What do you think is your favorite Kojima game/series you have played?

For me it's definetly Metal Gear Series... Snatcher comes as a good second.
But i have not played Policenauts yet so i can't say nothing about that yet, but i'm expecting it to be very good.

It's really hard. All of those games are pure gold. But i'd have to go with Metal Gear. As you said, Snatcher comes as a good second :grin:

Awww, no fair! I don't know what Policenauts is all about~ Ah well. I'd probably say Metal Gear, with what I know. Just because it's a little more well-rounded than Snatcher.

Policenauts for me. I have a real fondness for that game. (Noooo, really?!)

As of now it's MGS1, not only is it the first Kojima game I've ever played, it's also the best of the MGS series.

Though I believe Policenauts might be on top after I've played the english translation. I did play the game without understanding much of the story, but I can say that I prefer the setting of Policenauts over MGS and Snatcher. I also love the soundtrack more than I do in any other Kojima game. (Except "Eternal Promise" from Snatcher, PC Engine, the greatest song in any Kojima game ever!)

Best game? MetalGear 2: Solid Snake.
Best series? Snatcher

I would have preferred to have played Policenauts in English before answering the question, though.

As much as I like the series that he's mostly known for, I voted for Snatcher. Its story, its characters, its backgrounds, its plot twists, and its soundtrack (especially in the PC88, MSX, and PC Engine versions), are more than enough to keep me coming back for more.

I hope to get Policenauts one day, and all 4 versions of it, though. I've heard that it makes anything else that Kojima made (regardless of how good it is), look like junk in comparison.

Edited to add: You may be wondering why I listed the PC88, MSX and PC Engine soundtracks as my favorite Snatcher soundtracks by far. That's because they featured most of my favorite Snatcher songs, some of which were either changed dramatically, or removed alltogether in subsequent versions of the game, like "Theme of Snatcher Parts 1 & 2", "Theme of Jamie" "Jingle Bell 2042", "Theme of Outer Heaven", "Theme of Izabel", "Theme of Catherine" "Theme of Junker", "Blow up Tricycle" "Faded Memories" and "Beyond Sorrows", easily the most depressing song ever heard in a video game.

Well, I would have preferred to have played Policenauts in English before voting. But heh, I voted Metal Gear (merely for MGS alone); which has the clear advantage (having six games in the series up to now). Bit unfair on the rest of the games, really.

Snatcher is my second choice, followed by MG2.

All right, who else voted Policenauts?

I'd probably have to vouch for Snatcher, namely because I'm such a big fan of Bladerunner.

I would've had I voted today as opposed to yesterday... I've been playing Policenauts non-stop, even though I only understand fractions of it, and I've been enjoying it so much.... It's got this charm of being kindof almost... I don't know, low-key? And the characters, nice, multi-tiered... It's just.... really great. Super understatement there lol~


...Never has catching a fly been so.... Guhahahaha!

Never played Policenauts but even if I did I'd probably still pick Metal Gear. It's my favorite game series ever. I'm not even a die-hard video gamer anymore and I'm still going out of my way to play MGS4: GoTP, and I'll probably end up being addicted to it. Out of all the Metal Gear games, MGS2 is my all-time favorite.
