*** Done ***PS2/PSX - Metal Gear Solid: The Essential Collection - NTSC/US

[Doom]

by link i think you mean pictures, they are just preview pictures untill doom scans in the real ones.

no one is using those for making a cover, they are way to small 

Actually someone posted raws but it looks like after the dpi was pointed out he deleted his posts.

oh my bad, well hopefully you get yours soon doom

Sheesh. I wasn't trying to be mean. He could've just rescanned them! Anyway, what he posted was two of the same thing. One he labeled as 300dpi and the other as 600dpi. They were both scans of the Metal Gear Solid 1 PS1 DVD cover from the set. Neither was a scan of the outer box. I actually downloaded both (and still have them) to check em out when I noticed they were 96dpi. I do appreciate the scans, just higher quality would have been nice. This is what he posted (for reference):

At least we know what it looks like now.

Two PS1 CDs. This has been confirmed all over the place. My set still isn't here, but the mail hasn't come yet. Here's hoping.

OK, mail came and guess what? No MGS! Isn't mail awesome? GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

[Doom]

Here it is two weeks after I ordered it and it's still not here. At least Walmart.com has the balls to say it's delayed in transit, but it still says I should have it by four days ago at the latest. HULK SMASH!

Just go to Walmart and buy it, save your receipt, and when you finally do get it return it to the store.  They'll take anything back, especially if its not opened.  I know my Walmart has a ton of them in stock.

If it gets to the point where I'm tired of brawl and it still isn't here I will do just that.

[Doom]

It finally came! I'm brawling online with a 3 buddies so it'll be a little bit before I scan them in. Maybe in between loosing and the next match.

yes finally!!!

i think i was anticipating this almost as much as you were (ok not quite)

have fun playing smash bros.
when you up the covers i'm going to convert the artwork to the horizantal style immediately.
that way we will have both 

[Doom]

600dpi raw of MGS1 for now. Finished covers of the three in the set later, after, I catch up on some MGS.

LMK if there's anything wrong with it.

[shenske]

well the official way is the vertical style, but here is the horizantal version.

Metal Gear Solid



marioxb requested the new logo style, so ...



tell me what you think 

[Doom]

Nice job. Might wanna post in your own PS1 thread, too.
Are you going to do it in the horizontal style too? (so we don't do the same cover)
Raws of MGS2 and 3:

yeah i'll do vertical style too 

i'll do it in a couple hours i'm headed out the door

[Doom]

yeah i'll do vertical style too 

bleh that's what I meant. Having never played MGS, this set is awesome. I love MGS1 so far. Kinda mad I spoiled so much of the game because I thought I would never play MGS. Dammit. All of the cool tricks ruined. Oh well.

[marioxb]

I love the version with the new logo style. I also love how you didn't keep the generic back. Don't know if I like the "2 disc" logo on the front. Maybe it should be on the back, along with a compact disc logo?

Or what about using part of the retail back cover (just the bottom), kinda like this:


Keep in mind that I just threw the back all together and is just meant as a rough idea at this stage.

I'd also like to see a matching set with parts 2 and 3 from the set with the new logo on the first one, of course.
