Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 also includes Metal Gear 1 and 2
Earlier this week, Konami revealed not only the existence of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater — a remake of the series' third game — but also the Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1.

I'd love, though, if Konami went a little leftfield. Perhaps the card-based PSP games could be included? A remaster of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance from PlatinumGames? Or even the return of Metal Gear Solid: The Twin
