I have it on my wish list waiting for a sale. Opinions?For all you Shenmue III herb collectors, check this:

Gamecube was imo the last beautiful console. The miniDVDs ...Outside of playing the MGS 2 tanker demo (which I put up there with Shenmue in terms of blowing my mind what visual quality video games could achieve), my first fledged experience was playing the inferior port of 2 on the Xbox.
I was a huge Nintendo fan at the time and Gameucube was my system of choice so I couldn’t be happier to play Twin Snakes and experience story of first game. Yes those additions, especially after 2 were welcome but the maps, levels and boss battles weren’t adjusted to compensate for the new abilities.
I was still a teenager at the time and thought Kitamura’s directed cut scenes were the greatest thing. While they are nicely choreographed for most scenes involving Grey Fox, the constant flipping, jumping and over use of bullet time were even grating at the time and have not aged well. In comparison I feel MGS 2-3 cinematics still hold up very well.
Twin Snakes is a Gamecube exclusive. I was a big MGS fan and didn't get the chance to play it. Also, from what I've seen the direction of that game takes a weird quirky twist with over the top cut scenes and humour.i completed mgs twin snakes only once on the gamecube and that was back in 2004. the game engine (ps2?) looks great.
my only 1 complaint was that the first person view made the game way to easy... other than that, the game seemed fine. kinda sucks twin snakes is locked on gamecube, i would happily rebuy it.
..regarding all the hype around the mgs1 remake, maybe it's just me but i don't understand why we need it. the twin snakes game is good enough.
Subscribing. Even back then that plot ehrm twist sound too much Julius & Vincent, from movie Twins (1988). But take in account that Liquid had all recesive genes and not just a few and that seems to be bad = prone to illness (there's controversy though). However that genetic/cloning motivation is simply too much late 90sfind a new motivation for Liquid Snake hating Solid because being mad over getting "recessive genes" makes no sense when recessive genes are not inherently bad.

I just realized they wouldn’t be able to use the iconic MGS themed would they? I believe because of the lawsuit that’s why it was omitted in MGS 4 when returning to Shadow Mosses and I assume without a hearty royalty check same would apply now.
