Noooooo. I want to vote for this, but why textures? Why not use the texture pack from the matrix mystique version? Or just smear random crap over the polygons? If you’re going to release MW2, the best version is the OG dos version
This needs to be remastered as the original titanium trilogy was a buggy mess. I remember the water level where the doors would not open making the mission unwinnable or mercs drop ship in the clan mission would not spawn making you lose instantly.
It shouldnt be that hard to get the license now as Microsoft now owns Activision.
I remember playing this game with friends, swapping back and forth between playing missions, and then tinkering with the mech loadouts to try to get through the tough ones. The graphics might be a bit dated, but the way the mechs felt to move- heavy and unwieldy- was really evocative. Lots of fun!
This was one of the first games I remember playing on a near daily basis as a kid on MS-DOS. It was truly revolutionary for the time when 3D graphics were still relatively new, not to mention it felt mandatory to play on a joystick. I still listen to the OST to the this day. It's practically impossible to run on today's systems, so this getting a release with all the needed support and fixes would be a dream come true, and an instant day one purchase.
Along with Command and Conquer, the Mechwarrior 2 series filled many hours of fun at LAN parties, and remain my favorite of the series for the incredible music, compelling strategic game play, and the fact that, with these games running on home computers, you no longer needed to go to a fancy arcade and pay an exorbitant amount for 15 minutes in a simulation pod any more!
Mercs and GBL both gave so many good memories, different frustrating missions, down to the broken RNG that let that one Flashman that would automatically headshot you if you didn't snipe him down from max range with a PPC. Running circles around friends in Atlases while using a Jumpjet heavy Hellbringer was sheer joy.
A GoG collection would really need to combine the best of every world- I had the ATI Rage2 editions and Titanium editions and I seem to remember the Titanium Trilogy cut down on the original audio and introduced some bugs.
It would also need to add modding in custom mech parts, because we all know we're never getting the Unseen back. :(

Metal Gear Solid HD CollectionFrom the critically acclaimed director, Hideo Kojima, Metal Gear Solid HD Collection offers a handful of the most popular Metal Gear Solid titles from the past in true HD for the first time ever. Featuring three complete games, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, the HD Collection offers old and new fans a chance to experience the epic game play, design and storytelling of the MGS franchise. The "Metal Gear Solid (MGS)" series is the seminal work of Hideo Kojima, Japan's master game creator, and the progenitor of the stealth action game genre. The series has become a global phenomenon, with over 27 million copies sold worldwide. The player controls a secret agent from an elite special forces unit who is sent on solo sneaking missions through enemy installations, vast jungles, and sometimes even the thick of battle. Alone and surrounded by the enemy, even a special forces agent will find it tough to come out alive. But that is the secret behind the series' popularity-the cerebral challenge of figuring out how to avoid combat, and the thrill of sneaking through enemy territory undetected.The MGS series is also known for its storyline, which blends seamlessly with the gameplay. The scenarios are based on extensive research and incorporate the drama of actual developments in society. These elements have made MGS what it is today: a mature work of entertainment that transcends national borders and the confines of video games, and one of the leading products of the Japanese content business.Action Stealth
