Product Review
Metal Gear Solid is one of the most successful, and maybe one of the best, PlayStation games ever. These virtual reality missions expand on the training of the special forces unit your character in MGS came from.
You, as the Virtual Reality embodiment of Solid Snake of MGS fame, can go through specific training for each of the weapons in MGS, combat simulators, and even a photo shoot. That's right, while you're working through the VR missions (most of which are mini-puzzles), your reward is that you get closer and closer to the game's female characters in a photo session. You can also unlock extra missions, eventually becoming able to play as a ninja.
The best part, though, is working through the higher level training missions, where the skills you thought you perfected in MGS are really put to the test. With 300 missions packed into this game, you better start training now. --John Cocking
Pros:
- Short levels mean you can play during your lunch hour
- More Metal Gear Solid action
- Combat training with plastic explosives
- Hierarchical progression of levels can bore expert players
- Mostly valuable as an add-on to Metal Gear Solid
