This game was fucking amazing. When I was like 12 years old, I installed CFWs in all my friend's PSPs. We all downloaded the same games and then met at somebody's place to have a Metal Gear PO/PO+ or Monster Hunter session until it was dinner time. I think I never had this fun ever again. I miss those times like you wouldn't believe.
I've played PO but not PO+ and I'd love to see you play it! The story is not canon but I still enjoy it and it's the first game in the series with soldier management similar to PW after this and in V:TPP
Had found memories using the chat lobby in Plus. Until the occasional hacker comes into your lobby and shut your PSP off. That was an annoying nuisance back then, which I had more times then many, as I mainly hosted.
I downloaded on PPSSPP to play on my phone. I did some codes to get characters and got a Female Scienstist with S2 CQC lol. Also i love that this game allows you to play as a Tengu with the sword it's so cool
I'm trying to yet into this game myself. My main issue is the Controls. I understand the psp had limited options but they are still so strange to get your head around. Even back when it came out I really struggled due to the controls. It's a shame really.
Yeah I also remember the controls not being too great back then as well. Luckily with PPSSPP you can remap everything to suit your style 😁 putting d-pad on the right analog stick changes everything already ❤️
@@StormBreakerPirate Great, thanks for the info. I'm a bit of a novice when it comes to MG games, you probably know the like that started with Phantom Pain/Rising Revengence than wanted to check out the older games, well that's me! I caught wind of your other MGS Randomizer videos as I'm also an advent fan of randomizer runs (I'm a Resident Evil nut, classics to new they all pretty much have a randomizer or are getting one like RE4 Remake has a closed testing one from BioRAND, who made the Classic 3 games Randomizers). This might be a bit long winded but do you have any recommendations of how one would go about playing some of the original games? I know the Master Collection exists for Steam 1-3, but I also know 1 is on GOG and I think 2 might have been on GOG at one point but they took it down, and likely either actual or PS3 emu for 4? Plus whatever side games exist like PO/PO+ and their emulations
I really gotta know, does plus have a different control scheme, or is the game a pain to play? The controls are not intuitive and I’m curious how you seem to play it very smoothly.
The biggest pain is the camera controls which are on the d-pad but you can rebind them quite easily in the PPSSPP emulator. All I did was rebind the d-pad to the right stick on my controller and it becomes a much smoother experience. I am also using a 60 fps patch which makes the game even smoother 😁👍 I also do this on PSVita with control rebinding and it works great! Sadly no 60fps patch on Vita though 😅
Portable Ops was a complete game changer for me when it came out. It was like MGS3 on my PSP, which for a 15 year old blew my mind.
I agree! It was a technical marvel back then and great on the go. Thank you for watching! 😁

I’m glad I could help give you that hit of nostalgia 😁 all the MGS games on PSP were great fun in LAN / Online
i feel like this mode should be a standalone multiplayer game
This would make a great multiplayer mode for sure 😁
Bro just casually gets a MK22 ;-;
Right? WTH!?

Glad you enjoyed the video! 😁
I have been thinking of bringing this to the livestreams so stay tuned!

I never had that experience back in the luckily. That would have put me off it 😅
Also, you can just take knocked out enemies next to a box and call the young crumpet. Silly pirate.
😅

Its certainly a hidden gem of a game
I hope Portable Ops and Plus get added for the second part of the Master Collection.
Hopefully they do!
Please please play more old snake in msgpo he is so cool
Look forward to more MGSPO+ in the future with Old Snake 🫡

GO KIWI! 🥝
🤣 knew you’d love that
This looks neat! I assume it's through emulation like PPSSPP?
I do recommend! And Yes it is through PPSSPP with resolution upscaling and 60fps cheat 😁

I think it would make for a fun Wednesday variety option.
