I was wondering if anyway could tell me the chronology of all the Metal Gear Soid games? Thank yuo in advance? I don't mean when they were released but the timeline in the games.
1964 - Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater
1970 - Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops
1974 - Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker
1975-1984? - Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain
1995 - Metal Gear
1999 - Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake
2005 - Metal Gear Solid (The Twin Snakes)
2007-2009 - Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty
2014 - Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
2018 - Metal Gear Rising: Revengence
All other Metal Gear games are non-canon.
Isn't MGS3 1964? Thought the idea that each of the games in the Big Boss game took place exactly 10 years apart. '64, '74, '84.
Yeah, stupid typo. >_>Isn't MGS3 1964? Thought the idea that each of the games in the Big Boss game took place exactly 10 years apart. '64, '74, '84.

Sure thing. The hardest part when recommending the order for others to play them is that there are spoilers, one way or another. For example, if you start with MGS3 since it's chronologically first, [spoiler] The fact that the Snake you are playing as not only loses his eye along the way but gets the title of Big Boss serve as surprising/meaningful plot points, while for those who played the other games first, you were simply wondering when those things would happen. [/spoiler] Similarly, if you play MGS4 before Peace Walker, [spoiler] You'll know that Big Boss and Zero are at odds, because you find out in MGS4 that their falling out is what led to the conflicts of all of the other Metal Gear and Metal Gear Solid games that came before. In Peace Walker, you can guess that something happened between PW and Portable Ops, but the animosity isn't so great on Zero's end that he won't offer Big Boss the chance to rejoin him in his efforts. [/spoiler] What I tell people is to play them in the order they came out the first time around, but on replays, play them in order.Thank you. I have played most of them but haven't played a couple. So thanks for helping me out.
