MGS4 was alright.

MGS: Ground Zeroes is the best MGS game, followed closely by MGS3: Subsistence, and closely behind that is MGS2: Substance and MGS: Phantom Pain.

The Twin Snakes is better than MGS1: Integral.

MGR: Revengeance is the best Metal Gear game.

Metal Gear Solid 1 is very overrated. Hasn't aged as well as people say.

The game is basically a remake of the superior Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake.

It has better written dialogue than any of the sequels, though I hear that's down to the translator of the first (Solid) game.

Also that's not saying much.

You know if you have a save file with other Konami games, it reads them and in a boss fight it “reads your mind” and talks about which games you like 😬

Yeah but there was a lot less of them to be bored by. Red/Blue are like fifteen hour games even playing super casually in a kid-friendly way, the new ones are sprawling and take dozens of hours and have a bunch of lovely cutscenes and like a thousand monsters.

Kojima is not a good writer on the whole but he hit a home run with MGS3

That said he tends to design good gameplay systems so even when the story is dumb and bad the game is still fun to play (see: MGSV). So hopefully Death Stranding will be fun to play around with even though the cutscenes and story are definitely going to be self-serious pseudo-psychology nonsense.

Kojina is wonderful at making system mechanics and level design. He just tripped up with the level design part in the last two MGS entries.

Red Dead Revolver is another really bad game with a whole lot of charm. I was disappointed when Read Dead Redemption was not nearly as silly, although it has its fair share of bizarre things. But the main problem with Read Dead Redemption is that the shooting sucks.

Don't forget the "date" mission with Paz. And the fact that Miller was constantly making GBS threads on the US's involvement in WW2 and not a single comment about what Japan was doing during WW2.

So few games talk about Japan's involvement in the second world war. It's really holding the medium back.

Are you telling me that a Japanese game for the Japanese market would in any way attempt to diminish, nay, even whitewash Japan's enthusiastic participation in war crimes??

There used to be a badass communist propaganda game. It was basically the sims but you had to hand out flyers and give speeches and steal the audience from and undermine other political movements. Real cold war era vibe. I forget what it was called but it kicked rear end.
