- Metal Gear Solid is one of the most recognisable franchises in video game history and a beloved stealth franchise that inspired many games in the genre after it. The series has a long and storied history, with each mainline entry serving as the landmark release of a game that is talked about even today. #metalgearsolid #mgs #gamespot

Playing MGS2 back then it seemed quite nonsensical. Playing it today is a chilling experience, because everything it talks about has come true.
I have always thought that the Metal Gear games have always been trying to tell us what was about to happen in the future. But they also tell us what happened in the past in a way the government would have never wanted us to know. It's one of those narratives that exist in the real world that confirms for me how corrupt the world leaders were and still are. To be honest, I am quite surprised that these games were allowed to be released because of how much the real world story is so close to what actually happened, well, in terms of the cut scenes. It is everything that the governments would have never told us.
I see this in other games as well, such as the Assassin's Creed series. There are a lot of things in those games that hit home about real-world history that you would have never been told or made aware about by real-world governments. That's what I love the most about the Metal Gear series and Assassin's Creed Series as they literally try to warn you about real-world events.

Thank you for keeping the memory of this franchise alive @gamespot
This was incredible, Lucy! Thank you so much. I'd def be interested in a complete history of MGS video.
Just so you know, they have a nine part series explaining every single game in the timeline. It came out a few years ago. It’s awesome. You should check it out.
I know the Metal Gear history better then my own history but I’ll watch the vid anyway
War has changed, now it's mercenaries for hire
Mgs 1 2 and 4 and acid is Solid Snake, mgs 3, 5 peace walker, portable ops is big boss.
MG1, 2, Snakes revenge and Ghost Babel also feature Solid Snake.
Shout out to Tamoor & Lucy my fave MGS duo giving us MGS primer.
Twin Snakes was awesome, and definitely doesn’t get the appreciation it should. I had a roommate in college who didn’t really play games, but he saw me play Twin Snakes and decided that he wanted to give it a go. We spent weeks going back and forth doing our respective playthroughs, and he was blown away by the game and story. I thought it was cool how it was just as good to a long-time MGS fan like me, but also someone new to the franchise like him.
I was a kid that would watch my older bro play twin snakes and was intrigued by it
My favorite game series of all time
MGS3 is one of my favorite games of all time. I have so many fond memories of it playing with my brother and discussing the plot and characters, replaying cutscenes to see the cool ones, and finding secrets. I really hope the remake is respectable of the original. Thanks Gamespot for this!
The remake is a 1:1 just revamped to modern console graphics settings. It’s going to be an absolute masterpiece
Portable Ops is semi-canon.
Geoff Keighley: ”Is Portable ops canon?”
Kojima: ”It’s is quite difficult question. If we talk about little details, it deviates from the Metal Gear Saga. How should I put this? Regarding the overall story it is part of the saga, but regarding little details it is a little off from the main story.”
Basically stuff like recruiting Eva and Ocelot in the game.
Gray Fox/Null I think might have been one of those details too but MGSV also retconned MG2 since Big Boss was in a coma when he was meant to meet Frank in Vietnam.
Every Metal Gear Solid game has small details that deviate from the saga because in the sequels they have been retconned or left broken. So, OPS is not an exception and actually it's basically on the same status of any other MGS game. To be specific, the details of OPS that have been contradicted so far are just a couple of minor things that don't effect the story or the series at all.
Edit: leaving aside special quests like recruiting Eva and Ocelot, for those it's clear that are just meant to extend the longevity of the game(in fact, you can't even get them in the first run). The characters from MGS3 that you can recruit and that are canon in the story, are just two, Paramedic and Sigint.
@jodlad8343 that's why Kojima made it easy and never included it on any of the collections or story recaps.
Please do more history of with Lucy. Her voice fits perfect for these types of videos.
I found metal gear first through revengeance status in 2022 and dove deeper. Ever since, metal gear as a whole has been my passion ever since. I can't think of anything in the world that I could love more than this franchise. I might not have been there when the legends were new, but I can still admire the series even after 7 years of neglect. Here's to Metal Gear Solid Delta! 🍷
Welcome brother I’ve been the same opinion as u since I was a kid replay the five solid games ever yearbnever gets old actually gets better the better u become at the mechanics all masterpieces apart from five which gameplay wise was a masterpiece
@@sumstuff6956 what was the most recent game when you became an enjoyer? Basically, are you someone who found the franchise after it was pretty much packed up (like me), or are you a veteran for metal gear?
@@EzraEpic I'm personally a veteran MGS player. i've played and beaten all of the main console ones and grew up playing 2 so many times that i know it like the back of my hand. I still Happily welcome you to the community. if you haven't experienced them yet or the older one, i recommend emulation. i just replayed through 4 and by todays standards, the ps2 MGS 2 hasn't aged too well mechanic wise but it's at least better in the HD Remaster which also comes with Peace Walker (one i skipped until a few years ago) these are accessible through rPCs3 if your have and your PC can handle emulation
@@moneyboy503 i run a 1660 super but I'm not too software savvy, and with the recent events of my computer being a nightmare to troubleshoot the current problem, I think I might wait for things of that sort.
Other than that, I'm glad to know that some people are accepting. I've seen some vets talk about how a bunch of people found rising and just ignored the rest of the story completely.
@@EzraEpic no stress, you know about it now when you're ready to look into it and there are plenty of tutorials. Mgs4 is VERY trick to get running though so don't feel afraid to comment again even if it's months down the line for help.
And nahh, I'm passionate about getting people to experience the things that I love in hopes they love them too, but forcing someone to experience something or to say their love is unjustified by hopping in during the middle is just gonna make someone not wanna experience it
Thanks for the vid Lucy!
I'm gonna buy the collection just for metal gear solid. I must be crazy 🤷
Me to😂
You can buy them separately too
I'm with you bro
Luckily I had a PS to get that first play memory burned into my mind. But I bought a PS3 just to play MGS4. And I just bought a gamecube to play Twin Snakes. They are all still so great.
Not one bit.
Thank you great video!
Thank you for the video i really enjoyed it
Great video!
Best stealth game series... another is commando. Really enjoyable.
Love the MGS serie. The Music is also awesome.
One of the most confusing story line in gaming history and still managed to pull it off
I do love the Mecha aspect of Metal Gear as well as some of the goofy aspects, along with the music
Metal Gear Solid will always be the Best game in history ever.
Forever a masterpiece and I totally would love to see a Metal Gear anime series with all the games in continuity
Standing here, I realized
"Although the character in the trailer looked the the Snake they knew and loved, fans would later learn that they were instead witnessing the birth of the legendary Big Boss"
Thank you for putting this in proper context! People seem to have forgotten this was kind of a twist reveal.
Honestly, I would like to see a timeline explained video for MGS.
Suggestive Gaming has a 6 hour timeline explination
Great video refresher for the Solid Series itself but uhm... Metal Gear Solid 3 launced in 2004. At least. The last time I know of.
Awesome content
Metal…Gear?
All you need to know about this series is that unlike an intron of history, it will be remembered as an exon!
I prefer Ultron
Any MGS video that includes Portable ops is a automatic W to me always ❤
I know the non canon games never get the love they deserve
@@solid_salsa it’s canon bro
I was gonna leave a comment saying you missed some games but I hope you make more lol
One of my favorite Konami games of all time!
10:31 mgs3 did not launch in 2003??
Glad I’m not the only one…talk about doin’ some research or fact-checking if you are unsure…
Can't wait for the remake.
I miss David Hayter as Snake. Nothing against Keiffer but it just didn't feel the same.
Big fan of the franchise, I think I played all the way through the demo for MGS lol
The Legend of Metal Gear Solid
What I love about Kojima games is that the journey starts with the first reveal trailer. Sins of the Father trailer for MGSV is still the best video game trailer of all time imo. Check the comments for that video and see.
I agree. Sins of the Father is the best game trailer ever made.
One of the best, if not the best, storytelling in the games
"Kept you waiting, huh?"
I think the best is yet to come.
Miss Lucy James... you need to finish your trilogy blind playthrough! Here's the link to her MGS and MGS2 playthroughs, which were amazingly fun. www.youtube.com/@lucyjamesgames/playlists
Mgs3 didn't come to pc, it will be on October, due to the master collection. Nice recap video!
"Kept you waiting huh?"

They're just a few days late lol
That British chick also got the release date of Snake Eater woefully incorrect @2003…
I don’t know how I am supposed to watch/enjoy/find useful a video where something as simple as a date on a calendar from less than 20-years-ago can be inaccurately shared…
@@jasondwilliams972 She's English, and I'm assuming that was just a typo in the script that wasn't done so deliberately.
I think this is the first video I have seen including Portable Ops and not calling it non-canon. It is just as strong as the other mainline entries and built the foundation of the Tactical Espionage Operations Peace Walker and MGS5 / V became. Well done Gamespot!
To those people saying it is not canon because Kojima said so... Until they release a version of MGS4 not having Portable Ops gameplay/cinematics in it I really couldn't care less. Takes me back to the time he said MGS was not about zombies when Survive released, just for MGS 5 to have zombie like aspects
PO can't become non-canon unless Konami decide to request every copy of MGS4 and PW back to edit out the PO references.
@jodlad8343 so you think that ape escape is canon too eh? It's referenced. Or what about zone of enders? That's in 2 games that can remember.
@@solid_salsa I believe the ape escape thing is with Solid Snake, so who knows what happened between 2 and 4, he might as well have been chasing monkeys. After God of War confirmed PS All Stars to be canon anything can be haha.
Zone of the Enders were a heavy influence for Hal when building MG Rex, so it does exist in the MG universe somehow, same with Policenauts. For all I know both Monster Hunter and Assassin's Creed is there too
Lucy is fantastic at these 👌🏼
I would love to get Twin Snakes re-released on Switch or its successor. I find MGS1 to be pretty hard to go back to after getting accustomed to first person shooting in MGS2 and 3.
Hype for Metal Gear Solid Delta Snake Eater 🟢🟢🟢
So instead of making more MGS games, Silicone Knights decided to work on Too Human? LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
Dont forget to cover Metal Gear Online sone time!
I sure would like to play MGS4 without having to buy a PS3
Funny. Just thought of playing this today after years in the shelf. And this just posted 2 hrs. Ago.
Goood vídeo !!!!
Fun fact: Metal Gear was influenced by the 1981 movie Escape From New York
Hideo Kojima did predict a lot of things with these games.

Not crazy,they are the best from the legend Kojima.😮
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater re-released on PC.What?
Actual game journalism🏆
How did you not talk about metal gear acid 1 and 2??? I've been replaying them on vita and even though they are card games they still tell a great story and are important in metal gear lore
Something's we just don't talk about.
The Acid series was great, but they're not canon and didn't really get a huge following compared to any of the mainline games or even Metal Gear Rising.
Didn't y'all do a Persona video?
W Snake!
Not a single word on how messy the story of the phantom pain was? Really? I love the Metal Gear Solid franchise but the ending, the big twist in the phantom pain left me speechless. It was just an unfinished game and with an inglorious ending.
Nice title.
This series is weird in that I used to love it a lot for how much it showed me that games can be "deep" but at the same time, while it can be deep, the first 3 MGS games aren't exactly the masterpieces that websites like Twitter make it out to be. MGS3 might just be one of the most overrated games of all time, but of course say that on Twitter and that game's cult will go after you.

I thought this was a racep of the story
MGS History Should Be Taught In Classes
But would you attend? You clearly didn't attend grammar lessons 🤭
MGSV, best in the series?!?!? What the f**k are you people smoking????
In my opinion, it was too much of a departure. I hated the mission based system, and the way the story was told. I have similar issues with BOTW. The gameplay and mechanics are great! But the way the story and progression are in the games are what bring it down.
Best gameplay but it's way less story focused which is kind of what we play mgs for.
@@DaRkLoRd-rc5yu I play MGS for the flow, which is essentially following story beats. The stop and go of the mission structure just takes me out of it. I hated the building up the base element, and I hated wasting time extracting this guy and that guy and the next guy, just to get to the next story beat.
So, when you use “we” you’re absolutely wrong! I played for the story, and all the whacky boss encounters. That’s why I personally like MGS3 the best, and MGSV is at the bottom.

I do like the gameplay alot in mgs1 I like it's simplicity. And mgs4 the game mechanics are crazy good. The first 2 acts especially with the warzone in the middle east and then the jungle are great imo and I love the stealth camo.
Also the story is great in mgs4 even if there are too many cutscenes I think it ties the story up really well and has great action scenes.

I love MGS, but calling Raiden a huge success is a huge reach. At the time people were livid?
How they’ve not made mgs anime is silly
the whole voice change is dumb because thats not even the snake we know its another person......its complex part of the story so of course he has a different voice

Kept you waiting, huh.
Dunno what a "Nintendo Callah" is but I want one.
and they need new pachinko ... lol 😆
metal gear wasnt made from its stealth action it was its incredible stoey telling and its ability to manipulate its players and immerse them
I see from the comments a lot of people like this dry emotionally disconnected delivery but it's just not doing it for me. eh, to each their own.
Didn't you just love hiding in that cardboard box
The history of Metal Gear Solid is also how war changed, it isn't about the Cold War anymore or how high a flag flies in the world. It's about war for hire and money....cold war is over, but the money wars have just begun, mercenaries for hire and getting much extemsive training than your usual armed forces, and who has the highest price for war and green bags
ded gem
As a lifelong fan of MGS, this is not a great telling of MGS history at all...
No metal gear rising 😒
Didn’t videogamedunkey already reviewed this? Why is this here?
this birthing person's voice is kind of grating tbh..
