The Story Of... Metal Gear

  • We're going back to where it all started baby... METAL. GEAR.
    If you're like me and became a fan of the series by playing metal gear solid back in the 90s, chances are you had no idea who Big Boss was and why he was so important to the plot. Now, this game doesn't answer many questions but it does give us the origin story of Solid Snake as a Foxhound rookie and his past with Big Boss.
    The original Metal Gear didn't only introduce us to one of the most iconic video game characters of all time, it also gave birth to many of the staples we love and adore in the franchise to this day.
    Since the story is shorter in this game, I did add more information about the gameplay itself since so many people have never played it and I wanted them to feel like they were actually experiencing some of it.
    Let me know your thoughts down below!
    Metal Gear MSX / Available on Metal Gear HD Collection - MGS3
    Konami
    1987
    Thanks for watching!! :D

    I love that even the Fire Trooper came back as The Fury. I've never seen any game or movie series recycle characters as shamelessly yet somehow successfully. With all his genius, Hideo still clearly believes "If it ain't broke..."

    19 year old that started with the phantom pain here!
    There's such a weird vibe that I absolutely love about playing these really old games. I recently played snake eater and peacewalker (I'm doing a chronological order run and I LOVED snake eater) and when I reached this game right after the phantom pain I admit I was a bit stumped XD. Even though these games are way before my time it still takes me back to my childhood (Maybe because I used to watch AVGN, fucked up childhood ik) downloading and trying to play such games, I have retreated to eating chocolate and ice cream while letting an older person explain it though XD
    EDIT: I think I got lost somewhere up there and forgot to thank and commend you for the great video! (English is not my first language pls forgive)

    Great video! I beat this game in 1987. When I was 7! Don't ask how because I don't remember lol. But I do remember it being the hardest game I ever played up to that point. I didn't play MG2 till much later for some reason but I tracked down a copy of it when I heard about Metal Gear Solid being in development (which I learned of from an issue of EGM) I didn't even have a PlayStation yet lol. But either way I've been a fan since day one.

    The nes version was hilariously broken. It’s where I first played metal gear. In fact it was the sequel made on the nes that triggered kojima to make a true sequel.
    Also in regards to the similarities between the original metal gear and metal gear 2 and solid 1 and 2 was deliberate. In fact mgs 1 and the raider section of mgs2 is exactly the same game as mg2: solid snake.
