I wish Mantis was real, just so he could get into the heads of all SOPA members and prevent them from passing their ridiculous Bill, and thus preventing us from accessing this incredible piece of music.
I would go as far as to say MGS1 is a better game than 90% of the crap that gets released nowadays, its gameplay still holds up, and the story remains relevant.. a true masterpiece
when i first played against mantis i actually thought he was controlling my controller and that he changed my tv channel. this was my second favourite boss, behind Grey Fox.
Me: WHAT? why does he dodge them? HIDEO Me: WTF? *Beats meryl accidently to death* Me: GODDAMN IT! Me: lets try this again.... Colonal: Try plugging the Controller in Port 2. *Hurries to plug in Controller before HIDEO ends* *plugs in controller wrong* *controller starts shooting randomly and kills meryl* Me: fuck...HOW DID I FORGET TO PAUSE?
My bro was not all too happy a girl figured out how to beat Mantis before he did and was not all to happy to see me actually do it. His eyes were the size of coins. Good time and a great game.
@asianrique Uff it is sooo long ago... But i guess that i not had the bandana, it was the first run (not the realy first one ;) but i know that i dont use any kind of stuff you can unlock, like the Bandana). But i guess to remember. When he attacks you (maybe while the flying chairs around him (or what ever flys around him), i get up from the ground and hit him with one single punch. It took nearly nothing from his health. But when i recognized it, it becomes my ambition to beat him this way :D
@asianrique But as you said, i dont know how much time i needed, maybe it was really an hour or more - i only know that it was f***ing long and hard :D If anyone love this game it is a must to do!
@ps3tutor the only other way I knew you could beat him was use the FAMAS and shoot in a circle (press square while holding X to run in a circle) That got the job done for me at least.
Mantis is one of the view villains I actually feel sympathy for. He was treatly like a freak for having telekinetic abilities and only wanted acceptance and postive reinforcement. At least he died happy ...
Hey everybody! I have released my new album 'Progenitor' which has electronic music inspired by great games such as the Metal Gear series. You can check it out and download it for free on my youtube channel if you're interested!
I read in a GameInformer and on some random game website that this boss has the most creative use for a video game controller use in any video game ever... not joking :P thats awesome :D
It'd be hella creepy and awesome if Psycho Mantis actually knows your full name, your dark secrets, where you live, who you are and what you're thinking through his incredible psychic powers.
Mantis has said the most true quote ever to my knowledge of quotes along with terminator 2's
'It's In Your Nature To Destroy Yourselves'
Mantises was 'From the moment we're thrown into this world, we're fated to bring each other nothing but pain and misery. ' Painfully true, this game hit me hard :/ Solid Snake was and is the soldier i've always wanted to grow up and become..
You can tell when you play them that older games put more thought into the soundtrack. Especially MGS, Resident Evil, and Silent Hill. They made up for what they couldn't accomplish visually.
omg these comments are the best...but then again what do you expect from the greatest game series ever, who here didn't get a chill in MGS4 when Mantis showed up at the end. I damm near wanted to cry.
Never said I was. It's just that when I'm trying to find a word that starts with sp, and find the so column, turn a page and it immediately skips to the sq column, that pisses me off.
@iscrewy Yup my parents used to tell me if I wanted to become smarter and build my vocabulary I should stop playing video games and read the dictionary, but what they didn't know was you could build on your vocabulary by playing video games that have an in-depth story and dialog, such as Metal Gear Solid
Ye.... This game is aswell my childhood... well... the 1st one i know and i still think this is the most epic game ever made. FTW MGS and after all those years of new games and shit... this one still beats the record
@grimconan Yeah I remember we just got a new TV in our house and I got this game when it came out and when i get to Mantis and the black out happen I shit myself thinking i broke the TV :/ and also Eternal Darkness on the gamecube did stuff like MGS where the volume would turn down and I actually thought it was the TV and turned it back up and it near deafened me :D
Come on, Mr. Fox Hound. The commander is waiting.

Me:"Yes"
Mantis:"where did you put your saved data? and where is your controller port?"
Me:"I have a Wireless remote controller and my saved data is stored to my hard drive."
Mantis:"I hate you!"
