Favorite Metal Gear game(s) and why?

[[ T h e B o s s ]]

Greetings MGS fans! What's your favorite game in the series? And before you ask! https://youtu.be/2sGxUkubKjg I own every single one (including the spinoffs) but mine personally is MG2: Solid Snake - because of it's especially dark atmosphere and narrative/thematic elements which were mostly unheard of in games at the time. (Kojima didn't even want to make it!)

How about you?

I'm still upset we didn't get the original Metal Gear Solid Rising.

maybe because it's not what platinum want and get into? i mean they are mastermind of hack and slash games and their bayonetta game is the most fun game they have ever make. but maybe mgs r is still consider as stealth than hack and slash. something platinum are not into

oh and i forgot about hardware limitation. especially that it's ps3 games

question is. is mgs4 or mgr that is the last canon story? ik it's a spin off but is it relevant to the main series?

I might be off by a year or two, but it's roughly:

S3: 1964/5
PW: 1974
GZ: 1975
TPP: 1984
MG1: 1995
MG2: 1997
MGS: 2005
MGS2: 2007/9
MGS4: 2014
MGR: 2018

You can tell MGR Tales place after MGS4 because Sunny is older.

Eh

From the trailer it kinda looked like crap tbh. The only reason MGR worked is that it was snickering under its breath the whole time.

I'd say MGS3, but Peacewalker/Portable Ops were great handheld titles and Acid 2 was solid for a game not 100% made by Kojima

Check these out, they're pretty eye-opening.

I'd love to have seen a decked-out mercenary Chico in MGSV or a game where Raiden saves Sunny from the Patriots but... Ah, such is life.

Anyone who says Rising or MGSV has probably only played those two 100%. which is really sad... They gotta play the rest of them!

i've played all of them. after V, i got a ps3 and got the MGS Legacy Collection and played the rest of the series.

2. MGS V is an unfinished game. The final third was canceled. This doesnt mean anything tooo major as whats there is still incredible... but yeah. MGS V is a joke honestly in comparison to the rest of the series. If your jaw drops at the sound of that... yeah, allow me to make it EXTREMELY CLEAR YOU MUST PLAY THE REST OF THIS GODLY SERIES.

MGSV is finished. The unfinished idea is just a meme and a gross misunderstanding of the extra stuff that was released with the Day One version of MGSV.

All the MGS games are good, MGS3 is good but not the best. MGSV is the best one.
MGS3 has one of the simplest stories as well: The Boss is a double agent, and Naked Snake has to take her out. Weak sauce.

MGS3 has crappy controls too and no online coop component either. People like it because it's the simplest.

I dunno about that one.

It really seems like Konami pulled the plug prematurely so Kojima had to do the best he could. Which is pretty tragic if true. But hey, we still got Death Stranding and Kojipro is independent now.

Kinda makes you wonder if Konami would bend the knee and work something out since they're a sinking ship.


But I doubt it.

Do you know what you're seeing in that youtube video?

Phantom Episode 51 was released as part of the MGSV: Phantom Pain Collector's Edition specifically for the Ps4. It is just bonus content, like what some movie studios do with Blu-Ray special editions.

Thematically, it makes no sense to include it into the game. Storywise, it makes no sense to include it as part of the game.
It wasn't meant for the game at all.

…I've only played Revengeance, and I hated it. In part because the camera is the real antagonist of the game, in part because the controls being optimized for console and not PC because that's how devs like Platinum Games and From Software roll. Not buying a controller to play a game on PC, much like how I'm not buying a console to play one game.

Also doesn't help that the resolution options are hot garbage, though considering the dev it doesn't surprise me.

Has an alright soundtrack though, which was made by the same guy who worked on Toontown. Also it proved to me once and for all why I shouldn't give Hideo Kojima my money, so there's that.

All I'm saying is that he should work at Ubisoft, because he sure as ♥♥♥♥ loves Tom Clancy.

Oh, please. You can get good quality PC gaming controllers for less than $30.

Now I'd be the first PC gaming snob to say that people who use a controller for shooting games are perverts, but there are still plenty of games that need a controller. Like most 3rd person action games.

The Devil May Cry collection supports keyboard, but Mavis Beacon herself would have trouble juggling those keystrokes.

I'm not spending money on something I'd only use with one game. Much like I'm not spending money on something that I'd only use to play one game. You, someone I vehemently dislike, get this explanation because Mavis Beacon is something I think should be a mandatory part of the curriculum due to how useful it is.

You could always use that gaming controller to play "Shower with your dad simulator" you know.
