Some dude fixed Metal Gear Solid for PC so that it can work on modern machines. And up to 1080p.

Final Release of my Project Metal Gear Solid 1 Integral for PC Playable on current hardware and operating systems

Since Metal Gear Solid 1 was unplayable on modern machines

I felt compelled to keep this oldie alive and well,since It has long been abandoned nor available anymore on the market

I wanted to preserve a piece of gaming history. It would be a shame if it disappeared completely!

Therefor I’ve spend a few months working on this in my sparetime

With the help of /r/metalgearsolid community members their feedback

I've been able to work out most of the gamebreaking bugs/issues/glitches

And now it’s time to present my final release, I won’t be actively working on this project from now on.

I will however try to support if any issues arise.

DOWNLOAD:

Full installer package -Mega.nz

Ingame screenshot(s) with PrtScn key, Image will be saved in gamefolder

Verified support for PS3 /Xbox Controller (PS4 controller only after PS3 emulation)

Don’t let Nvidia/AMD software profile this game (Due to manipulation of HW GPU, The game thinks it’s running on an Geforce Ti4800)

Theoretically it could be played through a PS1 emulator, however this seems far better. I'm actually going to try this :]
