You're listening to RetroNuts a part of the HyperX Podcast Network brought to you this week by Omaha Stakes.

This week in RetroNuts, Le Infom Teryb share their Teryb opinions.

Hi everyone, welcome to RetroNuts. This is episode 497. I am Jeremy Parish.

And this week we have another Hootnanny episode. We just did the Rehth and Evil Hootnanny.

And I really want to space these out so it doesn't seem like we're flogging a horse.

But some things happened, some plans fell apart. And now we are talking about Metal Gear.

And which games are the good ones and which ones are the bad ones?

So with me here to talk about these things, we have two other people with esteemed opinions about this esteemed series.

Who is that to my right?

Hey, it's me, Cat Bailey. I'm wielding a sniper rifle. I got some dogs taking out snake from across the map, then dying.

And this is Shane Bettenhausen. I'm very slowly ascending a ladder being filled with Anui.

Ah, wow. Anui. That stuff will weigh you down. It's going to take forever to climb that ladder.

Why do you have a soundtrack? Where's the soundtrack coming from?

It's deep in my brain, is I think about the persistence of memory.

It's the sound of love blooming on a battlefield, really.

So this being a Hootnanny episode, there are some simple rules that we will adhere to.

And those rules are one, our opinions are correct.

And at the end of this episode, this is the official canonical ranking of Metal Gear Games.

No one is ever allowed to dissent. And this is democratic.

So that is why it stands, it holds it's not just one person expressing their opinions.

I'm going to go through a list of Metal Gear Games chronologically.

And each of us is going to talk about our thoughts on that game.
