METAL GEAR SOLID - Original Japanese Intro and codec

The greatest PSX game of 1998, and perhaps the greatest ever, in its original form with japanese voice overs and text (don't forget the eventual release of MGS Integral would include the voice overs from the US version).

Even series creator Hideo Kojima said he liked the english voices better, but it's entertaining to take a look at these origins and how different the characters sound in them.

I'm including the prologue and credits, as well as an excerpt from the first codec conversation between Snake and Campbell.

I've been playing video games all my life, and this is definitely my favorite series of all time.

Fox-uh-hound! I played the demo disc from PSM (if I recall) that had Japanese voice-overs but English text. It's the one that ended when you exited the heliport. I think later on, Pizza Hut had a demo of the game that ended later on, maybe at the Ocelot battle. Nice nostalgia.

Akio Ohtsuka may be a veteran in the seiyuu world but David Hayter IS Solid Snake.

MGS 1 was the best of the series, Kojima F'ed up royally when he killed off Liquid Snake, the greatest villain in the series. Raiden's pretty queer, I know after MGS4 I'll probably never touch another non-snake based MGS game again. Kudos on finding or filming this video, its funny hearing what to us sounds like jibberish and a couple English words here and there lol.

Crazy!, the original voices. I remember when MGS was nearly released and I thought it was just another pile of hyped shit. Guess what, I got my hands on the demo..I think it came wit Pro Evolution soccer. As soon as the Intro started my feelings changed and I really immersed into this game. I played the demo dozens of times till I finally got my hands on the US Import. Since then I played this game like 20 times, always with codec and videos. Thanks for uploading
