Metal Gear Solid is one of the smartest video game franchises ever created.

It's also one of the dumbest.

And somehow...those aren't contradictory statements.

This week, we're celebrating one of Nate's favorite gaming franchises of all time. From Shadow Moses to Guns of the Patriots, we're talking cyborg ninjas, vampires, bee guys, giant walking nuclear robot dinosaurs, Presidents named Snake, Presidents that grab your junk, nanomachines, and the wonderfully unhinged mind of Hideo Kojima.
