That game was born with the notion: "Fighting alone does not make a game. Stealth is more important!!". Metal Gear had a huge impact on gamers and manufacturers alike. Not only was it a new and original game design, but its story, full of plot twists and intricate human drama, garnished praise from the critics and made it into a huge international hit. The sequel, "Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake" would mark the last time that "Metal Gear" appeared on any platform. Nevertheless, the "Metal Gear" series continued to be widely discussed as a visionary masterpiece. Today, the true vision of Metal Gear will be unveiled to fans across the world in the form of "METAL GEAR SOLID". The Dawn of the New Millennium; the 21st Century... The nuclear weapons disposal facility on Shadow Moses Island in Alaska's Fox Archipelago is attacked and captured by Next Generation Special Forces led by members of FOX-HOUND. The terrorists have secured hundreds of nuclear warheads and they're demanding that the government turn over the remains of Big Boss. They warn that if their demands are not met within 24 hours, they'll launch a nuclear weapon. Solid Snake is once again called back to duty in a top-secret mission to deal with the greatest terrorist threat the world has ever seen. First, he must single-handedly infiltrate the nuclear weapons disposal site and rescue two hostages, DARPA Chief Donald Anderson and the President of ArmsTech, Kenneth Baker, and then eliminate the terrorist threat and prevent a nuclear launch. The clock is ticking. Once again, Snake heads into battle...alone. PREVIOUS OPERATIONS: Outer Heaven Revolt (1995) A small, but powerful armed nation called "Outer Heaven" emerges from deep within South Africa. NATO learns that they are designing a nuclear-equipped walking battle tank called "Metal Gear," and they send in one of their best agents, Gray Fox. But, he is taken hostage, and they are forced to send in the newest member of FOX-HOUND, Solid Snake. He rescues Gray Fox and forces the surrender of Outer Heaven. As Solid Snake escapes, he is confronted by one man. Its FOX-HOUND's commander, Big Boss! It seems that Outer Heaven was a mercenary company and Big Boss was the mastermind behind it. Big Boss had intentionally chosen his most inexperienced agent, Solid Snake, thinking he would fail, but he seriously miscalculated. After a fierce battle, Snake defeats Big Boss as Outer Heaven burns around him. From "Metal Gear" Zanizbar Riot (1999) In 1999, Dr. Kio Marv, inventor of the oil refining microbe, OILIX, was taken hostage by Zanzibar, a heavily armed nation in central Asia ruled by a minority ethnic group. Zanzibar was planning to gain political and military hegemony over a world suffering under the cruel weight of a worldwide energy crisis. Roy Campbell, commander of FOX-HOUND, called Solid Snake, now in retirement, back to active duty to infiltrate Zanzibar and recover Dr. Marv. Solid Snake make it past Zanzibar's impressive steel wall and penetrated deep into its interior. Once inside he destroyed Metal Gear, which had been completed after being transported from Outer Heaven, and defeated Gray Fox, former member of FOX-HOUND and now leader of the Zanzibar mercenary corps. He was also successful in retrieving the OILIX manufacturing process. Finally, he would once again meet his destiny with the man who was pulling the strings in Zanzibar, Big Boss! He had survived Outer Heaven and created Zanzibar in order to make a world rife with conflict and war, a world in which soldiers such as himself would always have a place. After defeating Big Boss for the second and final time, Snake gave up on war and retired to the peaceful Alaskan wilderness.

WALKTHROUGH |--------| This walkthrough was posted in www.metalgear.com during the time that it the website was still up. I was a fan so therefore, immediately took it there not knowing that soon it will close down. It is well written. Who wrote it I don't know. Area 1: Cargo Dock You start this area behind a water filtration tank. Before moving an inch, check out your map on the upper right hand corner of the screen.

To get to the ground level exit move to the north wall. At the north wall move to the left corner with a MAMC and a sleeping guard underneath. Staying close to the wall, crawl behind the guard and into the air vent duct behind him. The balcony level exit is a little more difficult. After picking up the socom pistol, head towards the north east corner. While hugging the wall, sidestep underneath the MAMC. Once me MAMC pans to the left, run to the right and up the steps.

There are two trap doors in the first hallway. Follow the hallway to the staircase. At the top1 me right path leads to stinger ammo, and the left path is the exit. The long hall after the door has no traps so you need not worry. At me end of the hall stands Metal Gear Rex. Run to the left and climb the ladder. Make a left at the top of the ladder and make a right at the fork on the scaffold. Up another ladder, to another ladder and you should be on top of Rex. Use the ladder across Rex to get to the other side. Follow the scaffolding to the control room. Watch the conversation between Liquid and Ocelot. After their conversation, the PAL key will be shot of your hand and fall to the bottom. Make your way down Rex and look for the PAL key in the sewer surrounding Rex. The PAL key falls in different spots so search every area of this toxic molt. After retrieving the key make your way back to the control loom and follow Otacon's directions. As you enter the control room, throw in a chaff grenade to avoid detection. Place the PAL key in the first computer. Now head back to the cold room where you fought Vulcan Raven. Stay In this room for a while until the PAL key turn blue. Do not hold the PAL key as you make your way back. Place the key in the middle terminal men run back to the blast furnace. Enter the steam room and wait for a minute. When the key turns red, make your way back up to the control room. Do not take your time, as the key tends to cool off pretty fast. Place the hot PAL key in the third computer and get ready for a surprise. You have lust armed the nuclear warheads. Master Miler will contact you to let you know that he really is Liquid Snake. The control room doors automatically lock and the room begins to fill with poisonous gas. What to do, what to do. Give your friend Otacon a call. He will unlock the doors to the control room for you to exit. As you exit the room, go down the stairs and follow Liquid to the right. Area 25: Underground Base Cave To disable Rex, use the chaff grenades to disrupt his radar. Position your self in front of Rex and shoot off a stinger missile towards Rex's left shoulder. Throw another chaff and fire off another stinger. Repeat the process a few more times. When half of Rex's energy gone, the mech swings violently. However, nothing is over. As the Random explodes, the Ninja appears revealing his identity. After damaging Rex severely, and leaping from one place to another, the Ninja is finally caught by Metal Gear Rex. You can only watch in anguish as the Ninja is crushed like a bug underneath Rex's foot. Now Liquid turns his attention back to you. Your target has changed; it is now the beak of Rex where Liquid sits. Do not' bother using the chaffs, Liquid is controlling Rex manually. Run in between Rex's legs to avoid the laser and the missiles. Once behind Rex get the stinger ready, as soon ass it locks on, fire a missile and run between his legs. Repeat this pattern a few more times to bring Metal Gear Rex down. Area 26: Underground Base (Solid vs. Liquid) After Rex goes down, watch the sequence between Solid and Liquid. Liquid tells you of his inferiority complex and calls you out. Atop the broken down Rex is the site for the final battle. You will have five minutes to save Meryl (or Otacon depending on whether you gave up or not in the torture chamber) Chase after Liquid and hit him with your Punch, punch, kick combo. As Liquid runs away blinking, follow him until the blinking stops. Then hit him again with the combo. After defeating Liquid, it is time to make your escape. Area 27: Escape Route Follow Meryl (or Otacon) to the garage. The only jeep with keys is the one on the far left. Avoid having a guard behind you as you make your escape. Aim for the barrels at the corner of the gate to create an opening. As you drive to escape, a checkpoint blocks your path. Again, aim for the barrels on the left and right side to continue your escape. As you keep driving, another checkpoint blocks your way. This time shoot all the guards as fast as you can to clear the way. On your way out Liquid comes up from behind in his own jeep. Aim your machine gun right at liquid and shoot in the hood. Liquid will try everything to prevent you from escaping. He will shoot you, ram you from behind, hit you from the side and even try to block your path. At the end of the tunnel, your jeeps crash. Liquid emerges from the wreck while you are pinned under your jeep. As Liquid gets ready to finish you off Keep your eyes on the TV you might miss something. PHEW!!! That was a good one.

TIPS AND PERSONAL SPYING |--------| this are the things I discovered myself while I was playing the game. It is really fun playing it. And I enjoyed it. If I missed something please e-mail it at the address at the end of this FAQ'! This is a good one, I discovered it since the Japanese version and while I was looking at the technical demonstration that snake aims while walking I decided to find the key itself. So it end up holding crouch button while holding the aim button. Another useful one is the stafe mode in eyesight view. I found out that pressing [L1] or pushing [R1] will pan the sight of snake either left or right. Piss the guards at the medical room Is a fun one. Just knock it the wall many times to make the genome soldier mad The make Meryl blush is a good one too. First I saw her in her panties then I decided to look for more secrets about making fun of Meryl and I accidentally discovered that staring her for a time will make her bush! When the time I was really bored I tried to trip on Mei Ling and called her without doing nothing(just for fun) when she started to say nothing I called her till she smiled in a sarcastic way (then I called her again and she stuck her tongue out at me she really looks cute! MORE TIPS AND PERSONAL SPYING |--------| For the beginner type, he'll just break the neck of the unsuspecting guard. Breaking necks are really useful but what if you get caught? You can use the genome soldier that you just GRABBED as a shield! To do it while holding him in his neck hold the [square] button and keep holding it while moving the [directional] button. Every move is a sneak in metal gear. But what about noisy catwalks? Don't you just hate those places! If you are the one of those who wished there were no cat walks at all. Read this section! To sneak and grab a lazy genome soldier in a cat walk use the crawl system. That way you will be quiet enough to break his neck un founded! If you are one of the socom die hards then you need to read this. Socom usually aim great but you probably cant move while aiming. So while drawing and aiming hold the [square] button and the [x] button to move while aiming. Although you cannot lock into an enemy while doing this, this is pretty useful in avoiding fire fights and casualties. The nikita is one of the most un-used item here in the game. So if you'll use it as a stealth weapon hod [triangle] button to see the first person view. If you want to use it in a Hurry way don�t use the first person view. Rather use the [directional] buttons and don�t make many turns. Making turns slows down the speed of the Missile. Looking for something? Use the L1 and R1 buttons while in the first person view. This is useful in corners to spot a guard. But this is usually used in the EXTREME mode! Witch there is no radar! To kill a Genome Soldier in one flip, he must be standing near a ridge. And then flip him. If he falls to a lower level then he's dead. If he falls into the lava (in the blast furnace) then he is toasted. I mean liquidated! Although that smoking is dangerous to your health and snake's us it to see infrared sensors. Or use it just for fun. By the way if a guard sees the smoke then hell know you�re in a particular place. The box have many uses. To use it for stealth use box a and b in their places while a guard is still away. Don�t try to make any unnecessary moves while in the box or you will be detected. To use it with dogs, In the place before the Meryl Gets Shot flip her and quickly hide under the box. When the wolf pisses on it they will no longer harm you. To use it as a transport sys hide in it while in a truck. Wait for a while, and you will be brought to the place designated in the box!

Learns what "real espionage" and "communication between people" are through dealing with Solid Snake. The CODEC used by Solid Snake, codifying satellite communication system, anti-wiring coding, digital real time burst communication, sonar-utilizing radar, etc. were all developed by her. Normal communication (10s of seconds) instantaneously codified, compressed and transmitted in a burst (1 microsecond), received real time, unscrambled, and decoded. Incomparably more innovative than the conventional anti-wiring frequency scrambler. Made possible a 24-hour system unaffected by weather, integrating information from high altitude reconnaissance satellites and low altitude reconnaissance planes.
