A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Last night I finally finished MGS The Twin Snakes, and soon about to be starting MGS2. Was pretty fun even if I had no idea what I was doing most of the time.
The Twin Snakes is excellent. I've not played 2/3 or 4 so kinda makes me what to go play them.
MGS3 is the best one in the series. They really nailed the MGS formula with that one.
I'm honestly not a big fan of Twin Snakes (I think the mechanics ported over from MGS2 broke a lot of the original design of MGS1, and I don't prefer the cutscenes over the original), but if you think it's excellent you absolutely should play 2 and 3 at least. MGS3 is a masterpiece.
Have you played any of the series before? MGS2 and 3 are some of the best games ever made, IMO :) Twin Snakes is ok, but I much prefer the original.
Make sure to play the original version of MGS1 eventually. It's different enough (and arguably superior) to Twin Snakes to be worth a play.
I've tried it multiple times. I don't like it, it looks worse and controls are clunky
