  • Abstract:  Metal Gear Solid has been one of those series that you either really got into or could not stand. Dominating PS1 and PS2 sales charts, the series and its creator have become something of a Playstation icon over the past decade, so it seems fitting that...

  • Fantastic blend of stealth and action. Great dramatic story. Amazing graphics and very well directed in-game cutscenes. Varied and eye-popping environments. Lots of unlockable music and costumes. Great fan service.
  • Cutscenes may be too long for some. Boss fights while fun arent very challenging. Long and confusing sign-up process for multiplayer. We may never be seeing Solid Snake again.

  • The best-looking game on the PS3, Technically sound, Lengthy single player campaign, Impeccable action gaming, Stealth mechanics own
  • Less emphasis on stealth
  • Just as stealth games aren’t for everyone, the relatively sedate pace of cinematic gaming may seem unappealing to many. If you prefer fast-paced action games that keep you on your toes, chances are you’ve not liked the Metal Gear Solid se...
