Story and late-game spoilers.
Original Metal Gear Solid campaign. Not The Twin Snakes. Konami’s Master Collection manual is used for shared mechanics; button mappings vary.

Item directory
Weapons and gadgets
Track equipment by where it becomes accessible and what security access is required. Revisit a room with the appropriate card instead of assuming an earlier locked door is decorative.
Supplies and storage
Rations and ammunition are practical supplies, not permanent completion tokens. Keep a useful reserve before boss encounters rather than collecting only to fill an inventory bar.
Special unlockables
Ending-related rewards can encourage another playthrough. These belong to the game’s unlockables, not a native PlayStation trophy list; later collections have their own separate achievements.
Quick notes
- Inventory discovery is not a score hunt. Metal Gear Solid has no single percentage that measures every interesting discovery.
- Record the edition when revisiting unlocks. Completion rewards and later challenge options depend on the version and the ending route.
