Metal Gear Solid

THE GOOD:
Great game, Amazing plot, Semi-realistic weapons, Challanging boss fights, Good character development, Smooth continuation from previous MG games, Great in-game music, cutscenes, more emphasis on stealth, great voice-acting

THE BAD:
Mediocre graphics, Quite a few levels to be repeated, Some cut-scenes too long, too predictable

SUMMARY:
This is a grat game. Hideo Kojima has outdone himself. The game perfectly picks-up from the already popular metal gear series. The graphics are kind of average, for example, all characters have a fixed face "plate". The game is long enough but could have used a couple of more levels. Hideo has tried to substitue extra levels by making you go through a few levels back-and-forth. The cutscenes are a big highlight of the game and Hideo has taken pains to make a convincing storyline. By predictable cut-scenes, I mean that there is a really long cut-scene every time a character dies. You feel a kind of relief when they finally die. Without giving away too many plot twists, I can safely say that the amount of room left for a sequel is amazing.
