metal gear (series)

A series of stealth action video games created by Kojima Hideo and developed and published by Konami. In the series, the player takes control of a Special Forces Operative (Solid Snake in most games) repeatedly facing off against the latest incarnation of the eponymous superweapon "Metal Gear": a combat walker mecha tank with nuclear launching capabilities.

The series is famous for pioneering the stealth game genre, for its lengthy cinematic cut scenes, intricate storylines, fourth wall-breaking sense of humor, and its exploration of the nature of politics, warfare, and philosophical themes.
