So far I love it, the inclusion of the M9, empty magazines and dirty books makes for a much more tactical experience. Also this looks stunning and battle animations are much more fluid than the original. Also with a larger array of offensive moves shootouts with Snake are really fun and less "I go boom he falls to hte floor" so everyone who starts biatching about it not being as visually arty please STFU.

1 bad thing though - The original alert music's been taken out.

I got the bandanna and stealth suit. Yum.

As far as I can see, it's the best of MGS (minus some stuff that hardcore fans cry about) with the extra pizzazz of MGS2, minus the crap of MGS2.

Hurrah!

Just been on Gamefaqs, glad to see the stealth suit can still be unlocked on this GC version.

I had a credit note for GS so I just got Twin Snakes today. Haven't done too much yet, just got to the bit where you get the SOCOM. I almost bought Sons of Libery and MGS3 as well, but I'll try playing through this first.

1 good thing : You can change the difficulty after you complete it and carry on again.

Bad things : Everything else.

They took alot of the original music out. Very bad thing. They changed the cut scenes alot. More impressive perhaps, but not directed by Hideo therefore = poo.
There's also a first person view in which you can shoot, meaning it's far far FAR easier to get around security cameras.

I'll stop rambling now, or I won't stop.

Ah but can you now move properly when aiming?

I'm guessing that still puts it back in the darkages.

what are you talking about the original was beautiful and this merely desecrates its memory.
