The MGS series has a theme of “gene, meme, scene, sense, peace, revenge, race”. I did not know that I missed out all these years on this game series, due to a bad assumption I made about Metal Gear being just an insignificant game, because Metal Slug took over my childhood.
If you’re gonna play Peace Walker, try to have a friend to play it with. It supports up to three friends. I’m not sure if the servers are still up, but the PSP version is local coop so would always work.
People will tell you to start with 3. I don’t personally think 3 is a good starting point. I think all other entry points are better. (Solid 1, Solid 2, Solid 4, Solid V, Ground Zeroes, Peace Walker. There is also Rising Revengence which I mentioned earlier, but it’s a different genre and type of game. The “Metal Gear” games and the games I haven’t listed are poor entry points and poor games).
😢 I no longer have friends who would play or cherish old times. I am a grown up, everybody is a grown up. And in India, people did not play as much of these titles, most of the games they have played are either the very popular flashy AAA garbage titles, or old school NES games. I am one of the fewer Indians who chased this stuff.
You’ll be able to have fun with it on your own too. Many of the larger side-missions benefit greatly from playing it with someone else, but for the main story it’s not as crucial, just because of the types of missions there are. Feel free to share your journey with us if you choose to get started on the series.
I will take a little while, since I am a bit busy now, with studying for job and all. The game grind needs to wait, but yesterday I downloaded MGS 1-4.
