Why is it called "Metal Gear Solid " instead of "Metal Gear Solid 3"?

Why is it called "Metal Gear Solid Δ" instead of "Metal Gear Solid 3"? Konami has no problem calling the Silent Hill 2 remake "Silent Hill 2", same with Capcom's REmakes, so what's the deal?

      A triangle has 3 sides. You need to have a high IQ to understand.

      Delta IS the 3rd letter in the greek alphabet, but it has a more common connotation.

      It's over bros, they're changing MGS3.

      So what, is the MGS4 remake going to be MGS□ or something?

      this, probably with plot changes to make the games tie together better too. It'll be a parallel series, i.e. a kind of Metal Gear Gaiden

        it'll be Metal Gear Solid Delta: Guns of The Patriots if they ever get that far
        if the 3make flops they can say it was just a fancy way of saying 3, if it succeeds they'll use it as the moniker for the remake series (as delta is the symbol for change)

      Wouldn't bother me if they did, the game doesn't need a remake anyway, so I'd be fine with them changing things up just for novelty's sake. I doubt the game's going to replace the original for me even if it's 1:1 remake, so it's no big deal to me if they mix things up. With all that said, I haven't played the FF7 Remake so I don't have PTSD from it like others who I'm sure see that as the quintessential remake that is more of a reimagining.

    There's going to be something differentiating it from the original. Some sort of diversion to allow them to spin off the series without people going "MUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH KOJIMAAAAAAAAAAAAA" though they'll do that anyway.
    I'd bet some sort of plot device to better support full on remakes of metal gear 1 & 2 down the line. I don't know if anyone noticed but on their site it doesn't mention MGS3 in the master collection including MG1&2, so I'm thinking it's not going to be subsistence, and will not have them.

          from how I understand it, this thing is tethered to your PS5 and works as a Wii U tablet essentially. It might have Steam Link type capability, but that's basically gonna be a cloud gaming experience

    It's to avoid these two questions and that's it. They aren't "remaking the franchise in chronological order." They want a quick, cheap buck and that's it. The only way they remake the rest is if this somehow does GTA numbers.

    It's Delta because Delta means change or the difference between in math/science, so it's used to indicate the change in Naked Snake to Big Boss. Or the difference between Naked Snake and Solid Snake.
