Just played metal gear solid. Damn, that actually surprised me. The story was good, gameplay was good, and this was all done on the PS1? I'm taking a small break before heading up to MGS2 and figured I'd share this screenshot for all my fellow gamers XD

When I was a kid a babysitter I had brought MGS1 and played it. It always stuck in my mind and later got me to try the series and I loved it. The portion I saw included the >!jail cell and using the ketchup to get out.!< No other game was doing things like MGS at the time.

I must have been around 5/6 at the time. Its safe to say that game wasn't appropriate, but it really showed what gaming could be.

Edit: added spoiler tag. I hope no one saw that who shouldn't have. I forgot that despite talking about a ~26 year old game that it's in a thread for people just now playing it.
