Metal Gear Solid is one of the best classics I've ever played. It's been 7 years since I've played this game and when I played it yesterday my wife was begging me to come off the PC. When I first saw this game 7 years ago I realized this game was an instant classic. Well enough about my life and more about the sneaky Solid Snake (which is the main character of the game).
Solid Snake is an expert in covert ops, infiltration, armed and unarmed combat. Just the person you don't want to be messing with. The controls that you use in this game are just absolutely awesome. Running, Walking, Jumping, Crouching, Hiding in boxes. And yes of course shooting. MGS, unlike most action games does not revolve around shooting. It's more about stealth and how well you can hide the dead body. When Konami had made this game about 7 years ago it featured amazing graphics for that time. It also featured very accurate and realistic sounds such as knocking on walls to get guards attention. Every MGS game that has been made till now couldn't have been created without the first. The Story in this game was quite interesting and this game was equipped with alternate endings and twists in the plot. MGS is also accompanied with excellent camera angles that add to the intensity of the game. There are also bonus features which allow you to use your powers to a whole new level. Yes now you’re probably thinking what can't you do in this game?
The Story which is quite interesting revolves around a group of terrorists who have stolen a government weapon called Metal Gear. Around the game, you will find interesting pick-ups like ammunition, health packs and- yes even new weapons. In MGS there are many ways you can kill your enemy, that part of the game play ensures that the game does not become repetitive.
My final words are “try this game”. It features a unique cast of characters, exciting story line that will leave you at the edge of your seats, demonic weapons that create havoc, the chance to play a bionic ninja dude that could run circles around you while killing you in 20 different ways. My vote for this game is 9.5/10
