Top 10 Metal Gear Solid Bosses

Hideo Kojima's Metal Gear Solid series is known for having incredible boss fights. Whether the gameplay itself was fun or the character just stuck in our mind as particularly awesome, here are the top 10 Metal Gear Solid bosses.
What do you think of our list? Have your say by casting your own votes in our audience ranking of thetop Metal Gear Solid bosses here:
The big encounter with the nuclear-armed bipedal tank, dubbed Metal Gear REX, brought a chilling edge to the final moments of the Shadow Moses Incident. Kojima and his team spent a lot of the story building up this potential nuclear threat. The fight itself was quite a spectacle, even by the graphics standards of 1998. The DARPA-built monstrosity had all the weapons: a mounted laser, rotating cannons, anti-tank missiles, and a token weak spot just like Star Wars' Death Star. In fact, it was a hell of a fight, that jumped from gameplay to cutscene seamlessly, but the cruel twist at the end, where an old friend sacrificed himself in order to help Snake put REX down for good, made it memorable.
The first battle with the "Cyborg Ninja" (aka Frank Jaeger) is easily one of the most intense boss fights in Metal Gear history, but more than that, it's downright creepy. At this point in the original Metal Gear Solid, we don't know that locked deep inside that exoskeleton is Snake's old friend Frank, but he certainly has a score to settle. During your hand-to-hand brawl, the Ninja backflips, he deflects bullets, he disappears into thin air. All the while, he's taunting you, begging you to hurt him, dropping subtle clues that Snake should remember him. It's a palpable tension, both narratively and in the gameplay. This battle made you sweat, and left you with more questions than answers about your formerly fallen comrade.
Whether you’re dodging the deadly water jet cutter of Ray, or going head to head against the madly named Sahelanthropus, there’s no shortage of Metal Gear’s to eliminate throughout the series, but Colonel Volgin’s Metal Gear progenitor, the Shagohod, has cemented it’s ranking by offering an over the top, twenty plus minute battle.
It features an intense on-rails motorbike chase while escaping the crumbling Groznyj Grad fortress, a sweat-inducing sniper section that tasks you with perfectly timing the detonation of a bridge and an explosive RPG-filled finale against the nuclear-armed tank itself. Oh, and after all that, you’ve still got to fight everyone’s favourite electrically charged Soviet. All of this culminates in an over-the-top boss-ending cutscene, involving a bolt of lightning, and one toasty Colonel.
One of the franchise’s most bizarre enemies, this battle against the gluttonous rollerblading enthusiast was not only a test of

Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection belongs in a museum
In August, Konami announced that it would be celebrating the Metal Gear Solid series’ anniversary with a series of ports. Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 would bring games that were previously unavailable on modern consoles and PC to a new generation of players. The collection, which was released on Oct. 24, has provided something more than that: It’s made games available that were otherwise inaccessible without older hardware, extremely expensive physical editions, or emulation. It allows players to own these games without fear of them being delisted or vanishing.

'This is only the beginning': Metal Gear Solid fans lose their minds as David Hayter returns to voice Solid Snake in a new teaser
Even among Hideo Kojima's most diehard fans (not to be confused with Die-Hardman), I think it's a damn near universal opinion that Kojima made the wrong call when he replaced longtime voice actor David Hayter with Kiefer Sutherland in Metal Gear Solid 5. It didn't help that compared to Hayter's gravelly-but-slightly-goofy performance, Sutherland seemed a bit subdued—or phoned in, depending on who you ask.

The new Metal Gear Solid 3 remake trailer played me like a fiddle
This week saw the release of Metal Gear Solid: The Master Collection, which makes one of the great gaming series available once more on contemporary platforms. It should have been cause for great celebration but… oh dear, oh dear oh dear. These compilations are more complex and harder work than we the audience often assume but, even so, it's striking that Konami sent out its crown jewels in anything less than fully polished condition.
