This game not only holds up well as a modern <em>Metal Gear Solid<\/em> title, but it serves as the true finale for one of gaming\u2019s most iconic characters. It deserves a remaster for that reason alone, but also because it remains trapped in a nearly 20-year-old console\u2019s library, which just does not feel right at all.<\/p>\n<h2>6.
