  Andrew's Game Review: Metal Gear Solid 2
The graphics are superb - the game is at the top of the heap of this genre for its superb modeling and rendering of dark, interior scenes (there are some exterior scenes as well, but most of the game takes place inside the tanker or the plant).
The idea of the game is clearly to involve you in a conspiracy that grows in size and importance as the game progresses.
As the game wraps up the major characters take the opportunity to proclaim their philosophies on personal values, the digital revolution, the nature of truth, the responsibility of parents, and a variety of other topics.

 Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater - GameCritics.com
If a game designer can create dissonance, get the player to reflect on why they are experiencing it, and focus that reflection back into core mechanics of the game, he or she has just accomplished something that only videogames can do.
Metal Gear Solid and Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty both took place in the present, and drew most of their inspiration from contemporary Hollywood action epics like The Rock and Pearl Harbor.
Metal Gear Solid was about a soldier who realized his enemies were not evil, but people who were exploited by selfish politicians.

 IGN: Metal Gear Solid Review
Metal Gear Solid does the perfect job of showing what's capable on the Game Boy Color if enough resources are poured into the project — it's an action game that will hopefully set the standard of what's expected from a portable action-packed adventure.
One of the features that gave Metal Gear Solid on the PlayStation a kick in the variety department was its inclusion of the well-designed VR Missions.
The entire game is quality all the way through, from the outstanding graphics and detailed animation, to the well-produced sounds and music that'll ring familiar to folks already learned in the art of Metal Gear.

Metal Gear Ac!d delivers a truly unique experience, while still including all the major elements from the Metal Gear Solid series its fans have come to know it for, including interesting characters, and an entertaining storyline.
When you start out the game, you are able to place 30 cards in your "deck" (which you can compile through the "Intermission" screens between stages of the game), but as the game continues that number will rise higher and higher, allowing for a more customized deck.
The Metal Gear games have always been know for their unique, over-the-top bosses who are usually require doing things that are out of the ordinary to beat.

 Metal Gear Acid (psp: 2005): Reviews
Offering gameplay based on strategy and sharp decision-making skills, Metal Gear Acid is a turn-based, tactical espionage game requiring players to collect cards and strategically construct their own decks to complete various missions and objectives.
It may not be a typical Metal Gear title, but it is a very robust game and it is worth a look for those yearning for something different.
Metal Gear Acid is a decent tactical card battling game, but it is not a true Metal Gear title, and for me I expect no less.

 "METAL GEAR SOLID"/ a game review from Christian Spotlight
This is a mature game, and it is silly to pretend otherwise.
The game itself is a masterpiece of cinematics and action, emphasizing not mindless killing as much as stealth skills.
This games violence is not extreme however the language is extreme and some of the animated scenes are rather crude.

 PSP Game Reviews: Metal Gear ACID
Metal Gear ACID is easily one of the best turn-based strategy games to come along in years.
As the game progresses, Snake eventually joins forces with a sexy special forces officer, uncovers secrets about his own past, and (say it with me) comes face to face once again with the nuclear-powered menace known as Metal Gear.
All of the in-game graphics were put together using the polygon models and textures from Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3, which means that the environments are rather cubic and plain, but the people and weapons are exquisitely detailed and loaded with animation.

 MGS:TUS | View topic - Game Informer MGS 4 Article
Metal Gear Solid was one of the defining games of the original PlayStation, and was obviously a huge hit.
The Metal Gear Solid games have always rewarded players for not killing, and with such extreme consequences for the deaths of the soldiers in Metal Gear Solid 4, this moral lesson seems to be even more prevalent.
We know that the game takes place roughly after 10 years after the end of MGS 2, and that Snake is still working with Otacon to destroy Metal Gear technology, and that he is aging prematurely due to the primitive cloning technology that created him.

 Metal Gear Acid Review for PlayStation Portable at GamingExcellence   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
And yes, many fans weren’t sure what to make of Metal Gear Acid when it was announced; to think that the first Metal Gear game on the PSP would be, gasp, a card game of all things.
The game feels a little like a chess match where you not only have to manage (and account) for your actions, but the time interval until you’ll be able to play again (and what can happen to you during that time).
In the end, while Metal Gear Acid is an amazing title which strategy fans and hardcore MG addicts will appreciate and love, it cannot be recommended to everyone.

 Metal Gear (series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is currently in development, with the tagline: "No Place to Hide." It is to be produced by Ken-ichiro Imaizumi and Hideo Kojima with Kojima also reprising his role as director along with co-director Shuyo Murata.
The original Metal Gear, which was released in 1987 during the Cold War, dealt with the manipulation of soldiers by politicians of the East and West, countered by the concept of "Outer Heaven", a country without politics.
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, which is chronologically the first game in the series, introduces a younger version of Big Boss during the Cold War, who goes by the codename of Naked Snake.

 PSP Game Reviews: Metal Gear ACID 2
All of the cards in the game are based on characters, items, and objects drawn from the half-dozen or so Metal Gear games that have come out through the years.
Also, while the environments in the first Metal Gear Acid were fairly generic, many of the structures and characters in this new game bear a striking resemblance to the places and people found in Metal Gear Solid 2 and Metal Gear Solid 3.
Perhaps it was because the concept of a strategy-based Metal Gear was no longer new to me. Perhaps it was because the levels were shorter.

I think the game could have worked a bit better if the camera had been controlled properly by the game rather than the user.
Although the Metal Gear series is the exception to that.
The strategy of the game will make it worthwhile and the graphics will be a great reason to give this unique PSP title a chance.

Next week, Metal Gear Solid fans will have a chance to add a little stealth to their holidays with the release of Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops for the PSP.
This was quite a chore to implement and playtest into the game, but I think MGS fans will appreciate having all of Snake's moves available in a new game on PSP.
The game is set six years after Operation Snake Eater, and a lot of water has passed under the bridge in the MGS universe.

 Review: Metal Gear Acid for PSP on Gamepro.com.
Solid Snake plays a card-collecting game to infiltrate a research station in Metal Gear Acid, possibly the trippiest installment in the renowned stealth series.
The Metal Gear series traditionally mixes creepy storylines with tight stealth gameplay, so it's natural that some fans may be confused to learn that Solid Snake's latest mission will require decks of cards to complete, much like Magic: The Gathering.
Still, Konami deserves recognition for tailoring the new Metal Gear game for the new console when so many other PSP launch titles are merely miniaturized versions of big-screen games.
