Which was the best?
*Only finished games may apply
>>
>>320287098
I see it
>>
Gameplay: 4 (for what little there was)=3 (more constantly good than 4)>2>1
Story/Cinematics: 2>3>1>4(the whole game is 'typing up loose-ends: the game'
Sound: 3=1>2>4
Overall: 3>2>1>4

How much does /v/ agree?
>>
>>320287098
The first three MGSs are nigh unplayable by modern standards, which makes them obsolete, so imma have to say 4.

>>320287610
bretty gud

>>320287098
2>4>3>1

>>320287098
For me it's 4=3>1>2
I'm weird and I love the really long cutscenes in 4

Are you fucking retarded?

>>320287098
MGS3 is the best. It has everything you could ever want from a game AND a movie all rolled up into one package. It's literal perfection.
>>
>>320288137
Me to actually, I love making
A sandwich and watching the cutsceans


But IMHO the Games are
2=3=4=1>PW>5

Look at the placement of them, its purposely done to be le funny loss meme

As criticised as MGS4 is/was, it's still a masterpiece.

I'd say something like 1=3>4>2>V. With one slightly above 3 for me.

3 is an outstanding game and has some factors in its favour like not having to rely on chronologically previous games or having a pretty closed ending on its own. That gives it a great boost. MGS4 is outstanding but you DO need the rest of the saga to fully enjoy it.

Explain, sir.

putting story and cinematics in the same category sucks ass.
because while MGS 2 had a good story it was mostly told through fucking codec calls. wich is boring as fuck.
1 3 and 4 have better cinematics but not necessarly a better story.
I mean MGS 2 is best story simply by how groundbreaking and unique it is, taking advantage of its medium the games before it and telling a bigger story while also telling the one of raiden.
>>320287098
from the ones you finished it would be 1.
MGS 3 subsistence is the one that matters, that one is even a little better.
>MGS 1's only flaw are the controls and backtracking.
>MGS 2 long codec calls and boring cutscenes big shell sucks ass and bosses are meh
>MGS 3 menus
>MGS 4 too many cinematic scenes like turret sequences and too many cutscenes that don't really say much except for mumbo jumbo and nanomachines.

oh well thats my 2 cents
MGS3:S > MGS1 > MGS2 = MGS2 Substance > MGS4 > MGS3: Snake Eater

MG2 was basically MGS in 1990 tech. Every innovation MGS is lauded for was here, almost ten years before. Fantastic game.

If you read anything about that game the amount of content they had to cut is legendary. Most cutscenes, a big chunk of Arsenal Gear, and the whole second platform of Big Shell.

3 is emotions
4 is cinematics
5 is gameplay
>>
>>320289154
5 will be remembered for Konami jewing everybody and Kojima finally losing it.
>>
from a technical standpoint 4, from an everything standpoint, it's gotta be 2. It's just the most exciting and twisted and futuristic and gripping game, and it's really sad too when EE dies.
>>
1, 2, and 3 are all pretty mich on par with each other. I think they can stand alone as a great trilogy. None of the other games need to exist but are nice to have.
>>
Metal Gear Solid.
>>
>>320289389
That's mostly not cut content, but stuff that never made it past the planning stage. All games do the same.
>>
>>320289392
Except gameplay is muuuch better in MGS4 apart from the feeling of being fluent and less rigid (and even so, I personally prefer a more rigid style like 4's over V's)
>>
>>320287098
The one where you play as snaek

1 is best
2 is ok
3 is pretty good
4 is dum
5 is fun

GAMEPLAY (MGS): 2 > 1 > 4 > 3
STORY: 2 >>> 4 (UNTIL THE END) > 3 > 1
"FUN": 3 >>> 1 > 2 >>>>> 4
CINEMATICS: 4 > 3 > 2 > 1
CHARACTERS: 3 >>> 1 >>> 2 >>> 4

>4 that low on gameplay
>4 last on characters when it has the best snake ever

Honestly, I feel very similar, but I'd switch Snake Eater with Guns of the Patriots.

If you played the original MGS3, not subsistence, then you'd get what I mean. And by the time I played MGS3:SS, I was already worn out of 3.
>>
1 is perfect
2 was excellent
3 is my favorite
4 was a disappointment, but fun all 2 hours you get to play it>>320287098
