Metal Gear Solid, commonly abbreviated as MGS, is a stealth-based game that was developed by Konami and was first published for the Playstation 1998.
As well as being a reference to the game's protagonist, Solid Snake, the suffix Solid is also used to indicate that this is the first Metal Gear to use completely 3D technology. It is also a reference to the fact that it is the third game in the Metal Gear series (solid = cubed = 3).
Set in 2005, the game sends Solid Snake to infiltrate a nuclear weapons disposal facility in Alaska's Fox Archipelago, recently captured by terrorists from FOXHOUND. Colonel Campbell instructed Snake to rescue two hostages, the DARPA Chief, and the president of defence contractor Arms Tech, to determine if the terrorists had nuclear strike capability, and if so to stop them. The winding plot leads Snake once more into an epic battle.
Having grown from the style popularized by Resident Evil, Metal Gear Solid was ground breaking in its use of spoken dialogue, an intricate if somewhat obtuse plot, and cinematic presentation.
