My very first Metal Gear game, I am growing up.

Metal Gear games have always been a console first game in my world, so it was never really on my radar until it popped up on my backlog.

I know Metal Gear through pop culture osmosis, Hideo Kojima by reputation and I knew somewhat what I was going into with the memes created around Armstrong.

But I did not know what I was stepping into.

While it is a questionable port that manages to barely keep the game together, with some tender love from the modding community. It does not have the best keyboard and mouse controls and a frustrating blocking mechanic kept me worried I was complaining about it too much.

Other than that, it is an excellent game with some wonderful boss battles, kick-ass soundtrack and lovely Hideo Kojima weirdness.

I had to use this mod to make the game work at 1440p: https://www.nexusmods.com/metalgearrisingrevengeance/mods/1
