It is awesome!
yes trunks that was a pain, well i learnt it metal gear solid how to run with the gun, you use it to beat ocelot.
i think it makes it easy in mgs2 because of the ps2 controller touch sentive buttons which does make it alot more easy.

p.s. truncks i have read in your other posts that u havent played mgs, but that was a long time ago, but if u still havent, defintaly get it and play it, best game ever made!

you gotta give respect to metal gear sold, otherwise there would off never been mgs2.

Don't I know it. I've only played the demo and I am looking to getting this game. I know where I can find it but I'm saving up for a GBA game. I don't have any yet so this will be my first and only GBA game for a while.

The only MGS game I've played is MGS2. SO I wouldn't know, but I know a MGS was made for GBC.

Ah my area of expertise, the plot of all the Metal Gear games

But yeah I have MGS on GBC, it's a good game I think, follows the MGS style well.

Released in 2000 for the Gameboy Color, and originally named Metal Gear: Ghost Babel (name of the Japanese release), the name was changed for European and American releases for marketing purposes and the recognition the name had gotten due to the Playstation version.

The story is set seven years after Outer Heaven in 2002, and Snake is brought in after a US Army cargo plane carrying nuclear weapons and a new Metal Gear is hijacked and held by terrorists in the Central African nation of Gindra, led by the GLF, the Gindran Liberation Front. They and their leader, General Augustine Eguabon (the developers really do have fun making up these names....) demand independence for Gindra and withdrawal of United Nations peacekeepers or they will use Metal Gear (which was developed by the US government after the retrieval of plans from Outer Heaven) to fire a nuclear weapon. A Delta Force team is set in and wiped out, prompting Snake to be asked in after Campbell reveals that the land the Gindra fortress, Galuade, is on is the same place as where Outer Heaven was situated seven years before, leaving Snake to head to Outer Heaven again to stop Metal Gear. Here, he works with Sergenant Chris Jenner, the only survivor from the Delta Force squad sent in and James Harks, the young designer of the Metal Gear housed in Gindra to take on the terrorist group Black Chamber who were working with the GLF and eventually head down to the 100th basement floor again to face Metal Gear, Black Arts Viper (the leader of Black Chamber) and the General.

The story has large similarities with the Playstation version as well as Metal Gear, but is also a very good standalone story, despite not being part of the official Metal Gear history (although not so apart from it as Snake's Revenge is). The graphical limitations of the Gameboy Color let the game go back to it's MSX and NES roots of graphic style, but still manage to work well, still keeping certain elements of the Playstation version, such as being able to back against a wall and the same basic weapons as well just with different names (SOCOM = 5-7, FAMAS = R5). It evens includes a VR Training section that is much the same as the one on the Playstation in content, as well as a 2 player feature using the link cable. No other Metal Gear games have a multiplayer feature.

I think it's pretty cheap, but then I bought mine as soon as it came out, despite now actually having a Gameboy Color at the time and it only played on GBC's (and now GBA's), so it was sitting in it's case for a while before I actually got the thing to play it on. Also I heard somewhere that it's been discontinued, so not sure if you'll be able to find it.

You could always download an Emulater and the MGS ROM if thats the case, I've been looking out for the game for a while too (When it came out I thought it would be the same story as Metal Gear Solid on the Playstation so I left it)

You can get it easily on an Emulator and ROM and play it on your PC, it's worth it if you can't find it on GBC.

Try here: https://www.metalgearnews.freeservers.com/custom4.html

You'll need the Metal Gear Ghost Babel (Zip File) and aparently a NES emulator, which makes no sense as it's not a NES game, but whatever. I'll try to find a better link.
