Technically, it IS... it's just not a terribly impressive one.

Whatever, he can keep his certificates as long as he doesn't start bragging about how he made the stealth genre, that's bull. He may have gotten there first, but judging from the NES version, Metal Gear is a pretty piss-poor stealth game. MGS may be better, but it was beaten to the market by Thief, which far outclasses it. And Thief II outclasses them both.

Sorry. It just irks me a little when people talk about what a great stealth game MGS is and completely ignore the Thief series. Not as much as when people talk about the whole open-world concept as being derived from GTA when cRPGs had been doing it for at least a decade before, but still...

Ahhh, I'm griping pointlessly. Ignore me...


Check out the original MSX2 version of Metal Gear 2.Most of the gameplay you've seen in the Solid series originated from this.This award should have been,most ideas stolen from action movie award,or best use of Kurt Russell's cheesy past.They could at least mention the numerous amounts of Lego's Kojima used during production of each Solid title.
