State of the Save

The crew is back! Eric, Michael, and Nick are putting on their stealth suits and diving into Metal Gear Solid. We talk about the playstation classic and discuss the other games we have been playing.

As always, you can send your emails to [email protected] and follow us on Tik Tok, Instagram, and Twitter @stateofthesave.

On this very special episode of File Corrupted, we prep for our play through of Metal Gear Solid with a recap of the story so far. As we are playing through the franchise in chronological order and not order of release, beware of spoilers for Metal Gear Solid 3 (which we played through in season 1 so check that out). This show will lay the ground work for next week's part one on Metal Gear Solid. We are playing up through the room right after the Sniper Wolf fight. 

Below is the link to the Metal Gear Solid Manual we said you may be needing last episode.
