Anyways, here is my pick, the best MGS game in the series. For me, its , Metal Gear Solid 3 Snake Eater *clap clap* Ok. Let me give my points.
1. The story
MGS3 tells us the story for a lone olsider that travels to Russia to extract one defected Russian scientist, only to find out that he must also eliminate his mentor. Melancholic. The plot really reminds me of old Bond movies. Also, lets not forget, this game's setting was in the 60's. And, in Russia. Past Metal Gears (in Sony's console) happened in the future, but not this one, and MGS, being a game that is incorporated with real life army tech, tried to fit the 60s flavour, the guns, the vehicles, the people and the fashion. I really like the ending where Eva said, "No she is not a traitor, far from that. She is a hero, and everything she did, she did for her country"
Fricking sad if you ask me. And, Naked Snake, being a man, is so strong to discover he was a tool for the Philosophers. I love how he was injured and tortured and 'brought back to life' to face his fate. And, The Sorrow's prediction that he was going to be killed by his son is totally wrong..HAHA. Big Boss in MGS4 dies of Foxdie. NOT by the hands of Solid Snake.
2. The food system
Okay you are basically a commando. And was dispatched into a vast jungle to accomplish your mission. You have a normal army gear, not those sneaking suit that is so damn tight and burns calories slower. You gotta eat. And that is what Naked Snake is doing in the vast jungles. The different effects of the food, the poisons, the rotten food. Awesome. You can even defeat one of the bosses by simply feeding him rotten mangoes. How awesome is that? And the term Snake Eater is actually a real term used to describe US Rangers.I was only wondering, why cant we eat dogs and the vultures in the game?3. The tech/weapons
4. Close quarters combat
This is the meat of the game. This is the FORTE of the game. I really like the fact that if we are caught in the ALERT more, we can CQC the hostiles instead of running away. This is Big Boss GODDAMNIT!! And Big Boss never runs from the battlefield. Try playing MGS1 or 2, just imagine they had this inside the game, then I'd give MGS2 the Best MGS series ever. Seriously. 5. The Cobra Unit
Okay, we have here, THE COOLEST line up of villains in video games history. Before them, it was the Foxhound. But since Cobra has the Sorrow, who is practically a ghost, it was an easy win for them. A fricking ghost.The Fury, The End, The Boss, The Sorrow, The Fear and The Pain. Awesome.6. Camo system
Soldiers = camouflage. As simple as that. I really like how the choice of the camo really affect the gameplay. With the correct camo, you can be, INVISIBLE. And to get those boss' camo, you need to defeat them with non lethal attacks, drain their stamina. Each camo has its own ups and down. But my personal favourite is ..
You gain this from defeating The Sorrow, well, actually just walk to the end of the canal of death. You can practically absorb the soldier's fatigue and your footsteps will be muffled as long as you wear this. Awesome. Perfect for holding up the hostiles. But one comment, changing the camo to the suitable one is a bit tedious. You will have to go the system menu to equip different camo. This is where octo camo wins. But nevertheless, the feeling of getting an enemy to get by pass you unnoticed is sweet.7. Boss @ The Joy
The Mother of US Special Forces. Led US to victory in the WW2. And the mentor of Big Boss, hence the name. How she sacrificed herself to save US and how she went down in history as a war criminal, but not to Big Boss. The master of CQC. He charismatic character and her sacrifice plays a pivotal role in the game. One of the best characters Kojima ever produced.Well, those are my points. True, MGO started with MGS3. But the game is fince without that mode. The best MGS ever.
