Undoubtedly ahead of its time. MGS1’s greatest strength lies in its ability to make their cinematic vision seamlessly thrive in a time of such unadvanced & unpolished technology. Every cutscene has a clear cinematic approach, and while some may say it looks goofy due to the aged animation, I still believe it to be masterful & worthy of appreciation because of the commitment & confidence present in the execution. The game’s exceptional quality definitely deserves a remake that would allow players to fully grasp the sheer brilliance of this revolutionary PlayStation masterpiece.
