Actually yes.

I really want to play the first one for PSone. That's probably my favorite one. Vulcan Raven, Psycho Mantis, Gray Fox... Aw man... The memories!

Considering that I played them already, and loved every single minute of them ...up until I did hard mode on MGS2 with instant death whenever you are seen... I can't really say it has, bit too late for that :laugh:

Wonderful games though. Not as good as ZoE2, but pretty **** close.

Kojima always gets involved with the best games...

also, pick up subsistence for mgs3 if you can, it has a improved camera so you can see everything without having to hold down R1 every few seconds

I did that too. Hard mode, can't be seen, no radar, and collected every dog tag. Got all the way to fortune. Then I seriously just didn't have the skill to get past her. It was really frusterating because I put so much **** time into it!

It's the other way around for me. Playing Metal Gear Solid 1, 2, and 3 made me want to main him in Brawl.

I think you're going to find a ton of snake players who are already fans of the MGS series - myself included.

The 2nd disk of subsistence is so cool! I went back and played through mgs 1 after having played the original metal gear, and the 'adaptation' aspect is cool and kind of beautiful at the same time. Hideo Kojima is the only game developer I'd gladly follow off a cliff.

Snake Eater fight vs. the metal gear thing (shagohod i think?) on the back of the motorcycle was one of the most intense boss fights I've ever seen.

Entire series is gripping mind blowing and ultimately amazing.

Play that ****.

Same here. I played all of the Metal Gear Solid games (starting with the PS1), so as a result, I wanted to main him in Brawl.

I played all the MGS games, even the game boy one. And though he isn't my main in Smash, Snake is **** fun. I think the main reason I don't play him more is that I haven't gotten used to his aerial moves yet.

Like about half the thread, he was my first choice to main because I love the MGS series. I'm glad I like his playstyle though, beacuse I used to main Fox in Melee, and I wanted to love Snake, so I'm glad I do.

My Dad borrowed MGS from a co-worker and never played it, but I did. I loved it, and played part 2. I haven't played the other ones but I wish I did.

I am really happy at the way Nintendo represented Snake in this game. All of his explosives, the punch>punch>kick, the choke grab. I had to main snake, he's just too badass.

my favorite part of mgs3 was pulling the trigger at the end. I couldn't believe they made you do that.
Yep, just like in Gungrave(anyone play it? Anyone? It's freaking awsome). It's awsome just waiting for a few moments to really let everything sink in. So dramatic.

I've been playing the series for years so I wanted to play Snake from playing the MGS games, so again, I'm, another person where it's the other way around.

BTW, for those who want to play the first one or don't have any of them DEFINITELY get this:
http://www.gamestop.com/product.asp?product_id=281885

It couldn't be more of a steal, considering a lot of places still sell MGS3: Subsistence for 30 bucks and MGS1 online can be anywhere form $30 bucks and up.

I pretty much main Snake, the only other person I'd play more than him is Falco, who I've loved since Melee and after playing him a few times in Brawl I decided to stay with him. So Falco/Snake are my mains...

I don't really like choosing one over the other but if I had to, it may be Snake. Sorry Falco :(

I had the original MGS game, but the second disc was messed up and didn't work. I forgot about this series until Brawl came out. I didn't know if I would like Snake, but I ended up loving him.. So this got me thinking about the MGS series again and I went out and bought the Metal Gear Solid Essentials Collections. The first game is one of the best games ever, and I will be buying the fourth game when it is released.
