doesn't the third symbol appear on the PS3 standby switch = |/O (with a little line at the top of the "O")?
