I think that, by this point, we've all come across at least ten or twelve Metal Gear Solid parodies on YouTube that somehow manage to fall completely flat. I had all-but given up hope on ever again laughing at Metal Gear, but here to save us all are some comedic MGS videos that totally deliver.

First, and most importantly, I present to you one of the great artistic minds of our time. You'll never look at the photo album feature in MGS3 the same way again. Part of me does want to wax philosophical and describe this as an interesting form of virtual performance art, but, for now, let's just watch:

Follow me past the break for a pair of manically paced parodies, but I won't be held responsible if you need a day or two to recover before playing a Metal Gear game again.

"Metal Gear Awesome" is a parody that is fairly well-known at this point, but I feel obliged to post it as I've only just come across it. I would pay actual, real, non-invisible monies for a full series of this writing, fast dialogue, and brilliant enemy AI.

This last video... Well, the animation raises the bar far above what we normally expect from this tired medium, and the peerless voice work of Cris Mertens has redefined--
