Metal Gear Solid fans want to know what the ꦐdeal is with the triangle that appears following the game’s title on the Snake Eater remake announcement.

Konami has confirmed the rumours that a Metal Gear Solid 3 remake is on the way with a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:questionable trailer at PlayS꧃tation Showcase. Everyone is all very excited, naturally, as reports ๊on the project have been kic𝕴king around since 2021. It’s just, is 💮the triangle necessary? Following some collective confusion from fans, Konami put out the following on :

“The Delta symbol was chosen because its meaning fits the concept of the remake project. Delta 🥃means ‘change’ or ‘difference’ without changing structure.”

It makes enough sense, given we’re talking about a remake, though not enough toℱ stop fans from clowning on the triangle online.

“Honestly, the one thing that gives me any hope this will have anything going for it is the fact they titled it somethin🌸g as goofy as ‘Metal Gear Solid *Triangle Symbol*’ one fan . “Also, remake Guy Savage, or we riot.” Fair.

Another : “I genuinely thougꦅht this was just a triangle [as] a triangle has three nodes, it was meant to be read as just ‘Metal Gear Solid 3’.”

🐲One resolutely : “I’m still calling it Metal Gear Solid 3 because a triangle has three sides.”

To be fair to Konami, it looks like the Metal Gear Solid 3 remake doesn’t change much of the level structure despite giving it all some visual TLC. Fans have poured over the video and i❀ma✱ges and found the level design to be nearly identical to the original. Just maybe think twice about throwing🌼 in a delta symbol next time.💫
