I only started last night, but I'm thoroughly enjoying the game this time around. I just finished the ninja fight and freed Otakon. That's about the furthest I ever made it in the past. I'm looking forward to what's in store.

Got a bit of a late start on this game, only just firing it up Friday evening, but I've already put enough time into it to have completed the first checkpoint and now just beat Psycho Mantis. I know when I first played this game about 15 years ago, I got shortly beyond this point, and was out in the cold, contending with wolves, if memory serves. I look forward to actually passing that mark and seeing the rest of the game. I'm having fun so far overall, though I forgot that there's a LOT of trial and error involved. I have died a whole ton of times, and don't think I'd ever want to consider a speed run of this game. The boss fights are cool, but get kind of frustrating fast because the combat is a bit weak compared to the stealth elements. I must have played the Cyborg Ninja fight a dozen and a half times before I finally got my rhythm down and beat him. Psycho Mantis only took about 4-5 tries, however.

So he is at the final boss Rex.
I'm stopped at Sniper Wolf. I will return to this game Friday evening, but for right now I will be playing more Phantom Pain.

Quick question.
Are the spinoff games worth playing at all? Acid? Revengence? Isn't there one starring Raiden. I'm not super familiar with the series as a whole.

Revengeance was awesome but it is a totally different game. It starts Raiden. It's an action slice & dice like Bayonetta.
Acid is a CCG game. Haven't played it yet but a lot of people like it.

Revengence sounds fun.
Anways, I just plugged in Disc 2 for MGS, so I'm making good progress.

I forgot there's also Metal Gear Solid: VR Missions. It's a standalone game of VR missions like the ones in MGS but of course there are many more of them and they are a lot more creatively designed. It's cool if you absolutely want more MGS on the PS1.

One of the coolest parts in the game, or in any game actually.
Some of my squad might not have gotten there yet, so please don't spoil it.

I am in the prison cell now, and have had 2 rounds of torture. My arm couldn't take a 3rd round last night (assuming there is one), so I left it there. Now that I've played through more of the game, it seems to me that it wasn't at the area with the wolves that I stopped, but somewhere around that prison cell, possibly prior to torture, or just shortly after Ocaton's visit. It's been 15 years, so my memory's a bit fuzzy on the details, but I think I may have reached the spot in the game where I gave up last time, so I'm looking forward to seeing what's beyond this point

Maybe I do - Otacon brought me the ketchup bottle and rations, I just don't remember after all these years what I need to do to escape

Cool, finally I get to use my expertise on this game to help someone!
The two best ways I know of to get out (though I'm sure there are more):
Spoiler
(hover to show)
Both methods involve waiting until the guard has his "stomach issues" and visits the restroom.
The first way is to just hide under the bed until he comes back and he'll think you're gone, but that's not fun and also puts you at a positional disadvantage because you have to crawl out from under the bed before knocking him out.
It's much more fun to wait until he's gone, lay still in the middle of the floor, and "use" the ketchup. You can probably guess what happens, but I'll leave the rest to you.
