The story of Metal Gear Solid follows Solid Snake, a retired soldier who infiltrates a nuclear weapons disposal facility to neutralize the terrorist threat from FOXHOUND a renegade special forces unit. Snake must liberate two hostages, the head of DARPA and the president of a major arms manufacturer, confront the terrorists, and stop them from launching a nuclear strike.
Despite a transition to 3D, Metal Gear Solid's gameplay remains similar to its predecessor Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake. The player must navigate Solid Snake, through the game's areas without being detected by enemies.Detection is triggered by the player moving into an enemy's line of sight and sets off an alarm that draws armed enemies to his location.This also triggers "alert mode" and the player must then hide and remain undetected, at which point “evasion mode” begins and once the counter reaches zero the game returns to "infiltration mode" where enemies are not suspicious of Snake’s presence. The radar cannot be used in alert or evasion mode.
Metal Gear Solid was a commercial success, shipping over 6 million copies worldwide.Upon release, it was one of the most rented games,and topped sales charts here in the UK.
