Metal Gear Solid (2000) — stealth action with a top-down view. The once famous, but now disgraced special squad FOXHOUND captures a US military base in Alaska — and along with it, the Metal Gear REX project, which was in development there, a combat robot equipped with an electromagnetic cannon capable of launching nuclear charges invisible to radar (since they do not require missiles — and therefore no booster stages, by which the fact of launch is detected ). The government, through Colonel Roy Campbell, contacts a former member of FOXHOUND (call sign — Solid Snake) — living just nearby. Since it was he who was (partly) the reason for the disgrace of the squad (in the previous series of the game — when it was simply called Metal Gear — he revealed the fact that their boss (name Jack, last name unknown, call sign Big Boss) — ; double agent — and then the fact that BB is his father, so he has no motive to help the rebels).
