PC version proves its mettle

Date of Review:  Dec 16, 2000
Review: Metal Gear Solid is easily one of the best action adventures we have seen on the PlayStation, and now that the game has come to the PC it has even managed to improve a little bit.

It is time to rejoice and indulge in a truly adrenalin...

Tactical Espionage Fun

Date of Review:  Oct 25, 2000
Review: About two years back, a game was released for the Playstation that instantly became my favorite game. This game was of course Metal Gear Solid. I fell in love with this game. I played it day and night until I beat it. It took me a week or so to beat...

I'm sure I'm missing something..

Date of Review:  Feb 17, 2002
The Bottom Line: The gameplay and graphics are weak and I am amazed at the high ratings it gets.
Review: Am I the only person who thinks Metal Gear Solid is very overrated? It gets so much praise and everyone says it's wonderful so it's gotta be good right? Well.. I didn't think so and I really did try to like it!

This game may have been good...

So Glad To See This On PC!

Date of Review:  Oct 11, 2000
Review: When I first played Metal Gear Solid when it was on PSX I was very impressed and immediately fell in love with it. Top be honest it's the only PSX game I would purchase and the ONLY reason I held onto my Playstation after I got my PC.

Metal Gear Solid is a Rock Solid Title

Date of Review:  Jun 28, 2002
The Bottom Line: Get this game. It's one of THE best games out there for Windows, even still.
Review: By now, anyone who's anyone has heard of Metal Gear. This game spawned the entire genre of spy games, and Konami continued the legacy with the excellent Metal Gear Solid for the Playstation. Sharing both it's flaws and strengths, the Windows version...

A great game for the pc

Date of Review:  Sep 27, 2000
Review: I played this game on my Playstation and beat it about five times. I knew i had to buy it for the pc just because of the graphical enhances that the pc has over the Playstation. I'm glad I bought this because it's every bit as good as the...

MGS Rulz!

Date of Review:  Apr 10, 2001
The Bottom Line: A superb game that is worth every cent paid for it.
Review: This is such a fun game. It's hard, but fun. You have a choose of 2 modes for it: The Game and The Training Mode. Don't quote me on these mode's names, though.

The Game mode is just going around, doing missions. This is hard, but fun. You...

Metal gear NOT SO solid

Date of Review:  Feb 25, 2003
The Bottom Line: When this game was first out it was a classic. Nowadays its old and wore. Stay away from it.
Review: Well this game to put it bluntly in my view is a bit of a disapointment.

I bought it for the pc about a month or so ago after I had sold my playstation and metal gear solid game and I wish I hadnt bothered to buy it again.

Snake is Back and Better Than Ever

Date of Review:  Mar 5, 2001
The Bottom Line: One of the best first person shooters ever. It combines stealth and hardcore action.
Review: Snake is back and better than ever in this third installment of the Metal Gear series. The first Metal Gear came out in 1987. The sequel, Solid Snake was released in the early 90s and the latest Metal Gear was released a few years ago for the...

People Who Took Effort in Making a PC Port of a Game

Date of Review:  Jan 1, 2001
Review: Most PC ports of console games, well ummmm...suck (excluding the games that come out with multiple systems when they release). Come on Final Fantasy VIII, good graphics, but they lowered the quality in the backgrounds, so it looked a little funny...
