Many gamers know the words "Metal Gear" to be associated of the truly innovative NES title released some ten or eleven years ago. Truly revolutionary for that time, it was the only action game that didn't allow you to just go running around looking for fights; otherwise the same thing that would happen in real life to a one-man army would happen to you in the game. It made you think. Few games do this, and that's what makes this game, no, this franchise, so great.
