Make me.
It is so tedious. I read reviews and honestly thought they were exaggerating. But amazingly it was far, far worse than what was reporting.
You barely need your control pad for 3/4 of the entire game. And most of the action happens in the cut scenes too
.
Not a clue!
You're a cnut!
Tedious?!
Shadow Moses in particular was epic.
And then there was this.
Damn I need to play through this game again

That's the spirit!
You liked the original but never played the newer ones?
Why?
They're phenomenal.
I am
Till I get my hands on Deus Ex.
I stopped gaming for a few years, meaning I missed out on a lot of classics.
I've completed MGS and MGS2 in the last couple of weeks. How anybody can't appreciate this masterpiece of a series is beyond me. I'm starting MGS3 tonight.
Keep up the good fight Elvis.
I'm with you Elvis, the whole series has been fantastic and I for one will be purchasing the HD collection when it releases.
I remember playing splinter cell a few years after MGS on the PS1 and thinking to myself, it doesn't even compare.
I used to love the bit where you could see the bird in her knickers if you went into the toilet. Oh, to be 9 and horny.

Nearly finished MGS3. I'd forgotten about the Sorrow bit. Just brilliant, I remember first time round it taking me an absolute age to figure out what you had to do.
MGS2 was the most complicated to understand plot wise
MGS3 was the most emotional one specially with The Sorrow and the Boss' death at the end.
MGS4 really underwhelmed me

Also has anyone on here played Peace Walker? Not had a PSP since it's been released so never got around to playing it, so I'm looking forward to that next month.
I hope it's true. Picking up the HD collection tomorrow so I can finally get around to playing Peace Walker.
HD collection is great, has to be said.
Can't he feck off and do something different?
Why don't you feck off and do something different!
I want to feck off and do something differe... actually I don't, I just want to play MGS4 ( I'm as gay for this series as elvis). Wish they'd release it for Xbox.
Why is MGS1 not a part of this HD collection?
Because it's a PS1 game and would have to be done totally from scratch.
Weaste is right. Though it can be emulated and touched up, it wouldn't fit.
Am I forgiven now Weaste?

How about porting the gamecube one? Twin Snakes? Would it be really that hard? I understand that there might be some legal obstacles due to it being made for the Nintendo but surely if they wanted to they could get around this?
It depends what you want, a HD version? MGS can be downloaded from the store and played as is, PS3 can play PS1 games.
What's this trick that they've pulled with now quite a lot of PS2 games appearing on the Store? Are they just ISO dumps from the PS2 discs, or have they been fiddled with? Because the PS3s without either the EE or GS still can't play PS2 games off disc, but they can play certain games available on the PS Store? Games that suit the software emulator?
They have it's part of the MGS HD collection which came out a couple of weeks ago.
Ah just noticed it's not MGS 4 but MGS Peace Walker
I haven't actually ever downloaded one, but I pressume they are games they know work with the emulator and update the emu to release more.
I hope they are better at it the M$, I have San Andreas for the 360 and it is prone to crashes out and their response is "oh well we warned you it might". Yeah, cheers for that you brainless hacks!
Do you actually 'play' MGS 4?
I thought it was more like a dvd, you know, you watch it till the end of the chapter then press a few buttons and hey presto! Another chapter plays...

How does Splinter Cell compare to MGS?
I used to love the MGS games but have never played any of the Splinter Cell series & quite fancy a new covert ops game.

I prefer Splinter Cell, well the earlier ones anyway.
It's horses for courses though, you should try them. I think the best way to describe the difference is SC has it's roots on the PC thus is more serious, more plausible. MGS are more suited to console (obviously), more arcadey to a degree. Both are decent series though, although mgs4 to me was a joke and the last two Splinter Cells are dumbed down heavily for the fps crowd.

Cool, think I'll pop in past my local cash converters on the way home and see if they have any of the earlier games for the 360.
This is what I did. I skipped the cut scenes and the game was about 2 hours long.
I have never felt so short changed buying a game as this.
That's like buying an action movie and fast forwarding to all the fight scenes and then complaining that it's only 15 mins long.
That's a shit analogy.
But I agree on one thing, it was more like a film than a game, you are right there
I've been waiting for the price of the PS3 collection to come down for a while now, hurry up.
Peace Walker really is a fantastic game.
Also, MGS4 is getting trophy support in August, and Konami are holding a special event on the 30th August for the 25th Anniversery of MGS; there's rumour they'll divulge some information on MGS5.
