   Mistakes were made; but we pulled through.

     MSX Metal Gear holds up. MSX Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake... kinda holds up but it is definitely a lot of the early Kojima excess and retardation. Was definitely ahead of its time for better or worse.
     
     Honestly NES Snakes Revenge isn't too bad either but large parts of that game really ARE bad but if you can choke them down there are good parts.

     @TheMadPirate @Edge @ChristiJunior I played Metal Gear Solid for the first time a year or so ago and found in it a level of kino that reminded me of Super Metroid. My respects for that crazy Chink Kojima and his team. I had below-zero expectations when I started but ended up so impressed it made me want to play the original Metal Gear on MSX.
     
     However, a lot in that generation is basically Atari 2600 with voxels. :pepe_vomit:

     Anyone who dismisses the PS1 library is completely insane (or too normgroid to play fan-translated games).

     @Edge @ChristiJunior @Rasterman Well, I do have to give them the credit of "Final Fantasy VI", "Metal Gear Solid", "Parasite Eve" and "Chrono Cross".

     @Rasterman Reminder that people only hate on the "Dark Ages" because that was when Europeans put Jews in their place and actually controlled their own countries. Even today, I'd take the N64 over the GameCube :n64:

     Yeah it's non-canon. Different team and definitely janky but the Metal Gear spirit is still in it. Some great music though. https://invidious.poast.org/watch?v=GYKjNOcjDXY

     @DrRyanSkelton @ChristiJunior @TheMadPirate @Edge I plan to play MG2 sooner or later. I put what I thought was the ROM for the game in the emulator and it turned out to be a demo and that alone looked so much better than MG1.
     
     I don't know about Kojima retardation yet. I only played one game of his.
     
     Isn't Snake Revenge a non-canon game? Not that that's a problem; just wondering.

     Also MG2 LOOKS better but the simplicity of MG1 is part of what makes MG1 hold up so well while MG2 has everything and the kitchen sink.
     
     That has its own charm, to be fair.
