Both have their pros and cons.

The pros of the PS1 version are the music and atmosphere. It really felt like a movie made into a great game. The difficulty was also more appropriate. Getting caught by guards usually has lethal consequences.

The cons of the PS1 version are that the bosses really weren't fun. Ocelot and Rex are the only really good ones. Everything else felt cheap, especially Sniper Wolf and Psycho Mantis. The aiming controls are the main culprit there.

The pros of Twin Snakes are obviously the graphics and controls upgrade. The first person shooting mode was much needed. This also improved the Psycho Mantis and Sniper Wolf bosses.

The cons of Twin Snakes are the absolutely stupid cutscenes and the unfitting soundtrack. It ruined the original atmosphere of the game. The graphics for some characters (especially the DARPA chief) were also really bad.

This has been my blog for today. I'm off to play Metal Gear Solid 2 next.
