  MGS:TTS... Awesome
Review created: 12/07/06
8 of 8 people found this review helpful.

This remake of the classic Playstation 1 hit Metal Gear Solid brings back everything that was awesome about the original game, and adds some new gameplay features, updated graphics engine, and a plethora of new videos.

MGS:TTS has been redone with the advanced graphics from Metal Gear Solid 2: The Sons Of Liberty, and also now allows you to shoot in a first person perspective. The game also now has the non-lethal M9 tranquilzer pistol along with the PSG1-T, the non-lethal sniper rifle. This makes it possible to complete the game without killing any opponents; adding a new angle to the game.

I highly recommend it to anyone who is a fan of the series, or if you are looking for an awesome action/adventure/espionage game to play!

  MGS: twin snakes...didn't live up to it's fame...for me

I had been told that if you love Splinter Cell, then you'd love this game. HA! That was wrong. It doesn't even compare. Like one of the reviews said, the dialog is kinda weird and cheesy. And the sound effects were even worse. I wouldn't spend more than $5 on this game. It is fun at times, but overall, kind of boring, and there are too many long movies and dialog and not enough action. I give this a thumbs down.

I bought this for my husband when i started watching him. I was amazed how the game look and i was really exited to find out the story. This is a part of his collection now he was even amazed of how much i bought it for. I love the first one but they did a good job making the same game for the gamecube and better picture.

  No debate over purchasing if you have a psone version
Review created: 08/30/08(updated 08/30/08)

There is no debate, you just have to answer one question: "Do I want to see the original Metal Gear Solid with extra cutscenes making the whole story fluid and more understandable, while having better graphics and the ability to shoot in first person view mode?"

If the answer to this question is no, then don't bother buying it. The game is exactly the same with only a minor diffence in gameplay. If you don't want to spend $20 to get it, you can always replay your old psone copy and just imagine the cutscenes that should have been added, slightly better graphics, and better transitional scenes, camera angles on transitions, etc. Everything you have no control over is generally better and the gameplay is exactly the same with the exception of being able to shoot at enemies when you hold down the button to look ahead of you(first person view).

The whole intro is different, it makes it much easier to understand and the better graphics play nicely on my Wii. I bought it even though I had recently purchased the repackaged version that included the other two ps2 titles, and I was not sorry for doing so.

I like it when a game is good, and when they can make a title like Metal Gear Solid even better, it's worth finding a copy. I managed to snag mine right here on Ebay for $20 and that's less than the cost of my original copy for psone.

If you already own a psone copy and you also have a gamecube or wii, then go ahead and spend a little to get it, unless you are only interested in moving on to bigger and better games. If you are a collector that enjoys great games, this is worth the price.

If you don't already own a copy then there's no question, buy this for gamecube/wii, buy VR missions for psone, and you won't be sorry. You'll have the best of both worlds and enjoy every minute of it.

I only have one problem with the graphics which is that it seems a little darker than the psone version, it made me instinctively check my brightness level setting for my tv. That doesn't make it so distracting that the gameplay is lessened, but if it were possible to lighten the image a bit I would.

  Get a PS3 absolutely free! This is 100% legitimate

I’m sure you've seen various 'free' gift scams on the Internet, but the following offers are NOT scams in any way, shape or form. This method has been covered by respectable sources such as CNN, MSNBC, Fox, Wired and G4.
The reason these companies make money, is because most people don't bother getting all the referrals. All you have to do is post it on eBay. They use us as advertisement by word of mouth which saves them tons of money that goes toward yours and my free gift.

There are many well known legitimate offers to choose from such as Blockbuster online, Stamp.com, Gamefly which are services you would regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not use them to get a free PS3 or cash (I did the Stamps.com for a 30 day free trial and it never cost me a penny and I received credit for it the same day). Look at the offers and choose the one that works for you. After signing up and completing your one offer, simply refer a few people (depending on the FREE prize you choose) to do the same under your link.
Step 1: Click this link
http://www.YourPS34free.com/index.php?ref=4991526
Step 2: Sign up and chose an account type (Referral is the easiest and best).
Step 3: Complete just 1 free trial offer (like Stamps.com, You will start a trial and can cancel it right after with no charge at all.)
Step 4: Refer to people to do the same. Just do what I’m doing and use eBay.

The Twin Snakes is an excellent cinematic experience and is definitely the beginning to the most well written game series ever: Metal Gear Solid. Worth anyone's time, especially a fan of the series.

  1st time player, extremely fun and immersive

Great game. I first became interested in the Metal Gear series when Solid Snake went in brawl, and being only a Nintendo owner for life, I picked up this game without playing any of the others (and hence can't compare it to the original or any of the other sequels). The game was very fun, a rather different play style and incredibly immersive. I felt like I was actually Snake, my heart was racing as I tried to sneak past guards, or make sure rooms weren't booby trapped. Also, the game had the best storyline of any game I've played, as well some really ingenious fights (specifically, Psycho Mantis).

The game time is pretty short though: on my first try, I think I played for 8 hours and on my fourth try (which was a speed run), it took me around 2 hours. There are also like 8 hours of cinematic and codec conversations that really make the game amazing though, as they really develop the story and characters. Definately one of the best games I've ever played.

Metal Gear Solid was an excellent game on the ps2. And a remake with MGS2 graphics, abilities, and some new weapons make for an even better experience. Though the original is an instant classic, for anyone who hasnt experienced MGS must play this.

  Very awsome remake for an awsome game series.
Review created: 05/07/08
by:

Meta Gear Solid. Some say it's the best game series ever. I say it's a very excellent one. Some will also bash the Twins Snakes for what ever various reasons. I say if you havent played a Metal Gear Solid game and have a Gamecube or Wii I say at least give this game a rental. First thing you should know is this game is NOT both Metal Gear Solid 1 and Metal Gear Solid 2 in the same game. It is just a remake of the first Metal Gear Solid game using the graphics engine and controls of the second game. Basically in the game you play a soldier code named Solid Snake who has to infiltrate a nuclear disposal facility on Shadow Moses Island and stop the terrorists who invaded the place before they launch a nuke. Snake soon finds out that the military was actually working on a bipedal tank called Metal Gear REX that could launch a nuke from pratically any terrain. Eventually he comes across a scientitst named Hal Emmerich (also known as Otacon) after fighing off the Cyborg Ninja. After rescuing Otacon and telling him that Metal Gear REX was not to help people but designed to be a weapon Snake goes on to take out an elite unit called FOXHOUND, save a gir named Meryl, take out his twin brother Liquid Snake, and destroy REX with some help from Otacon, Meryl, and a certain someone.

  Beating this game will mean I have to buy a PS2 4 MGS2
Review created: 04/15/08

This is the remake of the original Metal Gear Solid for the PSX.
I can't believe it took me this long to start playing this series -- but I'm glad I got to start it on the Gamecube.
Great controls, great graphics, tons of content from the start.
A must own for Gamecube and Wii owners.

If you are a Metal Gear Fan and you see this game somewhere (new or used), you'd better buy it. Not only just to play or have in your un-opened collection, but you should buy it before it disappears... GOOD LUCK!

Great game. I am a fan of the metal gear series and this is a top notch remake of the original Metal Gear Solid and not one of those unchanged re-released versions of old games that are only meant to milk the most out of the original. This game has all new cutscenes, graphics, and updated abilities that are from Sons of Liberty (also included!). At the used price today, If you have not played/finished the original, or if you are simply a fan of Metal Gear, this is a remake that won't dissapoint.

I love everything about this game. You can't Go Wrong with MGS. It is an Excellent Series. I hope this one has VR Missions. I love those for getting better before you tackle the real thing. This has been a extra long awaited title for me as I had sold my gamecube and rebought one for games just like this.

  A Good Addittion To Your Gamecube Library
Review created: 01/15/07
2 of 3 people found this review helpful.

I saw a reviewer say that there's too much cheesy dialog and cutscenes; they don't understand Metal Gear. The gameplay isn't revolutionary, but it works, but MGS is much more than that. It has a wonderful story and well-choreographed cutscenes, although it does begin to make you think "That doesn't seem possible." This game's story and dialog rivals great stories such as FFVII. Also, there are above-average voice actors that in some ways exceed the Japanese actors, which is rare. I recommend this only if you want an entertaining story and good long cutscenes. If you're looking for a great gameplay experience, try Splinter Cell, since sometimes you can play this game with heavy action, something you can't do in Splinter Cell.

  A retake on a playstation classic
Review created: 12/04/06
by:
4 of 4 people found this review helpful.

If espionage, suspense, tactical scenarios, and plenty of attitude sound like the makings of a great game for you, then Metal Gear Solid is it. The Twin Snakes is a complete remake for the Nintendo GameCube of the classic playstation title. Twin Snakes brings fans of the original adventure a more energetic retake of the personalities and action found within the original game. The Twin Snakes boasts some very impressive dynamic action similar to effects found in movies like "the Matrix." The voice acting has been completely redone, though personally the Playstation original had more charge and emotion. What you'll find is the same action intensive story with a few quirky twists in the in-between movies. If you want to revamp the graphical aspect to a tried and true gaming experience, then Twin Snakes is like a fresh breath of air.
