So MGSIV or the HD Collection? It seems most of you think the HD collection?

I am not looking to spend that much money, as I already have quite a few games I have not finished.
Dragon Age, GTAV, FC4, The Evil WIthin, Pier Solar, AC:U (which I dont care for) hopefully all these will hold me until Bloodborne :D

You obviously don't want to get MGS4 first. It's the end of the Solid Snake storyline.

Download MGS1 off PSN, play that, then get the MGS Collection which has MGS2 (playing MGS1 is crucial for 2 IMO), MGS3, and Peace Walker. Get 4 and play that after 2 and 3 but before Peace Walker since it came first.

Would it be possible to properly comprehend the story of 1 from reading about it? Everytime I try to play a PS1/PS2 game these days I get a killer headache.
