01Overview

Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake is an action-adventure stealth video game created and published by Konami for the MSX2 computer platform. It is a direct continuation of the MSX2 version of the original Metal Gear, and it was written and designed by the series' creator, Hideo Kojima. Kojima's inspiration for the game arose as a response to the development of Snake's Revenge, a separate sequel being produced at the same time for the NES, intended primarily for the North American and European markets. The game was released in 1990 and is part of the Metal Gear franchise. It is a single-player game seen from a top-down, bird's-eye view, and it blends tactical and shooter elements with adventure. Its themes are action, survival and stealth, so you work your way through the game by avoiding detection where you can. Konami developed and published it, and the MSX2 original was later made available on the Wii.
