Metal Gear Solid games

Anyone play the MGS series? I own all six PS2 games.
Never played online yet, failed to get broadband.. Anywho, im a European Extreamer.
 
All six PS2-games? Well, if you take it on seriously, there are still only four of them (MGS2, Substance, MGS3, Subsistence)...
Well, besides Subsistence which hasn't been released in Europe *punches Hideo hard*, I played every single one... 'til the end :D (Well, of course I went further than The End in MGS3 *lol* ))
 
I am at European extreme level on Substance and SoL, but I just got to the End and that bastard pissed me off so I went food hunting (but it's all rotten by now...?). Loved all of them oh and btw there were two on PS1 MGS and the virtual missions completed both (loved ninja on virtual missions). Anyone got big boss ranking on SoL/Substance?

I'm a huge MGS fan myself!! But the furthest i can get in any of them is Hard. I do suck XD;;;

But its one of my favorite story lines ever ^^ especially when it comes to video games.
 
Yeah it has the greatist storyline iv ever seen for a series. Everything fits perfect and just... makes you wait to see what happens next. Like MGS4, There is going to be a big surprize! Can't WAIT!!
I play them WAYYY!! to much. I'v beat them each about 5 times...
 
I played MGS2 about 20 times ^_^ MGS3 exactly five times (granting me everything besides the banana costume meanwhile ^_^ ) and MGS1 (Twin Snakes only ;) ) only three times... the tuxedo annoyed me ^_^ Well, I played the GB game over and over... maybe 30 times, though the cardboard box passage sucked...
 
yeah Ac!d is card based.
Thats probably the only reason why I won't get that game.

Other than that I've beaten MS2 and MS3 + Sub on Extreme mode (US).
MS3 Sub was alittle harder to beat on Extreme mode.
Got a crappy rating as well.

Cheers.

I started on very easy on MGS2 which was a big mistake cos it took me like two years to get to Hard/Extreme level. I can complete hard but the breath holding for Raiden really pisses me off.

I have the same problem for Extreme ATM... it's freakin' hard and they should've left that scene out...

@fox: MS? Multiple sklerosis? ^_^
But I want to play MGS3S, too! T_T

Haha, up till hard that part was pretty easy(if we're talking about towards the end where Solidus is choking you). But on Extreme i just couldnt do it! My friend managed too, after hours and days of trying, but only had 1/10 of his health left over to fight the next boss with @_@ since they like, kinda take your rations away i believe. (I had him do most of Extreme for me, since he already did it himself. I just wanted all those Dog Tags!^^)

But, thats where the suber controler comes in! A controler that pushes the button for you!! Use that and chances are, he wont even get past the first bar (meaning it wont even effect your health!). My dad got one like AGES ago, back on the PS. I only used it on extreme though, because my finger wasnt meant for such abuse ;_;

Oh, and i LOVE on on Twin Snakes when Ocalot is about to torture you how he says "Dont even think of using a super remote! I will know!!". Konami caught on XD;;; but my friend had one for the GC so he used it anyways and amazingly Ocalot didnt know ^^
 
Yeah, I'm a big fan of the series. It's been great to speculate the mysteries of the plot with other people.

The best is definitely the first MGS. Nothing can beat the plot, the atmosphere or its visual achievements (the game had jaw-dropping graphics in its time and it's still kinda good looking).

Oh yeah Twin Snakes sucks. It was totally unnecessary and the cutscenes were total crap. Just why?
 
Psycho Mantis is good with the whole control changing thing on PS but my favourites are Solidus, I love fighting only with the HF blade and I recall the first time I did it it took 12 rations and I was only halfway~ish on his life XD!

Second would have to be the Rays which had one big ass glitch, the Rays could bleed somehow. Third is ninja on MGS 1 he's very easy to beat once you know his pattern.

That's a hard question... I'd say Liquid. The atmosphere is just totally awesome.

"Snakee!! It's not over yet!"

That was good but just too easy, I beat him in a near perfect...

~RoaringSasuke (Touch my sig, it's reaching out to you)
 
@Sasuke: Your sig is making these forums break... please make it smaller for the few people in here that don't trust the autosize function :P

@Topic: My favourite Boss'd be... well, The End from MGS3... I got bored the first times I played that, but if you play it the way Snake would (no health cheating for The End before by shooting his wheelchair, no special camo, no thermo goggles), you can get some exiting hours... and annoy your parents with "Goddamn, can't you see my life is in danger right now?" :D
Well, Psycho Mantis is great, though I only know the NGC version, as stated... I was really surprised by him telling me I like SSBM... I mean, what a jerk... I love SSBM! Loser... ^_^
It's a little harder to find a good boss in MGS2, because they simply can't stand the duel with the MGS3 ones I like best 'til now... I guess I like Solidus best (the blade duel), even though Raiden is one of the few guys who absolutely can't handle a blade ^_^ Obviously, he improved 'til MGS4 ^_^ Well, for Solidus... I still have to beat him on Extreme, but I cimply can't beat the breath holding game -.- Solidus is a bitch...
Lastly, for those who now the GB episode, my favourite boss is Viper, the last boss. First, you had to shoot down Metal Gear's Legs so he can't move anymore. Afterwards,Viper jumps off and you had to defeat him by placing claymores on places where you'd think he'd walk over while you had a time limit. It is a damn hard battle every MGS fand should've experienced...
