Like, from the moment, Snake drops off a bridge and does an amazing landing with the powerful soundtrack rocking on in the background. It was the fourth game I played only my newly acquired PS2 and while GTA III, Final Fantasy X, and Jak and Daxter are all great games, Sons of Liberty showcased the power of the PS2 to me very early on. This was actually the first game I played in the series, thanks to a random rental decision based on the name seeming somewhat familiar.

Plus the setting is less interesting mostly due to a lot of the game taking place in the Middle East, which by now, and even then, has been done to death. With that said, I’ve only finished it once because of how long it takes to get through everything.

Kojima was unleashed to his fullest, maximizing the full extent of the 50GB one could store on a single PS3 Blu-ray disc. It even went so far as to redeem Raiden by making him a complete bad ass. It was a beautiful send off letter to the character, with so many call backs and references that tried its hardest to literally close every single plot line the game had developed over its twenty year history, to that point. It was being touted as the last Metal Gear, which was understandable since all signs point to Old Snake dying and being too old for this shit, or something like that.

Guns of the Patriots was the reason why I finally forked over the insane amount of cash to get a PS3 when it launched in June 2008. It has a lot of good elements that would be improved upon, but ultimately it’s a bit sloppy in execution. It’s hard to play now with the cramped controls of the PSP, which is unfortunate because the narrative is excellent, accompanied by beautifully drawn cutscenes in the form of comic panels. It wasn’t as fully featured as its sequel, Peace Walker, but it was an important step for the franchise. This game also first introduced the Fulton system, where players could extract soldiers to use in operations via a balloon. It ditched the survival aspects of Snake Eater, but retained some of the key elements, including different outfits for operations and the missions themselves were designed with the PSP's portability in mind, as they were usually short and great for quick sessions on the go. Six years after the events of that game, Big Boss travels to South America to fight his old FOX unit as bad blood is rising.

Let’s get back into the 3D world of Metal Gear with Portable Ops, which serves as the first direct sequel to Snake Eater, continuing the backstory of how Big Boss rose to power and created Outer Heaven in Metal Gear. Removing all of those extra versions, we have exactly fifteen games to order, so let’s get to it. Now ranking ports of a game I could do, but that’s not important right now.

I will say I’m not going to include remakes like Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes, or HD collections, or collections of any sort, or mobile games like Metal Gear Solid Touch. This is going to be a tough one because most of these games are like children to me and ranking them isn’t going to be easy. With that said, I am glad he’s working on something completely new with Death Stranding, as it looks amazing even though no one, probably not even Kojima, knows what it is at this point, but we’re getting off track.

I kind of just want to see his vision for the series I discussed in my last article, 20 Video Game Franchises That Need To End ASAP, and how he could revive those properties. Thirty years! That is incredible and while I’m sad his version of the series has ended, I’m also glad he gets to go and do new things. Also, not a lot of people can say they steered a franchise for thirty years.

He’s one of gaming’s few directors who has a stylistic stamp to his games. Despite all of Hideo Kojima’s little quirks, I think he’s a genius and I swallow everything he sells, two-hour cut-scenes and all. I’ve said this in articles before, but the Metal Gear series is in my top three franchisees of all time.
