as a metal gear fan i fully endorse this guide. it's well-done and very accurate. the only thing it missed is the in-depth explanation of metal gear rising's terrifying modding scene
Wait until they charge $70 for the next gen remake of Snake Eater.. that's apparently the same exact game, map, locations, etc.. with the graphics of PS5/Xbox S. Clowns.
@@doejon9424Still giving it a chance. It looks ORGASMICALLY good, and there has been no statements of what is or isn’t gonna be added. Plus, we already see it’s gonna have crouch walking and totally overhauled animations. There is almost certainly gonna be small nods to later canon deveopments.
This is awesome. It's accessible & clear, and it sets aside the hair-splitting that can deter newcomers. Thanks for the "Driving Off the Map" and "Monstrous Births" shout-outs!
5:49 That is why I tell people who never played Metal Gear before that are starting to now with Master Collection Vol 1 to start in release order with Metal Gear (1987) and Metal Gear 2 Solid Snake. To understand the evolution of the series leading up to the Solid games.
The fact that there are this many asterisks and weird things you have to know makes this pretty overwhelming for someone interested in the series. Good video, weird series.
9:07 this is SO much more important than one realizes for Metal Gear Solid 1. If you’re playing it for the first time and you’re stuck (which you will at one point), take a screenshot of this and come back to it.
Been saying it for 20+ years, will say it again: Play in release order! Start with either the MG1 (1987) or the MGS1 (1998), depending on your retro-gaming tolerances. You WILL thank me later, and it'll be a journey to remember. Also do remember to check the "Briefing Files" -videos and the "Previously" documents in the main menu of MGS1, and try some VR Training (= tutorials) before jumping into the campaign. Otherwise, many younger folk will not be ready for such an oldschool experience. You also get a lot of extra backstory and trivia to flesh out the main campaign.
For me MPO should count as canon because first, it doesn't contradict to any other canon games and second, it actually supplement some story elements even though you can complete the remaining canon games without MPO and would feel the story doesn't make sense.
@@raidernation2390 As you may have known, TTS splits opinions among fans. For me, it's the better graphics that matters more, despite the slightly overdone cutscences. The voice acting was also a split - I actually like the acting for Liquid and Raven far more than those in the original, but I need to admit Snake and Campbell can do better. Some questioned the decision to remove the accents of Naomi and Mei Ling, but that's actually more sensible because they both grew up in the US since teenage. The only that I am really not satisfied with the game was the deviation from the original sound track, but no matter what, I like that overall package, only that it is on Game Cube and that may be the reason why it cannot be released in PS5
I want to thank Ravi for hosting this on The Snake Soup. I hope everyone enjoys the upcoming release of Master Collection Vol.1 just as much as I enjoyed getting into the series all those years ago!
Does Ravi even work on that site anymore? I thought he hung up his boots like a decade ago. Kind of weird seeing the Snake Soup on youtube again. I thought his parasitic legacy video was great but thought that would be the last we'd her from him
"This is the back of the game's CD case. Pretty cool, right?" And they refuse to elaborate, lmao. Got a good laugh outta me there. Thank goodness the back of the box and the digital store pages are cool too now that the Master Collection is out.
Evidently, not because maybe an hour into mgs1, they require you to look at the back of the actual CD case to get the frequency 140.15 to call Meryl. Unless it is automatically in there on master collection. @sameeratownsend6509

@@supremeworld87I edited this video and Parasitic Legacy. The narrator for this video is my friend, HubPie. Though this video is mostly my brainchild, Ravi retains editorial control over everything.
You can start at MGS3 but you miss the plot twist of learning you’re actually playing as BB. Up until that game we’d only heard of him and his greatness. I remember thinking at the time “did Solid Snake get sent back to the 60s??” How they gonna explain this? Wasn’t until his eye getting shot out did I realize I was playing as big boss , the excitement was insurmountable
This was great. Metal Gear is a series I've been DYING to get into for years, especially after playing Death Stranding last year ( which became my favorite game of all time and one of my favorite works of media in general ). So I'm so happy that the new master collection will finally give me the opportunity to play these games.
Great great video man, keep uploading quality MGS content like this and you got yourself a well deserved bell icon click. (Nvm here you go mate, you deserve it.)
I just finished metal gear 2 solid snake yea I recommend using a guide for these games. Don’t know how gamers back in the day figured some puzzles out without a guide. But yet again these games were only released in Japan back then and games in Japan were way harder than American games.
Not including Metal Gear Survive. It’s amazing the main storyline plus the side games. The franchise came a long way from 1987-2015. Which lasted for 28 years. But of course it’s still going strong thanks to remastering the old games for the newest Gen consoles!

Instead of the cd-case you can just call Campbell a couple of times, suddenly a new person to call will pop up. Also, playing TTS somewhere between MGS2 and MGS4 should be considered, since the script was "updated", even if it's worse than the original.
Hey folks! I'm a real noobie to the Metal Gear franchise, but am enjoying my time starting with the first game Metal Gear (1987). I was hoping to get some help answering a question. In Metal Gear (1987), when the cigarettes are equipped, they will make a *ding ding* noise and blink every few seconds. What is this supposed to indicate? It happens in rooms with or without inferred lasers. Thank you all!
The "Minecraft" joke never got old 😂. And unfortunately that's the only way nowadays to be able to experience the whole series without owning several different systems.
When I first got into the series I played MGS3 first, it being a prequel and all and I would heavily advise any newcomer against doing so. With MGS3 being arguably the best in the series and one of the best games ever in general MGS and MGS2 felt like a massive downgrad and I robbed myself of a lot of the fun I could have had
Feeling robbed playing MGS2 is an intended part of the experience. Growing up with MGS1 on PS1, then playing as raiden felt annoying when I just wanted to be solid snake again... Yet, it was intentional apparently?
@@g3nj1 Thats true. Feeling robbed is part of the experience of MGS2. The gameplay and presentation being a downgrade from MGS3 isnt an intended part of the experience though lol
@@Zockanumber1 you're right about the experience downgrade, and the references won't land as well in reverse order. I think starting with MGS1 is the best, then 2 and 3, and so on.
I will always recommend MG1 and 2 before MGS1. Until Master Collection, the only way to play them easily was on PS3, and even then they were a bonus, not advertised as a key part of the collection like the Master Collection
I had the original PS versions when they came out in 98. I did notice that Twin Snakes cleaned up the original MGS as well as make characters actually talk. Is that what we'll be getting in Master Collection?
@ForceWave-1139 I mean if u look at the animation of TTS it's crisper and the characters actually move they're mouths and facial expressions when they talk. As opposed to the original PS1 MGS
@@mikeking1948None of that really matters when the experience is worse overall. Watch jackdonsurfer’s ‘Metal Gear Solid vs. The Twin Snakes: How Not to Remake a Classic.’
Yeah, about that MGS 4. Every other game runs well to great on the RPCS3 in minecraft. But MGS 4 just crashes randomly after about 2 or 5 or 10 or 3 minutes into gameplay without any reason. (in minecraft)
When the topic of remakeing metal gears 1 and 2 came up in the video, wouldn't it be possible to say that metal gear solid was say a soft reboot of the series? like yeah the events of the older games still happened but a lot of the events in solid mirror oddly similar to metal gear.
Which is why I find it funny when people complain that MGS2 is too similar to MGS1, since that's the only one where the repitition is actually explained by the plot.
@@cookieface80 I thought MGS2 being similar to 1 WAS the plot point. like they mention it ingame that the big shell was suppose to mirror shadow moses or something even down to dead cell being that games equivalent to foxhound.
@@Argonisgema Yeah, exactly. They wanted to prove that they could influence anybody to do what they wanted, Shadow Moses was the model they used to test that.
Really hoping Portable Ops and Rising get included as bonus in Vol 2. in the future. Portable Ops features some very crucial events that plant the seeds for Big Boss' private army motivation plus alot of character development for Ocelot, Roy Cambell, and Gray Fox. The only problem is that you can only play it on PSP, i own it but I'd much rather play on the big screen with dual analog controllers. And Rising is a super underrated and underappreciated MG game, a jolly good time of hack and slash and heavy metal.
Ok so i own a PS3 and PS5 i watched the video but am still wondering what you would recommend for me, i haven’t played a single game yet but am pretty sure i’m gonna enjoy the series. I was just wondering if it is better on the PS5 or that it is better on the PS3… Where i’m from the legacy is unavailable but i could buy games like the HD collection, Peace walker, Metal gear Solid 4, Master collection vol 1 and Metal gear solid V the definitive experience. Please help cause i really want to know what you think is the best choice…
Own all of them ready to play with my ps3 still hooked up ready to go, metal gear rising too. Ground zeroes and mgsV on ps4/5. Still probably get this collection at some point though. Maybe when its a bit cheaper.
@@ForceWave-1139 Hmm i was under the impression that the GOG version of MGS1 is one of the best versions of the game or was it with fan patches or something? 🤔
@@mikael9931Even with fan patches, it’s missing music and still has lots of small issues that add up. Whoever told you the GOG version is the best was high.
I feel like that new set of remasters they did aren't worth the money. If you're a fan that bought the Collection for PS3/Xbox then you already have more than whats offered in this newest release.
yeah probs but heres the thing. im not a newcomer. you dont sound like one either. imagine youre a zoomer born after the big shell incident who heard someone go "metal gear solids is the best fr" and then youre like ok how to i play this metal gear solids and they tell you to do a bunch of shit you dont want to do like buy an old piece of shit from a crack addict or download a bunch of questionable shit on your art-school-student-loan-funded ipad pro. having this shit on ps5 and hoping they patch everything wrong with it is probably what youre gonna do. some millenial might tell you how easy it is to play them on ps3 and youre gonna call them a boomer. in your heart, you know im right. anyways, heres wonderwall ua-cam.com/video/6hzrDeceEKc/v-deo.html
1:22 because it is amazing and literally Survival mechanic from 3 but with Fox Engine gameplay AND Gun porn that I could finally 100% use without it being trashy non safe run (or non XOF base mission) because these are bunch of zombies instead of humans that I as a "character" had absolute 0 beef with (except XOF) mostly. And also satisfying coop. Literally couldn't get better than this.
What is the game called that he says right after the splinter cell series? I've listened several times and I just can't make out what is being said lol.
I deleted my past comment to also provide some help for newcomers: DON'T buy the Master Collection 1 on PC. The Collection is actually a mostly solid attempt, but the PC port is _very_ barebones with clickbait channels even declaring it a SCAM just because they're only familiar with the PC port. Go for the console versions, and you'll be fine (though I personally am content with PC as it's the version I pre-ordered and there's tons of modding potential, if V's fix from the equally dire, if not worse Solid 2 Substance port is any indication).
If you are reading this, please also try Metal Gear Rising. It is easily one of the best games in the series (and best games overall), it was just “divisive” when it came out because it is technically a spin-off. And its lore is very separate from the rest of the franchise, so you don’t need any previous knowledge.
The problem is that it ruined Raiden’s character by having him embrace Jack the Ripper, even though Snake taught him “you can stop being part of a mistake, starting now.” (43:35) m.ua-cam.com/video/9GljJN5uAyQ/v-deo.html It’s a fun game, but for those of us who care about the series’ themes and messages, we ought to consider it, if not officially non-canon (to Konami), then non-Kojima-canon (if you go to the “Essential Myth Articles” part of our Further Readings guide, you’ll see why).
Are you seriously lecturing Hideo Kojima on what’s part of his story? Read our Myth article (to completion; don’t stop after only reading the first half of Kojima’s answers). It’s in the Further Readings guide.
Peace walker is currently available on Xbox 360, one, and series s/x, and ps3. So as of the upcoming master collection release, if you have an Xbox…the only one you won’t be able to play is mgs 4
they can be emulated? wow. i didnt know that. i just uh youre telling me that for the first time. theyre amazing games, what else can you say? theyre amazing games, whether you agree or not, they are amazing games. happy to hear that.
Great video. But I also suggest for newcomers to the saga on PC, before considering buying the Masters, to play the GOG versions of MGS and MGS2 which are official PC releases with actual support for keyboard and mouse. Both can be run at 60fps only caveat is with MGS since the game's engine and animations are specifically designed for 30fps playing on 60fps accelerates the game. MGS2 however you can play at smooth glorious 60fps and with the MGS2 V fix launcher you can add special effects and run up to 8k resolution. MGS2 has been pulled from GOG store but you can still find the game, if you know where to look ;)
The GOG versions are terrible. MGS1 is missing effects and MGS2 isn’t even available (but also, doesn’t have proper widescreen. Even the hack messes with the aspect ratio).
1:36 at this point just buy decent laptop, not even PC. MGS4 is almost perfectly run with emulator and MGS 3 in basically The Snyder Cut form only exists as Subsistence for PS2 with awesome Nightmare dream gameplay. And all of these is free and you can even play Metal Gear Online 2 !! and 1 too probably. Really PC is the Master Race, the Master Race is PC there is no way to games than through PC, all yours consoles will turn to dust, bur PC will be forever.
Not really. If anything MGR undoes MGS4’s hard won victory and torched Raiden’s happy ending. If you read our Myth articles, you’ll see that Kojima didn’t consider it part of his personal canon.
I meant more aesthetically. Ik Kojima doesn’t view it as cannon but I like to and Ik I’m not the only one. Aesthetically they are very similar and I think they blend well.
@@IkhahoIt is. I just wish Konami considered it non-canon, like Kojima does. ua-cam.com/users/clipUgkxnSpRI4dsveSc6F0RLchrvYkDmuXsStM0?si=Ig46gHj5AuV4tf_x

Wish there was a new MGS coming out. I would unretire and get a new console for MGS6.
I had the original PS versions when they came out in 98. I did notice that Twin Snakes cleaned up the original MGS as well as make characters actually talk. Is that what we'll be getting in Master Collection?
wdym the characters always had voice acting. In fact, TTS actually had worse voice acting.
@ForceWave-1139 I mean if u look at the animation of TTS it's crisper and the characters actually move they're mouths and facial expressions when they talk. As opposed to the original PS1 MGS
@@mikeking1948None of that really matters when the experience is worse overall. Watch jackdonsurfer’s ‘Metal Gear Solid vs. The Twin Snakes: How Not to Remake a Classic.’
1:37 idk RPCS3 is one of the easiest to set up emulators I have ever come across that arent of the NES or the like
As the person who made the MGS4 Minecraft guide, I strongly disagree. Even now that I got the game stable, it still has some noticeable issues.
i prefer a FN P90 to play mgs4 IRL IMO YMMV IYKYK
Yeah, about that MGS 4. Every other game runs well to great on the RPCS3 in minecraft. But MGS 4 just crashes randomly after about 2 or 5 or 10 or 3 minutes into gameplay without any reason. (in minecraft)
I have The Legacy Collection. It's great and well worth the price.
Not everyone has a PS3.
When the topic of remakeing metal gears 1 and 2 came up in the video, wouldn't it be possible to say that metal gear solid was say a soft reboot of the series?
like yeah the events of the older games still happened but a lot of the events in solid mirror oddly similar to metal gear.
Every Metal Gear game shares elements of past entries. Look up ‘Monstrous Births’ by James Howell. It’s linked in our Further Readings guide.
Which is why I find it funny when people complain that MGS2 is too similar to MGS1, since that's the only one where the repitition is actually explained by the plot.
@@cookieface80 I thought MGS2 being similar to 1 WAS the plot point.
like they mention it ingame that the big shell was suppose to mirror shadow moses or something even down to dead cell being that games equivalent to foxhound.
@@Argonisgema Yeah, exactly. They wanted to prove that they could influence anybody to do what they wanted, Shadow Moses was the model they used to test that.
Just got my switch physical copy today and I need like almost 30 gigs there’s olny 3 gigs on the cart strange
The Switch version is one of those physical fakes where you have to download most of the content.
Really hoping Portable Ops and Rising get included as bonus in Vol 2. in the future. Portable Ops features some very crucial events that plant the seeds for Big Boss' private army motivation plus alot of character development for Ocelot, Roy Cambell, and Gray Fox. The only problem is that you can only play it on PSP, i own it but I'd much rather play on the big screen with dual analog controllers. And Rising is a super underrated and underappreciated MG game, a jolly good time of hack and slash and heavy metal.
14:30 If it wasn't clear to you, DO NOT PLAY METAL GEAR SURVIVE its a game so bad its not even worth pirating
You played it?
Ok so i own a PS3 and PS5 i watched the video but am still wondering what you would recommend for me, i haven’t played a single game yet but am pretty sure i’m gonna enjoy the series. I was just wondering if it is better on the PS5 or that it is better on the PS3… Where i’m from the legacy is unavailable but i could buy games like the HD collection, Peace walker, Metal gear Solid 4, Master collection vol 1 and Metal gear solid V the definitive experience. Please help cause i really want to know what you think is the best choice…

Go with whatever version is cheaper for you. The Master Collection of MGS1 still has some issues.
Own all of them ready to play with my ps3 still hooked up ready to go, metal gear rising too. Ground zeroes and mgsV on ps4/5.
Still probably get this collection at some point though. Maybe when its a bit cheaper.
Thanks for keeping us updated on your individual situation.
Rising on the Ps3 was not that good. I prefer the PC-version with the fps fix of course. (I really like this game ^^)
I have MGS on GOG and kinda "started early" playing the series. This is my first time playing any MGS and i couldn't be more excited.
Get a refund. The GOG version is terrible.
@@ForceWave-1139 Hmm i was under the impression that the GOG version of MGS1 is one of the best versions of the game or was it with fan patches or something? 🤔
@@mikael9931Even with fan patches, it’s missing music and still has lots of small issues that add up. Whoever told you the GOG version is the best was high.
@@ForceWave-1139 So refunding the GOG version and getting the master collection is the best course of action?
@@mikael9931Correct
I feel like that new set of remasters they did aren't worth the money.
If you're a fan that bought the Collection for PS3/Xbox then you already have more than whats offered in this newest release.
yeah probs but heres the thing. im not a newcomer. you dont sound like one either. imagine youre a zoomer born after the big shell incident who heard someone go "metal gear solids is the best fr" and then youre like ok how to i play this metal gear solids and they tell you to do a bunch of shit you dont want to do like buy an old piece of shit from a crack addict or download a bunch of questionable shit on your art-school-student-loan-funded ipad pro. having this shit on ps5 and hoping they patch everything wrong with it is probably what youre gonna do. some millenial might tell you how easy it is to play them on ps3 and youre gonna call them a boomer. in your heart, you know im right. anyways, heres wonderwall ua-cam.com/video/6hzrDeceEKc/v-deo.html
1:22 because it is amazing and literally Survival mechanic from 3 but with Fox Engine gameplay AND Gun porn that I could finally 100% use without it being trashy non safe run (or non XOF base mission) because these are bunch of zombies instead of humans that I as a "character" had absolute 0 beef with (except XOF) mostly. And also satisfying coop. Literally couldn't get better than this.
What is the game called that he says right after the splinter cell series? I've listened several times and I just can't make out what is being said lol.

I deleted my past comment to also provide some help for newcomers: DON'T buy the Master Collection 1 on PC. The Collection is actually a mostly solid attempt, but the PC port is _very_ barebones with clickbait channels even declaring it a SCAM just because they're only familiar with the PC port. Go for the console versions, and you'll be fine (though I personally am content with PC as it's the version I pre-ordered and there's tons of modding potential, if V's fix from the equally dire, if not worse Solid 2 Substance port is any indication).
ive still never played 3 or 4.
I think Death Stranding would work better as a movie. The story mainly.
There metal gear movies could I watch thoes without playing the games cus the masters collection is expansive
Dont forget Rising and Portable Ops!
We didn’t. 14:18
It bugs me that the MSX versions are not included in this upcoming Vol. 1 collection 😢
But they are. They even come with MGS1 if you buy it individually.
@@ForceWave-1139 they are?? I guess I read it wrong .. hold up lol
It says famicom , nes version
@@illlogick7151Both the MSX games and NES games are part of the Master Collection.
I see now ! Thank you for taking the time to clear that up for me !
If you are reading this, please also try Metal Gear Rising. It is easily one of the best games in the series (and best games overall), it was just “divisive” when it came out because it is technically a spin-off. And its lore is very separate from the rest of the franchise, so you don’t need any previous knowledge.
The problem is that it ruined Raiden’s character by having him embrace Jack the Ripper, even though Snake taught him “you can stop being part of a mistake, starting now.” (43:35) m.ua-cam.com/video/9GljJN5uAyQ/v-deo.html
It’s a fun game, but for those of us who care about the series’ themes and messages, we ought to consider it, if not officially non-canon (to Konami), then non-Kojima-canon (if you go to the “Essential Myth Articles” part of our Further Readings guide, you’ll see why).
16:25 too bad that in MGS4 there are footages from Twin Snakes and Portable Ops cutscenes. Uh oh.
Are you seriously lecturing Hideo Kojima on what’s part of his story?
Read our Myth article (to completion; don’t stop after only reading the first half of Kojima’s answers). It’s in the Further Readings guide.
Peace walker is currently available on Xbox 360, one, and series s/x, and ps3.
So as of the upcoming master collection release, if you have an Xbox…the only one you won’t be able to play is mgs 4
There’s three other platforms PW needs to be ported to.
10:35 You can play peace walker on emulators or xbox series/ one
Not everyone has an XBox, and most players aren’t willing to do emulation.
And it’ll probably be included in Vol.2.
they can be emulated? wow. i didnt know that. i just uh youre telling me that for the first time. theyre amazing games, what else can you say? theyre amazing games, whether you agree or not, they are amazing games. happy to hear that.
Hey, grandpa! You are alive!
Great video. But I also suggest for newcomers to the saga on PC, before considering buying the Masters, to play the GOG versions of MGS and MGS2 which are official PC releases with actual support for keyboard and mouse. Both can be run at 60fps only caveat is with MGS since the game's engine and animations are specifically designed for 30fps playing on 60fps accelerates the game. MGS2 however you can play at smooth glorious 60fps and with the MGS2 V fix launcher you can add special effects and run up to 8k resolution. MGS2 has been pulled from GOG store but you can still find the game, if you know where to look ;)
The GOG versions are terrible. MGS1 is missing effects and MGS2 isn’t even available (but also, doesn’t have proper widescreen. Even the hack messes with the aspect ratio).
How do people not know the old games in HD collection we're playable on xbox one with backwards compatibility

The Twin Snakes on Nintendo GameCube was so awesome!
@@subtegral what did you not like about it?
I barely started playing and I’m at the part with the big titty sniper girl this game is good 👍
Lets see
I hope Portable ops is in Volume 2. Jesus, it really desires more respect.
1:36 at this point just buy decent laptop, not even PC. MGS4 is almost perfectly run with emulator and MGS 3 in basically The Snyder Cut form only exists as Subsistence for PS2 with awesome Nightmare dream gameplay. And all of these is free and you can even play Metal Gear Online 2 !! and 1 too probably.
Really PC is the Master Race, the Master Race is PC there is no way to games than through PC, all yours consoles will turn to dust, bur PC will be forever.
yeah true, the correct order to play the metal gear series is to buy trump lawyer alina habba's republic of gamer laptop
@@thesnakesoup makes sense why you guys overrate Metal Gear Solid 2 so much.
gamers are truly the most oppressed race
I think when the next collection comes out mgs4 and rising should be in it at once considering how closely related they are
Not really. If anything MGR undoes MGS4’s hard won victory and torched Raiden’s happy ending. If you read our Myth articles, you’ll see that Kojima didn’t consider it part of his personal canon.
I meant more aesthetically. Ik Kojima doesn’t view it as cannon but I like to and Ik I’m not the only one. Aesthetically they are very similar and I think they blend well.
@@WitheredRos3Aesthetics don’t really matter when it fundamentally screws over Raiden’s character. (43:35) m.ua-cam.com/video/9GljJN5uAyQ/v-deo.html
@@ForceWave-1139 Plus Rising is an really awesome game.
@@IkhahoIt is. I just wish Konami considered it non-canon, like Kojima does. ua-cam.com/users/clipUgkxnSpRI4dsveSc6F0RLchrvYkDmuXsStM0?si=Ig46gHj5AuV4tf_x
Why show footage of 4 when it's not in the collection
The collection is Vol.1.
Keep out sight. Good luck 😉 😂
GreatEST 🥷🏿 game everrrr
Oh come on Twin Snakes wasnt that bad.
Yes it was. ua-cam.com/video/t-2JNLajf1s/v-deo.htmlsi=VlGDreMQ4XwWR-CL
Twin Snakes = diarrhea.
It's a massive, massive downgrade from MGS1 in every conceivable manner.
Worse art-style, worse OST, worse VA/localization, butchered gameplay.
@@GugureSux Calm down geez
The differences between the MSX and NES versions are highly overstated.
