[QUOTE="Admin, post: 59279, member: 1"] Konami has explained the meaning of the mysterious [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/metal-gear-solid-delta-snake-eater']Δ symbol embedded in the title of Metal Gear Solid 3 Remake[/URL], which was revealed during last night’s PlayStation Showcase. “The Delta symbol (Δ) was chosen because its meaning fits the concept of the remake project,” read a tweet from the official Metal Gear twitter account. “Delta means 'change' or 'difference' without changing structure.” Delta is a symbol taken from the Greek alphabet, which is often used in the modern era to denote a state of change, chiefly in scientific fields. For example a lowercase version of the symbol can denote an alteration in molecular chemistry, while the change in velocity of a space rocket is measured in delta v (Δv). In this case, the symbol has been used by Konami to symbolise the changes being made to [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/metal-gear-solid-3-snake-eater']Hideo Kojima’s original version of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater[/URL], which was first released as a PlayStation 2 title all the way back in 2004. We don’t yet know exactly what form these changes will take, but Konami has promised that the remake will boast [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/metal-gear-solid-3-remake-announced-playstation-showcase']“unprecedented graphics” and “immersive sound”[/URL], and that it will feature evolved gameplay with “a seamless user experience”. The company has also told fans that the remake — which has yet to be given a release date — will represent a “faithful recreation” of Kojima’s 2004 original in terms of story and game design. Xbox also took to Twitter earlier today to highlight the fact that Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater will also be coming to Xbox Series X|S consoles, along with a number of other titles revealed during the PlayStation showcase. [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/metal-gear-solid-3-remake-also-confirmed-for-xbox-and-pc']The title will also be coming to PC[/URL]. PlayStation also revealed the Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 at yesterday's event, which will make the first three games of the franchise available to play on PS5 when it drops in August this year.
