    I'm playing the first game and loving it. I just defeated Revolver Ocelot and the whole thing with the back of the CD case was genius.

    Wait, blue name and you hadn't played an MGS game yet?  I've played through the first 3 and never even owned a Sony console!  They're amazing and I hope I can play MGS4 at some point.

    Raiden is a cyborg. The mechs are biomechs. Meaning they have flesh parts.

    The legs allowed for long jumps and very increased mobility. Not to mention to ability to used the feet as a weapon along with guns and the cable.

    Dude, I just created a wikipage for the MGS4 Database the other day.  You are not the only one obsessed with the minutia of the series.

    Get a notepad out for the second game on. I'm not even kidding actually, writing down who 'dies' and major plot points on a piece of notebook paper (several pieces of notebook paper)  will help you from ravaging your own brain later when the conspiracy's and plot twists start flying out of everyone's ass.

    Don't worry about MGS2 - it's a -crazy- game... play it but don't pay too much attention... especially at the end. It's interesting stuff, but doesn't play much into the arc of MGS.

    I will now tell you that MGS4 retcons everything awesome about all its predecessors.
     
    Also, it answers all the questions and explains everything supernatural. The answer to both, always, is "Well... er, nanomachines!".

    I constantly cite MGS3 as my favorite game of all time, and most of my friends are like 'why?'. I think a lot of it has to do with the way that I played the MGS series, and my love of the little things in the series that stand out. MGS3 completely changed how I viewed a lot of things about games.

    MGS1 is really fucking good but the rest of the series is just a bunch of masturbatory, indulgent cutscenes with some decent but aged gameplay in between.

    mgs3 is probably tied with mgs2 for second most plausible in the series (behind mgs1 of course), so i give it credit for that, but i still don't think it's a very good game. too many cutscenes, not enough in-game exposition.
