Professional reviews from gaming critics
That is it for Metal Gear Solid Delta, though, and this puts us in something of a conundrum. On the one hand, we’re talking about the game that is to Kojima what Dr. Strangelove is to Stanley Kubrick (i.e. the masterpiece in a resume that basically has no misses).

Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater wants to have its cake and eat it too by remaining incredibly faithful to the original while also updating some key aspects like the controls and visuals. To die-hard fans of the PS2 classic, this is less of a definitive remake of the game and more just another way to play a fantastic game. Newcomers are certainly in for a treat, however, as Δ smooths over the original’s rougher edges for a more modern experience. It loses a lot in the translation, like som...
With Snake Eater Kojima has found his way back into many people's affections, so we should congratulate and praise him and his team, so that they know that they are now making just the right moves.
