Metal Gear Solid has been my all time favorite series of all time for so long...but recently I got into Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory...and I must say, it was excellent I must say. The thing about metal gear that got old to me were the terrible camera angles you get throughout the game...they frustrate me so much. Also, you are very limited to what you can do in the MGS series also. Now Splinter Cell is a different story. The camera angles are very good, and can even be adjusted to accomodate you. The thing that gets me about Chaos Theory is how much you can do in the game. The game accomodates many types of gameplay, so whether you like to run in and shoot everything, or if you perfer to go through the game stealthily, the game supports both types of play. There are also many ways to dispatch of enemies, or hide from enemies, which is very cool some of the things you can do. Now graphics wise, although MGS Snake Eaters looked very good, Chaos Theory has it beat I'm afraid. Not only does it have awsome crisp graphics, but it also has a very good physics engine and ragdoll physics (very cool)!!

My final vote goes to Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory because of its awsome gameplay, incredible graphics, and excellent sounds.

Really, I think Splinter Cell is much better, graphics are better and the game options and moves are better

Metal Gear The complete series just due to the fact that it has had a long series and the story line get better and better with each game can't wait till 4 comes out hopefully completing the series (hopefully not).

Metal Gear Solid - 100% - ALL THE WAY!

I think Metal Gear Solid is better because it really does have better stories and to me is just alot more enjoyable. Never really got into Splinter Cell, a bit boring compared to Metal Gear Solid.

It's all about Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory. The lever of stealthiness (spelling?) that you ahve to maintain in that game makes it so intense....and messing around with people by either shooting out a light here or throwing a rock at the back of their heads makes it more enjoyable.

Splinter Cell - 3
Metal Gear - 2

I love the Metal Gear games, and have played them countless times, especially MGS1. I've never been a huge Spliter Cell fan though, so I can't really comment on it.

I'm looking forwards to MGS4 so much now too:D

Splinter Cell..!

I've never had a playstation, and thus didn't get a chance to play Metal Gear Solid, but Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory really is a superb game (although it's predecessors aren't near as good; they were all building up to Chaos Theory). I'm most statisfied with how flexible the objectives are. In the first two Splinter Cell games, if you broke an objective such as not to be seen or not to kill, you would instantly lose, while in Chaos Theory, the rules are often much more flexible when it comes to that sort of thing (meaning you can break that objective a few times without losing).

I effin hate Splinter Cell...i do like its gadgets and gizmos...but no...dont like it at all...i've been with Metal Gear since its Nintendo days....and it only gets better everytime. You have a story which i love to go thru for its realism, and has made me screw up in history class for believin their story (now tahts realistic). Totally kickass and the past two games learned how to really hook ya in and get in to ya. I remember from Sons of Liberty, in the end when ur nude the Captain (or whatever his rank was, haven't played in a while) started sayin to turn off ur playstation...i effin pissed myself...thought it was really talkin to me...lol...MGS all the way!!
