What was your first MG Game?
For me it was MGS1 for Playstation in year 99 it hink. It could have been in 98, but i'm not sure about that.
Is there anyone who played original Metal Gears before MGS came out?

Re: What was your first MG Game?
I'm a younger guy, (19), so my first was Twin Snakes.
And let's not get into a debate as to whether it's good or not.

Re: What was your first MG Game?
I actually played the first metal Gear before MGS. My big brother owned Metal Gear and he owned Snake's Revenge...(hey we all make mistakes right?)
and then we rented then bought MGS in 98. I'll never forget..."look on the back of the CD case"

Re: What was your first MG Game?
I first played Metal Gear Solid on the Pizza Hut demo, then when I got a PSX, it was included on the demo disc. When it first came out I bought it and ever since I've been a die-hard fan. I've bought every game with Metal Gear in the title.

Re: What was your first MG Game?
Played MGS in a demo disc back in 98, I didn't understand a shit about the gameplay and/or the storyline (I was 11 years old back then, and since I didn't know too much english...) Then in 2004 I played Sons of Liberty in a friend's house. More mature and amazed by the storyline and gameplay characters, the rest is history XD.
Re: What was your first MG Game?
I guess it was MG for the NES. I remembered one of my friends playing MGS and it being really cool, but I never got to play it. When I played MG I thought that it would be similar. Since it was the NES version, it ended up sucking, and I actually hated it. I assumed that MGS would be the same, but then I saw it at Game Crazy for $3. I decided to play it, and, thank goodness, I was pleasantly surprised.
Re: What was your first MG Game?
My first MGS game was MGS2: Sons Of Liberty. If I remember right, I was around 17-18 years old (I'm 24 now), when I bought a pre-owned copy of MGS2, because I thought it looked like a fun game. Up untill that point, I was very much into games, but I was nowhere near being a true gamer. A bit more dedicated than the average casual gamer, but still no true gamer. So MGS2 was my turning point. I became more and more interested in games, and especially MGS. So MGS became my favourite series, and I became a gamer because of it.

Re: What was your first MG Game?
Metal Gear Solid Demo.... I fucking hated it. I was young and didn't understand it...
Hey wtf! i beat him up and he's alive! Ahh an alarm FUCK THIS GAME! And yeah
that was my first experience with it lol. Im 19 now so I was X amount of years old
im to lazy for math right now =d
My fist actual play through was MGS2 Substance I found it on the street disc only =D
haha how crazy is that! Then after that I got the other games. So all I have to say is
I LIKE THE MGS2 VERSION OF RAIDEN AND ENJOYED EVERY SECOND OF GAME PLAY
WITH HIM. That almost makes me sound as bad as all those people who say Final Fantasy 7
is the best Final Fantasy / rpg ever! But having played the other Metal Gear's I understand everyone's beef with MGS2 and Raiden.

Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes. After reading somewhere about the Psycho Mantis bossfight I got slightly interested in the game and when I saw it in the library I decided to borrow it and give it a shot. The opening sequence alone was enough to make me a fanboy...
Re: What was your first MG Game?
the msx2 metal gear, so when I saw the mgs in psx I thought it was shorter then mg2 and not much inovative since it reused most of mg2 stuff.

Re: What was your first MG Game?
my dad got me a ps2 and MGS2 for xmas in '02 and ive loved mgs (and kojima) since! i still remember playing it for the first time...good times man, good times...
Re: What was your first MG Game?
It was 1998/99 or so? So I was like 18/19, And My first was : Metal Gear Solid!
I remember hearing about it, awaiting it, then playing the demo....and I was hooked!
I got the game shortly after, And enjoyed it a little more than FF7 that I was also playing at the time!
Every MGS game has been something to look forward to, and each brings me back to that feeling of being a little kid eagerly awaiting a great videogame.
it's a shame that the future of MGS is kinda up in the air....I don't know if I can enjoy another MGS without "Snake".

Re: What was your first MG Game?
The original MGS. I remember importing the Japanese version and loving it despite not being able to understand a word of it. I muddled through eventually despite not knowing how to get Meryls codec freq.(You get given it eventually) and the heat sensitive keycards (completely fluked it after many hours of frustration!).

Re: What was your first MG Game?
MGS 1 on the psx.
A friend of mine had this new strange game imported from Japan, we of course could not speak japanese.
So he played and played and played, and he always failed.
Problem was, he couln´t understand a word, so it took a while after he realized that he needed to sneak, not to rush, and that kicking and punching wasn´t the right choice.
It took him 4 hours to get past the elevator! :_D
I watched it very closely, but I had no PSX at that time, so burning was no Option for me. half a year later, I had a PSX and I had Metal Gear Solid.
Everyone hated me for playing it all the time, they just wanted to shoot""
Doom and Duke fanatics they have been, I was the only MGS playing dude around there.
It was the German version, and it was horrible sometimes.
So after I managed to learn English (at 14 - 16) I started to watch and play games and movies in English, to get used to that language.
So after I´ve played MGS in English, I knew that´s one of the greatest Games ever made.
9 years later, I really should re-learn English. I tend to keep forgeting things so easily.
and after 5 years without English lessons, There´s not much left of English Grammar
Back to school or something...
Anyway, MGS was the first for me.
Im still playing it!!
