Line 3:
* [[Awesome Music]]: [[Metal Gear/Awesome Music|See here.]]
* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: Big Boss's sarcastic response to Solid Snake's use of a cardboard box in the first game becomes especially ironic when it becomes apparent that Big Boss was the one who developed the technique as Naked Snake.
* [[Inferred Holocaust]]: Although Solid Snake does manage to destroy Metal Gear and escape Outer Heaven before the base self-destructs, the ending shows what is unmistakably a mushroom cloud from an atomic blast in the distance, and the KNK radio station also mentioned an earthquake occuring before sunrise. In ''Metal Gear 2'', it is revealed that said mushroom cloud is actually the result of NATO's air raid that devastated both sides of the conflict, of which Snake was partially responsible for causing. It also falls into [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]].
* [[It's Easy, So It Sucks]]: The NES version removes the high alert phases from the MSX2 (which happens when two exclamation marks appears above an enemy's head instead of just one), making it easier to escape after being discovered by simply moving to the next screen. The Super Computer boss is also a lot easier than the Metal Gear, since the player aren't required to memorize where to place their plastic explosives.
** On the other hand, there's no [[Mercy Invincibility]] in the NES version, and since many of the early areas (especially the Jungle and the first floor of Building No. 1) consists of really tight corridors, it's easy to be stampeded to death by watchdogs and enemy soldiers. Likewise, the NES version also feature instant shortcuts to later areas, so novices are bound to get lost if they take a transport truck without knowing where it leads.
