Fan made Metal Gear videos

I have been a huge fan of the Metal Gear games for almost 10 years now. A few months ago I noticed a fan made film in the works called Metal Gear Outer Heaven. I read up on it, and waited, but it seemed to never actually release. But now its out.

So in the spirit of the Metal Gear goodness, I decided to do a quick run-through of my favourite fan-made films. Here are my top 10:

10. Metal Gear Awesome

This is probably my lest favourite. It is still good, but just not as good. It just has too many knee jerk, inconsequential, dirty jokes. That combined with the sloppy animation knocks it down a few rankings.

9. UltraNeki & Solid Snake Codec Scene!

This is awesome just because it has the actual voice actor of Solid Snake (David Hayter), doing custom voice overs.

8. David Hayter’s MGS 20th Year Tribute

Again, here is David Hayter (the voice of Snake) doing some action stuff. It is not really fan made, but still cool. And look! He speaks Japanese too.

7. Metal Gear Crisis 1.1

This is a new one for me. It is much better than the other fan-drawn ones. Because it does not completely fall down the toilet into humour, only little kids would laugh at. Nice animation technique too.

6. Metal Gear: Outer Heaven

This was a bit cheesy. And lacking many scenes, that are filled in with story boards. But it was a relatively large undertaking to make this long beast. I like how the actor they have play Snake, is much more agile than the usual brutes I see.

5. Metal Gear Solid Cast Improv

This is neat, because it shows the actual English voice actors from the games.

4. Mega64: Metal Gear Solid

One of the better, earlier Mega64 episodes. Surprised they did not get arrested running around, and acting like that.

3. Lupin III vs MGS

This is a parody of the original Lupin III into, but made to match the MGS characters. Very cool. And very good artwork. It must have taken a while to animate.

2. Metal Gear Solid: A Day At The Office

This was one of my favourite fan films for a while. It is cheesy as hell. But has some very clever humour. I especially liked the Albert Wesker joke, and the Monopoly game.

1. Metal Gear Solid: Dinner with the Snakes

My Faveorite. Very clever concept. You can see details from many of the MG games. Including Metal Gear Acid, and the original Metal Gear. Nice costumes too.

I saw that one when I was looking for new videos. I didn’t actually watch it till you posted it though. The “Snake Off” was a neat idea.

Thanks for the link to Acquiescence. The best part was the part about the riding lawn mower. Hilarious.
