    I had an easy time with the original, but not the sequels. Too much nonsense going on with dragging bodies around and stuffing them into lockers.

    I throughly enjoyed all of the metal gear solid series, playing each game over again multiple times. I'll admit though I never bothered to play them on any high level of difficultly. Just normal and below. I read a lot of people talking about how hard the games are and specifically dragging bodies around and stuffing them into lockers... there is no need for that if you're on an easy difficulty level. I understand if it's not your style to play on easy but if your losing all the time and complaining about doing boring stuff that you don't have to do when playing on easy.... why not play it on easy!

    If you are already playing on easy maybe gamefaqs.com can help.

    I love it when people miss the point of Metal Gear Solid so thoroughly.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the first MGS on the PSone. I think the game was really well designed and made great use of the DualShock. The interactivity between the game and the user, especially the Psycho Mantis section with the moving pad and reading of your other Memory Card save files, is incredibly well done. Plus you need the original packaging Makes the overall experience much greater.

    I don't nessasarily suck at Metal Gear Solid. I'm just not a big fan of the slow ass action. I have the first one on PS1 and have never beaten it, but thats because I lost interest somewhere during the first level.

    Didn't find the game difficult, just laborious.

    I enjoyed the first MGS and didn't haw that much of a hard time with it, although I did die a few thousand times my first time playing. However, I suck horribly at TTS and Sake Eater and wish them both a horrible horrible death. Seriously, I can't get passed the tank in Twin Snakes and I always manage to fall off the first bridge in Snake Eater.

    I'm not sure why I never responded to this one, as I sucked magnanimously at these games in 2004, and I'm pretty sure I still do. For some reason, it's just really really hard for me to NOT die in them. I'm pretty good at first-person stealth games however, such as the Thief series.

    I had recently completed MGS3 but it's been awhile since I have played a mgs game. When I first played 3 it was very hard for me to play. I still am not used to it.

    beat'm both . i didnt like the story of 2 so i never played it . i was very intrested in the story of 3 ..but man it was a real long pain in the ass to beat and then the story get a bit on the dumb side .. it didnt have any replay value as the ps1 version had ,and the stupid crap with eating really pissed me off ..i hated that

    I've never played the originals , but I have owned both Sons of Liberty & Snake Eater.

    I thought they were amazing and finished both on "European Extreme" (euro release top difficulty setting, I think) without major problems or difficulty, but I LOVE FPS stealth style shooters & play them alot.

    The hardest thing I found were some of the Boss battles (that & playing as Raiden for most of MGS 2)
    Chet: It's futuristic, but that's a crate.

    Really, I am surprised so many people have problems with MGS; I suppose you are more action-gamers then?
    In MGS you need a bit of patience and study the way the enemies are moving for a while. This means that before you run into the middle of the room, you need to watch a bit in 1st person. Also, even if the enemies should notice you it is no problem; usually there are plenty of ways to hide. Just knock the enmies in sight unconscious and hide. Or leave the room.

    For the European Extreme Mode : I played it through too, but I did die often.

    Anyway, MGS is a great series, probably one of the best of all, and practicing it a bit is well worth it.

    I just can't play MGS. When I see an enemy at the screen, I have an urge to kill him fast... and that's how cameras spot me most of the time

    At first playing MGS I was like WTF why can't I just go in and kill people without having to sneak around them!

    But then in my young age, well not young what did it come out in 1997/98? I was 18 or so but anyways I learned to be patient and learned to stealth like a pro whbich was good for future games like Syphon Filter and Splinter Cell...

    MGS for the win can't wait for MGS4
