Metal Gear Solid and Grand Theft Auto are two completely different games. If you had the choice of getting the games for free, which one would you pick? The MGS series or the GTA series? I'm just asking this because to me, both of them are totally amazing games. Which one according to you is better?

I'd take Metal gear for free and buy Gta. Not really a hard choice. Buy one get one free!

easily metal gear solid...i can go back to those games and play them to death over and over again. i don't find myself doing that very often with grand theft auto, at most it's only two or three playthroughs and that's it.

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater was my favourite game last gen so MGS4 is by far the game I'm most looking foward to. I usually only play GTA games as a distraction before I play my next epic single-player game, I play them for a few hours, get bored and don't touch them again for months.

They are just about the only games I could play over and over and over again x100000, so I would say its a tie.

I'm, frankly, surprised at the outcome so far (MGS winning by a significant margin). Nonetheless, both are phenomenal series, and better for folks to think that MGS is better than a lesser series.

The MGS series is the best game series of all time. Regardless of its popularity. Yup, I said it.

Not sure yet. GTA is good. But I still question was it really better than SA??? Time will tell on that one. Kinda like when FF12 came out. Everyone said it was the best one. because it did some new stuff. But now???

From what I see of MGS. It may be the funner game. In completely different ways thow. But who knows. Still have a few weeks till we know for sure.

mgs no question... GTA is fun and all for the first 4 or 5 hours, then its the same thing over and over, so you only end up playing an hour or so every few days... just my opinion

Eh, it's all a matter of what you like better. Free roaming? GTA. Great storyline? MGS. Overall... MGS, no doubt.

I'm not picky. If either game was being offered to me for free upon or before it's release, I'd take it without question.

After release? Well, I would say GTA because I would've already pre-ordered Metal Gear Solid:P

Are kidding me? MGS wins indefinitely there's no competition what so ever. Sure GTA is funnier and allows you to have more choices but the depth and complexity of MGS absolutely blows GTA right out of the water.

GTA games are great... but not enough to be in comparison with a masterpiece, such as the Metal Gear solid series.

I own every MGS, even Substance and Subsistence. I love them all and I will buy every new one that Hideo Kojima makes. But your question, which one would you rather get for free, I only own one GTA so GTA.

metal gear solid 4 is the best game of this generation so far, and the best game bin the world so far. GTA IV was fun and all but i got sick of t so fast. yeah blowing up stuff.... it gets old. but metal gear solid 4 has the greatest single player in gaming history, and also has an excellent online.

MGS, no question about it. I couldn't even force myself to finish the GTA: San Andreas or GTA4, whereas I've played through each MGS game many, many times.

Metal Gear Solid is way better than GTAIV. There not even in the same league. GTAIV was a major dissapointment. San Andreas was a lot more fun with a lot more to do. The only MGS I ever played was MGS4 and although I didn't understand the storyline 100% I can say it is a lot better than GTAIV.

Metal Gear Solid and Grand Theft Auto are two completely different games. hiren_nfsmw
And this is exactly why I wouldn't compare them or choose one over the other...they offer completely different objectives and gameplay. :|
