Last time, we took a look at the first half of the Metal Gear timeline: namely, the games featuring Big Boss as the main hero. While it was certainly a lot to go over, it's only the first half of the saga - this time, we're looking at the franchise's main hero, Solid Snake!
There's quite a bit of material to cover: Solid Snake was the hero of the franchise from the Japanese MSX original all the way through Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. It's also where the series' story gets a bit more convoluted, so if you need a refresher, check out the first half of the timeline first.
And, as always, we're covering the entire stories of each game - basically, if you haven't already played through them, SPOILERS AHEAD!
So, without any further adieu, here's the second half of the Metal Gear timeline:
