Modern game and graphics engines are powerful, but they're nowhere near as powerful as fans' neverending need to remake and remaster scenes from classic games. We already knew this was true thanks to fan recreations of World of Warcraft and Zelda: Ocarina of Time, but this shot-for-shot remake of the Metal Gear Solid introduction is something else.

When I say shot-for-shot, I mean shot-for-shot: I used YouTube Doubler to play both intros next to each other, and everything is identical down to the splash screen logos. This remake of Metal Gear Solid's 20-year-old intro is the work of Erasmus Brosdau, a video game art director with credits on games like Crysis and Star Citizen. From the look of things, Brosdau created this intro as a tribute to Metal Gear Solid and series creator Hideo Kojima.
