I like all the MGS series and all its music. It's a great series I think. The composers for the first Metal Gear Solid are
Takeshi Honda, Hidenori Miyanaga, Junichiro Tsutsui and Yoko Matsutani if you want to know.

I dont think the Metal Gear 1 music is to clever, but since Harry joined with stuff like SNAKE EATER, its been dam good.

Has every1 seen the new trailer that lasts like 15minutes?

MGS4 is practiclly the reason I am buying a PS3.
Aside from Final Fantasy, it is my favorite series.
And for all you hardcore MGS fans, you should know the great story behind MGS.

The Main MGS Theme is still the best song.

Metal Gear Solid has a unique music style. It's differs from most of other games' music style. Harry is movie composer, so this style is obvious in MGS 2 and 3.

PSOnes's MGS was good but conventional, repeating tracks looping infinitely like most RPGs.

Metal Gear Solid 2's OST wasn't all that good IMO and definetely buying (or downloading ^_^ ) the soundtrack by someone who hasn't played the game results in dissapointment.

MGS3's music is awesome, it's composed almost equally by both Harry Gregson-Williams and Norihiko Hibino. They both have done a great job.
FYI, Harry didn't plan on composing for MGS3 unless it (the game) took place in a jungle, and coincidentally Kojima's plan for MGS3 was a prequel occuring during 60s in a jungle. This means that chances are that Harry won't compose for MGS4, but the trailer song is damn moving.

http://gamemusicimages.com/kmca127.html
http://gamemusicimages.com/kmca144.html

12 out of 37 tracks. That's less than half.

He's a movie composer. He composed the music for some of the game's cutscenes, but he didn't compose any of the in-game looping music.

Anyway, yeah, the game's music is awesome. But I wish people would credit the right composer. That's like crediting Nobuo Uematsu for doing Final Fantasy Tactics' OST.

I'd say it's more like Zimnyaya Doroga (http://dl.zvuki.ru/3/0036/mp3/9.mp3) (Winter Road) - a different version of the same music from Sviridov's "Metel" (Blizzard) cycle. I guess Tappy definitely heard Sviridov before composing the original MG theme.
Btw, I've heard a guy from a Russian gaming magazine met with Kojima at E3 2006 and let him listen this music on his PSP. Kojima's eyes just popped out :) - he didn't know wat to say.

There's a rare album called "MetalGear -> Solid Snake, Red Disc". It's about old Metalgear game midi and other relative Electronic style music. I do like this one. And also, you can here some similar parts in MGS3 Main theme composed by Harry Gregson-Williams.

I like Harry Gregson-Williams' MGS3 theme cuz I can here some minor parts from previous theme, MGS2, MGS1 also the Red disc. It's funny and make me bloodlust =;-) while I heard the brass and theme from MGS1.

I have to say it:

Even if MGS2&3 are better games than MGS (for most people), my heart is with MGS.
The music, the mistery, the reaction when you found out that liquid is snake's brother...
That game shocked me in almost every way.
When I played KOTOR 1, and you get to that part where there are a sith diplomat, and is Cam Clarke's voice... omg.

Anyway, I prefer the songs of mgs, but Snake Eater and Way to fall are awesome songs.

EDIT: Anybody knows what is the theme from the mgs4 15min trailer?

The guitar theme from the trailer... I believe could possibly be Harry Gregson-Williams, we don't know for sure who did that song yet, but we do know he is doing the music for the game.

But they usually get someone different to do the vocal themes for each game. The song however has not been released yet, so we will just have to wait. Sorry.

Yeah, Harry Gregson Williams will be doing MGS4 soundtrack too. And most probably the movie as well.

mgs1 was done by someone i can't remember but i do know they're very good. and they still contribute a large amount to the scores in mgs2,3 and 4.

they have to work closely with gregson williams to make it all come together.

For the score of MGS2: Norihiko Hibino / Harry Gregson Williams / Roman A. Scorpio (on Substance for "Metal Gear Solid Main Theme -Skateboarding Remix- / Sanae Shintani (Minor colaboration) / Rika Muranaka / Carla White (Vocals on "Can't say goodbye to Yesterday")
For the score of MGS3: Harry Gregson-Williams / Norihiko Hibino / Cynthia Harrell / TAPPY / Starsailor / Elisa Fiorillo (Vocals on "Don't be afraid")
