Anyone else here a fan of the MGS series? i think there brilliant,the characters full of life interacting in a fantastic story also it has one of the best gameplay systems ive ever played on a game.

Personally i like MGS1 the best the characters in that game are all fantastic and the battles have so much tension especially at the end where you fight Metal Gear Rex and onwards to the end of the game.Liquid Sanke is such a brilliant character backed up by the best voice acting skills ive ever heard.eveythign Liquid says just sounds so cruel but cool.

As for the 2nd i like the gameplay mo than the 1st game there really evolved it in the best way possible also the Dog Tags give it great Replay Value.My favourite part is whee you have to dress u as a gaurd and go to find Ames , i spend hours on that bit its so fun sneaking and mucking around with the gaurds,somne of the new cast was a bit weak but solidus was a brilliant nw entrie but the events of MGS2 make it a very enjoyable game.

Now with MGS3 its a Great game which lasts 3 tiems longer than MGS2.the gameplay is more advanced,though i have a problem when a gaurd sees you it automatically goes on alert status,hile on MGS2 the gaurd had to call for back up when he spots you then it goes on alert.I like MGS2's way betterits seems more logical.but apart from that MGS3's gameplay is im proved in every way,for thestealth addicts hey give you a sweet selection of Camos to change intoalong with face paints, theres also the might sniper battle which is on of the best battle ive seen in a game for years.but then for the more whacky rampage players MGS3 have given you a new little toy,THE SHOTGUN.i love this weapon you just run up to enemies and blast them and atch there flying carcass fall down a mountain,one of the most entertaining things ive ever seen in a game.as for the story its fairly goods a bit weaker i think butstill good,i mainly dont like the start of the game with the vituous mission i found it a bit weak,especially on replays.then if you have subsistance you get a whole load of extras like the camera which boosts the intensity of the game,the old games Metal Gear 1 and 2,Boss fights and best of all an online mode :D.
I find the online mode brillaint i think its only open to UK players now but its so much fun.sure you get annoying players and glitches and people who take the gam to seriously (which i find pathetic) but if i see anyoe like that on my team i sort them out :P there are other games in the MGS series like Acid and Portabtle Ops which i havent had a chance to play yet but ill be buying a PSP later in the year so i think ill pic them up.
 
the only MGS played is sons of liberty and find that it is quite enjoyable.

Ive read up about the series and find the story interesting. Guns of the patriots on PS3 looks great

I like all the titles since i find Metal Gear Solid Series to be one of the best series of games ever made!

Metal Gear Solid 3 is my favourite so far...i really loved it the race for survival and the details off the game are great!
 
ive played and completed all of them apart from the psp version ^_^
i must say that euro extreme of mg2 was the hardest but mg3 is my fav ^_^
 
I tried out MGS 2, but mannn I was horrible at it. I'll give it another go here sometime soon, but I was just absolutely horrible at it, lol.
 
best games ever!!!! even better than final fantasy. my favourite was the original but MGS3 was amazing, the way u could eat snakes and stuff

The gameplay on MGS3 was fantastic,i loved the way you could eat animals to for survival,it really added realism to the game,i also loved chucking snakes at the gaurds :P
heres a trick for laughs when you're ment to be dressed up in the scientist disguise to sneak thorugh the other scientists but the aligator mask gon and see what happens when a gaurd catches you ^_^
 
i managed to get stealth on MGS3 i played the whole game without gettin caught by the gaurds, really difficult but easier than trying to get it by shootin all the frog things. MY m8 has my MGS3 i really have to get it back
 
I have played both MGS2 and MGS3 and they are my favorite games of all time with 3 being my personal best.

The stealth element in 3 is far greater then 2 with the addition of the camouflages. Also the Boss is my favorite game character of all time, her mastery of CQC is amazing and the way Volgin backed away from her in fear in the Torture room is brilliant.
 
I am definitely a fan of Metal Gear Solid. I have played MGS, MGS2, and MGS3. Soon, I will play MGS: PO and since I have the Subsistence version of MGS3, I also have MG and MG2: SS. My favorite character is easy to know, he is in my sig. He is Big Boss.
 
I loved them all, except the AC!D ones. But MGS3 was hands down one of my most played games. Along with Resident Evil 4 and Final Fantasy IV.
 
I've never played Resident Evil 4, but I have heard it is a pretty awesome game. I should rent it, or at least borrow it from a friend. Not a very big fan of Resident Evil, well at least not bigger than MGS.
 
Overall BEST Metal Gear Solid game.

OK, Which MGS game is the best? Twin Snakes? Sons of Liberty? Snake Eater? Which one is your favorite. What makes this game your favorite/the best? What could have been made differently to make one better than the other.

My Favorite: Gotta go with MGS1.(this was a hard decesion) >_<
Overall Best: I would have to say MGS2 on that one.

Why is MGS1 my favorite: I like the story for this game the best, also, it's where I started at. Psycho Mantis FTW.

Why do I say MGS2 is the best: This one to me, came off as the best one. Although I like the story for MGS1, this game just seems to have a better developed story. It gets more in depth with the politics, although the characters aren't as well developed as the ones from MGS3 IMO.

What would have made MGS1 and MGS3 better: Nothing. All three games are perfect just the way they are. (Like I said, this was an extremely hard decesion.)

Overall, I say Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, is where it's at.
 
I say MGS 3 because you see how it mainly started with big boss and ocelot.
I would then say MGS 1 because i just love the storyline of this one and who the characters are and their purpose.
I dont like MGS2 compared to the rest of them because it was more confusing and the fact that the colonel was AI/GW and you were talking to him throughout the game was a a bit stupid.
 
Yeah, definetly the first and last are the better ones, although the second is still amazing...it was the most beautiful game out at that moment, let down only by a confusing story which luckily I did follow.
But its main letdown was playing as Raiden, I wanted Snake! Suppose...made me all the more eager to play Metal Gear Solid 3, also because I loved the Cold War background to it.
 
Definitely the first Metal Gear Solid, though I haven't played Snake Eater, or some of the PSP games =/. The game was just better overall than the others. Though Metal Gear Solid for GameBoy Colour was pretty good. Anyone else play that?
