OWR: Metal Gear Solid

Welcome to One Word Review, GamerNode's unique take on videogame critique. Every Sunday, we will present a single game, reviewed with but a single word from each of a handful of reviewers.

You may not always find our words in your standard dictionary, but we have faith that you will catch our meaning, nonetheless. Videogames are so often rated, reviewed, and discussed to exhaustion, so while some may call OWR a creative way to be lazy, we call it succinct, sincere...and fun. We love reader input at GN, so be sure to throw your own OWRs in the comments section, too.

Another big-name sequel is on the horizon, and thus, members of the gaming community find themselves thinking about previous entries in the series. This time, it's Metal Gear Solid 4 hitting stores in a few days, so GamerNode has chosen to One Word Review the original Metal Gear Solid on Sony's first PlayStation console. It has been called "classic," "gripping," "beautiful," and "engrossing" by others, so what does GN have to say?
