Sure, it's not an RPG, but Konami's Metal Gear Solid IS a classic. And on this special holiday season of Square Roots we venture with Snake to Alaska, pretty close to where Santa lives. We try to make sense of the metal gear lore, talk about neuropeptides like we know what they mean, and Vanessa writes in an analysis of Meryl's big acting scene. Also this week: - Trashing the PS Classic - Twin Snakes Versus The Original - Has Kojima Ever Talked To A Woman? - Those Legs Are Connected To A Butt - "Nanomachines" - Boomer Tigersoft This Week: We finish Disc 1!
