The official one was never successfully ripped into a playable image.

You can just use any Bleem disc image.

Burn the metal gear solid to a disk, then use a already bleemed game or a bleem boot disk (thats what u call it) then swap the disks when it says 'bleem'

Or you can just use a Bleem image, it's a lot easier.

Thats what i said.
I didn't say bleemed game, I said a bleem disc.  Bleem is a standalone emulator.

The beta disks don't run it very well. Screens all funked up, from what i can recall, very slow. its a novelty, but you wont want to play it for more than 5 minutes tops.

I don't know what games you played that ran almost perfect, everything I tried was pretty much unplayable. I've got the original MGS bleemcast disk, it's pretty cool but requires a dedicated vmu and I've only got 1, so if i wanted to play MGS on my DC i would have to delete all my other save games.
Check ebay, they sell pretty cheap:
