Hitting store shelves in a springtime when hundreds of thousands of
Hideo Kojima fans were anxiously awaiting the projected summer release of
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots for
PlayStation 3, this
PlayStation 2 compilation is presented as an opportunity to catch up on back story, as well as to play (or re-play) through three of the earlier
PlayStation consoles' most highly acclaimed stealth games. Included are a
PlayStation 2 port of the original
PlayStation version of
Metal Gear Solid -- the game that some say defined the stealth genre -- and the "Directors Cut" editions of its two
PS2 sequels,
Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance and
Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence. ~ T.J. Deci, All Game Guide
