A bit of advice Benetto- Pick up the trilogy pack, MGS, MGS2, and MGS3 for $30.
MGS3 is still the best of the past-gen trilogy, and still has good enough graphics and cool gameplay options that you can appreciate in current-gen.
I'm not sure how the save feature in the original MGS would work on a PS3, being that it is a PS1 game...
However, if fast, hyper gameplay is your niche, you may (edit-) NOT like the games, and not fully appreciate Solid Snake. But I think to fully grasp the scope of the games, you need to play the first ones.
If you don't want to play the original MGS because it is so dated (I couldn't even blame you!), Ninetendo re-made it for the Gamecube, MGS-The Twin Snakes. It was a fine remake. If you know anyone with a GC, you can check it out. Used GCs are like $20.
Again, to appreciate the full scope of a gaming epic offered like Solid Snake's (one of the best gaming characters EVER IMO), check out the other titles.
