New copies are still being sold via Amazon, and for much cheaper no less.
Why run the risk with a private seller?
It's like $25 on Amazon US. If you're on some other country the price may be different.
If you have a PS3, pick up Metal Gear Solid: Legacy Edition for around $32. In one box you get:
Cannot play the PS3 games on your vita unfortunately. I'd love if they have you vita cross buys with it, but they don't.
And when you're done, sell it used to recoop some cost.
Get the legacy collection on disc, and you can get every game in the series up to MGS 4. 2,3, and Peacewalker also get graphics and performance upgrades. Here’s a link to the Amazon page https://www.amazon.com/Metal-Gear-Solid-Legacy-Collection-Playstation/dp/B00KTZELMY/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?crid=1W1QI6CAHWLE3&keywords=metal+gear+solid+legacy+collection&qid=1667402822&qu=eyJxc2MiOiIzLjEwIiwicXNhIjoiMS45NiIsInFzcCI6IjEuNjgifQ%...
I'm saying "more people" are an extremely little minority at this point.
If they had no interest in playing these games over the past 2 decades, it's very unlikely to change.
Not to mention you can still buy NEW physical copies for $25 that has the whole series. So it really is a non issue.
Metal gear is a must. Get the metal gear collection. There are two available get the one that has all of them including MGS4.

> If you have a PS3 I would def suggest you pick up the HD collection.
I would suggest the Legacy Collection instead. With it, you get the HD collection, MGS4, digital codes for MGS1 and MGS:VRM, and the Digital Graphic Novels for MGS1 and MGS2.

if you don’t buy from amazon, ebay has similar prices
make sure you buy it sealed! do not buy it used, MGS1 and vr missions come in voucher codes and you need them unused
Gledao sam ranije po netu, ima tipa ova kolekcija. Da li je najbolje jednostavno uzeti to za PS3?
I'd recommend the Legacy Collection new off Amazon. I got the one without the artbook for $29.99. I wanted the codes for MGS1 and MGS VR Missions so I could download them to my Vita (MGS1 needs a PS3 to transfer in NA, FYI). Even at that price for the amount of games you're getting, this is a steal. I've only ever beat MGS 1 & 2. MGS1 for PS1 may be hard for someone who's never played it before to get into. If you played action games from the PS1/N64/Dreamcast era though you should be able to pick up and play. Easy mode is pretty damn easy for MGS games (MGS2 even has a "very easy" mode if I'm not mistaken) so if you just want to play and catch up on the story for those games, you can do so with minimal frustration. If you like a challenge, start on Normal and work your way up.
EDIT: $29.99 Canadian, FYI. Looks like it's down to $27.50 now too https://www.amazon.ca/Metal-Gear-Solid-Legacy-Collection/dp/B00KTZELMY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1466955575&sr=8-1&keywords=metal+gear+legacy
There is another one sold directly from Konami for 34 USD, also provides the prime service if you have it. Here is the link
EDIT: Removed referral link from link.
> My only question is will NTSC games work on a PAL system?
Yup, PS3 games aren't region locked. I have a PAL (Australian) system and I've bought games from the US and Europe (including the U.S. Legacy Collection), worked perfectly. It's just downloadable stuff that requires an overseas account to get, but that's not hard to setup. Here's an Amazon UK link (Don't mind the 3 star rating, it's just people that didn't know you needed an overseas PSN account)
Huh? Amazon and eBay exist in the UK, just search the UK version.
Just a heads up the MetalGear Legacy Collection is on Amazon for $20
It's only like $25 on amazon?

Not at all a ridiculous suggestion, IMO. Especially if OP has a PS3. For ~$50, OP could have every game on the list. The PS3 Legacy Collection has nearly the whole list itself--MG, MG2, MGS, MGS2 HD, MGS3 HD, MGS PW, an MGS4--and can be purchased for $25 on Amazon. OP already has MGS5, GZs for PS3 is $13, and MGR:R is $11. Even if OP needed to purchase a PS3, they can be found for less than $100.
Don’t know how much this cost you but it’s still available on disc new for a very reasonable price.

The Legacy Edition seems to have all of them (even the old ones - Amazon link) but is quite hard to find and therefore expensive.
The HD Collection (Amazon link) is more recent therefore more abordable but only has three games so you'd need to find the rest; I think MGS1 can be purchased on the PlayStation Store and MGS4 can easily be found second-hand
This will be the release order for the game and the recommended order to view them. I started playing them from MGS1 and will play MG1 and MG2 at a later date.
Metal Gear Solid 4 with no gameplay
Metal Gear Solid 4 with gameplay
Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker short
Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker long
Chronologically it goes MG3, MGSPW, MGSGZ, MG1, MG2, MGS1, MGS2, MGS4.
Metal Gear Solid: The Phantom Pain will Happen After Ground Zero.
You could jump into Phantom Pain from what I heard,
"I guess I tried to use what we did in Peace Walker to bring this motivation to Ground Zeroes. Then you might ask, will the people who didn't play Peace Walker be able to understand what is going on in the game. Well because there are 9 years between Ground Zeroes and the beginning of Phantom Pain.
So when the Phantom Pain starts, Snake is in a similar position to the player that is playing Metal Gear Solid for the first time - there is a huge blank that he need to fill in, and he has to figure out what happened during those 9 years as he completes missions. I'm trying to make the game in way that people who are playing MGS for the first time will at some point have a similar understanding and level of motivation to those who have played Peace Walker."
If you'll like to play the games, Metal Gear Solid Legacy comes with all the games I mentiond exept for Ground Zero.
Have Fun
