I am thinking on buying MGS-The Twin Snakes.
Anyone that has it , can they tell me how good is it?
Was it good like the other MGS? What's new?

Thnx in advanced~

from what i understand it's basically the old MGS game for playstation, but with new movies and the graphic is like MGS2, which does so you can do the same thing like in MGS2.. for example first person shooting etc...

it's a very worthy remake. they did an exemplary job keeping all of the original MGS level designs intact while making it look a helluva lot more prettier with the revamped textures.

check out gamespot's editor's review for more insight. it should convince you from the screens alone.

my only gripe with it is how they removed the ethnic accents from mei ling and naomi.

don't expect it to have anything new tho aside from what is already offered in-game.

oh ok, cool!
thnx

actually, it wouldn't make sense for Mei Ling to have an accent since she was born and raised in America.

And the game is truly awesome. The movies are very well done (sometimes a little over the top, but rarely, and they're so much more dramatic in certain parts). I love this game.

If you're a huge fan of the original though, then definately check this out cause it's a great way to relive the experience with purrrdy graphics, surround sound and redone cutscenes.

that's true. i guess i just enjoyed her accent in the original. after hearing the accent in the past, it seems awkward in twin snakes without it. an insignificant gripe to say the least.

in any case, it's a title worth purchasing. it's about time GC had another game that's "mature"

how are the controls in the game? im thinking of buying too, but i hear it is just a rehash of the original, which is just way too short...

Currently lovin...
1) Nickelson - Yin (Solid Globe Remix)
2) Outback - State of Emergency (Original mix)
3) Lovefist - Hanging on a String (E-Craig Mix)

The controls work pretty well. It may take you a bit to get used to, but it's nothing mind-numbing.

And I wouldn't say it's a rehash. The completely redone cinematics alone are worth a purchase in my opinion.

Basically, if you're a fan of Metal Gear, then you should really enjoy this remake

just wondering if this game has the same cheats as the first one

i remember climbing in/out and back in, through the ventilation shafts to see Meryl 'exercise' .... hehe
