Metal Gear Solid was ground breaking in its use of spoken dialogue, an intricate if somewhat obtuse plot, and cinematic presentation. The availability of 3D graphics and the extensive storage capacity of the CD-ROM format compared to what the Metal Gear team had to work with in 1987 and 1990 made it possible to render a more complete vision of Metal Gear's classic Tactical Espionage Action than the previous games for the NES and MSX.

The game was released in the last week of December in Asia, with a March 2005 date scheduled for the rest of the world. The online component, originally intended, was removed for the Asian release and it is unclear whether the feature will be available for the RotW release (Sony has not publically stated either way).
