Welcome to Pt. 2 in a series of long-form video essays on legendary game director Hideo Kojima! In this episode, we'll take a trip back to the late 80s and very early 1990s, to learn about the one Metal Gear most people in the English-speaking world never played: 1990's METAL GEAR 2: SOLID SNAKE.

*******************************

"Metal Gear is an espionage top-down action-adventure game developed and published by Konami for the MSX2 (in Japan and Europe) in 1987. It is known as the first game to promote stealth tactics over run-and-gun gameplay. It is the first game in the Metal Gear series of action-adventure games.

Set in 1995 South Africa, players control a rookie operative (codenamed "Solid Snake") in an elite United States special forces unit called FOXHOUND, as he infiltrates a fortified militaristic compound (known as Outer Heaven) to both rescue top agent "Gray Fox" and destroy a new, mysterious superweapon known as Metal Gear. He must use a variety of weapons (such as a silenced pistol, a grenade launcher, and C4 explosives) and gadgets (such as binoculars, thermal goggles, and a cardboard box disguise) to progress through the compound, rescuing members of the nearby resistance along the way. Throughout the game, Snake can gain assistance with his portable transceiver, in which he communicates with his commander (Big Boss) and key members of the resistance.

While the original game was never released in North America, the game was later ported to to the Nintendo Entertainment System (which was released worldwide in 1987-1988). This port includes an updated level design, including a brand new outdoor prologue segment. It was also ported to PC MS-DOS computers and the Commodore 64 in 1990, and to mobile phones in 2004 (2008 in North America).

An updated version of the original game (alongside the official sequel, Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake) was included as a bonus in Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence for the PlayStation 2 (with a re-translated English script, a new difficulty setting, and an unlockable Boss Survival). This version was also included in the Metal Gear Solid 3 part of Metal Gear Solid HD Collection for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3."
