The choice to have flashback voiceovers, and "The Best Is Yet To Come" start playing was a masterstroke. Also having the blizzard blind you until you approach the heliport, find your bearings and realize where you are was honestly the best moment of any video game, I simply cannot argue this, I was emotional as hell. The Metal Gear series and I have been through a lot.
This is one of the most emotional gaming experiences of my life. But what made this absolutely mindblowing was the fact that when I played it and the characters mentioned that it's been 10 years since Shadow Moses...I realised that it was 10 years in real time too. I played MGS1 when it came out and 10 years later I played MGS4 to return to this place. Only those gamers who played each game when it was released can fathom the emotional impact of that moment. MGS4 was a stroke of pure genius.
Returning to Shadow Moses is one of the greatest moments in the history of the Metal Gear Solid series. To us who played this game, is like reliving our best moments in high school.
What I love is how they've kept the MGS series relevant by always upgrading the gameplay and keeping it modern, but they always make it clear that they make these games for the fans that have been here since the beginning.
+tomismop it's one of the few game series that has not hit a peak and gone downhill. it's always fresh with each game (save mgs2 imo, which i didn't like very much).
+Michael Havas This and GTA has had some serious longevity. Even though the 2nd one was probably the worst, it was still a damn good game and I still occasionally go back and play Substance.
this will always remain as my biggest and most beautiful surprise in all of gaming...I literally shed a tear when 'The Best is yet to Come' started and all the flashbacks and old voiceovers. I'm very thankful for that demo disc I got as a kid that started my love affair with MGS.
This is like visiting your abandoned high school decades after you graduated. Even though it been so long and everything's deteriorated, you still remember everything clear as day.
One of my greatest ever gaming moments. I played MGS1 when i was just a kid back when it came out, I sucked ass at the game so I spent all my time at the beginning trying and failing to sneak around. Then in 2008 I was in college and I was playing this game, when you return to Shadow Moses, it was an incredible experience. I was filled with Nostalgia then, and now in 2020 i'm filled with double nostalgia for both 2008 and 1998. I love this series.
Patrick I played 3 years later with totally different machine and account , but weirdly music hasn’t played. I’m very disappointed now. I played all the way here just for this song.
I played the MGS games all in the same year, 2013, and even if this moment had an emotional impact on me, I knew it wasn't anywhere near what series veterans felt when this happened, the contrast between the ten-year difference those guys who played MGS back in '98 and the couple-of-months difference I was experiencing, were just incomparable. But playing through this again almost five years later, the impact it has on me just keeps growing and growing, both from a personal perspective and from Snake's. It's a weird thing for me to describe, but that's one of the things that proves to me that videogames, regardless of what Kojima himself says, are art.
It's insane to think that when I first played this, 9 years had passed between then and playing MGS1. As a 15 year old, I felt old. Now it's been another 9 years since I first experienced this! Time just speeds up the older you get.
I consider myself fairly tough and mostly emotionless, but I always choke up here when "The Best is Yet to Come" and the flashbacks start. It's like the condition of Snake and Shadow Moses mirror each other and the whole island is a metaphor for snake's impending death(because at this point, it seems clear that he only has two or three years left at best).
MisterCrowley27 also shows that we have moved on too. Since most of us were children when we first played mgs 1. I was a freshmen in highschool. Now I'm 32 with grey hairs. Lol. Time flew by.
this reminds me of my grandpa and what he must have felt like to get old. he was the most physically active man being a pilot and spearfisherman and I know he must have been heartbroken when his body started failing him
This is like watching an abandoned facility video, 20 years after you've seen it in person. Happy 20th, MGS. :') These aren't tears, I'm just cutting onions!
This was masterfully done. I wish more games would do this. Instead of remastering games I would prefer to have a new game with modern enhancements but that bring in nostalgia this way. I would love to see a future Zelda game have a section were you come upon a beautifully recreated part of Ocarina of time. I think that would actually be more effective than an OoT remake.
How lucky you are. I started with MGS2 and have never gotten to play the OG MGS1, but even I can understand the power behind returning to Shadow Moses. I can't relate, but I can absolutely see why it had an impact on those who played the critically acclaimed hit from 1998.
My brother's friend was crying while playing this segment, including myself. This gives gives back so much memories and the one that got me into the franchise.
I would've loved if *Batman: Arkham Knight* had done something like this. Like explore the island buildings, see the remnants of Ivy's rampage, old TYGER equipment abandoned after the Arkham City incident. Would've felt a little more weighty compared to what we got.
Awesome. Nostalgia. I remember playing Metal Gear Solid 1. On PS1. In the late 90's. In My Grandfather's house. In Wisconsin. During the winter. When temperatures outside were in negatives.
I love this segment, so much nostalgiagasm and I always thought that the Gekko patrols and the little ball robots were legitimately scary or unnerving at the least.
Even though we know exactly what this video is of, did anybody else feel slightly gutted when the MGS1 part ended after he entered the air duct? *BOOM* smacked right out of my nostalgia This was done extremely well, so much feels
I sometimes stand around.... I think last year I just stood there. No enemies as I took all of ghose out.... and just walking around. Even in Otacons computer room. We are looking at.... a story of history, showing its remains of mgs1. And we in 2023 are seeing it remains of 2008. The world was very different then. But the main thing is we are still all here. The same place. And we can cherish these by formulating something in a art form. I think I'm going to do that soon just to going of it.
First time i played MGS1 was on a pizza hut demo disc then eventually played the full game became a huge MG fan cause of it when i played this level i teared up...i was 9 when i got the demo disc and tried it im now 29...20 long years
A bit of a shame you can't go into B1 and see the commander's room, seeing Psycho Mantis' mask and the open doorway behind the bookcase would have been a nice.
Fun fact: In act 4, Shadow Moses was bigger and originally you were supposed to explore ALL areas of the island. This didn't happened because of the limitations of memory. There's 2 unused areas from 2007 version of the game, that was revealed on integral podcast talking some secrets about act 4. The first one is the frozen lake, it's located nearby of the beginning and the route was really different compared to the final product, so instead of you heading west to get in the heliport, originally you had to head north, pass through the lake and then you end up getting in the canyon. The lake has an Gecko patrolling there, you can shoot on the lake to break the ice and make him sink in the lake. This lake has been removed because it should remove the fans expectation from seeing the heliport again and another reason is for nostalgic feeling. The second one is a secret base bellow the nuclear warhead storage building, you had to use the elevator to get in this area, there's not much details about this secret base, in my theory this area should exactly the same map from Metal Gear Ac!d 2 link battle (online) map. This area has been removed just for nostalgic feeling. Back the 2007 version of the game, you could have access to B1 commander's room and you could get 1000 of DP upon get in there (THIS IS STILL IN THE FINAL PRODUCT) and there's a flashback of Psycho Mantis (ALSO STILL IN THE FINAL PRODUCT) he says "I saw you there... you have a large place in her heart. And getting bigger... but I do not know if your futures lie together." This flashback appears when you enter on the corridor, nearby where Snake fought with Psycho Mantis (it's only accessible by hacking and the B1 commander's room has been removed and doesn't have any textures of the area only the elevator collision is still there all that remains is these flashbacks for DP and there's a video on YT showing this). There's 2 unused codec calls conversations of Snake and Otacon talking about the ladies room and the bookcase placed at the same place where the entrance to the cave was (there's a video on YT showing their conversation).
"Just like old times" I remember when this game first came out, I had just graduated high school and I got the PS3 just for this masterpiece. I started my Metal Gear journey with the original MGS, I had no idea what the game was about, but after playing it through, I was hooked. Returning to Shadow Moses was such an emotional moment for me, a great culmination of music, scenery, and storytelling. Hooah!
Literally still the best moment in gaming history! The love of the game, and the flashback just brought something profound n deep, and I promise you'll never feel it like this ever again 😔 Long Live The Snake, and Shadow Moses Hideo we thank you #MGS4L✊
So lot of memories .. not only the game. The game also but I remember that time when I was with eight or nine cousins in my little room and we played that game 20 years before. And now we are also old ..thank god for a beautiful childhood .. metal gear one of the best games I played. A many memories..
@notchjohnson1 sorry but I spent most of my time playing this while I was on a dialysis machine and the fact that I'm a man with medical induced P.T.S.D doesn't help
Crikey the feels man I'm breaking up here.."best is yet to come"..thank you for ringing back the memories of 98 I remember tearing up when I played mgs4 and got here my brother looked at me weird..you dont understand is the reply he got.
What's so brilliant is the flashback sequence ends at the same point the original demo version of Metal Gear Solid did, if you were playing the demo as soon as you crawled through one of those vents the Thanks For Playing screen would kick in and that was it, and naturally first thing you did was beg mom to take you down to the local game store which in those days actually wasn't always a goddamn Gamestop (Monopolistic bastards) to buy the full thing.
Remembered the Venom Snake fight on MG1, Big boss battle on MG2:SS, Twin Snakes on gamecube Snake doing some Badass dodging kind from bullets, Tank Gunner Raven, being burned bcs Psycho Mantis. And now, our childhood character become older, n the player who play all the MG Franchise become older too. T_T (my Backbones was hurt if i sit too long)
damn. i was something like 15 when i first played MGS 1. ... im 36 now... this , to me- is the absolute best scene in ALL the MGS series... Solid Snake has ALWAYS been my favourite character. Scenes like this is why KOJIMA IS KING!! that music starting gives me absolute GOOSEBUMPS.
metal gear solid 1 along with resident evil 1-3 medevil tenchu twisted metal 1 and 2 jet moto racer are amongst my all time favorite games of all time the 1990's ps1 will always be my all time favorite era of gaming hands
So apparently its canon that snake dosen't take and use the chaff. That and apparently those item boxes are REALLY good against weather protection. 9-10 years in that harsh weather and they still work. amazing
Bro, how do you keep getting spotted at the beginning? When you get reduced to zero health with the rations equipped, is automatically uses the ration.
20:35 I think this conversation is between Snake and Gray Fox ( not cyborg yet ) in Zanzibar Land. See Metal Gear 2 : Solid Snake ( 1990 ) MSX when Snake is crossing Nariko desert Fox : Careful Snake, there are Claymore mines around there Snake : Who are you? Fox : One of your... fans
yep, that's because Kojima wanted mgs to feel like a sort of revised version of mg2. both games have lots of plot elements in common. for example in mg2 you'll have to rescue Holly, while in mgs you'll rescue Meryl, and both have a codec frequency of 140.15. or the fact that Grey Fox helps Snake on two different occasions by warning him about mines, and he does that claiming to be a "fan". (not really plot elements) but at one point in both games, you'll find yourself in an elevator surrounded by 4 enemy soldiers, or being chased by enemy soldiers while making your way to the top of a tower through a seemingly endless staircase, or fighting a hind d with a stinger, or the fact that you can learn an important frequency by looking at the back of the game cases etc..
@@filipeflower he just noticed a similarity between between mg2 and mgs/tts, and i explained to him what kojima tried to achieve and why there are so many similarities, that was the point
The flashback dialogue that is used is from The Twin Snakes, but I'd like to imagine it as Snake remembering the line delivery differently after the 9 years since he was in Shadow Moses.
People said the same thing about mgs1 with mgs2 graphics, then they made twin snakes and butchered the voice acting and over dramatized the cut scenes. I wish twin snakes would have been a carbon copy with the new engine and just remastered sounds, keeping the original voice acting and music score.
I did the exact same thing as the fist minute of this video when I played MGS as a kid. Only when I went into the vent the fuckin stormtrooper threw a GRENADE in after me. Funny, I still remember it all this time after watching this.
That moment when you realize that not only Snake has grow old, so do you.
So true, I think I was around 9 or 10 when I first played mgs1...Damn I miss those days. Mgs1 will always be my favorite game of all time.
Zeero Kool yo lloré
The feels
Abel Velásquez yo I'm fucking crying right now I was 8 when mgs1 came out I was 17 when I played mgs4 I'm nearly 27 :'(
Cody Montgomery reply ...
I'm crying it's true i was 8 now 27 years running so fast
For me this is the absolute greatest moment in gaming history. Returning to Shadow Moses, just wow.
just wow
many nostalgia
much gameplay

Actually, the Shadow Moses incident happened in 2005 and events in MGS4 - in 2014. So technically it's been 9 years. But you got point anyway.

brings back memories, Hideo sure knows how to surprise his fans
The goosebumps OG players (like myself) must've felt playing this for the first time - man, could send anyone into a frenzy.
Also I'm commenting on this video ten years after most and I don't care, that's how timeless this series is and always will be.
How lucky you are.

Play more games. This was cheap, I’ve seen so many games “revisit” old areas. Does not make for “iconic” moments. Sit down.
If only the original Metal Gear Solid Rising had been made, I'm sure Raiden would have visited the remains of the Big Shell
You do realize that Arsenal Gear crashed into Manhathan, right?

metal gear solid 1 along with resident evil 1-3 medevil tenchu twisted metal 1 and 2 jet moto racer are amongst my all time favorite games of all time the 1990's ps1 will always be my all time favorite era of gaming hands
I love that snakes back gave out when he jumped out the helicopter
I hate that moment when the music at Shadow Moses stops
And i love/d it when i come over there in MGS4......so much memories like Snake :D ♥
5:44 here’s where it begins, boys and girls. Let’s all go on a “feels trip”
That busted surveillance camera tho...
My feedback would be in what I do is I use the Duct and throw a chaff that way I can run to snow area without the alert
I'm so looking forward to playing this game again.
I'm afraid it's been... NINE YEARS
Yeah.... I know. I was in my room just like now.
This looks new too me. It's weird. People look back at this seeing old snake having memories of then, we are having memories of this.
This was awesomely uploaded on my birthday
MGS1 was one of my favourite games ever but I never had a PS4 so missed experiencing this nostalgia trip for myself! Feels bad! Hold me bros.
So apparently its canon that snake dosen't take and use the chaff. That and apparently those item boxes are REALLY good against weather protection. 9-10 years in that harsh weather and they still work. amazing
Everytime you got caught in the MGS1 part was too funny,hands down
The greatest gaming experience I huevera had was coming back to shadow moses
Best part starts at 5:43
oh man what a beauty going back to shadow moses will be, first i gotta beat 1 and 2 for the solid saga
***** i'll keep that in mind
If you move the camera over Snake's head & run around, he'll mention the overhead view from MGS1.
Poor show in the flashback section. What the hell were you doing?
I never had so much goosebumps till this day
Bro, how do you keep getting spotted at the beginning?
When you get reduced to zero health with the rations equipped, is automatically uses the ration.
5:43 Grab the tissues. It's time to start crying...
It hits even harder. We were living in a era of innovation and wonder, people everything. Loved it
20:35 I think this conversation is between Snake and Gray Fox ( not cyborg yet ) in Zanzibar Land. See Metal Gear 2 : Solid Snake ( 1990 ) MSX when Snake is crossing Nariko desert
Fox : Careful Snake, there are Claymore mines around there
Snake : Who are you?
Fox : One of your... fans
yep, that's because Kojima wanted mgs to feel like a sort of revised version of mg2. both games have lots of plot elements in common. for example in mg2 you'll have to rescue Holly, while in mgs you'll rescue Meryl, and both have a codec frequency of 140.15. or the fact that Grey Fox helps Snake on two different occasions by warning him about mines, and he does that claiming to be a "fan". (not really plot elements) but at one point in both games, you'll find yourself in an elevator surrounded by 4 enemy soldiers, or being chased by enemy soldiers while making your way to the top of a tower through a seemingly endless staircase, or fighting a hind d with a stinger, or the fact that you can learn an important frequency by looking at the back of the game cases etc..
@@3rosione Actually, those voice clips were taken from Metal Gear Solid The Twin Snakes.
@@filipeflower that's not the point of my explanation lol
@@3rosione So what was it?
@@filipeflower he just noticed a similarity between between mg2 and mgs/tts, and i explained to him what kojima tried to achieve and why there are so many similarities, that was the point
Pizza hut demo in 1998 brought me here
The flashback dialogue that is used is from The Twin Snakes, but I'd like to imagine it as Snake remembering the line delivery differently after the 9 years since he was in Shadow Moses.
Could you imagine MGS1 story with MGS4 graphics and gameplay that would be an epic game
People said the same thing about mgs1 with mgs2 graphics, then they made twin snakes and butchered the voice acting and over dramatized the cut scenes. I wish twin snakes would have been a carbon copy with the new engine and just remastered sounds, keeping the original voice acting and music score.
@@SparkerR1987 I have no complaints about The Twin Snakes (since I have both versions), except maybe for the lack of VR training.
I think after how everyone hated the twin snakes i think konami wont be doing anymore remake or remasters ever again
@kobra6660 well,big rumor mgs1 getting a remake
I did the exact same thing as the fist minute of this video when I played MGS as a kid. Only when I went into the vent the fuckin stormtrooper threw a GRENADE in after me. Funny, I still remember it all this time after watching this.
I wonder how Shadow Moses Island is doing now after Snake’s return
26:18 Those dents on the wall to the left where Fox picked up that guy and smashed him repeatedly are missing.
+LightSeekerDragon93 That only happened in The Twin Snakes version.
Thay hallway still creeps me out because of the gray fox voice you hear and seeing it empty didnt help any and the gecko jumps are made it worse
