Everyone forgot about Metal Gear Acid?

I mean MGS1 was good and all and I love it for what it is but the other ones just improved over it so much. I've played every MGS and replayed MGS1 like over 10 times but I have to say that the others have been better. (Except for 2)
Also, playing MGS1 without Radar was a fucking bitch. It was fun though. Made the game so much more exciting. Radar made the game piss easy.

Not Canon so. No.
SNAKE'S REVENGE?!
That torture scene... I think that's one of the only times I've ever raged hard at a video game. When I finally beat it I cried manly tears of joy.
I want to play MGS 1, but I don't have a PS1 memory card, and I can't keep the PS2 on that long.

Metal Gear series will always have a special place in my heart, I remember countless hours spent on this.
I finished MGS 2 through 4 but I need get my hands on a copy of MGS1.... Emulators and everything else don't work. Hell, are you even able to beat Psycho Mantis on an emulator?
In my opinion, MGS2 had a great philosophical point of view but lacked gameplay wise; MGS3 had a beautiful story along with amazing boss sequences; MGS4 tied all the games together well, but the boss fights weren't as fun... But I loved fighting Ocelot though.

False.
Now, if you mean MGS3, then yeah.
Out of all games, this will always be my favorite.
Also I would always go into alert mode and fight just to hear the music.

I would still own MGS3 if I hadn't given it back to that damn wigger who stole my beloved Bully!

(I still remember how I was slammed in the face with a brick wall of nostalgia with the Shadow Moses level the first time I played Metal Gear Solid 4.)[/QUOTE]
I fucking cried at that scene. I was like 7 or 8 when I played that game. So many memories came rushing back, not of playing MGS1 when I was a small child but also memories from early childhood. :smith: Life was better before.

MGS4 isn't hard but its such a pleasure to play through, then i burst into tears.
finished the game just using knife ( except bits where you specifically couldn't )
[editline]24th February 2011[/editline]
I got one of the very few surviving rare special editions of MGS3 apparently i got told anyway with like 6 discs worth of features.
also i can't really say which i prefer because i fucking love them all ( except 2 which was good but not top dog )

I finished this game in 2 days.
[QUOTE=Henry Townshend;28242412]When they announced the title of it being "Peace Walker" me and my brother laughed at the name for a few minutes straight. It's such a silly name.[/QUOTE]
When you find out what it means and what it's applied to it's a perfect codename.
These games are fuckin awesome, I'm buying a new PS1 and 2 specifically for the first three MGS games. Kojima is truly a genius.

In the UK that version of subsistance isn't rare at all. all our versions had all three discs, were signed by kojima, and 20% of its features were in our main MGS3.
You know, The writing is cheesy, the acting is corny, the bosses are pretty ridiculous and there's only really one path to follow with no other real ways to take on any of the situations other than stealth.
And I played through it 3 fucking times and still get the urge to play through it again every once in a while, and I love every second of it. Seriously, none of the other MGS games had this effect on me. Maybe it's because it felt like it was deliberately trying to be cheesy (And I'm a huge sucker for cheesy movies and games), Maybe it's because I'm just blinded by nostalgia, but goddamn is it good.
I think MGS2 is vastly underrated.
And again, does anyone know about the hidden ghosts in MGS1? I could never find them all.

agreed. It's the one game i ALWAYS play when i restart playing my ps2/original Xbox. Substance is the BEST MGS EXPANSION EVER
The alternative VR missions were amazing on substance, my favourite was the one where you had to sneak past the giant gurlukovichs
Am I the only one who managed to beat all torture scenes in one shot without dying?

I cried when i finished MGS2. I was around 7-8 by then so i didn't understood English so good back then. But the melody and footage made me shed a tear.

And now to blow your mind with the full version. Policenauts is great.
I just played MGS 2 again. I just can't get over how HORRIBLE the writing is. It is so bad, it physically
hurts my brain. I am at the beginning of the oil rig and so far these things already raped my mind:
It starts out fairly decent. But then Fucking ocelot 'I am posessed by my alternate personality from a transplanted arm' comes in and fucks up the tanker bit. Then we get to raiden who is a top secret super agent, yet doesn't know jack shit of what is going on (there are better ways to explain the story than to make everyone explain everything to a batshit retarded protagonist, hideo). Oh and why is his fucking girlfriend there to support him? I thought this was top secret super agent stuff we are doing here? She doesn't even try to act professional.
Than Fox-die or whoever walzes in, terrorist who are not terrorists because they terrorize for the government to train their special forces but when their leader died they got very sad and decided to become actual terrorists. yeah....
Vamp... seriously? He moves and talks like his dialoge was writen by a 16 year old goth kid. Fatman... he built a nuke at the age of ten? really? did a ten year old write this? Fortune... "Blah blah, life is shit why can't anyone kill me?" Just jump off the rig you fucking whore. If you are so annoyed by living, where did you get the motivation to do all this terrorist shit? And they already introduced my favourite part, this laleluloli-conspiracy shit.
I get chills down my spine when I even think of what is yet to come, like the BUT EVERYONE WAS AI ALL ALONG twist or when we enter fucking "throw away your brain" and naked raiden runs trough cyberspace and suddenly fights infinite metal gears in something that looks like a fucking acid trip.
What is wrong with this game? MGS 1 was so great and this is such horrible bullcrap. Anyone know
what went wrong here? It could have been so great, because the gameplay is really decent. But if every
character acts so far-fetched and silly, you don't care for anything that goes on, because you are disconnected
from everything and the sad scenes just become so forced and unhuman to you.
But I'm gonna play it anyway. Just because I crave a MGS expericence and I can play MGS 1 in my sleep.

Agreed. MGS2 actually makes me feel isolated and seperate from humanity. as if everything is false and a lie. As such i mash A and Y whenever i play it on the original Xbox. Jesus christ they had some mad acid back then. I am just pleased MGS3 and 4 resolve 90% of it.

Nah. it's just hard to do them without wankers cramp. I had to mash circle against my teeth at one point.
I heard someone used a vibrator at one point. Also ocelot DOES shoot you for using a turbo controller.

[QUOTE=H4ngman;28256649]rant[/QUOTE]
The only REAL bullshit in MGS2 were the Ocelot posession and the "Lady Luck" idiocy. I thought the narration was pretty good, Raiden is basically a lost greenhorn with no data on the mission so it shouldn't be surprising everyone has to explain everything to him.
But I agree the whole game is just a weaboo fest unlike the other games in series.
Which MGS games were published on PC except for MGS1?

This essay makes a very convincing point that MGS2 is an extremely elaborate troll by Kojima. MGS2 is less about the plot itself and more about the whole game being a postmodern statement about identity.
Also, say what you want about silly dialogue and characters but [sp]Emma's death was fucking sad.[/sp]
