Metal Gear Solid

The Good
This game is one of my all time favourites. The first time I played it was when I rented it. I actually finished it a week later and bought it anyway. My friend was so impressed with it: he went and bought a PS, just so he could get Metal Gear Solid.

The thing that really won me over with this game wasn't the graphics, game play or sound. It was the story, the voice acting and the characters. The overall game is really well done, but I was drawn in by those particular elements. The director, actors and writers did a really great job.

The way that the characters speak to each other sounds very believable. The story was just really easy to get into. Very entertaining. MGS has such a flow to it, that it's very difficult to take a break from it. You just want to see what happens next.

After I completed it, I got to thinking: The newer generation of video games can be as good as any classic movie or book. It has become more like an art-form.

MGS is a good example of this: With memorable characters and an interesting story.

The Bad
I liked everything about it.

The Bottom Line
Awesome!
