METAL GEAR Retrospective

Ok, so here is something not very film related but just as important to me: Metal Gear. If you have no idea what I'm talking about then I want you to pay extra attention. I would love to get more people onto the greatest video game franchise of all time.
GameTrailers.com is running video retrospective of the entire Metal Gear saga split into parts. Here today is Part One. But before I play the Retrospective, I want to play a 15 minute trailer for the new Metal Gear Solid 4 game coming out June 12th, 2008. That's right, a day before both THE HAPPENING and THE INCREDIBLE HULK. That is going to be one great week.
Yes, the trailer is 15 minutes but assure you that if you are a movie and film fan, you will eat this trailer up. Not only do the Metal Gear games blend the best of cinema and tactical espionage action gameplay, but it also sports one of the greatest and most heralded plots of any story, ever (mostly my words, but the game is lauded world-wide; google it if you don't believe me). Tune in throughout the week for more movie updates as well as Part Two. So without further ado, here is the magnificent trailer for METAL GEAR SOLID 4 and the METAL GEAR Retrospective. Enjoy.
