1.In these technically advanced times, the United States was the only superpower in the world. Part of its position was due to a superior nuclear arsenal. To preserve the modern world order, America had to maintain its nuclear superiority, and Metal Gear was the weapon it needed. A Metal Gear could fire nuclear warheads from any environment imaginable, like mountains or swamps, and its nuclear launches would be invisible to every detection system in existence. It has nearly impenetrable armour. It is impervious to small arms fire and most explosive ordnance. A Metal Gear has defence systems to operate in Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical (NBC) warfare. A Metal Gear is untraceable and unstoppable. It is the ultimate military and political tool because its owners could carry out a nuclear attack and not be held responsible. Moreover, Metal Gear could avoid (officially) violating international regulations, since its method of firing warheads did not classify it as a nuclear weapon. A self sufficient walking battle-tank, Metal Gear, in the right hands, could pose a serious threat to mankind.
2.A small, but powerfully armed nation called “Outer Heaven” emerges from deep within South Africa. NATO learns that they are designing the 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. It’s 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. Having seriously miscalculated, Big Boss is forced to fiercely battle Solid Snake, with the latter eventually defeating Boss as the Outer Heaven burns around him.
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, then in retirement, back to active duty to infiltrate Zanzibar and recover Dr. Marv. Solid Snake made 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 then 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.
In the dawn of 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 are demanding the government hand over the remains of Big Boss. They warn that if their demands aren’t met within 24 hours, they will 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. Secondly, Snake has to eliminate the terrorist threat and prevent a nuclear launch with the clock ticking. Once again, Snake heads into the battle… alone.
After defeating the Next Generation Special Forces Solid Snake was left to fight their leader, who was his brother, Liquid Snake, in the walking battle tank Metal Gear REX. After defeating Metal Gear and Liquid, he escaped with new friends Otacon and Mayrel. Things will be different for Snake now. He then went and lived alone, in retirement, with Mayrel, back in the peaceful Alaska.
However, since the incident on Shadow Moses Island, Metal Gear’s top-secret technology has been leaked into the black market through the machinations of Revolver Ocelot. As a result, countless variations of Metal Gears have sprung up in every corner of the globe, making the weapon an increasingly common component of the armed forces of nuclear powers.
This movie tells us about one of them.
3.Metal Gear first went on sale in Japan on July 7, 1987. That game was born with the following 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 is story, full of plot twist and intricate human drama, garnished praise from the critics and made it into a huge international hit. The sequel, Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake, released later, also received high praise. The release of 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 has been unveiled to fans across the world in the form of Metal Gear Solid, only for the Playstation game console and Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty on the Playstation 2 game console.
