Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots – June 12
The Metal Gear Solid was well-established as a classic series for the PlayStation by the time Guns of the Patriots came out. The original game had blown us all away on the original PlayStation and both Sons of Liberty and Snake Eater had been huge hits on the PS2. Solid Snake had cemented himself as a gaming icon and his final game, Guns of the Patriots, offered us an incredible but bittersweet conclusion to his tale.
Metal Gear Solid 4 was highly anticipated for the PS3 and was arguably even a system seller. As the final chapter in Snake’s story, there was no way that veteran Metal Gear fans were going to sit this one out. The game was a smash hit upon its release and offered players everything they could hope for in a Metal Gear game. Snake’s final outing had us tearing up several times and was backed up with fantastic gameplay that could only be possible on the PS3. It’s hard to believe its been a decade since we last saw our battle weary hero. Snake, if you’re out there, we salute you!
