fun fact: the cigarette being used before hang-gliding in MG2 is to calm Snake's nerves before he jumps. loved the video, always love a big project to watch!
As a programmer the respawning items is probably just to save system memory/dev time and because it would make the passcode/saving more complex to implement.
I like to imagine that when Big Boss switches frequencies in MG1, it's actually switching from the real Big Boss to Venom. As in now Venom is acting as Big Boss over the radio and trying to misdirect Snake as he gets closer in completing his mission
I randomly decided I wanted to get into the Metal Gear series but I'm a stickler that needs to start at the beginning. Found your channel a last month when Part 1 of MG2 was put out. You really helped put some things into perspective as I am TERRIBLE at old school games. Thank you, Trav. Now I start MGS.
I think if a Metal Gear movie is ever made, it should be Metal Gear Solid 1 but with flashbacks of MG and MG2: Solid Snake throughout like he is having PTSD flashbacks. That was what I did in my own draft of a movie script
I originally got myself an MSX emulator to play it, before I got a copy of MGS3S to play it on my PS2. It's a *trip* for sure, but you'll most likely have a good time. Half of your experience is going to be "oh, *that's* where Metal Gear Solid got that" and the other half is going to be "I need Kojima's drugs."
It will be. Only downside is it was poorly optimized so 90% of the data will need to be downloaded. They used a small cart and the files are truly massive, like close to 100 gigs because they didn't properly optimize the ports.
Not a swastika, it's a manji symbol. It's facing the other way. It's also used in Blade of the Immortal, as the symbol for.... the guy named Manji. Literally the only reason I even know.
Omg wow this is incredible! So proud of you man I love this. Thank you for giving my favorite game series the respect and quality it deserves. Thank you, you've truly made me so happy
7:12 That's a manji, not a swastika (The top bent "arm" of the symbol points right on a swastika, left on a manji). Yes, probably everyone would have thought it was a swastika had the game been released like that in the west, but there is a distinction.
Honestly it does give some extra depth to Outer Heaven that later shines through the more the series discusses the philosophy of it all. Like... why is the nation-state of war Buddhist?
The MSX computers weren't only popular in Japan, but also Taiwan, South Korea, Europe, Brazil and the Middle-East. Famous companies like Sony, Philips, Panasonic, Sanyo, NEC, among others, all made MSX machines. It's just that ASCII and Microsoft had a fallout before the US launch, meaning it was never launched there in the first place :/
When I saw this, I thought it was just talking about Metal Gear 2:Snake's Revenge on NES and was like, "2 hours for an NES game? You mad lad." But now I'm here, and I see it's more than that, and I'm all for it. At least your coverage of Snake's Revenge is much shorter than Rerez's take, though they took too long to get into the game.
Oh man, I can't wait for the MGS 3 remake, and great vid btw! Also I am Czech, so I can translate what Dr Marv said, for anyone interested. Marv: "This is Marv. What should I do? We just want peace."
Came here after the master collection as it’s one of the few videos that goes real in depth on the actual games. Wish I could’ve experienced these unspoiled, but of course I knew what happened because, like most people, my first exposure to these games was in the briefing section of MGS since the game would make a whole lot less sense without it
All most popular sentences in the MG serie: (no problems. ;) ) Snake, Snake respond, Snake, SNAAAAAAAKE ! Kept you waiting uh ? **Sins of the father play** It's a Metal Gear ! ! Colonel, i m trying to sneak but i m dummy thicc, and the clap of my a## keeps alerting the guards.
snakes revenge is the first metal gear game i ever played. i still love the game and play it on my nes mini. what i really love about it is the music. when i finished it for the first time and went and got metal gear 1. i was so disapointed yeah i got the nes port and i hated it so much. still do.
So in short and still non-spoilery way are the 2D Metal gear games like this : Metal Gear (MSX): Solid Snake goes to Outer Heaven to destroy Metal Gear in DDR-style . Metal Gear (NES): Solidified Snack stumbles into Outta Compton to stop Skynet because Macintosh Computers are the Devil .(Sounds reasonable) Snakes Revenge (NES) : Lt. Beef Steak stops Evil purple Robocop and must destroy his hot ride that is called in pure coincidence Metal Gear 2 because the carbon output of this thing is nuclear devastating . Metal Gear 2 (MSX): Solid Snake needs a Vacation and infiltrates zanzibar Lands Center Parks to destroy the named attentionly Metal Gear 2 while defeating the B1G B0SS of this island and their terrorist force with hot musical jams because terrorism shouldnt have Vacations . (Sounds Reasonable) Now im ready to experience the MGS-series !
Just recently got into the series after years of curiosity, luckily got a ps Vita earlier this year and have been sucked in hard by these games. I'll probably skip out on the msx games so thank you for making this, definitely subbing and can't wait to see you cover the rest of the games!
Long time ago. There's a lot of metal. Lots of gears. And a slew of warfare. And endless supply of Amazon Goodies and technology to stop the warring maniacs. And bring peace. At some point. Even with a a Japanese home consoles that was only meant for scrollers and high runs. This. That Trav Story of. *Metal Gear theme*
when the collection comes out soon everyone should use this amazing video as a guide to help new players to the older metal gear ie. metal gear 1 msx and metal gear 2 solid snake snake revernage highly recommnaded using this video (;
What I've always thought is that Metal Gear 2 is arguably the best game of the series alongside Metal Gear Solid 1 and Metal Gear Solid 3. Still can't stand all that garbage they throw into the "before"-time period after Solid 3 with Solid V (and to a lesser extent Peace Walker) that mainly just serves to make the original games seem less meaningful and kind of just odd at parts storywise.
As a kid I decided to ask for the NES Metal Gear on a whim, and I ended up really liking it. But I still never did beat the game the proper intended way. I always had trouble getting 4 class stars and getting Jennifer to give me the rocket launcher. I never had enough C4 to destroy the computer, but there was this trick where you could walk into the doorframe right as you enter the super computer room and it would put you right into the Big Boss fight without ever triggering the countdown. So I always beat the game that way instead since it was so much easier. The plot of the NES game was completely crazy, with all kinds of made up names for characters in the instruction manual. I never played Snake's Revenge but I remember being extremely confused when I first played Metal Gear Solid on PS1 with the NES game as my only reference.
Saw the part where you could just stand to one side and pummel the Hind-D with grenades without taking a single bullet. Literally replayed the game to prove it to myself as legit. ... How did I miss that trick after so many years? 😂
this video is great. as I've just played halo reach with it being in my opinion one of the best games in existence I cant wait for you to make a return to that series as we were promised in the ultrakill video.
The Metal Gear 1 ports section is slightly outdated since we (somewhat recently) got a release on GOG which is probably more accessible for players today. There’s also the Master Collection, but I’m assuming that wasn’t included since it’s not out yet :)
I'm late to this video, but I was playing the original MSX2 version of Metal Gear and it has some weird differences from the mobile/MGS3 Subsistence version. Bosses don't flash red to show they're taking damage, there's no question mark above Snake when he punches a fake wall so you can only rely on the sound, rations don't heal you if you take lethal damage with them equipped, the security camera lasers shoot you even if you're in the cardboard box and standing still, and other weird things that make the first version a lot less fun to play.
3:38 - 3:40 There's a little audio hiccup there, but there are also a couple others in the whole thing but it's not TOO distracting...I think? It's interesting seeing all the edited differences (both additions and removals) from the original videos, like the example of the spas shotgun using Half Life. XD
ok aside from the sponsor im getting major deja vu like i could have sworn i saw this a month back while bingeing your content (love your transformers vids btw) so when i saw the upload date was kinda suprised it was uploaded today (nvm just noticed it was a compalation video whoops)
Actually Trav, that swastika on the Outer Heaven logo was a Buddhist swastika because of both how the ends are designed and its facing the opposite and original way they were designed before the nazi's swiped it
Sort of. I rewrote some parts, put in some corrections, added more jokes, and included Part 2 of the Metal Gear 2 video that hadn't previously been in a video.
Bah, you can smoke one pack just to try it and be fine. If you're gonna do it just once though get some good smokes. Like Dunhills. If flavors weren't outlawed I'd suggest a German brand that I used to enjoy. It's an expensive habit though, if you're broke don't make it a regular thing.

2 plus hours! Wowza!
Hope everything is going ok with you Trav, I know things were rough recently.
It's just a merged edition of all of his MG videos
@@gamboldo1 I know, it's just you don't get 2 plus hour Trav Guy videos often.
1:06:47 They have meshed at least Metal Gear and Castlevania together.
It's called Boktai.
I think if a Metal Gear movie is ever made, it should be Metal Gear Solid 1 but with flashbacks of MG and MG2: Solid Snake throughout like he is having PTSD flashbacks. That was what I did in my own draft of a movie script
I can't wait to try out Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake by myself when the collection releases in October. Seems very fun!
I originally got myself an MSX emulator to play it, before I got a copy of MGS3S to play it on my PS2. It's a *trip* for sure, but you'll most likely have a good time.

Lol that is exactly how I felt
looking at these games, sometimes i wonder how we got cyborg skeletons. this game has truly evolved
Finally got the Metal Gear Solid Master Collection to look forward too... provided it isn't a crappy port and runs well.
It will be. Only downside is it was poorly optimized so 90% of the data will need to be downloaded. They used a small cart and the files are truly massive, like close to 100 gigs because they didn't properly optimize the ports.
this was the moment Trav Guy became Heisenberg.
really embracing metal gear's stealth gameplay by having the video unlisted /j
1:32:08 “Was I about to say rubber missiles? What am I talking about?” You’re talking about Yakuza
Not a swastika, it's a manji symbol. It's facing the other way.
It's also used in Blade of the Immortal, as the symbol for.... the guy named Manji. Literally the only reason I even know.
Omg wow this is incredible! So proud of you man I love this. Thank you for giving my favorite game series the respect and quality it deserves. Thank you, you've truly made me so happy
What a lovely series of remasters! Delightfully surprised
7:12 That's a manji, not a swastika (The top bent "arm" of the symbol points right on a swastika, left on a manji). Yes, probably everyone would have thought it was a swastika had the game been released like that in the west, but there is a distinction.
Honestly it does give some extra depth to Outer Heaven that later shines through the more the series discusses the philosophy of it all. Like... why is the nation-state of war Buddhist?
I've already rewatched the first couple MG videos, don't mind watching it all again!
10:52 small detail but i like that you re-recorded this shot for the sake of consistency
holy shit the manual solid snake really does look like todd howard
I was not expecting you to do both NES and MSX games. Nice video!
37:12 you could press down and avoid the bullet on that part
38:11 you could use transceivers to make them respawn
I'm very ready for more Metal Gear in the future, especially with the Master Collection and Delta coming out. Love this series so fucking much
Colonel Campbell to Snake in MG2: "Can you crawl around on the ground like a baby?"
Yes!!! A two hour video about the old Metal Gear games. I love you man!!!
how you don't know where snake revenge takes place, of course takes place in Ishkabibil ,the capital of teristan
yes, real... as stated in manual
Could not ask for a better birthday present. Thank you
