It is too much to be written in this blog about the history of Metal Gear Series. However, I will tell you on the early history on how this game was firstly develop.

It begins with a man...
With Visions and Missions to be achieved..
To achieve where smell and taste can be felt in games..
Who else but..

Mr. Hideo Kojima

In the beginning, Kojima tried to develop several games. After a half year efforts on making the games, they were cancelled by the "superior".

Although he have the thought to despair and find other works, he insist and took the offer to make a combat game.
With the limited technology of MSX2, he decide that combat game is not very suitable and develop a
Tactical Espionage Game
where stealth and silent is the best way to proceed the game.
At First , the idea was rejected,but after a few presentations that he made,
The Evil Konami saw the opportunity and gave him the chance to create the game which then was called

METAL GEAR that was launched in 1987. Given the high demand for the sequels, he continued the series with more complex story telling and trying to give the best game experience to his fans.

These are his legacies to us..
