Snake Eater

I recently purchased a MGS three pack (the psx one, sons of liberty, and snake eater) as i have owned a ps2 for years and never played one of its most famous games. I usually like to play games in order, fighting the temptation to go for the newer sequels, so i started mgs 1. I soon quit due to the fact that i couldn't save a psx game on my ps2 memory card.

MGS 2 was pretty good, a bit campy at times but the premise was good. They should just rename the meeping game Metal Gear Cutscene though. I felt like i was playing a movie as opposed to a game. A lot of whining and Japanese philosophical crapola bogged down the game for me at several points and Fatman was a meepty boss, a fat guy on rollerblades planting bombs? meep. Lots of twists made the plotline hard to follow and pretty meeping convoluted not to mention the ending was a huge cliffhanger that answered no questions. Other than these quibbles the game was pretty solid........Metal Gear Sold. Nice. :selfhighfive:

I really enjoyed Snake Eater, i liked the whole eating meep in the jungle to survive thing. The story fit nicely into the historical timeframe and I really got into it. It had a Rambo meets Bond feeling to it, which was pretty cool.I could have done without the same philosophical meep about what it means to be a soldier and war and nation-states blah blah blah...especially the meep The Boss says, who was my least favorite character. They should have made her a dude. Oh, and since when are there jungles in Russia?

The bosses were novel I suppose though they just seemed out of place. In the other MGS the bosses were genetically enhanced super soldiers these guys were just ww2 commandos. How the meep are they able to control bees or turn meeping invisible? The voice acting for Ocelot SUCKED. If this was a DBZ game it may have fit but in MGS he sounds like an meep.
