I know nothing about it, but i'd like others opinions on it.

 

I'm a fan of most games but i tried to get into the gears of war series after watching my bro play it and found the games really difficult, and hard to get into the story. Oh and no i'm not saying gears of war and metal gear are the same series because of the word gear i'm just saying that as an example of something i didn't really like

 

If you like Stealth and deep,cinetamic heavy stories,then you'll love it.

 

But be aware that some cutscenes in MGS games can be very very long

Definitely. One of the best stories out there and it's not a hard series at all so you won't get stuck. The cutscenes don't actually get long until MGS4 (and the endings of MGS2 and MGS3 but they're endings so what can you expect. )

 

I wasn't sure MGS was my thing but I tried it and now I love it. Probably my top 3 VG series now. So give it a try!

They're fun games if you like stealth-action stuff. The only thing is that the Solid games have a lot of dialogue-heavy, long cutscenes that can get a bit talky and boring, but besides that they're really fun. Especially MGS1 and MGS3.

 

I can't say anything about the 2D ones because I haven't played many of them, but the Gameboy Color entry is freaking amazing as well.

What everyone above me said. If you're into stealth-action games then MGS is the game for you.

Metal Gear is my 2nd favorite game series ever, I like stealth and the game's story and I really recommend it. Just go and buy MGS Legacy Edition (all canonical MG games from the original MSX2 games to MGS4 expect Portable Ops) and you won't be disappointed! I can't wait for MGS5!

Alright, thank you for all your help

It is an awesome stealth game, (though in MGS4 you dont even need to be stealthy) and it has one of the best storylines ever created.
