This is a Big Boss Rank walkthrough of Metal Gear, originally released on the MSX, completed on PC. [1987, 2006 - KONAMI]
Since the game can't be beaten no damage, I routed the next best thing: no rations and no damage taken against all bosses. I've tried to balance challenge alongside cinematic immersion - no text is skipped, CODEC calls are played out even though the in-game timer continues through them.
I've included Chapters, though the commentary will make more sense as part of the full journey.
Chapters:
- Opening (00:00)
- Big Boss Rank Requirements (02:08)
- Game Start (02:50)
- The Search for Gray Fox (03:25)
- Shotmaker (11:07)
- Seeking Dr Madnar (11:38)
- Machinegun Kid (15:57)
- Infiltrating the Courtyard (16:18)
- HIND D (17:37)
- Infiltrating Building 2 (17:57)
- Tank (19:27)
- Bulldozer (21:20)
- Infiltrating Building 2 (21:38)
- Flametrooper (24:50)
- Locating Dr Madnar (25:22)
- Infiltrating Building 3 (35:22)
- Dirty Duck (40:08)
- Final Run (40:30)
- Metal Gear (44:01)
- Final Boss (44:50)
- Final Scene & Credits (46:12)
- Rank Screen & Closing Words (49:00)

Just managed to get the Big Boss rank myself (just over 41 mins!) all thanks to this walkthrough. Clear, concise commentary goes such a long way, and all the little bits of humour sprinkled through the video is greatly appreciated! No big deal...

@SoulSignal 9 месяцев назад

Fantastic completion time, well played! And thank you, really appreciate hearing that this walkthrough helped you get that Big Boss rank. Even with guidance, it's a tricky thing to obtain. GG! 🔥 🙏

There is barely any content around MG 1 and 2...Your videos are excellent. Good narration, good guide, good gameplay, short sweet and to the point. (Like one of my japanese animes). Hope your channel blows up so your hard work gets appreciated more. More metal gear content pls👊

@Big.Joe.Grizzly Thank you so much, man. Really appreciate that. MGS (BB Rank, no damage) is being worked on, and I've made significant progress. I'd loved to have released it by now, but I've been delayed by a load of things going on this year, but soon, soon I will finally publish it. 🔥 (I'm just not going to rush it as its my all time favourite and I'd like to do it justice.)

I got my Big Boss rank thanks to your amazing guide! I love how to the point you narrate everything and in a very entertaining way, too.

@SoulSignal 4 месяца назад

That's great to hear - even with some guidance, this run requires finesse, so well played! 🔥 And thank you for the awesome feedback. 🙏

Brroooo it was so so good. Loved the detail on each area the lore and of course the voice changes. Was amazing stuff!

@SoulSignal 11 месяцев назад

Thank you, man. Really appreciate hearing this. So much to learn still, I didn't realise how tough it would be to commentate on each beat when the action moves so fast. Can't wait to show more. 🔥

There's not that many Big Boss runs of MG out there - and all I could find up until now were runs skipped Madnar & Ellen entirely. Yeah, when you break down the game's design, the entire act of finding Madnar, then Ellen and returning to Madnar only exists for the player to learn how to defeat Metal Gear - but if you know, you can skip him entirely which is a bit silly from a story perspective going into Metal Gear 2. But this confirms it's absolutely possible to do a "Save Madnar, Big Boss Run".

@ZakRas 100%, man - I even kept CODEC conversations in, which added around 5 or so minutes to the final time. When I researched Big Boss rank, I remember seeing a comment on a forum saying it wasn't possible to save Madnar on Big Boss rank, but I wanted to try for story reasons and it turned out very comfortable. I do think it's awesome we have the option to skip that sequence, though.

Informative AND relaxing. Good stuff soul, keep em coming 💪

@SoulSignal 11 месяцев назад

Thank you so much. The idea is to make them chill, fun, informative, and to honour the stories in the games, too. 🙏

Good play through bro, I appreciate how you go in depth, this game is underrated along with the second, I’m remaking this game into an anime like episodic series on my channel, I imagine it will be remade at some point in the future hopefully! It has potential to be great! Big boss and solid snake in the same game was always awesome to me.

@SoulSignal 7 месяцев назад

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. I wanted to honour this game on the level of its brilliance for its time, despite visual and tech limitations that date the medium. So much of what is special to Metal Gear Solid is contained within these first two MSX releases, that even in its infancy, the major conflict at the heart of MGS's story is here. And agreed, Snake vs Big Boss is so cool. Your animated series looks awesome. I'll follow your work. Good luck and all the best, man. 🔥

I was not expecting to listen to the 50 min in one go 😆 Amazing Soul!🎉

@SoulSignal 11 месяцев назад

Ah, so awesome to hear that, mate. Thank you! 😊 🔥

@mingusmofaz5898 10 месяцев назад

All your videos are great thus far, love these thorough breakdowns of the entire process. The amount of commentary is just right too, very unobtrusive and gives some space for the game's ambience and mood to sink in. Very easy sub for me.

@SoulSignal 10 месяцев назад

Thank you for this great feedback. I'm encouraged by your words about the balance between commentary and allowing the game to breathe. I set out to achieve this by design, but as it's the first time I've recorded analysis like this, I expected to fine tune it in later video releases. It's motivating to hear the foundation is solid - moving forward. More to come soon. Thank you again. 🙏

@DaemonicGrim18 11 месяцев назад

@SoulSignal 11 месяцев назад

Thank you, man - really glad you enjoyed the playthrough! 🙏 "No big deal" cracked me up after every practice attempt. 😂

This is PS3. The original MSX2, bosses don't make a whining sound or change color when hit.

@SoulSignal 3 месяца назад

I ran this on the PC release (2020) just before MGS Master Collection's release. It's similar to the version I first played that came with MGS3: Subsistence (PS2, 2006), but I actually think the screen changes here are a slight bit slower. Each version has some minor differences. I labelled it [MSX] as it's the most direct way to reference the first Metal Gear in the series. I think the most impactful difference for this particular run is that on the original MSX2 version, you could actually shut down the final electric floor with a remote missile (the switch is hidden next to the door to Metal Gear). Later versions removed this - no rations, no saves would be much more comfy if this was still possible.

@justjarrodttv 11 месяцев назад

Excellent video. Nice editing and commentary. Very informative and calming. I don’t even know much about MGS but I was interested the whole time watching this. ❤

@SoulSignal 11 месяцев назад

Thank you so much, Jarrod. 🙏Truly awesome to hear, as the idea of this style of run is not just to inform how to do the challenge, but to also act as an entry point for those who haven't experienced them before.

@MiraGamingDK 11 месяцев назад

Awesome video so far Soul! Can't wait to see more

@SoulSignal 11 месяцев назад

Thank you, Mira. The best thing about YT is that the video can be watched at any pace compared to livestreams. 😅

@MiraGamingDK 11 месяцев назад

@@SoulSignal oh yeah 100% I love to be able to go back and watch something again if I didn't quite understand something or being able to pause and continue at the same place later

@Bitsandglory 11 месяцев назад

Great stuff, man! I've been wanting to play this for a long time

@SoulSignal 11 месяцев назад

It's brilliant and intense, especially on the first playthrough. It's available now, but it's also releasing again with the upcoming Master Collection. That will include the NES version, Snake's Revenge, and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake. A fantastic opportunity time to play them all.

@Bitsandglory 11 месяцев назад

Oh, sweet! I didn't realize it was going to be on the Master Collection. I'm definitely going to pick that up!@@SoulSignal
