For instance, in a level where you're supposed to plant plastic explosives, you may have to find the right spot by tapping on the walls--a hollow sounding tap would indicate that the wall is thin and that a charge of plastic explosives would be effective there. Even less obvious clues--such as dried paint chips which expose a newly painted wall as an actual hallway en trance--guarantee that you'll have to massage the old bean a bit and he prepared for some clever thinking.
Other bonuses which will guarantee the game's success include a thorough training level during which you're timed and graded on certain mission skills, such as evading two patrol guards at once, crawling into air vents, or avoiding searchlights and full Dolby Surround sound, which adds to the game's realism.
However, this is all just window-dressing for a game that, at its core, is a very complex and immensely enjoyable adventure. This definitely ain't your daddy's Metal Gear--gamers who remember with fondness the hours of intense excitement that the two original NES games see sidebar " Back to the Future " brought into their homes are going to find themselves challenged even further.
Everyone else will just be thankful that they bought a PlayStation. Who'd have thought Metal Gear Solid would translate so well to an 8-Bit handheld? It's truly impressive how well Konami has ported the complex play mechanics of the PlayStation game to the Game Boy Color despite its fewer buttons.
Sometimes that means pressing two or three buttons in combination to switch weapons and items, or to use your Codec. Once you play a bit, though, the control layout feels logical and becomes second nature. Outside of the obvious hit in the graphics and sound department, this cartridge would make a great game on any system. It's the most intriguing story in any Game Boy game to date, and it's delivered well through a series of cinemas featuring some beautiful hand-drawn art.
Unfortunately, the cinemas in this game are just as plentiful and long-winded as their PlayStation counterparts. Even so, it's nice to see that Nintendo didn't force Konami to dumb down the story and allowed them to use a couple of mild expletives and some other PG dialogue in order to keep the Metal Gear feel intact. Metal Gear Solid on the MGS features all the tactical-espionage action that made the PlayStation version a hit, plus a totally original story that's sure to please.
Game Boy games just don't get any better. Finally, a big-league franchise on the Game Boy that's actually faithful to its namesake. It's amazing how much Metal Gear Konami was able to stuff into this little cart. You have the stealth elements, the weapons, the items, the codec, distracting guards--there's even a VS. The pinnacle of GBC graphics, animation, and sound, with a great story that wasn't dumbed down to a 5th grade level no offense, 5th graders.
This joins Zelda and Pokemon as one of my favorite handheld games ever. Gamers whose first experience with Metal Gear was on the PlayStation might be taken aback at first by the old-school look of this portable version. But make no mistake, it's got the same kind of game-play that made the PS version a hit and the guards are less intelligent than ever.
Gone are the 3D cinema screens, but it just makes the gameplay stand out even more. Deluxe are making the GBC the place for updates to classic games.
And I say, keep 'em coming. The Game Boy Color seems an unlikely candidate for a sequel to one of the biggest games in PlayStation history. Nonetheless, the latest game in the Metal Gear saga has found a home on everyone's favorite 8-Bit portable game machine, and--surprise--it's actually good.
However, thanks to the American government, the Metal Gear menace is not a thing of the past. Research has continued on the bipedal nuclear tank, and when the plane carrying Metal Gear is hijacked, the government needs Snake to return to Outer Heaven once again to stop the terrorists and save the world.
Sound familiar? What's odd about the Game Boy version of Metal Gear Solid is that it seems to take place at the same time as the PlayStation game, even though each one has its own completely different setting and story.
The whole thing is presented as though the stories are taking place parallel to each other. From the need to avoid detection and conflict to the seemingly endless collection of cinemas, it's all been shrunk down to Game Boy proportions with relative success. Players can also go back to stages after they complete them in the main game and attempt to get a better rating based on their completion time, rations used and kills. It may still be awhile until we see the true sequel to MGS for the PlayStation2, but this gem of a Game Boy game should at least make the wait a bit more bearable.
Hopefully, the most burning question about the qame can then be answered: Hill Metal Gear live up to the hype or will it be crushed by it? In fact, you start the game armed with only a pack of cigarettes and binoculars in your inventory--but you can collect more weapons along the Way.
In Metal Gear Solid, you play as Snake, a member of a special-forces team sent to diffuse a hostage situation. The videotape of Metal Gear Solid wowed audiences at last year's E3, and was one of the most talked-about games of the show. Hopefully, gamers will be able to play this very promising action title from Konami at Eand if MGS plays as good as it looks, it could be one of the best PlayStation games ever. Metal Gear Solid uses multiple camera angles and an advanced enemy A.
Snake is loaded with a plethora of moves, including the ability to crawl, swim, and even fistfight using multi-hit com-bos--and that's just for starters. Imagine what you can do wtren'you find weapons Back in , however, the idea of cinematic gaming experiences still brought to mind live-action footage with minimal amounts of interactivity crudely attached.
At least, we certainly seemed to think so, since Konami's PlayStation. The way it looked, the situations it depicted, the interactions characters had with one another, the countless little touches and small details for players to find—it all felt larger than life and beyond what we thought could be possible in gaming.
Today, Metal Gear Solid has its share of rough edges beyond its jaggy, sometimes-jittery early-era polygons , most notably in its gameplay. Since the game was designed for the analog-stick-less original PlayStation controller, getting Solid Snake to do exactly what you want takes practice and patience.
Still, the game remains a thoroughly compelling experience. The game features an open world map and gives the player complete freedom on how to tackle missions.
You can either follow the usual stealth approach, or go in guns blazing, although being stealthy is the way the game was intended to be played. Kojima and his team at Konami were able to deliver a new experience surrounding an old franchise.
This game was a breath of fresh air for the Metal Gear franchise. In this game, you are equipped with a handful of different gadgets to use as you progress through the story. Snake now has a mechanical arm that has different uses, you can detach it and rocket punch enemies. There is a wide variety of guns to use, and the game presents you with different possibilities on how to complete a mission, you can even use your good old cardboard box to mess around with enemies. And how much freedom they give the player, to experience the game however they see fit.
The game is set on a certain difficulty setting, and it cannot be changed. That forces you to play the game with patience and make strategic decisions to be able to finish your missions.
This game is perfect for gamers that love stealth-action base games, like the Splinter Cell franchise. There is an online mode included with the game, where you can create a new character, or choose the one you created at the start of the game.
