7. Metal Gear Solid (PSX)

"Snake?!?! Snaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake!!!!!" Metal Gear Solid. The game I had only tried to play once and couldn't even get into the first warehouse before giving up, is now #7 on my all time game list. How did that happen you ask? Well sitting next to 2 of the biggest MGS fans in the world during my 2nd year at DigiPen kinda helped that out, but once I actually sat down and tried to play it, I saw exactly what they were talking about. This game is flat out amazing, from it's story to voice acting, to it's simple, yet incredibly good art direction, it had it all. You weren't forced to sneak around all the time, but you also didn't have to play it run and gun, it was a great mix of both and that's what made it work. And plus, Snake is such a bad ass in this game, and there's a cyborg NINJA, awesome!!!
