Developed by Konami Computer Entertainment Japan and directed by Hideo Kojima, Metal Gear Solid is a stealth-action game released in 1998 for PlayStation, with later availability on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable. A follow-up to the MSX2 titles Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake, it continues the series in three dimensions while retaining a top-down perspective. Players control operative Solid Snake as he moves through enemy-held environments, relying on evasion rather than direct confrontation. Triggering detection sets off alarms that draw armed forces to Snake's position, raising the stakes considerably. Extensive radio conversations with allies and in-engine cinematic cutscenes drive the narrative forward and flesh out the game's world. Metal Gear Solid is widely considered one of the most significant games ever made, credited with broadening the stealth genre's mainstream appeal and establishing cinematic presentation as a standard in the medium.
Metal Gear Solid takes place in an alternate history in which the Cold War continued into the 1990s, ending at some point near the end of the 20th century. Coming out of retirement, special agent Solid Snake is called back into the line of duty to take on rogue members of Foxhound, a crack government anti-terrorist squad threatening to launch nuclear-weapons on the White House unless they receive their $1 billion ransom. With only 24 hours to sabotage Foxhound's threat, Snake must infiltrate enemy lines, rescue the two hostages and thwart the terrorists' plans. The demons of his past will challenge him and his will as a soldier shall be tested, as Snake fights to save the world from nuclear devastation.
