While a Metal Gear Solid movie is looking pretty unlikely, that hasn't stopped Gamerzines.com from putting together a list of the actors and actresses they would like to see star in a MGS movie.
Don't worry, Christian Bale isn't on the list :-D

"25 Things About Me - Psycho Mantis:

1. Welcome…. I’ve been expecting you… but let’s not make this all about me. After all, we both know why you’re here…. You came to see if I really am the most powerful practitioner of psychokinesis and telepathy in the world!

2. So, you don’t think I can amaze you as I did for millions that played Metal Gear Solid? Well, my powers have already connected to your mind! Yes… through these very words, I can see your deepest thoughts.

3. Startled? Don’t ..."

"With releases on just about every platform from the past twenty years, numerous sequels, remakes and non-canonical spinoffs, Metal Gear is one of the most prolific and longest-living series in gaming. It paved the way for stealth gaming in general, and in particular, broke ground for tech-stealth games like Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell and Syphon Filter. It's impossible to do justice to such a wide-ranging experience in so few words—that this history can only hope to scratch the surface is a te..."

The Metal Gear Solid series is well-known for it's unique and interesting bosses. From a weirdo who can control bees, to a buxom blonde sniper with a thing for wolves, to a seemingly-invincible bisexual vampire... MGS has every type of odball imagineable up against poor Snake and Raiden.

Here's a list of the insane bosses of Metal Gear Solid.

Someone on XMBonline believes that not everyone can review a Metal Gear Solid game. He/she believes that the review for Eurogamer did not appreciate the 'core value' of the franchise and believes the negatives(long loading cutscenes) are more of a 'blessing than a curse'.

"I discovered this little gem during my Garage Cleaning. A press kit for Metal Gear Solid 3, this item was handed out in limited quantities approximately every 15 minutes during E3 2004 (the game came out about six months later in November). What is it exactly? It’s a CD containing the main theme of the game, “Snake Eater”, that is held in the center of a fake cardboard vinyl record that matches the 60’s theme of the game.

"Video games have a long tradition of creating tough-as-nails protagonists that fight hordes of oncoming enemies. Still, few have been able to elevate themselves to true “badass” status. Sam Fisher and Solid Snake are two characters that have been known for years for their ability to strike fear into enemy NPO’s and let gamers unleash their inner Special Ops soldier. However, there is only room at the top for one badass to rule them all. Myarcadeplanet is putting that power in your hands. It’s..."
