The full plot of Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake for the MSX2 told succinctly, but not very succinctly. - - - Full Longplay: • The Zanzibarland Distu... - For the Metal Gear Solid 1 LP: forums.somethin...
Many elements of this game have been reproduced in MGS, like the elevator's ambush, the stairs chase, the Hind D fight, the warning of Gray Fox on Snake about the minefield and the meet between Snake and Natasha on the ladies bathroom, which is the same as the one with Meryl.
Also the fake person, like decoy octopus copying the DARPA chief. The parachuting was replaced with downroping. Dr Marv has a "heart attack". Shape memory alloy.
Yeah, there's a very intentional theme of repetition in this series. MG2 takes a lot of elements from MG, MGS takes elements from MG2, MGS2 is in-universe trying to recreate elements from MGS and so on From snake eater forward these patterns become more complex. MGS3 has more in common with MG2 than MGS2 but there's a bit of every prior game within it
Release an owl to convin e a guard it's night? And here I thought porn as a distraction was far fetched. Screw death stranding I want venom snake to climb a clock tower screaming "BING BONG IT'S 20'00 TIME TO GO TO SLEEP" and the guards are like "welp time to switch to night patrol routes" despite the sun being still out
16:29 the big boss snake was fighting in metal gear 1 was venom snake aka the medic after an explosion in the 70s he was recovering in the hospital and was being told he is big boss he believed it I think at some point he discovers his true origin but I forgot he was possing as a body double for big boss im pretty sure venom snake is dead
Yes the "Big Boss" that Solid Snake Killed in MG1 was indeed Venom Snake, hence the reason why Solid Snake was so taken aback when He found out that Jack/The Real Big Boss had "Survived" in Metal Gear 2 Solid Snake
@@texasgent4694 So was the Big Boss from Metal Gear 2 the former Naked Snake from MGS3? Venom dies at the end of MG1, and the "real" Big Boss somehow survives the events of Metal Gear 2?
@@A_Salted_Fishe Yes the Big Boss that Solid Snake fights and nearly burns to death at the end of Metal Gear 2 Solid Snake is Jack/Naked Snake from MGS3, and yes Venom Snake from MGS5 was the Big Boss that Solid Snake kills at the end of the Original Metal Gear
Besides some names being wrong (which is more to blame what their names were in the MSX2 version and not the rereleases) and certain items (which is due to the MSX2 version again), this is a really good video.
Yo I remember playing this!!! I remember not trying to use much internet while playing in order not to ruin my experience but damn... OK maybe the tap code thing was a little hard but the damn glider part freaked me out! How the hell was I supposed to know that Snake needs to smoke to fly so he wouldn't feel stressed or something idk. Also there was a part when an insect or a bird was in your inventory and it was eating your items as far as i remember lol. But it's a great game overall!
Who would win? Big Boss the worlds greatest solider and mercenary, a legend of war, a master of close quarters combat or some sneaky boy with a can of hairspray and a lighter.
Thank you so much for your summaries, they are so succinct! feels like i am playing the game also with how you integrate all the gameplay and story segments. top notch
Konami threw away the source code for MGS1, common practice for them back in the ps1-2 era of games. They also threw away the Silent hill games, which is why the silent hill HD collection was so poorly "remastered"
Isn't Snake a CQC expert? Why use the missiles? It was the 90s. Kojima wanted to remake the original two games to help tie everything in with the retcons but we all know how that happened.
Playing MGS1 as a kid always felt…off. I only found out about the original Metal Gear games when I was 20. It’s a bit crazy how well MGS still works despite the fact that most of the emotional moments and indeed plot are incomprehensible if you haven’t played an obscure NES game from a decade prior. In hindsight, we can appreciate the balls on Kojima to simultaneously remake that game no one outside of Japan played while also designing that remake to be a direct sequel for the game it’s basically a remake of…and then he did it again with MGS3.
@@arthuredington6171 you’re not understanding what I’m saying. I said the MSX version. Look up the difference between MSX version and the version they released on Xbox, you’ll see what I mean.

@MinecraftJesusGaming0 yes
Killer hamsters. Only Kojima could make that work.
Big boss is weird
"Killer hamsters? HOW?"
"Nanomachines."
"Oh."

With the last game big boss calling you and telling you to turn off the MSX

Holy shit this deserve more view!
Also the story and gameplay is nothing short of Kojima.
Dude is a mad lad long before he become a legend.
I like how apparently tanks need legs but then the tanks with legs' weakness are their... legs. genius!
9:30 friendship with snake ended
Big boss is now my best friend
You heard it here first, folks.
Squeaking sand.
I had no idea that Big Boss was modeled to look like Sean Connery! While Snake reminds a lot Mel Gibson.
IoSonoSlashMan93 who tf are they, Mel? Wtf
@@shawaaf_1593 Have you lived in a cave all this period? 🤔

what the hell is in those rations
potatoes
chocolate
cheese
i feel bad for the guy
It's probably cheesy potatoes tots and a chocolate bar
Pretty normal tbh
I was 70% through the game and lost all my progress so I appreciate this

A very well done video, you just gained a sub! Oh, and this is one of my favorite videogames of all time.

Marv Petrovich really isn't a Czech name. But hey, they tried, at least it is better than "Running man".
They should remake Metal Gear 1 and 2 in the vein of Ground Zeroes, then remake Metal Gear Solid 1 and put them all in one package.

The only time Snake and Big Boss fought each other
Was it big boss or venom snake
@@emobassist MGSV retcon means it's Venom Snake.
@bradencoffey5029 Venom was killed by Solid in Metal Gear 1. This was the real big boss aka Jack/naked snake that fought solid here in metal gear 2.
Thank you for making this video 👍
Cool, thanks to you I know the lore of both titles, thank you! Love the names lol

You talking about how Dr. Pettrovich has a stone grip on Solid Snake ?
If so , I think that he turned himself into a cyborg .
MGS1 basically is a remake of the original two anyways…while simultaneously being a direct sequel
Those names tho
how can i play the original non-retconned msx games without selling a kidney to buy an msx and the games?
Buy a ps2 and buy MGS3 Subsistence. It has both MG1 and MG2
Or simply buy the the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection for PS3, where MG1 and MG2 are included in the main menu OF Snake Eater

1:08 so thats what they did to the nukes from the fob missions
World is unfair. This deserves like a million views at least.
yo i gotta come back to watch this high
l'm listening on Christmas!
I love this video.
Really good video thank you
bro is not veteran by jpegmafia
Also apparently i think as of mgs 4 they retconed that Zanzibar land is actually tselinoyarsk from mgs3 just years later
that information wasn't written by kojima but other konami authors
Excelent work; i enjoyed it a lot
Im czech and its so funny to see someone speak czech in metal gear:DD
I had snakes revenge on NES. It sucked. But if it wasn't for that game, we wouldn't have Metal Gear 2.
The remote control missile bit was funny af 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Great work, thanks
Wow, so much of this is in MGS1.
Big Boss aka Sean Connery,lol
THE RETURN OF GENOLA!
61!
Snake is a massive hamster killer
That running man must be really fast
Hey how were you able to get the original MSX version of the game in English?
If he has an xbox one, in the hd collection of Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3 you can play the OG Metal Gears and they're in english
