Need I remind all of you that this was the same collection that included the Digital Graphic Novels (which were technically games since they were released onto those PSP discs) despite the fact that they were very much non-canon (not only were they not even made by Kojima, but in the case of Metal Gear Solid 2, it was so different from the original game that to claim it was an adaptation is basically a lie [they even had Solid Snake steal Raiden's thunder multiple times and make Raiden seem even more weak than the original game].). 193.60.218.253 wrote: And Im not being funny but the Digital Graphic Novels on the Legacy Collection anyway are not games they are movies that show alternatives to the stories. Kojima included the Digital Graphic Novels in the Legacy Collection, so that new players unaccustomed to the old control scheme and fixed camera of the first two games could at least experience the story in some fashion, believing they would have difficulty completing the games (MGS3: Subsistence at least included the 3D camera). They're adaptations of the official IDW comic books, which were adaptations of the original games. Adaptations are never 100% faithful, as seen in countless movies based on novels/games and vice-versa.
