In my personal opinion chronological order is best, i appreciate the ending of MGS4 far more after playing the "Big Boss Saga".

Most retcons aren't that big or game breaking (in my opinion), since I can "explain" or should I say pretend, that some of them were just misinformation or honest mistakes, for example the "Big Boss was in his 50s" Could be explained by Liquis just making a mistake, or being misinformed like the guy above said.

Similar with the "big boss lost his eye in the 80s" I can simply pretend the mixed up the dates, I once said that World War II ended in 1965, and didn't notice I had said the date wrong until someone pointed out,

And I just pretend Venom Snake and Big Boss are the same person... and pretend mission 46 never happened...

the only retcon i can't "explain" is Miller's name constantly changing, how he is introduced as Kazuhira, then its Kazuhira Miller and him saying Kaz is his nickname and KAzuhira was the name his mother gave him, and then he is called Benedict Millar and "Kazhuhira" is just a nickname, but even then I could start grasping at straws and come up with something like "he changed his name to avoid being recognized as the second in command of MSF" or somethin like that.
