EDIT: As stated in the intro, Portable Ops and Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance have questionable canonicty to the Metal Gear Saga. When asked in an interview in 2014, Kojima's quote on the matter was: "In terms of the overall storyline, it's part of the saga but in terms of the small details, it's a little, it would appear to be a little off from the main story." By this, it seems Kojima considers the games he produced but didn't write/design in their own category, but he has never outright said they aren't canon. This is why I state to take them with a grain of salt in the intro. My including them in the main saga portion of the video is not me making any kind of claim to their canonicty, and you can continue believing whatever you want.
With that out of the way, what would you like to see me cover next?
Assassin's Creed!
F.E.A.R.
Drakengard and Nier in order
Halo? or Dark Souls?
Legacy of kain
God I love how Ocelot is literally just that one guy who says / does some dumb shit then pretends like it was all intentional. Absolute agent of chaos that I love
He's the best character, because of his flaws he is so human you can't not relate to his kooky emotional ways. He is just like his mother lol truly, and that's great for the story. Snake is like his mentor and father figure - there is rivalry but respect as well.
Snake refuses to kill Adamski because he is saving the world for the younger generation - that's him! And Ocelot knows he is learning from the very best and seems just grateful to be in the thick of it. I would have loved to have seen, as Kojima's final PS game...
*Adamski : From 1955-1965* a sort of matching timeline of what Adamski is up to during the rest of the MGS canon. An adventure combat game, where sneaking is minimal and most of the time is cool gunfights.
After all, he was literally born in chaos(D-day)
@@rithvikmuthyalapati9754 omg he was
Ocelot is like Majima, they have the hots for the player character, and just do whatever hoping to get a reaction, the main difference being Ocelot doesn't hide in a giant paper-mache traffic cone.
@@Jonnyg325hit that cardboard box acceleration technique
I like how it started sort of realistic, then hinted at some spiritual elements and advanced technology, and suddenly;
“Then the Pain with his army of bees arrived.”
That like the whole point of MGS
@@TheMrNomadus This! So much THIS! I can't even...I'm LITERALLY SHAKING!
Jerry Seinfeld and his army of bees
Nothing beats waiting for the single greatest sniper in history to die of old age though.
"it's just like one of my japanese animes!" - otacon
I've never seen a storyline that tows the line between realistic and bat shit insane so beautifully.
The games show the horrors of war and how love can bloom on a battlefield then you have to fight a man who can control bees
you ever see prison break lol?
@Dylan_Stankewicz it's like the movie airplane
i like that Ocelot isnt above taking an enemies advice. Snake tells him a revolver would better suit him, so he starts using revolvers. only issue is that he didnt train with them long enough to get used to the lower round capacity, which he then makes up for by carying multiple revolvers
Modern problems require modern solutions
the fastest way to reload a revolver is to switch to another revolver.
"Its faster to switch to your pistol"
@@Rebel3000 😆
Ocelot is my favourite MGS character, I much prefer him to even David Hayter's Snake most times. He just seems like his flaws are more relatable. Snake hasn't ever really shown flaws or weaknesses only obedience or sedition based on situational awareness.
Snake is an interesting supersoldier, Ocelot is an interesting man.
You have created the rosetta stone of MGS lore, in a such a clean, succinct, and subtly creative way. This is truly a gift
This is high praise and I really appreciate it
Do Halo series or Infamous series please I would really like to see this
Indeed. Masterwork.
@@SuggestiveGaming consider cover of breath of fire series? bloody roar? activision's failed attempts at publication genre outside of their expertise like guardian crusade?
There is already a full website for the metal gear timeline. This is basically the video version of it.
I don’t think people understand the amount of time and research it took to make this video. This is truly special. Thank you for making this video
I very much appreciate that recognition. Thank you 🙏
@@SuggestiveGaming thank you so much for the reply! Keep up the amazing work!
@@SuggestiveGaming seriously great stuff I'ma sub
I never played Metal Gear and agree.....
I never knew how fast Metal Gear went from a James Bond game to a cyborg throwing nuclear bipedal tank

The story of Metal Gear can kind of just be summed up as “everyone betrays each other”
AKA The Big Show style of storytelling
Dude did the world a favor with this he should get a medal for his dedication and patience. He deserves all the subs he can get.
Not just a medal... a medal gear.
These guys did what even Hideo Kojima couldn't do. What a couple of heroes
I really enjoyed this video, but I'm curious as to what you're referring to that "Kojima couldn't do." You mean presenting the entire story in a cohesive manner? If that's the case, I feel the need to clarify that it's not that Kojima couldn't do it, but rather wouldn't want to. His games aren't just about telling a story, but rather utilizing the medium of video games to immerse the player and convey messages from a unique perspective. There is a lot of ambiguity which is intended, especially given the themes of information control throughout the narrative. The story and the events themselves or the "timeline" are really only about one-half of the Metal Gear experience
@@HyperDefective I'm sorry to burst your bubble after you wrote that informative and well thought out reply. But it was just a running joke on how the timeline is in complete disarray when it comes to the events and when they happened according to when the game came out.
@@GarageHaruo Oh lol well in that case, yeah that's definitely true
*He should do a complete history of the timeline of MGS fandom.*
Now _that_ really would be something...
Imagine if David Hayter did the entire 6 hour narration
It's so interesting how Hideo Kojima used real history, combining it with book lore, movie lore, other games lore, and his own masterful storyline, and wove it all together into this masterpiece. I swear the MGS series has more Easter eggs, and wierd connections than anything I've ever seen, hundreds of them in each game‼️
When I was a kid I read the entire MGS4 database not knowing anything about the real life history. A few years later in high school I aced my US History class because I literally learned everything from MGS.
...and other things that, to no one's surprise, never happened
@@muienpantaipr6929I mean yes, there was no "Who was Olga Gurlukovich?" question on the test, but as far as Cold War history went, I was more than prepared. Not to mention the war is Zanzibar that even literally my histroy teacher didn't know as much as I did
2:00:50 “leaving Skullface to wonder ‘WHOOOOOOSE’ lust for revenge could be so powerful” LOL. This part really made me laugh. Had to rewind a few times.
6 HOURS OF METAL GEAR?!?!?!?!?! GIVE THIS DUDE A MEDAL!!!!!

Award him the title of Big Boss
Not yet, Snake, it's not over yet
FOX..........DIE
@@Essex_Menace he has surpassed the big boss as such he must be titled the ultra boss😑
I've listened to retellings of this story so many times, and yet I always tune in for someone else's version when I see it. This one is perfect
Same. Never enough Metal Gear.
Same, can never get enough.
I always seem to pick up on something new every time I listen. Everyone has a different take or focus on different stuff but he did a comprehensive recap.
I simply subscribed because you had the audacity and sanity to post a 6 hour long MGS lore video when no one else would ♥️
Same
Exactly lmao 😂
"OTACON reveals that he loves her, so she asks for her gun" BRILLIANT
"Oh this character is kinda cool, I like them"
10 minutes later...
"After saying their heartful, tearful and heart wrenching goodbye, they die a painful and gruesome death"
I came back here five days after I finished this masterpiece to thank you for it.
You polished the continuity of the story, and even made it more cohesive. Not all timelines can do this, sometimes it just reinforces incongruities and shows the helplessness of it all.
At least in my mind, MGS was somewhat fragmented with all Kojima's (and team) playful misdirections and weird solutions to a plot that took so long to achieve its final form.
Extremely rewatchable!
The definitive afterword to the epic Metal Gear Solid.
5/5
This means a lot to me, thank you for saying it
This video being shorter than the entire watch length of the MGS4 cutscenes is really impressive. Props for being able to condense so much information while not skimping on the details.
It's amazing how good MGSV can be if it's just condensed down into a straight forward narrative and not a handful of cutscenes with little dialog and most of the story and exposition being but into cassette tapes.
@L Theres an ongoing rumor that Sony is trying or interested in buying some of Konami's series from them including Metal Gear, Silent Hill and Castlevania. Probably little to any validity in it, but I do wonder if thats something I would want.
@@The_Rage_Kage lets hope it turns out that way
@@The_Rage_Kage It would mean exclusivity for all of those franchises to the Playstation most likely which wouldn't be fun to deal with
@@Espartanica Why would that be the case? Sony releases on PC. Unless you're specifically talking about consoles I guess.
@@joujou264 Detroit Becomr Human. Uncharted. Bloodborne. The Last Guardian. Shadow of the Colossus. Death Stranding. Etc
It usually takes years for the big name exclusives to carry over if they're gonna be on PC at all.
I love how the story can shift from a psychic ghost to the assassination of John F. Kennedy without missing a beat
This is amazing. The different speakers help break up the monotony, the editing and footage used fit flawlessly with the story and the time line at the bottom is a great touch. 6 hours wasn't long enough
I am so sad we will never get another part of this series by Kojima ever again.
I absolutely love these masterpiece games. MGS using real life events in the story is what made me a fan.❤
game's storyline has finished in mgs4, everything else is just going deeper and deeper in between mgs3 and mgs4. Lore is deep enough and it would be better to create a new franchise than continuing metal gear.
OMG! Thank you sooo much for this!!! This is my fav game series of all time and I’m so glad you did it chronologically too cause like you said it’s MORE confusing if you don’t! Can’t wait to watch this over and over!! Thanks again!!
that's usually the case, yeah x)
Release order for blind playthroughs, chronological for organizing the story
You should honestly be praised - this is one of the best (if not THE best) MGS lore videos ever created. Only Kojima-sama himself could have done better. Wow, thank you for this incredible amount of work🙏
The only timeline video that hasn't confused me more than I already was about Metal Gear. This is some of the finest work I've ever seen. 10 out of 3 stars
Wow, just found this channel while searching for nothing, this is such a fantastic resource guide on everything MGS and your catalogue of other game series looks amazing! Your channel just became my new obsession. Rock on!
Aw yeah! Hope you enjoy the rest!
It warms my heart to know that MG is so epic and legendary that people are STILL going to such lengths in it's honor. You're the Man, Suggestive.
An entire timeline of Metal Gear, detailing EVERYTHING in the series in consistent order, as well as explaining all the non-canon stuff too? Hell yeah!
I recently got into the Metal Gear series as a friend gifted me MGS5 for Christmas for PC. I only played MGS1 for a few hours, got up to africa in MGS5 before stopping, and only completed MGR. Playing through 5, I'm loving the series. Listening to this video at work to keep the night shift entertaining. Thank you so much for helping me understand the chronology of this insane story
Dude, I love how MGSV literally left me with a phantom pain. I still play it just to “remember.”
Sincerely, Long-time metal gear fan holding out for additional titles.
It’s so awesome that you covered the entire timeline. I grew up playing Metal Gear game (even the original Metal Gear and PSP games), but never got the opportunity to play MGS4 since it was a PS3 exclusive. It looks like a true masterpiece with amazing callbacks to its predecessors and it wraps up the Solid saga perfectly.
Thanks for making a coherent synopsis of the entire timeline.
If you have the money ebay is a good place to get a ps3 and the game I just ordered mgs4 for $10 and free shipping
This was absolutely amazing. I never would of known that metal gear survive actually had a competent story. Also, Jesus Christ this is one complicated timeline.
My husband loves these games. He's finally talked me into watching him play/watch videos to understand the story and holy moly this is a lot! Thanks for making this video it's helping me understand all the little things I've missed because there is just too much in this series!
Youre a real one
Watching this because I just bought Phantom Pain and Ground Zeroes with no prior knowledge of the series at all and I didn't know there were supernatural elements to the game and didn't realize they were all fully connected so this is an awesome video to get me caught up
Six hours?! You're pretty good
*finger guns*
In all serious, that was a hell of a work you did. Good job
@Game Trade Gregg ❤️❤️
Mad respect for including Portable Ops and Rising in the canon entries. Many people dismiss those as being canon just because Kojima couldn't slap their name on them everywhere despite them being canon.
Only some of them like Snake's Revenge and Survive are truly not canon (or alternate continuity?)
Well, at least we got some backstory about Roy Campbell before Shadow Moses Incident.
@bfk23 Yeah, who knows what happens next to Raiden... If only they made another game about him, but... Yeah.
I choose to believe that Port Ops isn't canon because in that game Big Boss is just given the idea of a metal gear and outer heaven AND the resources to fund and employ it from Jean. He's also told his future by the little girl psychic and her alternate self.
It takes away a lot of Big Boss' autonomy in the universe because all the stuff we thought he built up himself was just GIVEN to him by the lamest boss in the series. It almost felt fanfiction levels. "My oc villain Jean had the first REAL Metal Gear and was a SUPER DUPER psychic. He also inspired Big Boss to make Outer Heaven! AND my other super Psychic Ursula and whatever her sister's name tell him about Solid and Liquid Snake!"
And as a cherry on top, they took Frank Jeager's backstory and made to where he was ALWAYS a ninja instead of being made one by Para-Medic Dr. Clark. Apparently that was all Jean too. Just gave him everything and the kitchen sink.
@@xacmashe3852 Metal Gear Solid 4, Peace Walker, and even Metal Gear Solid 5 in one of Ocelot's tapes both referenced Portable Ops in their own ways contradicting your claim
Do they though? Got any specific citations cause I’m not sure that’s true.
Finally after 20 years of playing MGS I understand something
Never played a single metal gear game, and it's a pleasure to watch the entire video, which has thought me the narrative of the entire franchise (makes me more curious in playing one title). Thank you so much for the hard work and commitment.
Wow, 6 hours of my favourite games series chronological story explanation/retrospective. Thank you so much for this, I am definitely going to enjoy every second of this.
Thanks! Excellent work. I hope the work you put into this, help to make this video reach 1 million + views. It's certainly deserving of such a milestone.
Thank you so much that means a lot!
Dude whilst I absolute love this and am watching all of it again; I don't think you will get to a million likes as it's so long - barely anybody has the time or commitment for all that.
However, if you were to cut it into a series, and release one every wed and sat at 7pm = say an eight part series, 25 mins per ep .... then I think each separate video would _very quickly and easily_ get a million plus *each* . Just cater to the mass market a bit more and you're looking at a real winner.
First you should probably get a sponsor arranged and maybe even related MGS merch. But yeah this amount of work on the mastercopy (this video) can be churned into a bunch of new content that drives your popularity as well as brings new people and cash back to you.
I mean for the amount of time you must have spent - it's actually sat there ready to go lol you could definitely afford to spend more time and money strategising this as you could even enrich your brand with the widened appeal. This amount of work coupled with passion and talent, man you can do anything. God bless, and best of luck!
_edit_
I wanted to put this with the donation but it was too long! I would love to see more stuff like this, Kojima games and beyond. I watch a lot of stuff from a tiny pool, but they're all paid :) It's totally worth it to see more great content like this. Really, it's fantastic work. You should be damn proud.
Man the End must have had a crazy efficient head if Quiet has to walk around half naked for the photosynthesis to work
She doesn't have to. You can shoot her.
He *is* bald
@@ryanspencer9602 yea but its still less skin
If I had to come up with a reason I’d say it maybe has something to do with the End’s reduced heart rate but the way the parasites work was most definitely retconned because Hideo wanted to sexualize Quiet.
@@darndavid7569 If you listen to the cassette tapes by Code Talker, he explains how the SKULLs Unit and Parasite abilities work and they're basically the same as Quiet's. So considering the SKULLs don't fight in bikinis then you'd be right in saying Kojima just wanted to sexualise Quiet
At first I thought this video was just a livestream when I saw how long it is. But man, you really covered all the lore and actually made a 6 hours long video full of MGS story, I love you
Have loved this series since i 1st played MGS2. Didn't realise it was 35 years old though! Remember spending hours playing MGS2, 3 and 4. Thank you so much for this SG!
P.s. I hope this isn't a bad thing but your retrospectives are so soothing and relaxing to watch I use them to help me fall asleep. Is that weird? I really do love these videos I promise!
it's hard for people to find videos soothing enough that they could sleep to them, i suppose you just found yours
As always, stunning work. Thank you for tackling such a convoluted series in an easy to follow method. Keep up all the awesome work!
I watched this as a non metal gear fan lol and I don't have any idea about this metal gear but im 2 hours in and I enjoy it, hopefully to finish this without skipping
This series was a huge part of my childhood. Its awesome to have alllll the deep lore in one video thank you❤
this deserves so much more views, so does your channel as a whole. a six hour breakdown thats real dedication right there.
I surprised that you didn’t lose your sanity while making this video, but either way, this video rocks, keep up the good work
I agree! This one would have been a doozy to create in general!
Probably just some interesting dreams and possibly waking nightmares of shit monsters
A masterpiece and a joy for the true OG metal gear nerds. Thanks so much guys!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I never realized that the colonel that looks like Raiden is literally named "Ivan Raidonovich" I've always wondered why they look so similar 😭
Man what an intense story and timeline. One of my favorite series since Metal Gear Solid for the PS.
2:13:31 when Vic Boss flipped the tape over to ‘Operation Intrude’ note that 11 years have passed
Maybe 11 years passed. The logo in the back changed to “outer heaven” but that could’ve been symbolic. He literally punches a hole into oblivion and walks off so it’s hard to know what’s real and what’s just a narrative construct
I wasn’t aware of how long the video was until I clicked it… I’ve chosen my fate for the next 6 hours.
And just like that. I asked myself "i wonder if anyone did an exhaustively long in depth chronological explanation of the MG/MGS series?" And here I am, arriving at this masterpiece. Well its noon on a Sunday, and i think I know what I'm gonna do.
This deserves a lot more recognition. Huge kudos for the amount of the work this must have took. Happy holidays!
I'm a HUGE mgs fan, it's been my favorite media since the pizza hut demo on psx In 1998. I pride myself on being very knowledgeable on it and I'm still learning details I was hazy on! Great video!
Pizza hut demo?!?!?!
They were THREEEEEE piZZA HUUTTTT, DeMO DIISSSSSCCS
This has to be the greatest video I've watched in a very long time. As you said at the end, Metal Gear ran deep in my heart, and frankly it was a key part of my childhood. Getting to watch the story together this way, priceless.
This is just incredible work. I'm a huge MGS fan, and I've always needed something like this since I wasn't able to play all of its videogames. It also helped me understand A LOT of concepts I didn't fully understand.
Again, this is amazing work.
Congrats!
I give this video a S rank! Epic, something for everyone who loves the MG world, as well as those who got lost in how convoluted the story is given the games timeline is spread far and wide. Well done SG, well done! 👍
1:06:43 "Searching the trucks, Snake finds... a strange man named Mr. Kojima"
"What took you so long Snake?"
Words cannot express the level of respect and total admiration I have for this all encompassing Metal Gear project. You’ve done us fans, who will (like me, I’m sure) just about pledge allegiance to all things Metal Gear, more than justice. Thank you over and again.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Kojima himself would be impressed with this work.
I really like to believe that little fan made comic " Last Day in Outer Heaven " is also canon. It gives a nice closing to both Venom Snake and Quiet's stories, as well as setting up the events of Metal Gear 2.
I’m a huge fan and still learned all the stuff about Ames behind the scenes. This was worth every second
I honestly never expected this pleasant surprise.
You truly are a dedicated man and I applaud your dedication to not only this video, but your channel as well. Keep up this amazing content.
Thank you guys so much for working on this. The world needed this.
That moment of placing the PSX while saying "Snake was able to outsmart the man" was hilarious.
Love the effort you guyz put into these videos ❤️❤️❤️...been watching almost all of your releases to games that I couldn't have time to play and have enjoyed it (recaps, timelines, & story summaries)...keep up the good work 👍
I never sat threw something that has been close to home and a classic game I loved to play and watch my brothers play . This was Awesome to watch and it gave me a better understanding of the MGS series 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I have to say as a loyal mgs fan. I have seen videos placed together before. I periodically love refreshing this story line for myself and this was by far the best video that I have seen put together yet. Great job.
This is like the most special gift a metal gear fan could've given to other Metal Gear fans, just amazing, you really did your studying and connections here, you're pretty good!
This 6 hour video Suggestive Gaming kicked ass, hope you all are having a great winter. Absolutely satisfactory Boss, great job!
🙂
I watched the whole video even though I played all the main series multiple times.
It always surprises me how many details I have never noticed or seen before appear in videos like this.
Great job 👌
As someone who never played or seen any of the series, this was a really good summary, well done :)
I never knew the Murasama was a reference to these games, cool.
HOLY MOLY, I NEVER REALLY UNDERSTOOD THE COMPLEXITY OF MGS. I am thankful to you kind sirs for bringing such a detailed and comprehensive masterpiece.
I really only played 2, 3, and 4 of the series, and I knew I was missing a lot but never felt the desire to play the others to see what I had missed. This video is just what I needed to help understand the story as a whole but see the things I missed in the games that I did play. Now I need to watch this video again to understand the stuff I missed on the first watch.
Holy crap, six whole hours! I've been waiting for this video for a very long time, glad to see it's finally finished. Excellent job!
Thank you for the video, I watched all six hours of it across a few days. This saga is close to my heart, and I appreciate your hard work in creating this masterpiece.
Just want to tell you that I really appreciate the time and the effort you put in this video man,thank you! Hands down MGS is one of the greatest game series ever and definitely one of the most complex yet amazing storylines I’ve ever seen in my entire life of gaming. Much respect to you and I’ll definitely sub
Fun fact. I told the girl I like the whole plot of metal gear and trying to keep it short and interesting. It still took me 2 hours of writing.
Been waiting for this since it was announced! Also 6 hrs? Amazing work
"Kept ya waiting huh?"
As many times that I have replayed mgs 1-5, as many times as I've watched video essays and read articles on the series, I'm still learning new tidbits. And that's amazing. Thanks for the great video, well job sir 👍👍👍
Metal Gear Solid 3 had some of my favorite game bosses ever.
But the ability to kill the end early on while he's being rolled away in his wheelchair, or by just advancing the clock on the ps2 so he dies of old age in the battle is one of the greatest parts of this game!
Imagine only playing MGS in the 90's then MGS5 a couple years ago only. I was so confused but I still loved it haha
i’ve been waiting for someone to make this video a long time. great work man, from a long time fan and ardent supporter of the series’ narrative.
This is top tier and you should be so proud of it! I remember starting this game series with MGS 2 as a 12-year old and having a deep love for it, even though I didnt really know what was going on story wise. Now its been 20 years and Ive played through most of the series and watching this timeline was a joyful trip through memory lane. Thank you for your hard work ❤
This must've taken ages to puzzle together in a fluent, coherent way.
Ever since playing MGS1 as a kid, I've been obsessed with the metal gear series, and this perfectly goes over the entire timeline, showing how everything is connected and is one giant game, with all the characters' lives and actions impacting different things, big and small, throughout the entire storyline of Metal Gear.
You're pretty good.
Yes finally now I can understand the story of metal gear solid thank you 😊
Me : Trying to study for my exams tomorrow
Also Me : Passionately watches a 6 Hour video on Metal Gear Solid Timeline
I never thought that spending 6 hours watching this would be a waste. The level of detail you showed in this video is incredible
wonderful job . worth every second . it was a good pace , plenty of information , and the ability to keep ones attention on the subject. spectacular
This is unreal. Incredible work. Thank you for making this.
Not sure where to start, but you just made my day, well at least 6 hours. You’re with no doubt the biggest MGS fan I’ve ever seen.
Never seen such commitment, effort and so on.
I don’t even know how to puts this in words.
All the best buddy. And you’re my MGS Guru.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!😅
This was truly amazing! The work you put into it is just truly incredible. Great job!!! Metal gear is one of my favorites as well and to get all the story in chronological order was truly awesome! I’m going to go watch all your other content now. Thank you again. This was a great video!!
played almost all of them and the story didnt make much sense played from release order, this saga has one of greatests stories EVER. Thanks so much for this video, masterpiece
Big boss is the character I've related to the most over this series. His death in the franchise holds a special place in my heart and mind just like his life's journey.
Much respect to you for your hard work in creating this video. I enjoyed sitting through this video, it was a great watch. It took several days for me to finish! I wanted to treat it as a documentary to watch.
Anyways, great video as always! 😄
ya know, ive been watching the streamer group called Outer heaven for maybe over a year now and they do every run you can think of for MGS games all the fucking time. ive been confused about the lore for so long and this finally pieced together what those fantastic people do.
I Love this.
Thank you for making this video; I’m always looking for a most complete story of lore behind videogames and this has satisfied my need to know
