Asking a Metal Gear fan to pick his or her favorite Solid sucks. To many, these titles are more than just games. Raiden, Snake and Big Boss are personal friends -- characters that have helped some players through troublesome times and created cherished memories of blowing off class to master close-quarters combat. Do you pick Sons of Liberty for its silky gameplay, Snake Eater for its masterful boss fights or Peace Walker for its touching story? If having to make a choice feels like picking a favorite kid, then the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection is a cowardly -- and awesome -- way out.
