Metal Gear

[bbboy21]

Hhmm.....I"m just curious if there are any that not only just like the series but HAS PAID ATTENTINO To the story as well that would be SO cool. ^_^

Well I am pretty sure anyone who has played through any more then one of the games has payed attention. I own and have played through the following.

Metal Gear (NES)
Snakes Revenge (NES)
Metal Gear Solid (PS1)
Metal Gear VR Missions (PS1)
Metal Gear Solid 2 Sons Of Liberty (PS2)
Metal Gear Solid Substance (PS2)
Metal Gear Solid 2 Document (PS2, kind of a cool dvd thing)
Metal Gear Solid 3 Snake Eater

I have to say of all of them I have enjoyed Snake Eater the most. Amazing storyline and awesome characters. I am quite looking forward to a sequal to Sons Of Liberty. And while Kojima is saying very little...you know its gonna happen. As for fav characters...I loved Grey Fox....and The Boss.

I love the Metal Gear games. I've played every Metal Gear game since the NES version came out. But since Metal Gear 2 sadly was never brought over here I had to find the translated ROM of it. Snake's Revenge doesn't count as a Metal Gear game and I wish it would be purged from the memories of all who've played it.

There's just something about this series that's just so darn cool. Snake is the most obvious cool factor in these games but the atmosphere, characters, music, story it's all one big awesome collective piece of gaming goodness. Snake is a major [admin edit: Please watch the language -Shatterheart] but at the same time being someone you can really believe in as a character. Nobody can pull that off but him. Everything in this series feels just so real and believable despite all of the crazy things like walking nuclear totting tanks, shamans with gatling guns, and cyborg ninjas.

I've played MGS 1, 2, 3 and VR Missions. And I just got a Dreamcast disc with a ton of old NES games from the US, Japan, and Europe. That means it's got the good version of Metal Gear. Unfortunately, since that one's Japanese, it's in kanji so I can't read it. The disc also has Snake's Revenge. I played that one for about ten seconds and thought "Man, this really does suck. No wonder so many people hate it." I love the Engrish in Metal Gear, though. Even in the very beginning, Big Boss says "...First try to contact missing our 'Gray Fox'." I laughed out loud. That alone was enough to make me want to play more. Then came "I feel asleep" and "The truck have started to move."

[Mr_Anderson]

substance, it said like over 140 missions! i was like COOL! cause the first one took me like an hour, but then i realized it was mostly VR missions and only 2 big ones. i got confused by the story.

[Htom Sirveaux]

Yeah, you have to play through MGS2 at least two or three times to really understand it. The only thing I didn't quite catch is just how Solidus loses an eye in the Harrier fight with Raiden. How can you get messed up like that when you're in the cockpit of a fighter jet?

The cockpit glass shattered and shards were embedded in his left eye.

and ended up nearly looking like Big Boss and there is a scary resemplance of them @_@

Tried the first one. Didn't like it much. My idea of stealth gaming is the Thief series (1998-2004).

You have to give the game credit for a interactive movie.

I'm personally a huge fan of the Metal Gear series. The postmodern stuff is kinda whacky, but I really love the games. Such a cool series.

I enjoy the stories quite a bit. Cool characters, insane boss battles, and an eccentric Russian cowboy.

MGS3 was the crowning achievement. So....cool. ^_^

It was great seeing Ocelot in MGS3 (though I'm not sure I liked his voice; it doesn't sound anything like the older Ocelot) and watching him develop his taste for torture. But I was kind of hoping for a Psycho Mantis cameo or at least some reference to him, since he had background with the KGB in the Cold War.

[quote="SpoonyBard"]It was great seeing Ocelot in MGS3 (though I'm not sure I liked his voice]

While we don't know Psycho Mantis' exact age it's pretty safe to say he wasn't alive in 1964. He couldn't of been more than 30.

Ug, don't pla

[Yojimbo]

Ug, don't play Twin Snakes.

The original on Playstation had much better voice acting and also developed much more charm and sentimental values.

The remake was literally a remake, the exact same thing only the voice acting was... not as entusiastic.

Dude they took the exact lines from the original and put them in. I have both and it's very easy to tell. There's only a couple lines they that they added in later. And Twin Snakes is fine except for some of the cutscenes, because they weren't directed by Kojima, Ryuhei Kitamura did. The action scenes in TS are alot like in his movies, go figure, in Versus and Down to Hell. Snake wouldn't do backflips all over the place, wouldn't point a gun at somebody because they forgot something, and wouldn't kick frickin missles off course! But that's ok because it's Kojima's fault I mean he obviously approved them... Of course the scenes with the Ninja were awesome because the Ninja is supposed to be like that.

double post

[Fsiphskilm]

I too have both and h

[Yojimbo]

I too have both and have played and beaten both. The Original PSone version had a lot more ... heart and soul put into the voice acting.

LOL, yea snake kicking the missle was a bit, over doing it. I was angry at that.
But the Twin Snakes just did't have the same feel. It wasn't the same, I'm sure a few of voices were done by different poeple other than the original cast, (the original cast being the better of the two)

I was surprized by Twin Snakes being EXACTLY the same as the original Metal Gear Solid. After playing Resident Evil Rebirth for GameCube, i got use to the idea that remaking a game means Changing around the rooms and completely butchering the original. Guess Twin Snakes wasn't like it. It wasn't a remake, but a "Creatively updated Port"

Hey I'm not complaining, i'm a collector.

I'm sure they wouldn't of bothered to rerecord all of the same lines just so they could put it on the GC. It was the exact same cast with a few added lines by a couple of them. IE Mantis reading your memory card, Oceleot telling you not to use a turbo controller. I don't mind that it was an exact port. It had the MGS2 features in it and it looked good on the Cube. I'd rather they keep it that way like you said than mess it up like a Resident Evil port.
