A great game
This game is excellent. You don't get hooked straight away like on the final fantasy games, which in my opinion are the greatest games ever made and the most addictive. The further you go into the game the more the storyline unfolds with many twists and turns and the more you get hooked. I was on... Read full review »
Cause of Death: Blown up by C4 on back while taking a leak!
Wow! I've heard good things about this game but I never thought it would make me stop playing all my other games! I just looked through all my games and didn't know what to play, so then I took one of my brother's games, which happened to be MGS! I already knew it was cool, but how cool, no way!...

Snake, Solid Snake
This game can be fun, but it can also be boring. It's like a coin flip. If you love movies then you'll cherish this game as if it were the bible. But if you don't watch too many movies, or like games that are impossibly hard and/or long, then you'll avoid it like the plaque. It all comes down to... Read full review »
Believe the hype...this is one great game
The year is 1998. Everybody I know that owns a PlayStation is "oohing" and "ahhing" over a game called Metal Gear Solid. I can hear them at work, exchanging tips and strategies. They tell stories about characters with weird names like Vulcan Raven and Revolver Ocelot. It's pretty obvious they love... Read full review »
The Greatest Game Ever Made
The only thing I can say about this game is that to me this is the greatest game ever made. At first I didn't think it was going to be all that great. The name threw me off a bit. Once I played it I was hooked. When you start to play you do not start out with any weapons. the only thing you can... Read full review »
Formula: Tactical Espionage Action = Fun!
Metal Gear Solid will go down in the annals of video game history as one of the best games ever made for the PlayStation console and, quite possibly, may be one of the best games ever made. Yes, that's a strong statement, but it is true, and gamers who have played Metal Gear Solid know that it's... Read full review »
Metal Gear is back. Business has picked up.
I've never played Metal Gear. Actually, I've played it, but I found it extremely difficult. In fact, I haven't finished it. Even considering ALL that, when I heard this game was on sale, I wanted it for Christmas. My brother, on the other hand, who is a Metal Gear fanatic, wanted it immediatley... Read full review »
Metal Gear Solid:The Best Action/ Adventure Game!!
When I had first saw commercials about Metal Gear Solid, my first opinion about it was "Who would want a game like this"? To me it didn't seem any fun at all! Well, at this time I didn't have a playstation, Then my younger cousin had gotten this game for Christmas and I was like "I am not going to... Read full review »

MGS RULES!
How often do you get to use stealth and sneak up on guards?How often do you get to snap a sleeping guards neck? Well,in Metal Gear Solid, you do it all!

Metal Gear Solid
You are Solid Snake, a superspy who's half James Bond, half Snake Plissken, and you are mean. Your mission isn't terribly new (infiltrate a terrorist base and blow everything up), but the gameplay is: your numerous enemies are watching for you, and you are encouraged to sneak rather than simply charge in. Every level brings new challenges. You fight snipers, invisible ninjas, psychic warriors, and even an M-1 tank! As the father of the modern spy game genre, this game is an instant classic. Your allies and superiors speak to you via a cool, implanted radio, monitoring your progress, offering tips--but failing to give you the full story. The combination of a mysterious and engaging plot and high in-game tension makes this a thrilling ride. Campy humor also abounds as you rescue beautiful women, verbally spar with your allies, and blow up enemies in the bathroom. A user-friendly control interface allows for sniping, hiding, crawling, and running, and the graphics leave nothing to be desired. If you like espionage, spy movies, or just want to own and play a piece of gaming history, then this is a must have. Metal Gear Solid is one of the all-time greats. Game tip: Secretly attach plastic explosives behind an enemy, sneak out of the room, and see what happens. --Allen Stewart Pros: Story well-integrated into gameplay Stealth favored over brute force Challenging puzzles Cons: Puzzles can be frustrating Torture scene too intense for younger gamers
