Top 100 video game music: Metal Gear Solid Intro and Encounter # 12

[KaizerSozak2008]

Epic, so epic! The music in this game was stunning! And the story was just fantastic! MGS is such a great great series!

[snake07128]

hey body do you know where can i find the song that plays on the twins snakes when fox fights rex?

[Blakers54]

! "oh crap"

[Rkmajora]

This game kinda scares me when I play it :D but the music is awesome. I've beaten a couple times but I like when my friend plays it.

[RichardWiggler05]

Ocelot, Solidus Snake and Big Boss disliked this video.

[llSniperWolfll]

My god... Best game ever made. Perfect Storyline, perfect action gaming, perfect music. FUCKING SOLID SNAKE!

[Zappafan1980]

@llSniperWolfll

I am sorry i think Metal Gear Solid 3 has a better Storyline, better Boss Fights, better music ( well ok not better music )

And the graphics man Metal Gear Solid 3 had some of the Best graphics for the PS 2 only Resident Evil 4

and Final Fantasy X had better graphics

[llSniperWolfll]

@Zappafan1980 Metal Gear Solid is from 1998 you can't compare the graphics..

[Zappafan1980]

@llSniperWolfll

O. K. then i compare Metal Gear Solid 1 The Twin Snakes from 2004 for the Nintendo Gamecube

and Metal Gear Solid 3 from 2004

AND its still better in my oppnion Plus MGS 3 is a MUUCH longer game

Its not like i hate Metal Gear Solid 1 i just think Metal Gear Solid 3 is 3 x better

MGS 3 had some the best boss fights i ever played in my Life

[llSniperWolfll]

@Zappafan1980 Okay if you say so, but mine's just an opinion. Everyone has one.

[macro312]

@Zappafan1980

Dude that is like comparing the first computer to Watson (IBM Supercomputer). The context of technology between the two is too great to make a rational discussion but MGS as a series is a great story.

[Zappafan1980]

@macro312

In a Later comment i compared Metal Gear Solid the Twin Snakes for the Nintendo Gamcube and Metal Gear Solid 3

To bring the graphics on the same Level, And i still like Metal Gear Solid 3 A LOT more

Its a bigger longer game, it has a much better story, and the Bossfights are some of the most memorable in video game history

I even love MGS 3 more then 4 even though 4 has better graphics

[macro312]

@Zappafan1980

"Longer Story" Hello, They were restricted to 2 Disc??? + Serious? MGS3 yes it had a great story but it was not that epic. BUT MGS2 was terrible.

[dren9]

@macro312 I liked the aim of the story though, it shows a different side of snake. Big boss is a walking travesty, really gave us insight as to the backstory which in my book is epic enough. Hello, its the rise of big fucking boss =|

[macro312]

@dren9

IF they did a HD remake of MGS:I I'd probably choose that one.

In my book:

MGS

MGS3

MGS4

Hello Kitty Island Adventures

MGS2...lawl

[dren9]

@macro312 why another remake of a game that's ALREADY BEEN REMADE?

I'd choose metal gear 1 and 2 to be remade. Those deserve it, and they where in Snake's youngin days.

[macro312]

@dren9

but the remake was shit. tw were terrible

[masterplusmargarita]

@BRAINROTAGE And it's still THE SHIT nowadays. (Still my fave Stealth game)

[jdemonp]

ohh i want to play MGS TW >.<!!!!

[Shikomaru136]

:/ Twin Snake's encounter doesn't have that "Holy Shit! Gotta get outta here!" kinda feel.

[ChibiwolfXD]

It's hard to believe Kojima was a game making reject at one point.

[MegaSnake05]

Metal Gear Solid 1-2-3-4 Best game ever created, an exceptional masterpiece. A story beyond imagination. Really fantastic ^ _ ^

[TheBeefOmega]

I remember writing these songs. I got bored and scribbled some notes down. All of sudden it's a big deal

[Marklar2k8]

6:51 ftw

[1hitgamer]

why isnt any song of the guity series or blazblue in here

THEREFORE I CONDONE THIS MONTAGE INCOMPLETE!

[Drayger90]

Encounter rlz

[DarkDrasis]

It's a shame that I only have the Twin Snakes version of the first MGS - I don't get to enjoy the epicness that is the original Encounter theme.

[thebadbois]

! whos that! xD shit run!!!!!

[ratenixx]

Careful, I'm no rookie!!

Your hands are shaking, is this the first time you are gonna kill someone?

(Sorrmy my english)

[bogeaqYT]

MGS1 has better in game music than the others.

[kornoporno]

99/12 grenades? fail....

[rmsprowler]

seriously the fact that no halo music is in here discredits this whole thing

[xZaMuZx]

MGS has the best boss music of all time

[courperationX]

Nice choice of songs.

[ShadLinks]

just epic ..

[rainbowman95]

dame i heated the last boss but so far a rlly kick ass game i feel like playing it right now

[terrybroadway]

this is by far my favorite series of games ever.

[piromaniac9999]

that brings back memories.

The entrance between the air vents and the music in the first area you enter on the first floor.

SNAKE can you hear me? SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!

The music is perfect too,it matches the tension.

[runescapegeeklol]

@piromaniac9999 ya and the ending music when gray fox is about to die, it was historical

[piromaniac9999]

@runescapegeeklol

I played this game so many times i can't even bear to play it anymore LOL

I had all the items and beat it on the hardest dificulty.

[Westgamer250]

Wicked game...

[megajezior]

omg, there is a tear in my eye, it's since J played metal gear

[vfgjhj]

Most legendary game ever.

[RaikenXion]

Great music from a great game, why the hell hasnt this series spawned a movie yet?? Hitman, Res Evil, and Doom all got movies, and havnt even been around as long. Hideo and Hollywood need to start talkin.

[Rhoadhead]

lol all three of those games got shitty movies made out of them. RE1 doesn't make up for the suckage that is RE2 & 3. Plus, those three games didn't have hard stories to tell. Each of the MGS games are like 3 summer blockbusters in one.

[RaikenXion]

That said, Why hasnt there been a movie yet of this great game then??

[Rhoadhead]

lol because the script has to be like perfect for Kojima to accept. I mean each of the MGS games are fairly long and the cutscenes run a tad bit longer than most movie style dramatic scenes. Still, i vote make a movie. A crappy movie is still a movie. I mean with that said where is Ghostbusters 3? and why are there so many police academies and american pies that i lost count of? lol

[RaikenXion]

Ghostbusters and all the others you mentioned have always been movies first. MGS is a game thats been around for quite a while, longer than Tomb Raider, amassed quite a following, has a very deep story, especially for a game. This needs to be a movie, Hideo has no excuses now. Plus a movie will add to the game franchises appeal anyway, look a Res Evil.

[Rhoadhead]

i was saying theres no excuse why gb3 shouldnt come out either since so many washed up franchises have numerous sequals

[RaikenXion]

I was refering to game adaptations into films

[Rhoadhead]

i know wht u sayin bro lol just noting another film that I wanted to come out and how so many franchises get new sequels, why can't new ones come about like MGS or Castlevania as well as old ones like GB

[RaikenXion]

Just guess we have to wait and see. In terms of classic movies getting sequels, GB should have had a third movie in the 90s, and they know it. How can they just stop at 2 films? No successful movie stops at just Two films. When they come to make a 3rd, Im all for shall we say, "new recruits," as long as the old legends are still in it. To give the film some weight, otherwise it would just feel like a pointless sequel.

[Rhoadhead]

Yep, the Extreme Ghostbusters played on that new recruits idea and got cancelled after one season(of course they ran 40 eps. lol). They def made a mistake by not going on with the GB franchise. Yea, the second one got mixed reviews but most of the negative remarks were due to the sucess of the first one. However, there are times when it's for the better. Look at Godfather. G1=masterpiece. G2=regarded as the best sequel ever. G3=well, you get the idea. This one wasn't too great.

[RaikenXion]

Yeah most sequels never match their predecessors, but I dont know what the fuss was bout GB2, It was more or less the same as the first one. And yeah, 3rd sequels are always the weakest. But I consider GF3 to be quite good, kind of wrapping up the saga. Its Inevitable Ghostbusters will make a comeback, remakes or follow on movies seem to be quite frequent at the mo, especially films/Tv shows from the 70s and 80s

[MeleecCc]

If you'd have read the books you'd know that there is a pretty deep and cool story behind RE. But youre right, each MGS game are like WTFOMGTHISISAWSOMEGIMMEMOREOMG­ILOVEITOMFGMGSFOREPICNESS! O_O'

[OneTrueBelmont]

@RaikenXion: From what I understand, even though David Hayter HIMSELF wrote a screenplay for Metal Gear Solid, Hideo said that the budget suggested wouldn't be enough. And besides, how the hell could a movie be any better than playing through the epic story itself?

[RaikenXion]

@OneTrueBelmont Untill I see them take the Metal Gear franchise in a whole new direction that no one would expect, all I can see left for this classic is a movie, if done right and not made purely to appeal to kids. Something with the cleverness of lost or 24, but with the pace of the Bourne films. But I guess that would never happen, I can still dream though.

[t4ctic4l]

I remember first getting the game when I was in 5th grade, playing it all weekend and coming back to school with blistered thumbs from the beating the torture scene lol.

[SteJmatty]

love MGS music

[ledawg1138]

YOU'RE GOIN' DOWN SNAKE! DOWN WITH THIS TANKER!- Liquid Ocelot

[DezuReborn]

Encounter is the best in the series, IMO.

[George91280]

Tanker theme... Great THEME!!!!

[bart78170]

watch?v=FxTitk3xbgU

try this ;)

[MetalGearSolidFan5]

I don't know which music is better what do u guys think?

[DELMQR1]

the game was epic it self

[m82sniper99]

Escape was just epic.

[theulair]

Most epic final boss battle/ending i've seen in video games before.

[Centrus67]

SHIT! I feel my heart pounding again...

[Barricade]

I kept my PS2 (my PS1 died...) just so I could play this series and Castlevania SOTN. Hell, even better, MGS was actually the first console game I ever owned.

[DELMQR1]

you can buy a ps3 now there releasing all the old games now

[thecircleisperfect]

warhead storage is so haunting, another hair on end song from MGS XD deffo my favorite track

the mgs series doesnt go any further than this one in my head, blehhh you cant just sequel this game! :(

[chinangel]

I don't think that there is a single MGS fan who doesn't go 'oh crap' when they hear Encounter!

[boredom141]

Its the loud ! noise that always gets me. I jump a mile whenever i hear it!

[chinangel]

that music had me conditioned to seek out cover whenever I heard it.

[U1timahunt3r]

lol its not the music that makes me think oh crap...its just the sudden 'BWAH!'

[ScrewFearMe]

@chinangel yeah or the intro ... i mean the music from these old games are art... nnothing else to be said

[wonderwallmusic]

"Warhead Storage" is amazing. The chorus haunts me with nostalgia.

[dannyrennie]

MGS1 for the PS1 in my opinion the best game ever made and the best series there ever will be

[XESHADOWX]

A lot of Series I wish would never die. This being one of them.

[Infrashock]

I Love the "Escape" track ! Just Love It !!!

[craigybaby007uk]

the intro makes u wanna play as snake again live the memories and save the world again!

[guitarknower]

I think that red alert Music from tanker episode of MGS2: SOL could be here

[XxHaxxorxX]

Escape by far the best one here in MY opinion. has little bits of Encounter also. TTS fucked up by not putting either of them on there, which was the bread and butter of the music in mgs1. theres no tension in getting caught and no tension in the escape part either.

[gatotsu911]

I'm not sure I'd agree with that... I think the shift in tension was more onto the gameplay, relying less on the music. Don't tell me that running from the super-smart guards in TTS wasn't intense. The guards in MGS1 are retarded by comparison.

[XESHADOWX]

Full on Agree with you. Especially when you came to the Stairway climb to fight Liquid. On MGS the original it was Bread and butter to just continously throw Stun Grenades. On TTS.. that shit got annoying because they gave the stun grenade actual range.. and the bastards would always be shooting your or kicking you.. I was reluctant to finish that area in one shot on Extreme mode.

[walterahumada]

thats it soo much memories... one of my favorites and one of the best strategy games ever.. and its worth to let sometimes the enemy to see you just to hear the music :P

[SpadeHand]

Oh, man. You have no idea how many memories this sends down my spine.

[team322]

@SpadeHand ahah me too. fantastic game, i've left a piece of my heart in this game

[sobedude4]

loved this!

[Top100GameMusic]

It is modern

[Top100GameMusic]

I know I loved brawl and I tried to put some of them!

[sladikk]

Well, DeoxysPrime has found a way to upload them...Maybe you could PM him. He could probably tell you a thing or two.

-sladik

[Top100GameMusic]

No i mean i tried to find some tunes from brawl to put, i found a few that were really deserving

[sladikk]

Well, I know a few...Wrecking crew power-up, His World, and Final Destination deserve to be in here IMO. Oh and don't forget Ai no Uta, which I heard sold more than Pikmin itself(which is saying something).

-sladik

[KingdomHeartz93]

HIS WORLD did deserve a spot

also power hungry fool

but thats it -__-

[sladikk]

Well, at least Final Destination would work. True, not too many of the remixes came out as well as one could have hoped, like LGM.

-sladik

[gatotsu911]

Methinks you need to expand your game music repertoire beyond Super Smash Bros. Brawl...

[deathmetalguy2]

this was the first game that i really really played and completed. what a way to start a gaming hobby, after that everything seemed so shallow and boring(with the exception of FF7 and other prime FF entries)

[joeicatrivante]

Nice choice! Encounter is one of my favorites!

[DirectorToby]

Epicnesss

[Elvino5]

ZOMG LEET AT 4:20 KEKEKE

[superdragon4ever]

I hope super metroids lower norfair is in the top 10. Cant wait to see.

[Lean069]

More #11

[RPGFreak90]

Wow. Epic. I'll never forget the first time I played this game and heard these songs.

[Beuli2]

I still don't know why they took out escape in TS.I t was the best theme in MGS1, in MY opinion.

[clintisiceman]

Twin Snakes fucked a lot of things up. It is not the true Metal Gear Solid experience. And yes, Escape is superb.
