Awsome collection Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5
Great collection. The only thing is; even though they have MGS2 substance and MGS3 subsistance, they don't have the bonus disks for either game. But that aside, great games that are well worth the money.

3 Games, for the price of one? Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5
Yup! The first 3 Metal Gear Solid games in one package for $30 - and you can buy these 3 separately for 20 each! Not to mention the MGS2 here is SUBSTANCE which is a very rare find for the PS2 - I've tried looking for it on eBay and people would still spend around $40 to buy it used...well I got Substance in a 3-pack for $30 TOTAL! You'll also get MGS1 still the PS version with 2 discs (unchanged from the original game), and MGS3 "Subsistence" without disc 2 (the only downside) but it's still worth it all even if you're just missing one of these games. I was just missing MGS3, and wanted MGS2 Substance, and I'm happy with my purchase!

Great way to find out storyline Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5Average rating of 5/5
I've been reading all of the reviews posted here, and there seems to be a lot of complaints regarding not having the original Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2 disc. I understand that all of you die hard gamers out there were seeking this as part of the bundle; however, I would like to know if you are such hard core fans then why don't you have a copy of the originals already? I purchased this set as a means to understand what's going on in MGS4, since I already had the PS3 Metal Gear Bundle.

I believe that for those like me who want to understand the storyline a little better and get caught up this is a great bargain. Sure there are always going to be complaints, but for the price you really can't beat this. I was going to have to buy and find all of these games separately anyways, since I had never played the series until MGS4... so I was very happy that they boxed them in a set and priced it at $29.99 (not to mention free shipping on Amazon).

If you guys have spent a lot of time playing Metal Gear Solid 4, then going retro back into the 80's is probably going to seem a bit primative anyways. Reminds me of the old NES Contra days lol. I think that the first Metal Gear Solid included is as retro as I'm willing to get in this series because of the drastic changes in cinematics and graphics. Overall, I recommend this set.

This is the best collection series you can buy for the price of one, because these games are hard to find anywhere else. The collection features: MGS 1, MGS 2 Sons of Liberty, MGS 3 Snake Eater, in which MGS 1 & 2 have Substance part of the game.

Now with MGS 4, having this is a must have, if you haven't played them before you can get all 3 games at a cheap price, just like DMC series. Even if you just want to have them for your collection.
