Metal Gear: A Plot Discussion (Part One)

A G4 writer recounts the story of the Metal Gear franchise from memory after playing the Metal Gear Solid Essential Collection.

Fans are invited to participate and add to the discussion, correct him, and generally talk about the epic franchise.

Spoilers are allowed.

"Any discussion of this series should be done chronologically, and that leads off with Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. Set in the Cold War, players take control of the infamous Big Boss. The purpose of MGS3 is to set up the entire story of the franchise and there is no better way to show this than with the primary villain of the original Metal Gear games."
