That little green codec screen on a real PlayStation 1 hits different on a Sony CRT in a dark room.

I somehow never really played Metal Gear Solid back in the day, and after finally sitting down with it on original hardware… now I completely understand why people loved this game.

The stealth, the tension, the codec calls, the atmosphere… it felt like the mission was actually talking to you.

Did you answer every codec call, or did you just want to get back to sneaking around?

BOOM.
