For all intents and purposes, Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes was a brief introduction to the gameplay mechanics, graphical upgrades, and narrative threads that 2015's Phantom Pain would later develop upon. The main storyline is little more than one hour of content, and the smattering of other missions make the release slightly more palatable, with one standing out from the crowd.

Deja Vu beings back so many memories to players who are familiar with 1998's Metal Gear Solid. The mission was exclusive to PlayStation on release, and once unlocked, puts players back in the shoes of Solid Snake as he was in the original PS1 classic, once they complete the main story and answer a tough quiz based on the series' history.

It's a typically elaborate approach from mastermind Hideo Kojima, and Snake in all his low-res glory becomes available to the player, not only in Ground Zeroes, but when you transfer save data to Metal Gear Solid: The Phantom Pain, meaning even more time can be spent in he costume.

Many will reminisce about the series' beginnings with rose-tinted spectacles, and switch to the classic snake suit, never looking back.
