Carpenter's a HUGE gamer, especially ever since he more or less retired from directing. Basically all he does now is smoke weed, play games and write music.
Not everyone has the brains to close up shop and go take a swim in their jillions of moolah when they hit the high note like John Carpenter or Shigesato Itoi. Spongebob and Fast and Furious spring to mind. XD
+Robert E.O. Moewagon Not too surprising. Metal Gear has always been inspired by various movies. The first game had Kyle Reese from The Terminator as the box art.
I know a lot of people praise Yoji Shinkawa's art style but man, Nobody deserves more credit for their cover art like Takani Yoshiyuki who did the box art for MG2 here. I love the action shot. I want more games with cover art like this.
Snake was inspired by a lot of action movie heroes including Rambo, Snake Plissken and James Bond. He was modeled after Mel Gibson for this game. Campbell is without a doubt modeled after Richard Creena.
Which is fitting because, the Metal Gear franchise is basically a depiction of the possible hardships men of action will endure when humanity ventures into the world of militarized mecha. The first real battles of men vs machines. I'm surprised no one talks about this more.

@@nitothequito Let's look at some of the other remixes. Megaman 2 theme remix is a solid example of a hit remix. It uses the similar 8 bit lead synth as the original but is complimented with the guitar, drums and other instruments and they hit the mark. I've heard remixes on the megaman 2 and some hit and some don't. Back to solid snake, It's not terrible so I was a bit harsh on saying that. However, it doesn't hit the same way as the original on some marks like the lead synth and the last transition in the original. The remix itself is well constructed and has its own unique set of instruments and in some ways sounds cool. However that being said, those choice of instrumentals miss that nostalgic feeling that original gives. The original had a slightly different tone to it that just makes you feel engaged into the song even if the choice of instruments are simpler. Each to the own though. Some might like this remix over the original and some may just prefer the original. So different cup of tea for everyone. Here is another example of the solid snake of another decent remix. In some parts like the beginning is good, middle better and the ending they did a solid (no pun intended) job at the choice of instrument. It hits, it's not overly spaced but you feel the soul in that. However, again I prefer the original. ruclips.net/video/yA8ybQF57ng/видео.htmlsi=YR-BcF3LEjd3anb4
Love this theme. Noticed the ending part, sounds similar to the SFX theme used in Halloween 1978 when Myers appeared after Laurie placed the key at the Myers’ house.
Metal Gear 1 and 2 should have come out for the Turbografx-16/Pc Engine. The system could've very much handled a faithful port. The music in both Metal Gear games sound like something you'd hear on the console too.
Yes but TurboGrafx-16 was a flop once the NES came out. The MSX2 was better than either, but the NES was the only system which was widely used and anywhere close to the MSX2.
@@MaskMan191 Konami made Rondo Of Blood on the PC Engine's CD Add On years after this game came out. But naaahhh, they wouldn't have ported MG to the PC Engine
Rondo of Blood was a new game developed for multiple systems. Metal Gear 2 was a game made for only one system and wouldn't take off as a series until 1998 on the PlayStation.
I can't stop playing and choosing this song on Shadow Moses Island when I play Super Smash Bros Brawl because that tune is so catchy and enjoyable to listen. =D
I'd say Colonel Campbell was probably modelled on Trautman from Rambo based on the original artwork for the game and Campbell's relationship with Snake is a lot similar to that of Trautman and Rambo (they way he always gets him out of retirement!).
@@youngkappakhan MGS VR Missions did updated versions of some of these songs to great effect but maybe you're not counting that. I also enjoyed some of the Metal Gear Ac!d 2 soundtrack... They incorporated a lot of acid bass lines which I thought was a little on the nose, but it sounded excellent.
@@mooganify I should clarify even further that I mean music during gameplay and not insert/theme songs. I can only remember like 1-3 tracks from each Solid game and a lot of those games' compositions are nearly identical but pretty much the whole MG2 soundtrack stuck with me. They're all good though
Snatcher's great. Have you played Policenauts yet? The unofficial translation is out and the translation is amazing and very true to the original. And the game for me is Hideo's best. It's plot, setting and characters are just awesome.
It would've been really cool if they used this theme mp3 remixed in international releases of MGS1, and then standard MGS2, and even MGS4 after the ending to make it hopeful, or a remix or something. Man! They better use it if MG1 or MG2 get remade.
Kojima please do a Fox Engine remake of Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2 Solid Snake with Kiefer Sutherland as Big Boss and bring David Hayter back for a young Solid Snake make the games for PS4 Xbox One PC it would be great I have a gut feeling MGS 5 will lead up too sweet remakes of MG and MG 2
Right? I just bought the Phantom Pain last week and am currently watching a bunch of videos to get up to date with the story. It's such an epic saga and I absolutely am a sucker for the music.
It has been verified that there are 7 composers for this album. Tsuyoshi Sekito (関戸剛) Masahiro Ikariko (碇子正広) Mutsuhiko Izumi (泉陸奥彦) Yuko Kurahashi (倉橋裕子) Tomoya Tomita (冨田朋也) Kazuhiko Uehara (上原和彦) Yuji Takenouchi (竹ノ内裕治)
Can some one explain to me why we got Peace walker, Rising and Phantom Pain instead of a full blown remake of this? That goes double for Metal Gear 1 (MSX) too. The setting is there, we have a cast of characters just flesh it out more, come on powers that be.
@@PerpetualAlfa Whether or not if that's true. There must be more awareness and demand for a remake of the MSX2 originals instead of nonsense demand for yet another remake of MGS (aka Metal Gear 3). The newer members of the metal gear community need some briefing. :)
@@maxsteelflex Yeah there's definitely more demand to remake the original 2 than MGS1 from fans. I do think though from a gameplay perspective MGS1 actually is more in need or a remake though. It's gameplay hasn't aged anywhere near as well as MG2's imo.
@@PerpetualAlfa Mgs1 needs a gameplay update over mg2? Think you might wanna replay them again *scratching my head*. Mgs (ps1) gameplay aged well, for it even matured the fundamentals of the msx titles. Mg2 solid snake needs that treatment. But if you say so, I'm curious as to how?
@@maxsteelflex I think gameplay perspective MGS1 suffers from the camera being panned in too close that you can really see what's going on around you. This wouldn't have been so bad but the transition to first person view is really sluggish that you end up looking at the soliton radar for the most part. With MG2 you can see everything on screen, so you're focus is on the environment and enemies themselves. Another issue with MGS1 is the backtracking. Now this is present in MG2 but it's no where near as tedious, partly because of the variety of environments and amount of newly unlocked areas to explore. MGS1's backtracking is not fun and feels like a chore, whenever replaying it,, But it was done to make more use of those early areas where there's more stealth gameplay to enjoy. Which brings to the next point. MGS1 about half way through becomes a gauntlet of set pieces and boss battles. There's very few areas of traditional stealth from that point on. That's not necessarily a criticism if that's what someone prefers, but MG2 had most those set pieces too (Hind D battle, being ambushed in an elevator by 4 guards, a fist fight with Gray Fox, being chased by guards up a spiral staircase, warming/cooling a key, etc) but they were spaced out with normal stealth gameplay.
MSX was the Playstation of the 1980s. Metal Gear 2 predicted the future in 1990-1991, and also Hideo Kojima predicted world before and after 09/11/01 when Metal Gear Solid 2 was released in 2002. Excellent Music even for the 8-bit NES system in 1987 & Snakes Revenge by Konami in 1990. Childhood memories. Despite the graphics exponential development I feel games may lack Gameplay like the 80s and 90s games. I stopped video games in 2002 after I beat Metal Gear 2 Sons Of Liberty (2001) -JAPAN
some Inspiration comes from the ''Rambo'' Films. Solid Snake and Colonel Roy Campbell are just like Rambo and Colonel Trautman. Sorry for my english if i make mistakes.
Have you ever noticed that First Blood Part 2 and MGS1 are extremely similar. Special forces guy goes into enemy territory save to people, leaders betray him, gets captured, electric-tourtre-thingy operated by a Russian guy, breaks free, gets mad at leaders, escapes with machine gun killing badies.
I swear this song reminds me of the Escape from New York theme, isn't quite the same, but if you pay attention there is the same beat 80's disco to it.
@thechosen2010 do you know where you can get it? I'm also looking for a english version of snatcher I have no idea where I can download these games >=S
It’s a shame this version didn’t return in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (though I do love its remix) since I find this very fitting in Shadow Moses Island from Brawl.
Actually, you're both wrong; the basis for Snake's design originally came from Michael Biehn's role as Kyle Reese from "the Terminator". the basis for Metal Gear's gameplay came from various movies, as well as Kojima's desire to change the way games are played so that there would be a better variety. That said, Rambo and Snake Plissken both inspired the designs of Snake we have today, as well as a dash of Clint Eastwood! :D
Also fun fact John Carpenter played MGS2 when it first came out and praised it greatly saying "Snake has returned to New York."
Carpenter's a HUGE gamer, especially ever since he more or less retired from directing. Basically all he does now is smoke weed, play games and write music.

+DJCandyManMike But there was Snatcher before it with a pretty awesome plot. Even though it was very derivative.
Mondo Zappa Those of us that didn't play Snatcher no longer would have doubts after this game. Provided we played it before MGS.
DJCandyManMike I know what Snatcher DID show for sure. Kojima's love for perverted stuff.

This is the song that plays in my head whenever I look at digital schematics of my cybernetic limp enhancements.
When I found this song in MGS4, I made it a habit to play it during boss fights so I could get pumped up to win.
was baked asf and bumpin this track @3am when suddenly i checked the clock and realized this was uploaded exactly 14 years ago today. 🤯
don’t care what anyone says, after playing this on master collection.
Kojima had metal gear figured out all the way back then
Most of the staple points the series became renowned for were pioneered in MG2.
A lot of elements of it were reused in MGS1.
I like to this kojima had a board of these ideas and timelines all lined up
Bro i just started playing iy and its crazy how similar it is to the rest of the series. And ppl said Mgs 2 was a rehash of 1 lol
I will walk into my final exam tomorrow with this in my head!

+Downriverkid I'd much prefer Richard Doyle as Big Boss like it was in MGS4, not soft voiced Keifer Sutherland.
+Downriverkid ew
Sorry, it's not happening
Wouldn't it make more sense to have Big Boss be played by Richard Doyle since it is old Big Boss?
but Keifer played as Venom Snake or "Big Boss II" fits perfectly with what Venom was suppose to be
