Favourite MGS

OK, mine in order:

3rd - Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. It's not that I don't like this game, I just never really liked playing as Raiden. I found his mission tedious and boring, and constantly going to a node to update your radar was a bad inclusion. There's only one area I liked of his mission, and that was

right near the end, when you're fighting alongside Snake.

Snakes mission on the Tanker didn't last long enough, I thought it should have been at least 3 or 4 times as long, but there you go.

2nd - Metal Gear Solid 3; Snake Eater. A tough choice for 2nd spot, but this one just gets it. I thought this was a magnificent game, and I enjoyed every minute of it. The cut-scenes were gripping to watch, and were crucial if you closely followed the storyline. I didn't like fighting The Pain, the lizard guy running around and jumping from tree to tree, because on higher difficulty levels he was probably the hardest boss to beat. All the other fights were relatively easy.

1st - Metal Gear Solid. The first MGS game I bought back in '99 when it came out, and it is the most memorable. It was full of moments you just cannot forget, I recently went back to it about 2 months ago and I remembered pretty much every cut-scene, every tone of voice, every set-piece, and most of the codec scenes after about 4 years of not playing it. It's just stuck with me. The bosses were the most varied so far IMO, and the best, and the music was also good, not necessarily the best in the series though, that belongs to MGS2.

^ It's a very 'Niche' genre, not a lot of people like the long cut-scenes and slow, methodically paced action, which is a shame - they're missing out on one of the greatest games series of all time. Most of the British gaming public are into either 'Urban' games, or 'Movie tie-ins', which shows they have no thought process at all when it comes to buying games.
