Every time I try to play this, I can't. The controls are stiff, and evading enemies seems to be more random than skill (especially dogs; I am convinced you cannot sneak past, and only by way of glitch will they leave you alone).

I found binoculars that don't do shit, only to leave the trush I found them in to be immediately attacked by a soldier.

I try to sneak along, and I get caught up on single pixels that just out from boundaries, and stop me dead in my tracks.

Seriously, is this game just really bad or something? Because it seems like it sucks.

It's not that bad. I never completed the game though. I got stuck in this room where some armored vehicle runs over me. :/
But up until that point, I quite liked the game.

When the game came out that was all considered really good AI.

The "real" metal gear 1 is for the MSX. It's a lot better.

It's essentially almost the same game but yeah I agree, the MSX version is better but the MSX wasn't really available to us in the states back then so the first one I played was the NES version.

I haven't played 1 for years though so not sure how it plays to this day. I remember it being quite fun for its time.

fuck is an msx

James · #8

Japanese system.

Subsistence will include both the MSX versionf os MG1 and 2, so we'll see if those are any better. But fuck this NES version, because it really is unplayable.

Uh-oh! The truck have started to move!

Chojin · #10

Supafly345 · #11

It usually goes something like hide->sneak->grab->stab

It's not a system, it's a computer. I don't know anything else about it, but I'm pretty sure it's possible to get an emulator and play the "good" Metal Gear on it.

Yeah, I beat the NES Metal Gear. I'm basically awesome.

Guitar Woman · #14

Pfft, that's nothing. I beat Ninja Gaiden, so there!

camacazio · #15

edit: I have nothing on that

Either that or I've beaten games that are hard but I didn't realize it.

I hate how big boss always calls you when you get hurt by a trap and he's all like "lol I forgot to tell you about that"
You'd think that for a black op which the fate of the world is riding upon the guy in charge would be a little more responsible
