  • I remember playing MGS1 and loving the story and thinking Snake was the most badass character I'd ever seen. I thought MGS1 was only one of those games that would just end right there and not have sequels (I was young, so I didn't know it was on the SNES) then I saw this commercial, and I was like "FUCK! I NEED A PS2!"...Hearing Liquid's voice saying "i've been waiting for this!" just had me sold completely! ahh...good times. :)

  • Solid Snake: RAIDEN GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!! Im Killing the bad guys, your just a pussy.

  • i remember buying mgs on ps1 not knowing anything about it, but it looked like something i never played before judging from the back of the game case, so i had my dad buy it, went home, and spent the whole night on it... i had never been so hooked on a game far as story goes.. despite its real time cutscenes with blurry pixal bobbing heads, i was still fully immersed in on it!!

  • Did you notice around 0:15 they show Snake instead of Raiden during the boss battle with Fortune? Godddddd why the fuck did they create Raiden?

  • @TommyAK13

    Noob! Go do your homework.

  • @PRY13 Dude... I played this game in 2001 when it came out (and I was 12 years old), so you can shut the fuck up. After 10 years am I really going to remember that they show Snake fighting Fortune instead of Raiden in relation to the S3 plan? And you know I've never heard of anyone who uses the word "noob" ever not being a complete fucking loser? That's because it's only used by pathetic faggots who need to feel that they are good at something. Or maybe you are just a tranny like Raiden...

  • @TommyAK13

    That's a lot to come from someone, who fails to understand that Raiden was brought up due to a survey conducted among female fans and discovering that one was not pleased with older looking male characters. What's a matter kid? You jealous of Raiden? Get over it kid he's a series of polygons. He represents a series of young soldiers that face combat who have been exposed to trauma early in life but retreated to video games for hobby or PTSD recovery serving our country proudly.

  • @PRY13 There's a difference between "failing to understand" something, and just not knowing about something. Lol not everyone does a thorough investigation into why a character is created. Secondly, I'm not really that pissed that we didn't get to play as Snake, what sucks, IMO, is that the guy who replaced Snake in MGS2 was not cool at all. Sorry, but I don't really enjoy playing as a boy/girl soldier. They should've made Raiden something like Johnny only without the shitting himself aspect.

  • @TommyAK13

    Nothings thorough about it. That was found in the Document of MGS2. Certain fans, bought it to better understand the whole concept of making a multimedia project and use it as a learning tool for our graphic design courses at the time aside from other aspects like gaming music. Recommended if you come across it.

  • @PRY13 Ok, well I'm in business so I'm not one of those fans. I almost hate bitching about Raiden because so many people do it, but at the same time there is a reason for that. Like I said, they should've made Raiden something like Akiba/Johnny, without the bowel issues. And then they could've made the guy who shits himself all the time look like Raiden lol.

  • @TommyAK13 Raiden likes men lol.

  • @TommyAK13 A lot of my friends and people who like Raiden played metal gear 2 before one. They started out with sons of liberty (this is when metal gear got really popular) and back track to the first one. Coming from Metal Gear one, playing Snake in the beginning of 2 got me hyped up! Then Raiden came in and yeh...lol. I was always asking myself when do I get to play Snake again.

  • @vangstr6 True that. Raiden belongs in tranny porn, not MGS.

  • Did you say nerd?

  • @OfficerMickey1 .......... IKR! this in my opinion is still the shit! way better than black ops! i remember this commercial back then! so damn nostalgic!!!!>~<

  • God I remember this!

    This was for the ps2 and it's still better than Black Ops.... I said it

  • The odd numbered Metal Gear Solid games are the best ones.

  • @cpohlhammer I dunno, Metal Gear 2 Solid Snake on MSX was a pretty good game given how old it is.

  • "Steal? No no is coming back as an HD version for PS3"

  • than later released for other platforms

  • They never give videogame commercials anymore

  • boo

  • spoilers in the commercial

  • I hope they include all these TV spots from the old games on the MGS HD Collection as bonus material.

  • @Kenshiro026 yaa and vr missions from substice and also demo thether cuz i bet u could do more with it like add urself with ps eye or kaneck if thaere useing the tech from kong fu live it would be great to be snake

  • holy fuck I nostalgiad

  • Snake!!!

  • I remember i beat the 1st part on the ship, and thought i had actually beat the game. and then i hear someone being referred to as Snake, but with a very different voice. I'm thinking, "who the hell is this..?"

    little did i know....it was Raiden..throughout the rest of the game

  • @futurebestseller84 Lol I thought the same.

  • awesome commercial for an awesome game! I beat Crysis 2 recently and it reminded me of MGS2 a lot

    Can't wait to see what Kojima is cooking for E3 2011

  • when does this come out?

  • @airsoftguy4444 LMFAO

  • @airsoftguy4444 Ehm...9 years ago..

  • @airsoftguy4444  Are you kidding? Lol this was released in 2001 dude xD

  • @airsoftguy4444 was just kidding xD i can see the title :p

  • I will never forgive Kojima that he put away Solid Snake and get there Raiden :/ I love MGS2 but Raiden sucked balls.

  • if i hear one more thing about raiden i swear someone getting fucking shot dead... there are reasons involving the story for him being there he's a good protagonist . he ends up more of like the student and snake is the mentor. if you pay attention to the story you will know. i love snake to but the way i see it it was a good move and a smart one.

  • @chainer211 yeah but they could do something like switching between Raiden and Snake. Episode at the tanker was fuckin awesome but definitelly too short. If KONAMI would did this switch , Im prety sure it would be better. I didn't like Raiden and I still don't like him.

  • @chainer211 FINALLY someone agrees with me haha

  • iam gonna go play metal gear booo yahh

  • i rember this commercial

  • MetL gear solid is such a awrsom series.. To bad snake is dead :'( and im not lookn forward to rising since it looks nothing like metal gear. For me peace walker was truly the next metal gear game even tho it was on psp i played all the time :)

  • ah, i miss the metal gear theme, damn russians.

  • only ps2? i seem to remeber the idots decided to put it out on xbox too,, i cant belive the next one with raiden will be on both current gen consoles,, that just sucks,, it needs to stay ps3 exclusive,,

    who agrees that remaking the first for the gamecube was fuckin GAY,, we couldnt get it on the ps2 but gamecube got it? christ sum developers are idiots,,

  • 0:17 What the hell...SNAKE!?

  • It couldn't have even more spoilers than it has.

  • Masterpiece

  • well im 24 and I started playing metal gear solid on the ps1 when it came out in 98, I was 12 and I did understand the story back then...my first impression was that the game was a fucking movie and thats why I loved it. I never skipped the cutscenes, I became a metal gear android lol.

  • @tmh1717 Yea me too. I was 10 when I played it, and I loved and still love the cut scenes in Metal Gear Solid. It's my favorite game of all time.

  • @AKAKingJames

    STRAIGHT UP!!!! MGS IS MY MOST FAVORITE GAME OF ALL TIME TOO!!!

  • too much spoilers in the spot

  • Gay Raiden, GET OUT OF HERE!

    Cyborg ninja Raiden from MGS4, GET IN HERE

  • @jet4212006 LMFAO

  • remember this commerical

    it played during Smackdown and Raw is War back in the days

  • @mastergradeone

    i miss those days when sony was kicking everyone's ass and the WWF/E was still awesome

  • "IT ROCKS"

  • way too short game if u ask me. :(

  • epic ass trailer.

  • xD that is a funny part "Raiden get out of here!" my friends will die of laughter if they c this. LMFAO

  • "Raiden, Get out of here!"

    -My thoughts exactly...

  • Stop crying like a 14 years old fanboy aobut Raiden for fucks sake, Raiden as a protagonist in MGS2 > Snake as a protagonist in MGS2. Why? Because MGS2's plot is mindblowing and amazing, and it wouldn't work without Raiden. But you ignorant fanboys are too dumb to realize this, MGs is deep and about messages. You fans only think about "lol snaek is badas guys!!111"

  • @ClickForOutkast

    I couldn't have said it better myself.

  • @RiveraMichaelAnthony Hahahhahaha you read my mind too

  • @RiveraMichaelAnthony EXCELLENT!

  • @RiveraMichaelAnthony raiden go man up my thoughts exactly

  • @RiveraMichaelAnthony haha you're good :)

  • Oh wow, there's like two spoilers in that. PRETTY BIG ONES.

  • if you beat the first one, then play this, and watch al of the cutscenes so you really know whats goin on, this is the best game series ever.

  • i played metal gear solid 1 and 2 on playstation

    it was a pretty good series till mgs3 came out and part 4

    its nothing like metal gear solid 1

    and thats why it sucks....

  • @predatortheme

    Speak for yourself... MGS 2 through 4 did a near perfect job at ting the whole story line together while still leaving room for another instalment to keep the series alive. I agree that MGS1 is the best overall but the others are great as well, this comnig from a guy who's played the series since part 1 in 98.

    This is snake...I made it to the sneaking point.

    Excellent snake, age hasn't slowed you down one bit.

  • i loved mgs1 and mgs2 and the mgs1 vr training cd :D

    but metal gear solid becaome really stupid, since it played on jungle and had no metal gear feeling anymore, and then so much people that i didnt even knew apeard. such confusing

  • Steal? No, no. I'm just taking it back.

  • I love this game. I think this game was ahead of it's time.

  • I got this in 2002, sold it (after years of playing), brought it back, sold it, brought it back, and now I still have it, yet don't play it. Might as well keep it this time.

  • During the PS2 period when I wanted one I was around 11 or 12 don't remember, but it seemed as if every single commercial for any game on my list made me foam in the mouth. I think MGS2, FFX, and GTAIII were the commercials that made me cry quietly to myself.

  • if u look real close at 0:18 its snake fightin fortune not raiden

  • I rember this ad on TV and after playing the Demo, I knew I had to get this game. Best game before MGS4. I actually like Raiden and Snake, and accept the entire series canon as what it is including the awesome codec segments.

    Yes, Snake is awesome, but Raiden is awesome too. Even if Snake is more awesome.

  • @FallOffAClift If you really accepted the series then you would hate MGS4.

  • @TronZEROPi

    Huh? MGS4 was awesome! It's one of the best games I've ever played. I don't know why you didn't like it.

  • @FallOffAClift It was a horrible game and the story was even worse then the game play. The whole point to Big Boss is that he's pure evil and to try to make him off as a good guy was either an attempted to tell people like you to **** off or a clear sign that Kojima has given up on life.

  • @TronZEROPi

    Did you play MGS3? That game made Big Boss into a sympathetic character. I feel like it would have been a great disservice to portray Big Boss as pure evil in MGS4. The prequel right before MGS4, made everything so perfect. I loved the story, but eh your mileage may vary. Sorry to hear you didn't like it man.

  • @FallOffAClift I'm with you dude. Mgs3 was the best in the series for me and mgs4 was a good conclusion to the events of mgs2 and 3

  • @cmanning525 Then you missed the point of both MGS2 and 3.

  • @TronZEROPi umm, i think your the one that missed the point to 2 and 3 if your bitching about how 4 went.

  • @cmanning525 The entire point to the first three MGS games was that people have to take responsibility for themselves. MGS4 was a total abandonment of this ideal.

  • @TronZEROPi

    Nice oversimplification. "People have to take responsibility for themselves"? WTF does that even mean? Anyone could throw words together, you know.

    Such as: "The point of the first three MGS games was that anyone you ever trusted will betray you".

  • @xRapidDavex It means that people are responsible for their own actions. Look at Grey Fox, he didn't take responsibility for himself and it ended up ruining Naomi's and Snake's lives as well as his own.

  • @TronZEROPi

    Congratulations on coming up with on example from one game. News flash buddy: MGS4 was all about atonement. Way to counter your own point with another of your own point.

  • @TronZEROPi

    Congratulations on coming up with on example from one game. News flash buddy: MGS4 was all about atonement. Way to counter your own point with another of your own point.

  • @xRapidDavex No it wasn't, MGS4 was about blaming others for you're own sins. All Ocelot, Eva, Naomi and Big Boss did was blame Snake for things he didn't do because they were cowards.

  • @FallOffAClift Big Boss shouldn't have been in MGS4 at all and it doesn't matter if he's sympathetic character, he chose to be a coward that chose to hurt others to make him fell better about himself.

  • @TronZEROPi

    "Big Boss .... chose to be a coward that chose to hurt others to make him fell better about himself."

    --------------

    Did you even play Peace Walker? This video will explain more than I can ever put in a comment.

    watch?v=fATCFxVqCo4

  • @xRapidDavex Have you played Metal Gear Solid, did you some how miss the fact that Big Boss was brain washing people into thinking that he was their savior? What Kojima Productions did with Big Boss in MGS4 and on word was never supposed to have happened and no matter how much whining you do it will always be a bad move that ruined the series.

  • @TronZEROPi

    It's obvious you didn't play Peace Walker or watch the video I posted. Everyone followed Big Boss because they believed in him as a soldier. The government opposed his ideals and twisted his actions into evil rhetoric.

    Yes, I have played MGS (I assume you mean 1). Big Boss's story wasn't featured in that game, so what's your point?

  • @xRapidDavex Big Boss' story was featured in MGS1 in great detail, so much that we know what MGS4 said about his character was pure BS. In both versions of the game there's a recap of the first two games where it makes it clear that not only was BB full of himself and that he was nothing like MGS4 made him out to be. **** son, if Big Boss was really the way you think that he is then why did he go out of his way to hurt Snake twice? At the end of the first game the fight Big Boss...

  • @xRapidDavex ...surved no point because he had already lost and if he was really looking out for others then he wouldn't have done that. Everything in MG2 was about Big Boss trying to hurt Snake physically and emotionally and at the end of the game what does BB do? Gives this mocking speech talking down about the people you think he cares about and then tries to kill an unarmed Snake with a machine gun. Also, the government wasn't the only one the consider Big Boss evil, so did Kojima.

  • @xRapidDavex Big Boss is Snake im metal gear snake eater right? dod he become evil om mgs4?

  • @FallOffAClift finally....someone agrees with me. everybody is always dissing raiden. i personally thought he was cool in MGS2. but Snake is a bit better.

  • @FallOffAClift i always hated Raiden he is so gay!

  • yeah the cutscenes are great but the 10 minute codec calls get pretty annoying though. I still listen so i dont miss anything though

  • Yea, the first time i played i listened to eevvveerrryyyythiinngg becuz i know the codec helps sometimes..But i actually wished that the codec was like it was in mgs1,2,3.....than the way they had it in 4.

  • 0:15 SPOILER (people who didn't play the game yet.

  • When I was little I'd always make sure my dad was around to see this commercial, so it's easier to talk him into buying it for me. Yup, I was pretty much an MGS fiend when I was very little, lol I don't know why they even bother putting up the M rated logos, I got this shit when I was like 9.

  • got it when i was 6 :P

  • Then you are still little! I`m 25 and this is one of the best games i`ve ever played!

  • Snake from MGS2 is the best Snake:

    Snake MGS1= MGS2

    Snake MGS3= Big Boss(sentimental)

    Snake MGS4= Old and isn't agressive

  • I remember seeing this commercial and drooling everytime.

  • Best line of the commercial:

    "Raiden, get out of here!"

  • Thats what I said when I found out you dont play as Snake for the rest of the game.

  • Me too. Raiden in MGS2 should appear just in some cutscene.

  • I mean seriously, Wouldn't have loved to see Solid Snake vs. Solidus Snake?? Anyone?

  • well, you can play Snake vs. Solidus on MGS2 Substance. yes, Raiden sucks, but match with story. i would give 4.7/5 for game.

  • yeah like, you see raiden been forcibly raped by a chyper in a dock on the big shell or something and then you hear sanke saying " ehhrg... otacon what the fuck??!!."

  • Raiden rock in MGS4 :P

  • not for me. D:<

  • when I was like 12 or something, id always watch for this on tv and let my dad know that i wanted it badly

  • You're going down, Snake! WITH THIS TANKER!!!

  • I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!!

  • omg final boss spoiler in a commercial :Z

  • yep. I remember this commercial.

    "I've been waiting for this !"

    my favorite line ^_^

  • dude it was couple days i ago i dont give a shit who is right or wrong..

  • I agree with alster72. MGS2 is the greatest game ever on the PS2. I remember seeing this commercial and just being amped to buy the game.

  • nah i think mgs3 is the best

  • DAMN, how could I forget 3. Now I'm stumped.

  • when i first saw this commercial i was pumped cuz i thought it was gonna be the greatest game of all time

    then i bought it and it blew

  • MGS is the best and the American versions of the games are the only way to play it

  • What's the difference except for voices?

  • MGS2 the best video game in PS2!

  • What's the difference except for voices?

  • Exactly English shows emotion and personality inh our language while as japanese has just angry sounded men and 5 year old women

  • MGS4 is only confusing if y ou never played ANY MGS games before. LAWLS!

    So play the series before commenting. Cuz MGS4 DOES tie everything together soo simply, that it makes the other games look overly complex.

  • Not hating on the Jap's

    but damn, finally an English one :0

  • i remeber this commercial when i first saw it on June 1rst my bday and then a few hours later i opened my presents and i got my ps2 with mgs2 OMG greatest day of my life!

  • I love this commercial

    "I've been waiting for this" Favorite line :D

  • not for me

  • me neither

  • cleared up everything.

  • i mean the la li lu le lo im only ten k

  • your Fucking Ten, and you're playing an M-Rated game? what are your parents smoking? the world is so fucked up.

  • now 11 and i think your balls have dropped too far and that the beers going to your head

  • Amazing.You're 10 years old,you wait a MONTH for your birthday to come..and you say you're older.You still stated you're 10,and that doesn't fix anything.

  • i can't wait for the movie to come out...I wonder what the storyline will be about...

  • gretest hype i ever heard

  • the best game for ps2 intell mgs3 came out

  • I still remember when this commercial first aired back in 01', :p

  • thsi commercial brings back memories always watching and saying i wana buy this game

  • yup some critics did thought te story was confusing and playing as raidin wasnt as good! but no critic said it was a bad game!! yet again there was nothing confusing in te story for me!! i guess some critics cant seem to think hard enough!! nyway all game reviews on mgs 2 was atealst 9!! and it is considered to be one of te best game on ps2 along with mgs subsistence!!

  • like the way they show the last boss..lol

  • The Critics Agree!

  • I get a PS3 only for MGS4.

  • JUST for MGS4?

    Missing out on a lot of games, then, mate. :)

  • he means he'll buy other games but hes getting the ps3 ONLY for that game.

  • I remember seeing the 1st commercial, when at the end Otocon Yells out to snake... I was like"fuck this I'm getting a PS2 just for this game" and I did, now I'm gonna get a PS3 just for MGS4

  • YES!! I'm glad someone else remembers that commercial!!! That is exactly what I said! I saw that tv spot and I was SOLD. went out and bought a PS2 three days later! *Ah, good times!*

  • yup yup anint no arguing that.

  • im 11 when i was 10 in june my dad got the mgs4 bundle just for me on the first day it was realeased.

  • Why the hell an 11-year old be playing M-rated(+17) games?

  • Because their awesome?!

  • Have you even played METAL GEAR 1, 2 SOLID SNAKE or METAL GEAR SOLID?

  • ive been playing this series ever since i was like 6, will always be my fav. beat em all except 4 cause im to poor to buy a ps3. you lucky little kid. :p

  • get a job..unless your under 17 then i feel for you

  • im 16. i have a job.

    and to your other comment, the politics in this game are fictional. id say it is based more off genetics. it is based off both though.

  • forgot what i wrote. but i think i was trying to say that people who are under the age of the game besides 14,15,16...dont know what their doing. all they want to do is skip the talk scene and go for the action

  • dude im not against under-age gaming but..how would you "understand the game?" the game is built up with polotics and assuming of your age you might think polotics is boring.. also 1,2,3??? you dont even know whats going?..

  • Hmm,

    for one thing, as a 14 year old kid when i first played MGS I was fully aware of all the underlying themes. Try not to make generalisations, especially untrue ones, it makes you look like an idiot.

    In addition to that, polotics?. c'mon man, if you're trying to say that some people are too young to understand try your best to spell it right.

    oh. and. THIS GAME RULES!!!!!!.

  • sorry dude i read your comment wrong..my bad for ruining your day.
