[edit] Metal Gear 3
Taken from Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater
Villain - Colonel Volgin with the Shagohod
Set in 1964 at the height of the Cold War, this game follows Naked Snake- the man who will become Big Boss- into the Soviet jungle to recover a scientist who has been working on a new type of tank that can fire a nuclear missile. It is heavily influenced by the style of James Bond movies, from the plentiful love interests to the classic visual style of the opening credits.
The Plot of Snake Eater provides closure to the series (some trailers called it the last in the "Metal Gear Solid trilogy"), resolving many hanging plot points raised in earlier titles. For example, the role of The Patriots in the story arc, raised in MGS2, and the transformation of Big Boss from hero to renegade with the creation of Outer Heaven, which underpins the first two titles, are explained. There are several references to actual events in the series' past, as well as a very detailed background on Ocelot's role in the whole 'Solid' series.

Villain - Gene
Six years after Snake Eater OPS features Naked Snake (now known as Big Boss) now that he has split away from the FOX unit. Para-Medic informs Big Boss that his former FOX unit comrades have started a revolt, and that Big Boss himself is now being charged with treason. Snake will have to fight his way through a number of heavily guarded compounds and take out a number of renegade FOX agents and recruit a group of soldiers to assist him which will then form a precursor to the FOXHOUND organization.
[edit] Metal Gear
Taken fom Metal Gear
Villain - Outer Heaven
In 1995, 200km north of Galzburg, the South African nation of Outer Heaven is held by a mysterious mercenary. Word had gotten out to the western world that deep within the Outer Heaven stronghold, that a weapon of mass destruction was being constructed. Government officials orders the high-tech Special Forces squad, Foxhound, to infiltrate the fortress, access the situation and neutralize the threat. Known as operation "Intrude N313," Foxhound operative Gray Fox infiltrated the Outer Heaven stronghold. Days later, contact with Gray Fox is lost. His last transmission reads "METAL GEAR..."
Another operative, the rookie Solid Snake, is ordered by Fox Hound leader Big Boss to find the missing operative Gray Fox, and carry out his mission. Upon infiltrating Outer Heaven, Snake discovers the advanced nuclear weapon system Metal Gear, and learns from its imprisoned creator how to destroy it. Snake succeeds after a series of gruelling battles with the mercenary forces which defend Outer Heaven and the sophisticated electronic defenses surrounding Metal Gear itself. It is then that he meets the man who rules Outer Heaven; Foxhound's own commander, Big Boss. Big Boss activates the destruct sequence for the fortress, but is defeated by Snake, who escapes as the base crumbles behind him.
[edit] Metal Gear 2
Taken from Metal Gear 2
Villain - Big Boss with Metal Gear
By 1999, the Cold War had thawed, and nuclear disarmament by the major world powers promised a bright beginning to the 21st century. Despite this, all was not well in the world. A series of shocks to the oil market spurred the development of new high-tech energy sources, including Fusion power. However, most vehicles still relied on oil for power. A breakthrough solution is presented in Prague by Czech scientist, Dr. Kio Marv; a type of algae which can produce petroleum-grade hydrocarbons. However, between there and the United States, he is kidnapped by forces belonging to the heavily fortified nation of "Zanzibar Land".
Solid Snake is sent in to rescue the scientist; he discovers that the nation's leaders plan to hold the world hostage through both the oil supply (now tied inexorably to Dr. Marv's research) and nuclear weapons (through a new form of Metal Gear). The man in the seat of power in Zanzibar Land is none other than Big Boss, and his newest lieutenant is Snake's old comrade Gray Fox. While Snake succeeds in destroying Metal Gear and bringing down Big Boss, he finds the blood of his best friend on his hands. Upon completing the mission, Snake leaves the military and dissapears into Alaska.
[edit] Metal Gear Solid
Taken from Metal Gear Solid
Villain - Genome Soldiers led by Liquid Snake
In the early 21st century Solid Snake is called out of retirement by his old commanding officer Roy Campbell and given a new mission. Apparently, Next Generation Special Forces Unit FOXHOUND was conducting a training exercise on Shadow Moses Island in Alaska’s Fox Archipelago when the unit suddenly revolted against the U.S. government. Their demands include the remains of the legendary mercenary Big Boss and they threaten a nuclear strike within 24 hours if their demands are not met. Snake is given two objectives first, to infiltrate the nuclear weapons disposal facility and rescue DARPA Chief Donald Anderson and the President of ArmsTech, Kenneth Baker. Secondly, he must stop the terrorists from launching a nuclear strike.
Solid Snake takes out most of FOXHOUND in battle, while the Decoy Octopus, Baker and Liquid Snake die from a specially engineered assassination virus called FOXDIE (Solid Snake was the carrier of the virus). Snake is also told about his origins as a Genetic son of Big Boss and Genetic Twin of Liquid Snake. Revolver Ocelot, Solid Snake and Dr Hal Emmerich are the only recorded survivors of the incident.
[edit] Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty
Taken fom Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty
Villain - Solidus Snake
Metal Gear Solid 2 opens on the George Washington Bridge in New York City. Solid Snake is investigating the development of a new Metal Gear being transported for testing by the Marines following the proliferation of REX's blueprints. The mission rapidly turns sour, the tanker is sunk by Shalashaska and Snake apparently is killed.
The player finds himself in control of Raiden, operating under Fox-Hound to rescue the President and other hostages from the "Big Shell" facility off the shorline of New York. It is revealed that the Big Shell is merely a cover for "Arsenal Gear", a mobile underwater fortress defended by a fleet of amphibious mecha (production variants of Metal Gear RAY), which is being secretly built as part of a conspiracy by the Illuminati-like "Patriots". It is largely unarmed. Instead, it carries a supercomputer called "GW" which is designed to monitor, block, and tamper with Internet communications, in order to further the totalitarian agenda of the "Patriots".
[edit] Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
Taken from Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
Villain - Outer Heaven led by Liquid Ocelot
Set in the year 2015, six years after the Manhattan incident (the events of Metal Gear Solid 2), MGS4 portrays a world where the restriction of military intervention on foreign soil has eased, leading to demands on mercenaries to fight proxy battles for business purposes, fueling the need for private military contractors (PMCs) and automated weapons.
However, the five largest PMCs are revealed to be owned by a single mother company, Outer Heaven (the name of Big Boss' mercenary company and fortified nation in the original Metal Gear), operated by Liquid Ocelot. It is revealed that Outer Heaven has amassed a military equivalent in manpower to the United States' own, and is now preparing to launch an armed insurrection. With the world once again in crisis, Solid Snake is deployed to the Middle East.

[edit] Gene
The charismatic commander of the FOX unit and a former Russian Spetsnaz operative. Known under the codename of Viper, he became the unit's central member after Snake left. He is the one leading the FOX unit's revolt and is hoping to turn the San Hieronymo base into a new nation, run for and by soldiers. He is the product of the Successor Project, the goal of which was to create the "ultimate battlefield commander"; The Boss was the model for the experiment. His reflexes are faster even than Null's, and his voice was given a special manipulative power. This is shown during Gene's speeches where his voice apparently has an altering affect on soldiers and those loyal to him. The most prominent example of this is his voice's affect on Elisa, who changes to her split personality Ursula upon hearing it. Snake kills him at the end of the game. Gene can be recruited by having recruited over 200 soldiers in the past (not all at once though) and then starting from a completed file.
[edit] The Genome Project
The Genome Project was created to produce Super Soilders from the cells of "The Greatest Warrior on the Planet" (Big Boss). The result was The Genome Army, FOX-HOUND, Dead Cell and quite possibly others as well.
[edit] Genome Soldiers
The Genome Soldiers are the main enemy characters in the original Metal Gear Solid. In the storyline, they are present members of Next Generation Special Forces (aka Space SEALs) and reserve members of FOXHOUND that have undergone virtual reality training and gene therapy experiments, but have little or no actual field experience.
In the original game, there were four different types of Genome Soldiers (artic warfare, light infantry, NBC warfare and heavily armed troops), each progressively stronger than the last. The weakest type of Genome Soldier (Light Infantry) takes only two gunshots to be eliminated, whereas the strongest (Heavily Armed Troops) takes up to four shots. The other two can resist up to three shots. In the remake (Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes), some of the heavily armed troops are equipped with shotguns and riot shield during the game's alert phase.
The Next Generation Special Forces were originally a counter-terrorist unit comprised of former members of biochem units, technical escort teams and the Nuclear Emergency Search Team. Their original purpose was to neutralize NBC threats.
After the death of Big Boss and the downfall of Zanzibar Land, members of Big Boss' mercenary dispatching company, (Outer Heaven), were integrated into the unit after the US Government purchased their contracts. The team subsequently merged with Force XXI and were given VR training. Members of the team were also secretly enhanced with Big Boss' "soldier" genes, giving them augmented senses and reflexes.
In 2005, the Genome Soldiers took part in what was scheduled to have been a routine training exercise in Shadow Moses Island. The Genome Soldiers and FOXHOUND (under Liquid Snake's command) staged a revolt on the island, taking over the nuclear facility (where Metal Gear REX was secretly developed) and along with a few hostages. The terrorists (calling themselves the Sons of Big Boss) threatened to launch a nuclear strike if the remains of Big Boss were not delivered to them in less than 24 hours. Almost the entire NGSF unit were subverted to rebellion, with some of the members being brainwashed by Psycho Mantis and others supporting Liquid's cause from their own free will. It was revealed that the Genome Soldiers were suffering from genetic defects as a result of their gene therapy treatments and that Big Boss' remains was the key to their survival.
After the destruction of REX by operative Solid Snake and the death of Liquid, the surviving Genome Soldiers were transferred to the Pease AFB in New Hampshire, where they were imprisoned for treason. It is presumed, but not made explicit that they may have later died from FOXDIE.
