Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes

Only one word can describe this game... PERFECT! Everything about this game is perfect. I've played the original and loved it. This is even better. The story is the same and the characters are the same as the original. The only differences are the graphics and cut scenes. The cut scenes are the best that i've seen in any game. There are some that are hilarious. Some contain the best fights I've seen... ever! The voice acting is the best i've heard. Even though the control system is different to the playstation version, it won't take long for you to get use to them. If you haven't got a Gamecube, get one now! If you have got a Gamecube, get this! This is the best Metal Gear Solid game ever. Congratulations to everyone who worked on this game. It's a masterpiece! Please make more MGS games for the Gamecube.

I feel Silicon Knights really did a great job with remaking MGS. With Konami's help, they took the story and characters from MGS and added updated gameplay taken from MGS: Sons of Liberty, a new and epic soundtrack and a great graphical presentation. Also, with the help of Ryuhei Kitamura (one of Japan's most gifted directors) they've created some of the most impressive real-time cinematics in a video game ever. The most impressive involving a certain Cyborg Ninja.

The graphics are more on par with MGS2 and in some places even better. Some textures look a lot better while some look rather plain. As for character models, they all look great except for one or two, but even then they are still very decent. The voice actors who did the original are all back (and even a new one) and of excellent quality like every other MGS game. Although they changed some of the characters accents and changed one characters original va they did just as great a job as in the original. Liquid Snake sounds even better this time around. Anyways, if you like Action/Stealth games then this is exactly what you want. The original MGS single handedly created the Stealth genre and after playing The Twin Snakes, it's easy to see why they remade such a great game. With one of the best and most intriguing stories and some of the most memorable characters in a video game ever, it's very easy to recommend this game.

9/10

Master Video Game Creator Shigeru Miyamoto one of the greates game makers teams up with friend and video game creator Hideo Kojima to bring the classic Metal Gear Solid to the Gamecube.. with next generation graphics. The game is being handled by Silicon Knights that have on their resume the award winning ETERNAL DARKNESS that created a brand new genre for video games.. the cinematics and direction are being handled by Ryuhei Kitamura japanese film maker.. known for VERSUS and AZUMI... this game will be as fun as the first one with the inovations of the second one... and the visual style taht only HIDEO KOJIMA could bring to a video game.. this is going to be a timeless classic that should not be passed...

MGS is certainly the best game of PSX. Then the genial Hideo Kojima(Creator of the first game) made a remake of the game to Gamecube. The Twin Snakes is a perfect game.It has fantastic graphics. It has dubbed voices and cool soundtracks. The gameplay is good with no mistakes.Twin Snakes has plus another gameplay than the classic.It has a First-Person view mode.But the gameplay of the First-Person View is very good. The Fun Factor is high in this game.The better part is the Dog-Tag collection(Gotta gettem' all!). The publisher of the game is Silicon Knights(a subsidiary of Nintendo), creator of Eternal Darkness.That's why the game has some insane parts like the battle with Psycho Mantis. MGS The Twin Snakes is the best Spy game in Gamecube. If you like spy games, don't miss it. 10/10.

Having played both the original Metal Gear Solid, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty - Substance and now Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes, I can safely say that this series is a high point in all the history of video gaming.

What makes The Twin Snakes so good?

Is it the over-the-top cut scenes, redirected by a genius in animation? Or maybe the new mechanics, added from the sequel? It could also be the enhanced AI, or even (and most noticeably) the improved graphics.

Well, it's all this and more.

The re-telling of the original Metal Gear Solid could have easily gone south. But when you think about the amazing company that was in charge of doing it and the experienced people involved in the project, you just know it's good - actually great.

Everything that has been changed from the original seems to have been improved for the sole purpose of showing MGS the way it was meant to be played and experienced and, in that respect, it works like nothing else. You'll quickly forget fighting the ninja and the bathroom scene of the original (for example); after you've seen them here. And the fact that enemies don't give up chasing you if you crawl inside a duct and actively try to flush you out by throwing grenades and spraying the whole area with gunfire makes the experience seem much more believable.

While it doesn't make you question everything and everyone the way Sons of Liberty did, its story is not nearly as hard to follow and proved ample room for excitement, adrenaline pumping and heart moving moments.

All in all, this is an indispensable item for anyone even remote interested in a fresh story with memorable characters and for all those Metal Gear fans that want to see Solid Snake as he was meant to be seen, from the beginning.
