Here we go. Just like the other MGS games, I didn't buy this one on the first day it released. Why? Well, you see MGS3 came out right around Christmas time. So, I got it as a Christmas present, my dad even bought me the cheat book to go along with it! But you know me, I didn't even look at the fucking thing. Hell, I still have it stuffed in a drawer in my room, practically in mint condition. Maybe I'll skim through it one of these days. So, how is the game? Well, I beat Snake Eater probably 3 times. Then, when I bought the Essentials Collection, I beat Subsistance once. I must say, Subsistance is much better. At first, the fully rotational camera will trip you

out, and will take a few hours to get used to. Once you do get used to it though, be prepared to have some fun! MGS3 starts out really slow. Mainly because of all the forced dialoge you have to sit through, and you really dont have any weapons at the start. But the game just gets better and better the further on you play. The last half of the game is where this one really shines, and MAN is it fun! Also, unlike past MGS games, this game impliments Camoflauge. Yet again, it seems wrong at first, but soon enough it becomes second nature and a much needed part for survival on your mission.
That's all I'm going to say about this one because I dont want to spoil any of the plotline. Ah, what the hell! You have to stop terrorists from launching a nuke! But isn't that what all MGS games are about? Yes, yes it is. After playing through Subsistance I came to decide that I do love MGS3 more than the first MGS, but not as much as MGS2. I dont know what it is, but MGS2 really pushes my happy buttons =).

My small oppinions about the game

Because of the end, where you have to help her. I guess I hate Eva the most.
Hardest Boss
Tranquilizing Volgin is tough dudes.
Approximate Complete Time
14-18hrs.
Things You Should Know
Use the Tranquilizer gun to kill the bosses instead of real guns. When you do this, you get a new Camo suit for every boss you kill.
Final Score
10/10
Why a 10/10?
Well, it's Metal Gear Solid 3. What did you expect?
