>>2328004
MGS 2 was shit but MGS was the shit

>>2327975
No it's in fact better than both of those games. MGS3 is an overrated game. Even though it's the best MGS game.

>>2328004
Why did you put mgs3 so low, may I ask?

>>2328015
Really? I mean I enjoyed MGS 3 more than MG 2 I guess It's just because I beat MGS 3 first and like Big Boss more then Snake

MSX.emu Free, works perfectly.

this

Ghost Babel is really good too and is pretty heavily inspired by this game. I think it was basically Kojima trying to get this game into more hands while telling a different and neat story with it. Although I think MGS borrows a lot from Solid Snake too. Specifically the long stairway thing and then the rappelling off the building thing.

>>2328015
>Even though it's the best MGS game.
No, no it is not.

>>2328004
Your tastes are very similar to mine.

>no mention of Twin Snakes ITT, even though it surpassed the original and is better than most other Metal Gear games

>>2328397
>even though it surpassed the original
Nope.

>>2328397
I forgot that existed but yes it was amazing

>this /v/-tier level of discussion about which Metal Gear are shitty, most of which are pass /vr/'s cutoff point.
Metal Gear is overrated anyway. The series went to shit with MGS2 and they never quite managed to salvage it. Everyone knows Snatcher is Kojima's one true masterpiece.

>>2329252
I think they like the idea of Snatcher. But the the fucking game is so fucking derivative of movies. it is really just blade runner done as a VN. Also I think most of those people know about it and read it and not played it.

>>2328397

Not /vr/.
Don't tell /v/ that, they'll get mad. Even if its gameplay, tone and story are all much more similar to that of latter Metal Gear games.

>>2329302
He probably meant Japanese creators who worked with him like Ryuhei Kitamura and Project Itoh. Snatcher has a huge cult following in Japan. It was pretty heavily advertised when it was released on 8-bit computers and was one of the more successful PC Engine titles.

>>2329304
I don't think you understand the issues people have with Twin Snakes.

>>2329952
missile surfing!

>>2329956
The cut scene direction is unnecessarily exaggerated, but no.

TTS's biggest problem is the bad design.

Hey yo guys in TTS you can defeat Ocelot in a matter of seconds

THAT + all that KUNG FU shit, OMG guys

BEST. REMAKE. EVER.

LOLO

>>2329965
please explain

>>2329981
>take everything about MGS1
>add in first person shooting
Makes the game EZ mode.
Or so I heard, and I would imagine, considering most rooms give you a sight of all the guards in an area.
I have a copy but haven't been assed to play it.

>>2329985
you can't really shoot people if you're going after a bad boss rank anyway

>>2329981
MGS2's mechanics worked in MGS2 because the cramped level design and bosses were made with all of it in mind. But TTS is just MGS2 mechanics with MGS1 level design and bosses. It trivializes everything.

>>2329989
And thats why TT has the tranq gun as well.

>>2329991
oh.

>>2327975

This game had a ton of stupid gimmicks, but the owl was far and away the absolute stupidest part of it.

>>2327975
im actually waiting for this game in the mail along with mgs3.

>>2330007
It does have some dumb sections, but I wouldn't say it had a "ton" of them.

It's an awesome game, though, all the same.

>>2330007
What does the owl do?

>>2330386
It doug


In seriousness, to make the guard think it's night already

>>2328015
MGS3 is way too easy compared to the other games. Sneaking around is a cake walk, not that it matters anyways since it's so easy to land kills.

>>2329985
I think all the criticism about the addition of first-person aiming in TTS is a bit overblown, outside the Ocelot boss battle. Yes, it's easy to knock out all the guards out in a room with darts to their heads, but you'll also have to deal with the reinforcements if they fail to report after a while.

If anything, the biggest problem with TTS is the fact that you have to deal with the improved enemy behavior from MGS2, but the MGS1 level designs doesn't give you as many places to hide as MGS2. I noticed that enemies in TTS tend to respawn from off-screen during alert phases, which is quite a bitch. Also, the introductory sequence is a bitch to get through in TTS on Hard or Extreme.
