"Two works of art in one: a great action game and a bizarre masterpiece of a movie, separate works taking turns in creating a unique hybrid experience. It works because neither is subordinate to the other: the movie isn’t a half-assed attempt to tack a narrative onto the game, and the game isn’t a half-assed stab at making the movie "interactive." It’s not "like playing a movie"… it’s like playing Metal Gear Solid, and there’s nothing else like it."
