The Metal Gear Solid series is one of the most unique series in gaming ever. While most games try to shock you to be remembered, the Metal Gear Solid’s will be remembered for more subtle things along with some of its crazy cut scenes that were either epic or tugged at the heart strings. Let’s take a trip down memory lane.
Metal Gear Solid bosses are often weird, wacky, or just downright insane. But which are the best ones? Find out here.
This is a hard list to make… so many good bosses in the series.
I really enjoyed Psycho Mantis as a kid, I was blown away by the fact he could make my controller rumble and read my save games! And the tactics to beat him were crazy.
I’d put him in #1 with The End in 2nd.
Going through this list desperatly makes me want a remake of 1 and then a 4k remaster with other better effect touch for mgs 2-4.
Cmon konami give us the ultimate mgs collection charge what you want ill pay it.
Just give me upgraded versions of the games that i can play all on one console.
You want ANOTHER remake of 1? Twin Snakes not enough? There should be a limit on remakes imo. Reboots are fine tho.
"to soon" = "I didn't play at launch" = irrelevant
Nope not enough that remake came to soon as it was the gen after.
We are now 3 gens later so yea remake it again or give us a 4k version with other graphical updates aswell.
Twin Snakes butchered MGS1, but even if it didn't, that game is still 20 years old and outdated. The original trilogy could all do with a ground up remake. Fortunately for people like you though, you'll not be forced at gunpoint to buy it if you don't want it.
The Olga fight is a bit harsh, she pulled off some neat tricks like using the tarp to hide herself (while showing off the cloth physics) and blinding you with lights you had to shoot out (a new mechanic).
The Fear is really harsh. Yes with the thermal goggles he's easily defeated but it's easy enough to miss the thermal goggles before fighting him. The fact that you can take advantage of how he frequently gets hungry during the fight adds to the options too.
How is Fortune ranked higher than both the above?
Liquid Ocelot at 29? C'mon that fight was epic, you get a whole new control scheme just for that fight and it's got tons of well thought out fan service.
Revolver Ocelot MGS1 fight at 9? You just ran around in a circle.
Though I do agree with your #1. The Boss fight was peak MGS, right down to pressing square to shoot the final bullet.
I think most people would say The End or Mantis, partly for the whole meta experience. Definitely great battles and Mantis messed with EVERYONE. That was the moment that people realized Kojima is a legendary troll in the making.
For me, though, The Boss is #1, no question. That battle was arguably the most significant in the series and was just legendary. Dare I say, my favorite boss battle, period.
From Metal Gear Solid remakes to The Last of Us Factions, The Game Awards could be full of surprises if these dream announcements appear.
How has it been milked? We’ve had 3 games since 2007
That’s 14 years and by the time it comes out it will have been at least 16
Yea no Ken Levine is a bummer.
Though I would like to see his new game revealed.
I’d have to agree with foxtrot on this one, I don’t think “milk” is the word you were looking for lol.
No Levine is a bummer but I heard 2k is producing his new game so I’m sure he’s advising where he can. I also choose to believe they wouldn’t bring it back unless they had good ideas. We’ll see.
If they ruin the series with modern garbage politics I will be more upset then anyone. As of now I think they are capable of putting out a competent bioshock.
I just want alot of Metal Gear Solid and Final Fantasy.
The rumoured Chrono Cross would be nice aswell.
I think there's a real chance the last of us factions will show up. The show comes out in February and this is the game awards that every gamer can watch. It's good advertising for their show and for all gamers to see the crazy good gameplay. If it's just the last of us 2 gameplay in even just team death matches, I'm in. That combat was still the best I've ever seen or experienced and the random gameplay clips I've seen of other gamers is crazy too. So many things I didnt even think were part of it are also there.
Replies(1)LoU MP and a MGS remake would be a dream for me…. I’d get a stealth SP and MP game to look forward to 🤤
A metal gear solid remake would be amazing, I beat that game like 6 times back on ps1.
An artist on Twitter has created a piece of fanart that crosses over the princesses from Super Mario with Metal Gear Solid and the result is ridiculously awesome.
Old Snake microwave scene.
Raiden vs vamp and liquid vs solid snake scenes. I like all the scenes, mgs is the best....
for me (sorry but I can't remember the name of the character) it was when I was asked to put my controller on the floor and it was moved by telekinesis. That was a defining moment for me as a gamer. And fighting The End! Loved that and managed to kill his parrot... didn't taste nice though. I might as well throw in making snake eat too much and then spinning him round in the viewer. Kojima thinks of everything. If anyone hasn't tried that yet, I recommend it
The end of Metal Gear Solid 3.
She was a true patriot

One of the very few games to ever almost make me shed man tears
