- In today's episode, I'm beginning the next Marathon as voted by you guys. It's Metal Gear!
Everyone knows of the Solid series, but what about where the series truly began? Today, I'm looking at four games, Metal Gear (MSX & NES), Snake's Revenge, and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake.

At the beginning the ONLY THING I could think of was:
Oh hai Mark
Hey Johnny what's up?
Oh my fucking god
Chicojim Productions Haha, what a story Mark.
📦🐍
BOXES
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I had NO idea about the Fuckme1111111111111 password oh my god, that's amazing
Nitro Rad I laughed so hard my eyes watered. Cause not only was it random when Johnny mentioned that, but how did the developers even get away with something like that, and who thought that should be a thing? XD
Imagine a kid being forced to type that out in the password.
The code wasn’t explicitly programmed. It came into existence by complete accident. It has something to do with how the game generates certain conditions. It just so happened that the Fuckme1111111111 code met those specific conditions.
Bradley Clark Dude same
@@adamhawksley1538 its too much of a coincidence imo
I like how Snake's character model gets thinner in Metal Gear 2. This series isn't about big hulking tough dudes. It's about clever sneaky dudes. Like, they should be fit, but Snake's not exactly supposed to be the Incredible Hulk.
+SelfAwarePedant It's funny you say that especially when in Metal Gear Solid he managed to withstand a close range canon blast with nothing more than an epic sliding action sequence (though I will say right now Twin Snakes...really LOVES the action sequences). =) Then you've got MGS4 raiden who manages to tank an armed nuclear weapons fortress with 1 arm no less. It really does make me appreciate how over the top MGS can be at times ^_^
+Adam Anouer And then you have Rising where Raiden tosses Metalgears around as if they were Styrofoam props.
+Blaze Howard Do you think Johnny gonna mention Acid and Acid 2?
Jaylen the Paintstic Probably and I'm gonna call it right now (because I've played them both). Both games are engaging and compulsively addictive as well. It actually kind of reminds me of the Battle Network series. There's something oddly thrilling about going into a mission and never being quite sure what card your gonna draw next or how it'll affect Snake in the current situation.
Man he needs to do a Jonny VS UNDER TALE
The Legend of Big Boss
Big Boss II: The Adventure of Snake
Zero perfection
The Legend of Big Boss: A Snake to the Past
The Legend of Big Boss: Snake’s Awakening
The Legend of Big Boss: Octacian of Time
That’s all I have for now
KumatoraBestGirl Moses warriors?
The Legend of Big Boss: Breath of the Snake
The Legend of Big Boss: Twilight Sniping
The Legend of Big Boss: Skyward Snake
Holy fuck these are 7 years old? That makes me so incredibly fucking old. I remember watching these as they were coming out and being so hyped for them.
Same… that was around the time i became a scj fanboy and i rewatch this series on the daily despite barely playing the games
Lol same here but these are a blast to watch. I’m about as old as Johnny is but seeing him so driven and still retain his passion I think really helps inspire those who are moving through life too.
20:49
Gray Fox: "Remember the Poisonous Hamsters Snake? The Poisonous Hamster from Zanzibar?"
Don't worry guys, it gets ONLY more confusing from here on.
Hehehehehehe.... Let's prepare ourselves for a crap ton of Johnny reviews ranging from 25 - 30 minutes!
for non mgs fans lol
+Solaris642 even as a metal gear fan myself I am still consufed from the series
Meh I can understand it..-_-
+Serrydartman about what?
Ohhhh mannnn. I'm going to love this marathon.
What's your favorite MG game?
+Ben Link That's kinda of a tough question. Gameplay wise it's TPP. Story wise it's a tie between MGS4 and MGS3.
+Daitomodachi I thought that MGS TPP was a little bit of a let down for me. since most of the characters I really...didn't get. I also think the gameplay is good, but the fetch quests are extremely annoying. So it's concept is "hell yeah" to me. While the gameplay in general is "meh" to me.
+Ben Link Storywise TPP was a HUUUUUUGGGGEEEEE let down for me. There were too much cut content and plot holes. I honestly suspect it had something to do with Konami's switch to mobile gaming or whatever they're doing now. Don't get me started on the plot twist at the end. But that's my opinion.
While the fetch quests were somewhat annoying,the biggest gameplay feature I absolutely hated was the repeat of missions. DON'T MAKE REPEAT MISSIONS PART OF THE MAIN STORY DAMNIT! But the amount of gameplay additions and the open world stealth was absolutely fantastic.
+Daitomodachi I totally agree with all of you on that. I just didn't want to go into detail because I might of opposed a game you think is great.
I can't wait for Penguin Adventure Solid.
Right? I even heard that Penguin Adventure Solid 3 is going to be a prequel where we see Big Penguin's past.
I don't know bout u guys but I felt like Penguin Adventure Solid: Ice Walker's story was a bit fillerific... but it was charming nonetheless.
MRS OBAMA GET DOWN!!
I think there was leaked footage of the penguin adventure movie.
@@calihyena8369 Didnt that get cancelled
"Who hasn't Big Boss swayed with his magical eyepatch?"
Well, Big Boss is a very charismatic individual. I mean, who could say no to that perfectly molded face...I mean, uh uh uh.
Fuck it. Big Boss is hot.
Look Solid is a perfect clone of Big Boss, and if you've seen how thicc he is in Smash, then yeah definitely
@@NeepNeepPohn well not a perfect clone but yeah
@@NeepNeepPohn Stupid sexy Snake in MGS4 with camera looking at his arse.
"John, you can barely fit in that thing"
"All I need is the butter. GET ME THE BUTTER!"

I don't know any pun to comeback that perfect godlike pun. I guess you PUNished me.
+Ben Link Damn that was pretty Punny.
+Michael Aiyedun That's a pretty SOLID pun.
You sly SNAKE.
I like my gear like I like my cups. Solid and Metal!
+Michael Aiyedun That pun was METAL
Highly. Poisonous. Hamsters.
QUALITY WRITING
Dat Bastard Oni that sounds like the worst house pet. Also sounds like the best defence pet.
Lol
it's just a fun quirky ness to this series. Stop getting over sensitive about and mocking it as if it needs ridicules. The writing is great and was just a fun little feature to it that's not to be taken too serious.
Sounds like something that Gundham Tanaka would want.
@@MegaAnimazing I see you're a person of culture as well.
I love how people are still arguing about Metal Gear vs Earthbound. They're both completely different games, can you really say which is the better? It's like saying Doom is better than Animal Crossing, or Portal better than Rayman.
klonoa48 when was this ever an argument?
@Gavinatorization huh. I assumed they were comparing the two series.
Aged perfectly.
That DOOM and Animal Crossing comment has aged VERY well.... 🤣🤣
@@gjtrue Top 10 comments that aged well
Well thanks John. You kept me waiting until 1 in the morning.
+MrTrollTroller more like 4am on the dot for est people.
+NEETisLEET Damn
+MrTrollTroller I'm with you man, I was just about to fall asleep and then I get a notification on my phone from CZcams, I guess I'll stay up till 1:30.
I FEEL ASLEEP!!
+MrTrollTroller You think THAT's bad, he kept me waiting til' 2 in the morning.
Stupid timezones...
I'm glad this is a longer video. Metal Gear is really a series that warrants it.
+RoboHoundGames I agree. He'll probably put multiple games in one video for the smaller spin-offs.
+RoboHoundGames Not really.
Unshaved Malevolence No?
RoboHoundGames Nah.
+Unshaved Malevolence yeah it does
So are we all going to ignore that Snake is Kyle Reese from Terminator?
+MisterX867 Yeah, surprised he didn't mention that.
In the first one, but not the second one.
+BludhavenNight44 Yeah, in the original MSX Metal Gear 2, he resembles Mel Gibson.
+spongebobfan190 We aren't talking about IN the game, just on the cover. The cover of the first game IS Kyle Reese from the first Terminator movie, it doesn't just look like him, it IS him.

DivaFan319 The guy I was replying to acknowledged that Snake resembled Kyle Reese on the cover of the first game, then said that Snake doesn't look like Reese in Metal Gear 2, and I told him that in Metal Gear 2 (the original MSX version, not the MGS3 re-release), Snake looks like Mel Gibson (at least in the intro cutscene). I guess I just worded my comment wrong, my bad.

Amazing work as always Johnny! Congrats and thanks a lot for such an amazing video! - Sarda
@_ D0ct0r _ Woah woah woah, calm down there.
This Metal Gear marathon is still, in my opinion, Johnny at his absolute best. The production qualities, pacing of information, and vocal delivery is so polished and every little detail is scrutinized. You really poured your heart and soul into these vids Johnny, and I look forward to you surpassing them. So far, the Resident Evil marathon is going very well, and Mega Man X is up there too.

@@Mobysimo what's that supposed to mean?
To be fair, Big Boss rocks that eye patch pretty well. Coupled with the moustache, beard, and gray hair, you have a pretty cool old guy.
Finally! A legitimately detailed review of the Metal Gear series without any over-the-top mock scenes, and really unnecessary humor other youtubers keep doing. Keep it up Johnny, you've made yourself my favorite reviewer when it comes to video games.

9:25 "The opening drops Snake off in a jungle via Helicopter."
A helicopter?
Everyone makes mistakes.
The radar in MG2 was actually handled better than in MGS.
+gilgamesh310 Mainly, since it was actually a new stealth feature for the time and it didn't give away the enemies' cones of vision.
Jak Mar You also didn't need to spend as long looking at it. You could see more in front of you, on the field of play. MGS1 severely limited that with its camera.
Especially considering that staring at the radar made MGS1 10 times easier (seriously, everyone who watches gameplay footage of MGS after playing it instinctively stares at the radar, that's how bad the issue is) where, in MG2, you need to find a proper balance between watching the radar and the screen if you want to survive.
*"FUCK ME"*
Metal Gear: Sure thing~
it even grew a penis in the second game
Accept no Substitutions hot
Essentially it's thanks to the NES that the Metal Gear franchise was able to grow into a mega franchise from it's humble MSX start.
+Sjono Actually I'd argue that the Playstation had more of a say in that then the NES ever did. Yeah the first game got a lot of people introduced to the Metal Gear franchise but then the second one (the NES one) completely undermined the model Kojima was going for and got buried by obscurity until the PS1 truly highlighted what it was Kojima wanted for his series in terms of scale, mechanics, story and scope it's what truly showed what Metal Gear was all about. Not that I dislike the NES but Snakes Revenge plays out more like a cliche action flick rather than following the deep subtext of the original.
+Adam Anouer Not really, the PS1 game made it more popular but had it not been for NES MG and Snake's Revenge then Kojima would have just abandoned the series and never touched it again.
Bless ya Berry Box that's true. =) Plus Ghost Babel was amazingly fun.
Adam Anouer Yeah that's a good game and it's fairly sad how underrated that game is
Berry Box i don't think I'd call it underrated since it received widespread critical acclaim and personally I loved the way it dealt with iitem management (If you remember Johnny''s review about Links Awakening and the way it constantly broke the pace with item switching). Unfortunately the one thing it also received was quite a short print run which makes it tricky to find the game. The game really needs to be released on the 3ds virtual console.
Actually Johnny the reason MG2 has those cryptic tap codes and frequency changes was to prevent pirating.
Basically a more elaborate measure of a simple cd code.
But if it means screwing the people playing the ports, is it really worth it?
@@jebronlames987 I mean back in the 90s it probably was, that’s more on the fault on porting the game and not having a code card with it.
Even the PS Classic version of MGS still kept the Meryl codec on the back of the box.
I've gotta hand it to you Johnny, your reviews are getting better and better. I think it has a lot to do with your delivery. In older reviews you sounded a little more bland and monotone, but recently you sound so jolly and animated.
Hey cool Mark's back! Glad to see he's doing well! :D
Return of Jerry.
+mechashadow Welp
+mechashadow aw... damn it, i need to ditch it AGAIN?
No offense to Mark and this is probably because he hasn't been making reviews for half a decade, but Mark is kind of a horrible actor if that intro proves anything.
+Shaddy I reckon it's just because he isn't used to being on camera. His acting is hilariously bad though so that could be the point
STILL love watching these Metal Gear reviews on the regular. Well done Johnny! Btw I always assumed that the three other people who drop from the plane in the NES Metal Gear intro are Schneider, Diane and Jennifer.
Your comment is the only one on this video that isn't at least 4 years old at the time of writing this. Congratulations.
To be believe that a bunch of modern games with amazing graphics and refined gameplay are prequels to these 8-bit games feels like such a whiplash when you play these games in chronological order.
I see this in my sub box, and I have to leave for school in two minutes, why Johnny?
Are you still in school?

So happy people voted these games over Earthbound.

+youthnando91 not surprising. EB is not nearly as popular as MG despite its critical acclaim.

@@SolidMike84 that was a mistake and you know it!
@@diannejohn5346
Sure it was.
Doesn't change the fact that it wasn't a helicopter.
@@SolidMike84 then shut up.
This plot may be really simple by today's standards, but for 1987 it's impressive that the game actually had a story, much less a plot twist.
"Getting the 411 on enemy behavior."
*Screen shows information about how many mice are in the world.*
wat?
Johnny, you NEED to review these games inside a cardboard box, to get the true spirit of the MGS series.
And people say the plot of kingdom hearts is confusing.
+BlueSilver at least there are people who can actually explain metal gear. Not even square enix understands what the fuck is up with kingdom hearts plot
joakkar I can explain kingdom hearts, and so can alot of other people.
no, you can't. There's literally stuff the creators themselves haven't bothered explaining and they're hoping to cash in on even more extensions to birth by sleep to do it. The only games I haven't played so far are DDD and Re:Coded but I doubt they explain where riku got the keybade he just randomly gave kairi at the end of KH2, when did namine randomly dissapear and appear as some ghost thing in KH2, or why donald and goofy are unable to recognize roxas in the picture form KH2 given they were pretty close to Ventus in BBS and they look exactly the same. I mean seriously, they haven't even explained why nobody from radiant garden can recognize kairi despite her being the princess and that was back from the first game.
First off, you dont know me to tell me i cant explain the plot. Secondly Namine didnt disappear she just recombined with ,kairi. Third, the only people from hollow bastion that we meet are leon and the gang.Also its been like ten years and the only similarities are that she still has red hair. Fourth numora says that the whole riku getting kairi's keyblade thing will be explained by kh3. And last but not least, donald and goofy are just stupid. They dont recognize yen sid's tower in kh2 either, but numora says its because yen sid redecorated.
+joakkar Riku's Keyblade: I'll give you this and pulling Kairi's Keyblade from nothing. Considering the last time we saw him he STILL had Soul Eater, I don't know how he got Way to the Dawn yet (or whatever the hell hilariously colorful one he gave Kairi). If they waited until AFTER the anti-KH weapon threw a bunch of light on him to give him that, it'd make a little more sense.
Namine's appearances: Her ties to Sora. They plainly state how they connect this when Roxas talks to Kairi in the prologue. And Namine says later they'll still be around as long as Sora and Kairi stay close. So Sora comes running for her, Roxas ends up being sort of awake (might explain the scene with Axel) and Namine breaks Kairi out.
Donald and Goofy not relating Roxas to Ventus: Pretty much a lazy retcon, same with Donald freaking out that Yen Sid lives at the tower. Ven didn't exist as a character yet, so they flat-out goofed on that continuity.
Nobody recognizing Kairi: The last time the Final Fantasy Radiant Garden group could have possibly seen her was when she was like three/four years old, I heavily doubt ANYONE from Radiant Garden actually knew what their toddler princess looked like.
am I the only person missing the gbc title? because it was honestly amazing gameplay-wise despite the silly story
+joakkar Oh absolutely the one thing that blew my mind about it is how well it adapted Item Management considering it only had 5 buttons to work with. :) Really fun game too.
oh I kinda forgot that gbc is part of the ps1 gen. I guess it technically would fall in the solid series video then. I just thought it was weird for him not to mention it since he even bothered playing like 4 different versions of bubsy so I take it he pretty much never misses titles
It's the best I've played, hope he gets around to it. Honestly it beats out mgs3 for me, because the game design is just more varied and interesting. Lots of set pieces and new stuff pretty much every level, and all of it is fun. It's amazing what they could do with the gbc.
It's non canon,well the 2 NES games are as well.
Chris Sukam To be fair so is Twin Snakes, & Ghost Babel. Nonetheless however they are part of the series and a very worthy games to the series I might add.
i know im late, but the joke about the "fuck me" code is wrong. it does spawn you at the metal gear room, but WITHOUT every weapon in the game, in fact, they spawn you with only cigarettes. hence why you input "fuck me".
also a second revision removed the code, it was only on some cartridges.
In that case, I'm glad Johnny played one with it intact
One of my favorite video game franchises ever made. Sad to know that we'll probably never get another installment though...
#FucKonami
It's a shame really.
Ben Link It really is.
RIP Metal Gear, RIP Castlevania, RIP every other Konami franchise.
Maciek Skywalker And they'll all be shitty mobile games.
+Maciek Skywalker I can't wait for the next gamr :[)
+Omar Elmosrati
The Metal Gear franchise needed to be put down a long time ago.
So far so good. I dont even care how long these take to make but TAKE YOUR TIME w this series! Absorb and re absorb all of the convolutedness we've come to love
By technicality, Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake were actually bonuses from the PS2 (re)release "Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence," where it was included on Disc 2 of the set, making their U.S. debut in 2006 alongside Metal Gear Online among other goodies.
+Raven Night Ah MGS Online :) That was so much fun back in the day. By the way cool Yubel.
As soon as I get up there's a new video?! That's awesome
The moment I saw this in my notifications I clicked without hesitation
+bigdjman45 Ear Rape is when a very long and loud noise plays unexpectedly.
Don't try to hesitate, let it flow baby. Click that thumbnail.
+Dillon the Hedgehog and “DJ Ear Rape” Stream the Fox um. congrats?

I'm loving the professionalism that is happening in your recent vids, John.
Coming from someone who hasn't experienced the Metal Gear franchise (yet), this was a joy to watch & didn't really spoil anything for me.
Keep up the good work! :)
Great to see the start of the marathon, i was getting really anxious
Hmm, a password called "Fuck me" huh? Well, and I thought your Wii U letting you watch porn was Nintendo's big screw up in trying to make themselves "family friendly." By the way, I'm not kidding, you can actually watch porn on your Wii U.
+PyroFinnTheManiac And 3DS.
Why do you think everyone bought the console?
+PyroFinnTheManiac HOW?
you can with all consoles that have a browser
+557deadpool But we all bought the console to watch porn with that Nintendo "charm" :^)
this review is over a year old, my god where has the time gone?
Johnny a couple things I want to add with MG2
!. They technically fixed the card swapping issue in away, you can find colored security cards that combine 3 cards into 1 like the red master card being cards 1-3 combined together, the blue master card being cards 4-6, and so on. Granted you still have to swap between different cards to open unmarked doors but I think its better to swap between 3 cards to open a door as opposed to swapping between 9 cards
!!. To elaborate more on MG2's development cycle, during the time Snake's Revenge was in development, one of the developers actually found himself on the same train ride with Mr. Kojima himself. He informed Kojima that they had a sequel for the NES version in the works and asked Hideo Kojima to make the true sequel to Metal Gear 1. So Kojima made Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake on what sounded like a dare
What really cracks me up is that it sounds like even one of the devs for Snake's Revenge was like "Nah, this ain't a sequel. Kojima, show them how it's done."
you kept me waiting John and the video was TOTALLY..
WORTH IT
Wait...two guys named Johnny and Mark...sounds familiar...
Oh hai Mark!
Speaking of Dr. Madnar, it would be interesting if you ended this marathon with a review of SNATCHER.
Nice timing there dude, uploaded this exactly when I woke up. Great video man, as always.
I've lost track how many times I've watched this video. I think this is my favourite review of yours period. I can't put my finger on why but... it's so soothing.
Are you also going to review Raiden's game? Metal Gear Solid Rising Revengence... Or no?
+SonicMaster211 I remember hearing him say in an earthbound stream that he will cover it
+AJ Camacho (Hero of the Multiverse) There is no "Solid" in the title for these game either man...
+AJ Camacho (Hero of the Multiverse) its a metal gear marathon
not a metal gear solid marathon
+Jerec 12 Doesn't matter he said he may review AcId and that's not canon either. Is there's enough space for it then I assume he will but for the moment I'd say he's more like going to take the main titles ya know?
+Adam Anouer Rising is canon.
kingdom hearts marathon next please
I second this
The story will be.... interesting
Ooh! Yes! Pls do it Johnny!
the story if a fucking mess
***** I agree 100%. That's why I think it's perfect for Johnny:) just look at how the Metal Gear series went!
A long review! And about one of my favorite video game series! This is gonna be a great marathon.
Oho man this marathon's gonna be fun! Great to see you doing reviews again Johnny!
MSX was not a PC Brand. It was a computer standard.Kind of like the IBM PC standard and Tandy standard. Think of it as MAC vs PC.
I wanted Starfox... :C
Oh well. At least someone is finally talking about the OG Metal Gear.
First NES game I ever played.
Too bad that version is not considered part of the story x)
I'm talking about the NES version of Metal Gear. :/ The MSX version is the one that is part of the Metal Gear storyline.
He will get to the StarFox games until he gets the Metal Gear & the Earthbound games out of the way first.
Besides those two were the most requested.
UtherSwagBringer Big Boss never told Snake he was his father, thats MGS1 retconing the final battle of MG2.
Dude, just found your channel. You legit have one of the best gaming channels on youtube. Really appreciate your work brotha!!
Ugh I did all this too... Metal gear 1 .... Was maddening
+pyrolee17 Yeah it took me a while to figure out that BS with the egg too.
friggin snakes ate my damn rations!
It really grinds your gears now, right?
Johnny, will this marathon only include the mainline stuff (MGS2, Snake Eater, Guns of the Patriots, Portable Ops, Peace Walker, Ground Zeroes, and Phantom Pain?

Oh boy, this marathon is going to be great ! Glad i voted
John I'm so proud of you dude! The quality of this video compared to the oldies, you've came a long way friend. and I feel old..
It's actually known that the Big Boss that Snake took out in the original Metal Gear is Venom Snake, Big Boss' phantom from Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. Interesting, right?
@Ultimate Hedgehog yes it is
TempestMask1000 Pretty obvious and intuitive so
Nothing extraordinary.. yet.
BladeBlur Oh hi. Didn’t know you were a fan of Johnny. Love your videos btw
This is not only one of you best reviews, but it is one of the BEST reviews I've ever seen. Good Job Johnny
Glad your back Johnny. Can't wait for Metal Gear Solid!
so in the 1st game venom snake dies?
ChaosN yeah
I figured he was killed of in Metal Gear 2, since that is the game where you see "Big Boss" get incinerated. And yet he is completely okay in Metal Gear Solid 4, and we were given not a single explanation.
BobTheArchmage Venom was killed in MG1. In MG2 snake severely burned BB and the patriots took BBs body and used parts from Liquid & Solidus and kept him in a deep sleep.
i have never player a metal gear game but...
jesus christ, that's a new level of fucked up stuff (the good one)
Snake ...is almost as old as Mr. Game n Watch...Smash Ultimate Snake!!
The keycard system is somewhat improved in MG2SS. For every three cards you collect, you can swap them for a "master card" in building one that does the work of all three. Once you've collected all 9 cards and swapped them for the 3 masters, you can swap them for a card that does the work of card 1-9.
You are hands down my favorite game reviewer. Props to you man keep it up!
how is it that the A.I. in the 80s MG is better than ALL of the MGS games?
+557deadpool Hell even the inanimate projectiles have better AI then MGS3 does.
PikaLink91
no, because they're poorly made games
+557deadpool Because TPP doesnt make any sense

@somecallmeJohnny its good to have you back man, I love your marathons but with this review is just what i needed and i'm so excited for more. I can not wait to see your marathon of all 3 franchises your planning and i definitely can not wait till your next review. Keep kicking ass and Playin' Games Johnny :D
This marathon will be amazing.
I love this, Johnny ^-^ Glad I got back to watching you .
Loved the video, and that 2D swaying part was adorable
Stayed up past midnight for this!
And the soundtrack to Metal Gear 2 is probably the best in the series. So varied and atmospheric.
The lighting in this new room is wonderful^^
Great review as always!
Man, now this is a great way to begin the Metal Geat Marathon, and it is going to get better!!! :D
Always good to see mark again
Great review John! I've never played the Metal Gear games, but I'll probably give them a chance after watching your reviews. This will be a fun marathon! :D
Now THAT's research. And it's noce to see you directly played every version of every game.
Metal Gear Marathon! It can't be!
I'm looking forward to it. :)
Nice research. Great series
A great start to the Marathon Johnny. :)
Great wok ohn! Love the new look of the vid! Great Quality!
johnny i need you to know that this was the series that got me into the metal gear games in 7th grade. i remember people weren't happy that you did EVERY GAME but i wouldn't have it any other way.
I really like what you've done to your room.
You took on quite a project Johnny but i am certain you can do it ( also very excited!).
You are really improving as a youtuber why are you not more popular you really deserve it :)
So happy to have Johnny back!
Those first 20 seconds already had me falling out of my chair. xD
Can't wait for part 2.
This is probably gonna be Johnny's greatest marathon yet.
