    I have never seen this version, can someone who has it explain when this box version was released or have any other info? Just a side note, I wish I had a girlfriend like "JohnnyDeppFan1433" though the drawback is we would spend wayyyy too much money.

    That is the MGS Essentials collection version of the game.

    Pretty cool IMO.

    That MGS is just in a DVD case and is part of the MGS Essentials set that was released about 2 years ago.
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

    Yeah, like they've said, it was just the MGS case from the Essentials box set for PS2. The weird thing about it though is that (as I understand it) that you still need to use an original PS1 memory card for it if you play it on your PS2. I mean, I know that it's the case with all existing PS1 games played on the PS2, but this one was a PS2 re-release.

    Unquestionably; if you don't already have them, anyway. It's still an excellent deal, IMO.

    what they said

    it's a PS1 game in a PS2 case.. not a remake on PS2
