'''''Metal Gear''''' is a series of critically-acclaimed techno-thriller stealth [[video games]] created by Hideo Kojima and developed and published by Konami. Beginning first as a series of 2D titles for the [[HEXBox|MSX]], series is best known for its 3D installments, which are usually released under the '''''Metal Gear Solid''''' line of titles. The games revolve around covert operations to destroy [[Transformers|giant mechs]] and to uncover [[Greene County Conspiracy|a massive global conspiracy]], the plot of which is so complex that it is comparable to the level of complexity of [[Sonichu (comic)|the ''Sonichu'' comic]], albeit told more competently.
