Metal Gear Solid Unreal 4 remake looks awesome – video

Metal Gear Solid remade with shiny modern graphics. Wouldn’t say no.

Shadow Moses is a fan remake of Metal Gear Solid built in Unreal Engine 4. Creator Airam Hernandez has released first video footage of the project, and it’s looking pretty damn special.

I didn’t realise how much I wanted this till I saw it. Both Metal Gear Solid 2 and Metal Gear Solid 3 have been remastered, but the original Metal Gear Solid has gone without an updated re-release, despite strong fan demand, because it needs a full overhaul rather than an HD brush up.

We know that Metal Gear will continue even now that Hideo Kojima has left Konami. Maybe a remake of the 1998 classic would be a good warm up for the new development team? Just sayin’.

Black Ops 3 the best selling game of 2015 “by a wide margin,” series crosses 250 million sales

Just how big is Call of Duty? Well, it’s so big that even Star Wars can’t bring it down! The NPD Group has revealed the best selling games of 2015, and Call of Duty: Black Ops III sits atop the iron throne once again, ranking as both the best selling game in December and the best selling game in 2015 overall. Activision even describes its victory as a “wide margin.”

This marks seven straight years of domination with a Call of Duty title being North America’s best selling franchise. Even Grand Theft Auto V, which saw most of its sales slow-burn to huge numbers and split over two years, hasn’t been able to dethrone it. Call of Duty: Black Ops III sold so many copies that it was also able to push the series’ total lifetime sales to over 250 million units, as noted by Activision’s Senior Vice President and General Manager for Call of Duty Rob Kostich.

“Call of Duty: Black Ops III was the top-selling title of 2015 globally by a wide-margin in both units and dollars sold-thru. This also marks the seventh year in a row that Call of Duty has been the No. 1 selling franchise in North America, according to NPD. In fact, Call of Duty has surpassed 250 million units sold life-to-date worldwide.  This achievement is thanks to the amazing experiences created by all of our development teams, and would not be possible without the  incredible passion from the Call of Duty community. We congratulate Treyarch on creating an incredibly engaging and an enormously fun game with Black Ops III and look forward to what’s to come in 2016.”

Star Wars Battlefront, which EA was hoping would put a solid dent in Activision’s hold on the shooter market, closed out as the second best selling game in December and the fourth best of the year behind Fallout 4 and Madden.
