Ok.
I have spent the last hour on Wikipedia trying to wrap my head around the Metal Gear Solid narrative. I'm starting with Metal Gear Solid (PS1) and backtracking to the third game, Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater.
I think I have a pretty basic understanding of how the story goes but there are so many varying plots subplots, factions, subfactions, multiple Snakes (Solid, Naked, Liquid, Solidus - WTF?), Dead Cell, Foxhound, The Patriots that I invariably get lost and a little frustrated. Could some of the Metal Gear enthusiasts on this board give me an overview of the main plot points and characters that I absolutely must be familiar with so that I can get full enjoyment out of the 4th and final game? Let's talk about some Metal Gear.
