This was quite fun. Huge metal gear fan and have never touched the original two before. I got through metal gear and while it was fine and interesting to see the series roots, not particularly fun. I had a good time with metal gear 2 though, what a beautiful, fun, exciting time with a very metal gear story. So much of the series can be traced back to here. I was surprised to get such a “first draft” of metal gear solid and it was quite fun. I will say though, the random obtuseness just makes this game insane to play without a guide at some points. The chocolate in the yellow puddles? All of the elevators going to different floors? It made everything more complicated then it should be but I think that’s just the game design of the time. I really could have left that behind. Fun time though!
