This is literally the worst thing anyone can do, at least if the story between them is connected. I can understand playing games out of order if they don't have strong story connections, but if they do, nope.

I usually try to play games in order if the stories are connected. If not, then it really doesn't matter.
Here's a wrinkle to the question. What about a series where you haven't played the games yet, and the next sequel is actually a prequel. Depression Moon's post reminded me of that.
Sure he played Metal Gear 3 first, but canonically he played the first one in the story.Quote:

Playing MEI before MEII is sacrilege. That game needs to play in order otherwise your choices in MEI are just arbitrary.
