This was a very difficult choice to make, but Metal Gear Solid Integral for PlayStation 1 is, as of this writing, the Definitive Version of Metal Gear Solid. It stays as true to from as possible while adding bonus options and additional content.

If the Master Collection version of Integral receives an update to its resolution and framerate preferences it's worth making a case even though it has some minor censorship and audio flaws.
