Hideo Kojimas iconic stealth game Metal Gear Solid is celebrated in the latest issue of Retro Gamer.
I always viewed Solid Snake as an antihero, says Jeremy.

Thats why in my mind the choice to make him sound like Clint Eastwood was obvious.
I wanted him raspy and tired of war, and someone burned out.
In my mind, the Clint Eastwood character fit the bill exactly.

Antonio can still remember the first time he experienced Kojimas game.
The first time I saw Metal Gear Solid was at a Blockbuster, he explains.
They had the demo to play in the store.

I didnt understand English back then so I had no clue what to do.
I was stuck and couldnt get past the [starting] Cavern area.
Every time we went to Blockbuster, Id try it again.

I was captivated by this strange game where I had to hide.
If sneaky shenanigans arent your cup of tea, theres plenty of other great articles in our new issue.
