It's too bad you couldn't smoke a cig to detect those laser beams. I remember the first time I figured that out in MGS. That was such a neat touch and it kinda blew my mind. This game looks like it would be fun. I played the first Metal Gear on NES but never the MSX one. I heard that it's a lot better.

In my previous blog I wrote about playing Metal Gear, the MSX port to the PS2. My first Boss Battle was with The Shotmaker. Now I am at my second Boss Battle in the game and it is with
The Machinegun Kid!

Is this really the end of the line for Snake? Of course not but the Machinegun Kid is no Shotmaker.
Anyway. I am having so much fun with this game. And it is so awesome to see how so many things that happen in the playstation game Metal Gear Solid started here in this game. Here is another example I found tonight.
Infared Goggles.
In one area I kept setting off the alarm but no one saw me and I didnt see any cameras? Yet the alarms kept going off and alerting the guards.
Who Set Off The Alarm?
So I back tracked and found the infared goggles and went back to that area and when I equipped the goggles?
Laser Beams!
Very clever. But not clever enough to out fox Snake!
I'm three hours into the game and I believe I still have a long way to go. One thing that is slowing me down is Health Rations. I run low and then I have to try and back track to find them.
And also something that I did not know that I learned the hard way and so did James aka jgusw to save your data (game save) You Must Be In an Elevator! You can save at any point in the game but dont be fooled....when you load it up again you will be in an elevator way before you saved. Just a heads up.
So, I've beaten two of the Bosses and I cant wait to fight some more. How is snake gonna get out of this mess?
Stay tuned for more updates.
