Notable tracks on this disc include: "Old Snake" : The iconic main theme composed by Harry Gregson-Williams. "Love Theme" : Composed by Nobuko Toda with lyrics by Hideo Kojima. "Metal Gear Saga"

The game also introduced a new radar system, known as the "Squad Radios" feature, which enabled players to monitor the movements and conversations of their allies and enemies. This feature added a new layer of strategy to the gameplay, allowing players to plan and execute stealthy maneuvers more effectively.

"Find something to believe in. And find it for yourself."
