Question

ok i i thought it goes mgs mgs 1 then 2 then 3 then 4

but its not its in soke other order so can some help me sort it out because i heard mgs2 is after 3 but 3 is so much more advacned ??

Answer 1

They were released in this order:

Metal Gear
Metal Gear 2 (both of these are very old games that you might not have heard of, but they introduce Big Boss, Zanzibar and Solid Snake)

Metal Gear Solid ("MGS1")
Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty
Metal Gear Solid 3
Metal Gear Solid 3: Portable Ops on PSP
Metal Gear Solid 4 (not yet out)

BUT, if you follow the storyline of the series, it progresses like this:

Metal Gear Solid 3
MGS3: Portable Ops
Metal Gear
Metal Gear 2
Metal Gear Solid
Metal Gear Solid 2
Metal Gear Solid 4

Just because one was released later than another one doesn't mean that it takes place later than the other one.
