Pre-Owned Metal Gear Solid: VR Missions

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Your mission [should you choose to accept it] is to battle your way through over 300 classified operations against relentless professional killers. Seek and Destroy: Take out dozens of elusive new targets like lethal hovering crystals. Play as the Ninja: Rip your enemies to shreds with an entire arsenal of stealth Ninja weapons. Mystery Mode: Try and solve complex murder mysteries before you become one. Endless Swarms of Guards: Take out as many guards as you can in 60 seconds or try and stop a 50 foot guard dead in his tracks. Over 300 New Training Missions: Endless covert operations requiring everything from brute force to a razor sharp mind. .COM 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 Cons: * Hierarchical progression of levels can bore expert players * Mostly valuable as an add-on to Metal Gear Solid REVIEW Metal Gear Solid: the revolutionary game that invented its own genre. A game that redefined the way we imagine games and how we play them. As has been well documented, Metal Gear Solid is a game that focuses mainly on stealth. Stealth, as displayed by Solid Snake, is the greatest weapon you will have in the game. Haphazard gunfire and sloppy tactics will get you killed in this game. Period. If you want to make it out of this snowy hellhole in one piece, you'd better learn when to act and when to stay still, and you'd better learn quick. What, then, is the point of Metal Gear Solid: VR Missions? Unlike the Japanese version (which released under the name MGS: Integral), the domestic version is not just a slightly updated version of the original game. The Japanese version only added the tuxedo from the original American release, along with a useless first-person perspective that was more trouble than it was worth. For the US version, MGS: VR Missions is essentially an extra disc, which, among other things, adds 300 additional VR missions for the stealthy gamers out there to occupy themselves with. That's right. At the risk of sounding like a used-car salesman, a staggering 300 VR missions awaits to test all of you who thought you were all that the first time around. Those of you who finish all these extra missions will be able to unlock special missions, such as "mystery missions," where you must solve, um, mysteries, kind of like the Hardy Boys. You can also unlock bonus missions, where you can play as the ninja, which is particularly cool. The challenge level is fairly high, and it will take you a while to beat all 300 missions, whi
