Metal Gear Solid has over 50 years of characters & plot lines to know & understand the full scope of the game's universe. You, like us here at DS, value you time here on Earth & can't play EVERY Metal Gear game & understand it all. Luckily Konami & PSN brings you METAL GEAR SOLID DATABASE for your PS3, for FREE too!

The program you download & install is like having a full Metal Gear wiki on your PlayStation 3. Every single tidbit of information about every character, every relationship, every plot line, every single tiny bit of information that is Metal Gear is cover & linked together beautifully. It also reads your MGS4 game save so it wont open up info that you have not played through. How awesome is that? It makes sure to not spoil stuff all on its own. Need to brush up on your MGS history with out playing through all those games? This is the way to go. Big thanks to Konami. I almost forgot about how awful it is to get to playing Metal Gear Online & that horrible Beta delay, & not getting a Subsistence LE copy, Kojima not comming to Canada, & being Raiden in MGS2.
