The suspect Metal Gear Solid Touch game for the iPhone and iPod touch hits the itunes store on Thursday, March 19th. I say suspect because while this is a Metal Gear game, it is essentially an on-rails spin through the story of MGS4. Interesting indeed. No price is given, but I would guess $9.99. I am a little unsure about the game, but I am interested. Let me know how it is.

Metal Gear Solid Touch for the iPhone and iPod Touch will be available for purchase on March 19, 2009. Featuring original gameplay, characters and settings from the critically-acclaimed Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots for the PS3, Metal Gear Solid Touch is the latest creation from the Metal Gear series, whose total worldwide sales have exceeded 26.5 million units.  
 
In Metal Gear Solid Touch, players can move a targeting sight and also switch to a sniper scope by manipulating the touch panel screen with their fingers. The game utilizes intuitive controls, making it easily enjoyable for anyone. There are 12 stages available at the start of the distribution and the locations and featured characters for each stage are based on the story of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. Stay tuned for more announcements on additional stages following launch.
 
Points are awarded upon completion of a stage and players can use the points that they have collected to obtain Metal Gear series wallpapers.
