^Featured article. Well worth a look. Check it out. MGS fans.

Extract from article

"In Metal Gear and the MGS series, which began in 1998, the protagonist crosses a hallway when the enemy's back is turned, or huddles in a cardboard box or steel drum. He hides in lockers or creeps through ventilation ducts in ceilings, in keeping with the theme of not "confronting" an enemy but "hiding."

The sense of "hide-and-seek" excitement is further enhanced each time a new version of the MGS series is released. So far, more than 22 million copies of MGS series games have been sold".
