The Full Story of Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops - The Game You Sat On



The placement of Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops in the official Metal Gear canon has been a point of contention for some time. In the lead-up to the game’s launch and even some time after it came out, Portable Ops was considered a canonical entry, but eventually, Hideo Kojima changed his mind. As the launch of Peace Walker approached, Kojima declared that Portable Ops was not canon after all- which hasn’t sat well with a lot of fans.

Portable Ops tells a great story, after all, one with crucial connections to other entries and a lot of revelations that lend plenty of weight to major events in the series, so nuking it from the MGS canon wasn’t exactly a popular decision. But then again, with Hideo Kojima himself no longer involved with Metal Gear, maybe Konami will eventually come up with a whole new understanding of what is and isn’t part of the series’ canon.

Whether or not that day ever comes, here, we’re going to talk about the full story of Portable Ops- so strap in, because this is going to be an eventful ride.
