@King Slayer I've been saying this for years now, as cringe as it is kojima told us what would happen in 2002 and mgs4 is the natural course now... oh wait we already have PMC's and now with Afghanistan being taken over by the Taliban. I wonder how many proxy wars will begin.

I used to rush home from 6th grade every single day, pop this disk into my PS2, and re-watch this intro with the volume on max before even playing the game. Not watching this intro was not an option.

As someone who has always avoided stealth games, the MGS series was amazing. I love how tightly designed it’s levels and gameplay were. It also had cool villains and stories.

[@McCaroni_Sup]

Try Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory It's a bit different from MGS as it's pure stealth instead of stealth action. No boss fights, just straight up stealth. I personally love stealth games because I just love the feeling of sneaking around and beating enemies through wit rather than strength. It's a shame the genre is pretty much dead because modern gamers are far too impatient to carefully sneak through a level. Nowadays we only have games with "stealth elements" where the levels are not built around stealth and you're usually better off just going in guns blazing.

Funnily enough, this was my first Metal Gear game. It was also the second game I ever played on the Playstation 2, right behind Wrath of Cortex (Oof). Being the non-English speaker I was, I didn't understand English (of course), so I would get stuck on the Tanker's Engine Room not knowing how to proceed due to the SEMTEX, nor could I proceed past the C4 arc of the Plant Chapter for a very long time. BUT. But. But this freaking intro always kept me coming back regardless. And over time, due to constantly restarting the game form the beginning, the English language-no joke- finally just.. "clicked" in my non-English brain. And when it did? I finally proceeded, and man. What an experience. A surreal one, but an epic & memorable one that will always have a place in my heart.

After playing MGSV, I've been thinking about the series as a whole, and I've come to the conclusion that my favorite in the entire series is MGS2. Why? Well... Every MGS game, (except MGSV), is almost perfect, each one mastering something specific. However, what makes MGS2 so amazing to me is how much it pushed every single limit a game could have. For 2001, its graphics were fucking amazing, to the point that they still hold up relatively well today, its gameplay improved on everything MGS1 had, and of course, it had its story. The story is what's most important in a Metal Gear game, and I think MGS2 has the best in the series. With MGS2, Kojima convinced the entire world that Solid Snake would be the main character, but then, just as the story reached a point of great tension, he unveiled to the world that it wasn't Snake as the main protagonist, but Raiden. While I don't like him as much as Snake, Raiden was absolutely ESSENTIAL to this game's perfection. He provided a way for the player to feel as if they were fighting alongside of Snake, while also being an interesting character in his own right. He was also a method for Kojima to teach us not to believe everything the media tells you, as it can lie and censor the truth; this entire idea is the main plot focus for this game. Not only does MGS2 supply a major twist in the beginning, the entire game itself begins to turn around as you discover the truth of what's going on in the world, who the true villains behind everything are, and how everything in the game was all created to prove how powerful the Patriots were. The Patriots were a perfect villain, unknown and mysterious, their identities never discovered,(until the sequels, but they weren't meant to happen originally, meaning that the Patriots were originally meant to be as mysterious as they were terrifying), yet their logic completely sound and chillingly understandable, too. The other main antagonist, Solidus Snake, turns out to have a good motive, desiring to create the America the Framers wanted. Everything comes together in a series of insanely complex events that leave you wondering who the true heroes and villains were, and how much you'd just seen had really happened. MGS2 is Kojima's true Magnum Opus. MGS1, 3, 4, and PW are all brilliant, but this is where the series was originally meant to end. This is when Kojima was at his most passionate, at his most filled with artistic vision. This is the game that surprises you with literally EVERY turn. This is the game that made you not only question the game itself, but also the world around you; how much of what we see is censored? And if it is censored, how would we even know it was? That's why MGS2 is not only my favorite MGS game, but also my favorite game of all time. MGS2 is proof that video games are not only art, but can take on the highest form of art. They require love, care, and perfect planning; they require a vision of the world around it, they need great music, great visual art, beautifully-woven stories. MGS2 has all of this. All of the MGS games (except MGSV) have this. But out of all of them, MGS2 challenges the player's mentality the most, makes them question the most. MGS2 is something everyone who considers themselves a fan of great art, literature, or video games should play; its controls may be a BIT wonky at times, but when you get past that, you'll find one of the greatest, if not THE greatest game ever made.

[@IlMasso22]

finally someone who thinks the same way as me! Btw, Raiden si a wonderful character, just think of the conversation with rose a out his room! He`s an idiot, especially in the first part of the game, but then, the more you get into the story, you really start to appreciate him if you understand him

[@baroquechevalier8516]

[@mistersirrsauce]

MGSV is underrated.But I can agree with you

[@vertickly]

dont know why you shit on MGSV so much, ive played every etal Gear game and beat them all as well apart from portable ops. to say MGSV doesnt have amazing music, a beautiful world and the story to wrap it all up to bring you into the eyes of young snake in outer heaven. While MGS1 will always be my favorite, the "Solid" series was incredible, individually and together.

[@thekeyandthegate4093]

MGSV is great. Idk why you contrarian dumbasses have to shit on the most modern installment of every game franchise ever, but the gameplay of MGSV alone places it up there with the best of the series in terms of mastery, just mastery of gameplay rather than narrative. People like you are the same people who'd shit on MGS2 back in the day.

If I had the means and Kojima's blessing, I would make MGS VI: Full Circle. It would be a reimagined remake of Metal Gear and Metal Gear II: Solid Snake. Basically play as Solid Snake during his first two adventures, made in the style of MGSV standards. Maybe have a short prologue segment where you play as Gray Fox.

The important thing is to always make a franchise, but know when too call it a day. MGS is without a doubt one of the top 10 franchises of all time. each story has a new twist and always has me on the edge of my seat. But there comes a time when you have to quit while you're ahead.
