 =====Big Boss PS2/HDC Route=====
+Big Boss can be played on the PS2 port of Metal Gear (1987) which was included on disc 2 of Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence. Additionally, it is playable on PSTV/PS Vita, and modern consoles that can play the HD collection version of Metal Gear Solid 3. The game is also available on PC via a release on GOG.
 The goal is to beat the game as fast as possible while having the "Big Boss" rank on the final score screen.
