I played the hell out of the demo until I finally got around to getting the game back in 1999.

FPBP. It was the original moviegame. Some people like to pretend that the phenomenon of Snoy fans creaming their pants over pretentious moviegames didn't start until the PS4. However, MGS proves they've been like that since the very beginning.

...and like all such things, it worked unlike all of its imitators. Just like the ridiculous idiotic formula of Dragon Quest worked and still works when done precisely the way it was created despite the odds, the idiotic non-game that is MGS works because it is a unique synergy between gameplay and movie. It works despite the odds due to the sheer care put into its every stupid aspect. Don't judge the original by its imitators.

I like Twin Snakes, but it takes some weird liberties on the original. Not only is the voice acting worse, the color palette is more muted and the gameplay is vaguely broken because of the MGS2 mechanics being added in, most of the cutscenes now are real dumb. I guess Silicon Knights was really into The Matrix, cuz now for no reason characters are consistently doing back flips in slow mo. Its great in a schlocky kind of way, but if you've played the ps1 game it feels really out of place.
This is like the perfect example of what I mean https://youtu.be/pN3uYRVostg?t=368
