Probably close to zero. Besides, MGS3 and Peace Walker are more important since they are prequels to MGS5.
Not trying to crush your enthusiasm but if you really want to get into MGS, you need to play them all, starting from MGS1 on PS1. The story spans over a time period of several decades from 1960s to 2010s and the games are very much interconnected.
Not if you just want to understand the backstory well enough to appreciate the new game. I spent an hour or two on the wiki and I got the story down well enough to understand the timeline and who most of the major characters are.
And by doing this you'll miss some of the best gaming experiences ever created. :/
Yeah, but if you don't have a PS3 you're unable to experience them anyways
Not to mention the ones on PSP.
Better way would be to watch movie versions of the games on youtube. But you still miss tons though.Yeah, but if you don't have a PS3 you're unable to experience them anyways
But you can actually see the game in motion and you get to know the characters and their personalities at least on some level. That's something that you won't get reading some wiki pages.

Imo, PS3 is worth owning just because of The Legacy Collection. It has some of the best games ever made.
Yup. I actually just sold my PS4 because it was only gathering dust with nothing to play on it. But my PS3 I still use for exclusives games (like MGS) and for watching Bluray movies. And you can probably find used Superslim models with some warranty left for a decent price.
Kojima Station. Don't remember which episode. IIRC he said he was amused by it but Quiet is definitely a woman.
With a PC for MGS and MGS2 and a PS Vita for MGS3 and MGS Peace Walker you can play almost all the games of the saga, except for MGS4 and MGS Portable Ops (yeah Kojima says it's non canon, but I try not to listen to him, I suspect he claims that only because he was the producer and not the director, whooops)
Yeah, I like Big Boss story more than Solid Snake's, and 3rd is one of the best games I've ever played.
