Unfortunately, Raiden is still in this game

Metal Gear Solid has long been one of my favorite series (although only espion4ge has the right to say it gave him a gamertag!). I still remember watching my friend play through the entire Tanker chapter of MGS2 without even having a memory card to save on. When the new Metal Gear Solid HD Collection was released, I saw and seized the opportunity to own two of my favorite games of all time and a third game (Peace Walker) that I had never played.

Microsoft hasn’t forgotten the hardcore gamers – there’s Sesame Street!

I’ve been so busy in life lately that I actually forgot about E3 already being under way. I know that big titles like Modern Warfare 3 and Elder Scrolls V are coming out at the end of this year, but does Microsoft have any interesting games up its sleeves? Weren’t there supposed to be Kinect games for hardcore gamers announced this year? Why have you forsaken the hardcore gamer, Microsoft?

Big Boss sneaks his way through the jungles of Costa Rica in the best Metal Gear Solid yet.

It’s been a pretty long time since I picked up the Big Boss PSP bundle back in June. What happened to it? With all of my articles devoted to Starcraft 2 as of late, some of you may be wondering if I had even played it yet. The answer is most definitely yes. I’ve been playing Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker on my hour long commute home from work every day now for the past month, and I’ve actually already gotten the credits to roll but the game has so much post-game that I suspect that I will eventually hit 100 hours in this game. Hit the jump to read the review on what I now consider my favorite Metal Gear Solid game of the franchise.

I just started playing Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker at the end of last week after beating Portable Ops. This past weekend, I took my wife to the mall (as usual) and with the Metal Gear Solid games not working too well for portability in a mall, I decided to bring my DS and Dragon Quest IX instead. After putting about an hour or two into both games now, I’ve started to really enjoy both. I like each so much that I had a very difficult time deciding what to play today on the subway. So…I ended up packing both my DS Lite and my PSP into my bag to bring to work. This can’t keep happening though. Only one will become the victor…who will it be?

Read on for the background behind each of these major portable heavy hitters this summer as well as my very short initial impressions of both.

Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops continues the tale of Naked Snake, a.k.a. Big Boss

It’s been about a month and a half since I picked up the Big Boss PSP bundle, as I was so excited to play Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. Of course, it was recommended that I play through Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops first, and so I’ve finally done so. Now Peace Walker is finally sitting in my PSP! In any case, I am ready to share a review on Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops. Is it still worth checking out today?

An artist name peachi has been putting out comics for each Metal Gear Solid game for the past several months. The comics are lengthy so they’re broken up into several parts and she’s up to about halfway through Metal Gear Solid 3. They’re very humorous to read if you’ve already played the games – not sure if you’ll get as much out of them if you haven’t yet since it makes fun of gameplay elements/characters in the games. As a Metal Gear Solid fan who has played them all, I found them be quite a riot and couldn’t help but share them here.
