There really is not too much that has not already been said about this series...when it comes to espionage/action, I don't know that there is a better game out there! The first Metal Gear Solid was an experience like no other...the kind that commands at least a second go-through!
Amazing Three pack

This collection is exactly what any Metal Gear fan is looking for and it is even better for the soon to be fan! If you have not played any of the Metal Gear Solid games or only one or two of them, get this collection! The original game in all it's glory will provide an experience in itself as surely even if you owned this game before it is most likely scratched or in poor condition. The Limited Edition copies of both of the second and third games will give you access to all the alternative missions including VR missions. The new box art gives a reason to add this to any collection, and all of this for less than the price that you would spend on buying one of these at used game store! Get this collection!

first and foremost, if you have never played the mgs series, this is probably the best way to do so in preparation for the upcoming mgs4. chronologically, you would play mgs 3, mgs 1, mgs 2, and finally mgs 4 when it comes out.
secondly, this series is probably one of the best stealth action/espionage games out there. the first two games pre-date syphon filter (yes its THAT old). written/directed by the critically acclaimed hideo kojima, the mgs series is filled with deep characters, plot twists, and amazing gameplay.
i suppose the only gripe i have is with mgs3. the reason being that they did not bother including the collector's edition version that included a bonus disc with a movie player and some bonus gameplay. i read that it was because it came with, at the time of the original release, an online multiplayer mode on the second disc as well that eventually was shut down.
all in all, a great buy, with a great price!
A definite need for an MGS fan

If you are a Metal Gear Solid fan, then this is for you. It has the original ps1 verison of Mgs! That's hard to come by. It comes with subsistence and substance of MGS 2 and 3. My only complaint, it doesn't come with the extra discs that were suppose to be with Substance and Subsistence.
Great deal for a great set of games

The prices for three games (each separately fetch a used price of well over $20) combined is excellent. All three are excellent games, and Metal Gear Solid 1 is alone worth the cost. My only criticisms are that they didn't use the Twin Snakes release instead of vanilla MGS1 and that MGS3: Subsistence is missing its two bonus discs. The graphics on MGS1 have not aged well. Remember, MGS1 requires a PS1 memory card.
Esencial
