If for some reason you didn't want the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection, and only wanted to buy each game piecemeal, now's your chance.

Perhaps you didn't want to revisit Raiden's naked body in HD? Or maybe you were afraid of creating high-definition time paradoxes? If for some reason you didn't want the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection, and only wanted to buy each game piecemeal, now's your chance.

Starting August 21, Konami will be offering each game in the HD Collection separately. The release schedule and line-up is different across every platform, however.

August 21st:

METAL GEAR SOLID 2: SONS OF LIBERTY - HD Edition (PS Vita)

METAL GEAR SOLID 3: SNAKE EATER - HD Edition (PS Vita)

METAL GEAR SOLID 2: SONS OF LIBERTY - HD Edition (PS3)

METAL GEAR SOLID 3: SNAKE EATER - HD Edition (PS3)

METAL GEAR SOLID - HD Collection – MGS2 + MGS3 (X360) – Games On Demand release

August 28th:

METAL GEAR SOLID: PEACE WALKER (PS3)

METAL GEAR SOLID: PEACE WALKER (X360) – Games on Demand Release

METAL GEAR SOLID - HD Collection Bundle – MGS2+3+PW (PS3)

We've contacted Konami to find out how much each game will cost a la carte. Considering the original HD Collection release retailed for $40, we're guessing each game will cost about $15.

  I know it's nit picking, but am I the only one that is disturbed by the fact that it says, "Metal Gear Solid HD COLLECTION" when it's missing MGS1? Sure, you can grab it (the original) on PSN, but then it's NOT a collection imo or HD for that matter...

    Too many people bitched and griped about the excellent Twin Snakes so you can pretty much count an HD version of MGS1 down and out for the count at any point in the future.
