LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, BOYS AND JADSAHSJHA
Okay, calm down, you are only reviewing a game... One of the most awesome, in depth going in-game story's of a game!
Tears of joy! OH god, oh god... Okay, I'm calm...
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages, the freaks and geeks, trolls and derps are like.... WECLOME! My name is protoman, and yes, I know I am quoting Mulletmike there, thank you very much, eh?
Today, I am going to cover (OH MY GOD!) Metal Gear Solid on the playstation one! So grab some popcorn, put on your best David hayter voice, and let us....
*David voice on*
Commence operation infiltrate Shadow Moses!
(So cool)
Let me start out with the graphics. Sure, they look very blocky, they are pretty hooky, but this is all we had back then. This was all we had. And it was awesome! These graphics were as close to realistic as we had, in fact...
I think metal gear came closest to being the most realistic looking for it's time. For it's time! And I had so much nostalgia having to pick this thing up again! I looked at it, and-
Sorry, I am rambling to much, the games overall look is just.....
HALLELUJA!!!!!!!!!!
*HAYTER VOICE MODE ON*
Moving ON!
*HAYTER VOICE OFF*
Now to the sound.
This is just as awesome as the game itself. The music fits so well! It fits too good! IT IS AWESOME! OH MY GOD! WHAT IS THIS SUDDEN EARGASM I'M HAVING!???!??
Calm down...
I keep telling myself to calm down. WE ALL KNOW IT WILL NEVER WORK!!!! This music is awesome, and to hear that... That theme... when you are surrounded... AWESOME!!! I... I am crying... AGAIN!
Now comes the addictiveness. have you ever looked at a game, and think to yourself "This is the game that made me fall in love with the gaming industry"? If not, then pick this game up, like, right now! It's the omega billionific (That isn't a word), megatrific (Not a word either) Super mega cadingo (That isn't a word either, but you know what I mean!)!
You are going to want to play it over and over again, trying to infiltrate this base on a different way! MGSV said that it was the first to do it, but there are multiple ways to complete this game either.
Which is awesome.
That is really great. ahhhh.... I love this game so much.
Now, here we are.
The Story. Oh God, this is a true Kojima story. Do you know what a kojima story is? If not, It is an awesome story of conspiracy theories, nuclear deterrence on a high level scale, terrorists having the government by the small testicles, and military groups driven by anger and hatred. Or simply NANOMACHINES. That is a simple Kojima story, if it wasn't for the failure that was mgs4, I could have called this a perfect franchise.
Our characters are:
Solid Snake (OH MY GOD!)
Sniper Wolf, and for some reason she is unharmed after, like, eight bullets to the face... what?!
Meryl, butt wiggle wiggle! What she keeps doing that.
Vulcan raven (Listen to your heart, you will understand!)
Psycho mantis, and he is like: "I want to break the fourth wall! Wait, Crash bandicoot?! SERIOUSLY?!? you play that!!?"
Big Boss (ONLY MENTIONED)
And....
The most arrogant sonuvacrap... The British douche.... The bloody sassy man.....
LIQUID SNAKE!!!
He's going to wine about his genes until you like it!
oh, and metal gear, I guess....
Here is the story:
"Snake, the terrorists kidnapped some dudes and are going to plan a nuclear strike. GET IN THERE!" and so the terrorists happened...
Guys, I simply cannot go into difficulty, and depth. There is just too much to find in this game, and this game is very flippin' hard. However, this game is definitely worth a buy, and if you want one of the greatest sneaking action games, this, my fellow reader, this very embodiment of pure awesomeness that is a game, is for you. Some may argue that Splinter cell is better, but believe me.
The metal gear franchise is the mother of the splinter cell franchise, and the mother of sneaking gaming itself. Pick it up if you can. I simply can't praise this game enough for how awesome it is, especially for a game of the year 2000. I hope you enjoyed this review.
This is Protoman.
Signing off.
