In many ways I always liked playing the original Playstation since the amount of games that were must-plays to the undiscovered gems always seemed plentiful so you never felt like you didn't buy a machine for at most, 5 or 6 games. Metal Gear Solid was quite a fun and intriguing release and it brought a more cinematic telling into the stories and although short and plotwise it can get into philosophy-speak a bit too often (though at least it's easier to swallow than Sons of Liberty), it was still one of the more unique play experiences found on the console.
