The trailer picks off where Snake Eater left off.
David Hayter, the original voice of the legendary Solid Snake, opens up on the Metal Gear series, discovering the character's iconic voice, and why Snake is still so meaningful to people.
So you want to get into Hideo Kojima’s magnum opus of storytelling before being dragged into his newest trip featuring Norman Reedus and a fetus? There’s no other story-driven video game out there like the Metal Gear series and what better way to prepare for Death Stranding then by playing the games that skyrocketed Kojima to fame.
However, though he might be a master of storytelling in video games, understanding Kojima’s complete vision can be overwhelming.
I hope that you don't drive or reproduce because that's a scary thought. Telling other people they can't enjoy something because you don't find it enjoyable is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard.
Foxhound922, telling other people they can't have an opinion just because it doesn't align with yours is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard! At least we don't have to worry about you reproducing, you'll never get a woman down in your moms basement. (Well not legally anyways)
It's not meant to be played chronologically. If you start with 3 you'll miss a lot of references.
You left out Metal Gear 1&2. The proper chronology is MGS3, MGS5, MG1, MG2, MGS, MGS2, MGS4.
Yeah play the order they were released.
Some people suggest chronologically, but the way certain reveals happen in certain games the narrative was purposely written in a way that it makes most sense to play them in release order. There are certain callbacks or references in MGSV to the first metal gear solid for example. So if you played them in chronological order you will have no idea what those references in V are referring to
Start with Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2 from NES. Then play the Metal Solid series in the order they released.
You can actually access the proper versions of Metal Gear 1 and 2 if you have MGS3 in some form on your device, and those are the canon games. I would recommend playing those first, yes, although MGS1 isn’t a bad jumping on point either. However, the NES games are an interesting curiosity, for sure.
A book of essays examines Hideo Kojima’s sprawling and bewildering video game franchise.
finally a real MGS series for the PSP. this should have been released earlier in order to boost PSP sales, back when there was still a chance against DS.
