At last, Solid Snake is back on Nintendo's side, having taken a leave for a number of years. The Twin Snakes is a remake of Metal Gear Solid, the classic game from legendary designer Hideo Kojima. Originally released on the Sony PlayStation, Metal Gear Solid is regarded as one of the first stealth games ever. Instead of controlling a seemingly invincible hero who can take on legions of heavily armed enemies, Solid Snake's primary skill is infiltration--breaking and entering while remaining unseen and undetected. You'll evade patrolling guards, duck under security cameras, and eliminate your foes quietly as you uncover the dark truth about your mission.

This GameSpot Game Guide to Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes will cover general strategies on how to play the game, including discussion of some of the gameplay conventions borrowed from Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty that have been grafted into The Twin Snakes. The guide also includes tips on weapons and equipment, a full walk-through of the campaign, and a chapter on some of the game's secrets and unlockable bonuses.
