TTS is only better for the graphics, but not much better. The voice acting sucks! Mei Ling and Natassia do not have accents anymore and Naomi sounds like a black woman. Snake can trip and fall flat on his face while running up/down the stairs, but in the cut scenes he has better moves than the ninja. Some character designs suck like Meryl, and the codec scenes are all rehashed, sometime the lips and voice are not timed right making it look like a Godzilla movie.

MGS the iriginal had great voice acting and a nostalgic feel to hit that cant be replaced, but TTS is still a great game to play, when I got a gamecube it was the first game I got. If you played MGS2, the gameplay is similiar and so are the graphics.

Actually the controls are not analog/pressure sensitive which makes putting your gun away a pain. Plus the graphics are not exactly on par with MGS2.

quote Otacon MGS

Actually to sum it all up, MGS:TS is is the MGS1 story line with MGS2 gameplay.


However the acting in MGS:TS seems to have hit an all time low, even in the MGS universe.

Well the controls are nothing like the PS2 controls. Just try to lower your weapon once you pointed. It is a pain to lower your weapon among other things.

Just ordered this from amazon. Haven´t played the original since... Damn, 2001... Anyways, the lip-sync doesn´t match the mouths´ movement in any english MGS, since the facial animations are done for the original japanese voice acting.

Yeah but TTS lip syne look horrbile compared to the original codec scenes.
