I think this game is going to be fantastic i'm a big fan of the metal gears. I think the storylines are fantastic and i have heard this one is going to be extraordinary with a good twist. On this game you can climb trees use stealth more advanced than ever. Also you can shoot from the water and eat snakes and even put a crocodile head on your head to scare the guards. i have heard its set in 1960,s with 1960's weapons and flamethrowers. i can' wait for this to come out because it is going to be the best game ever.

this game rocks hard

Damn it....damn you KOJIMA! Why are you doing this to us, from the half hour worth of MGS3 trailers you've released and all the press releases I know your game. It makes perfect sense now...there are only two possibilities, and I hate you forever for it. Sure I'll buy the game and play the hell out of them, but its a love hate with this, I'm not questioning how good the game is, I'm questioning how much it will hurt my brain...I MEAN WHAT THE FRICK IS RAIDEN DOING IN THE 60's! As I said one of two possibilities, 1. Its a VR mission being played by solid and it has gone awry. 2. Raiden is Quantum Leap...I hate time travel...

DAMMIT,WHY DID I LEND IT TO HIM??!!

This MGS3 is a good game,but dammit a day after i got i was talked into lending it to a friend on friday(2nd/December/05) while i was left at the weekend to complete the war-military-shooter game,ShellShock:Nam `67 which i bought with MGS3.He claims to have beaten it.guys is the last boss battle with "The Sorrow",cause he has beaten her,and dammit if he has, he who is just lending it has beaten it before me-THE OWNER!-imagine that, lending a game to someone when it is new to you-and this person beats(IF he has) it before you-it may not annoy you but it danm annoys me.
not only that he has ruined the game as he was supposed to be doing a perminant game swap with our other friend for WORMS 3D.
We are still friends and all that he is giving me back the game tommorow(If he does not forget),and another thing is on the MGS 3-WORMS 3D trade i am gouing downtown to GAMESTATION gameshop(I am in England,not USA the reason i review on the US Amazon is coz the UK Amazon does not have a KID-REVIEW section) as i am tading in ShellShock,he needs C:Desert Storm II traded in for MGS3 so he can trade(C:DSII is an older game but its the same price as MGS3-preowned)MGS3 for WORMS 3D.
While my friend gives me back MGS3:Snake Eater i am giving him Metal Gear Solid 2:Sons Of Liberty a game i have completed 7 times on all difficulties(starting on VERY EASY all the way to EUROPEAN EXTREME HARD) so that game is no loss as it was fun the first FIVE times i finished it,it then started to go boring).

Kojima`s Metal Gear Solid games are NOT games that you finish once and go onto something else,They keep you hooked in action for atleast 3 times when you finish,not only that but other things like hidden extras etc can only be aquired after beating a game,and my friend DOES want to go through the game again-no he is not using my one,he might when he get Loiee`s one(the Ws 3D-MGS3 trader) and i will never make that mistake again-it was because i showed him it and-damn i shouldda left the disc at home he begged me to lend it him.

bye i will post a review on the game when i get it back.

Not what i expected!

Metal gear solid have always been my favorite stealth action games.
Unfortunately konami did to much for this game that amature gamer will have a hard time beating this game. Trust me when i say this game is hard, and if you don't believe me, here is a couple of senario. Imagine being drop down into a cave where everything is pitch dark and you have to find your way out? Do you sort of get the idea? Now here another senario, one of the boss is impossible to beat because the level is huge and this boss is an excellent sniper not to mention well camoflauge. The bullet of his gun does not make a sound and has poison on the tip of it. He see you but you can barely seen him because of the camera in the game. While it is technically the same camera as in son of liberty, it does not suit well in an outdoor environment when you are trying to snipe a sniper. If only the camera and not to mention the control was better would i be able to beat the boss, in fact that battle alone took about 2 hours and yet i only saw him a couple of time, and only got two clear shot. However it take probably at least 11 shot to bring this guy downs. Now if you think you can handle the challenge, then please go ahead, if what i mention to you sort of frustrate you, then please do yourselve a favor and skip on this version of metal gear solid. Though i do like a challenge, this game is way too over challenging, and is probably 3X harder than splinter cell.
Other than time this game still play exactly like son of liberty and any fans who really want to have a challenge should pick this one up. As for me, this game will go in my cabinet and lock up.

The storyline was cool kill volgin, the boss, blowing up a nuke tank launcher, and breaking out sokolove. But i didn't like the stand still to aim and birds eye view. It took time to get used to. The fighting was amazing human shields, slitting throats throwing snakes on people and all that stuff. Buy this game.

An incredible achievement

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is an intense and memorable experience with an interesting yet somewhat complex storyline, tons of cool gameplay and some of the best graphics ever seen on the PS2. It's easily one of the best overall games out on the PS2, and if you don't have it already, it's definitely worth getting.

The Metal Gear Solid series is one of the most popular series of games, and it deserves all of its praise. The best part of MGS is easily the storyline. Some people play MGS for the storyline alone. MGS's storyline is one of the most complex storylines in gaming, if not the most. It's just packed with so many interesting plot twists and unexpected moments. Metal Gear Solid 3 maintains MGS's awesome storyline with new characters, breathtaking boss battles and dramatic confrontations.

Metal Gear Solid 3 is a whole lot of fun to play. It's a stealth game, but I've found that it's significantly easier to shoot enemy soldiers than in Metal Gear Solid 2. Backup teams are quite limited, even on the Hard and Extreme game modes. Anyway, half the game is playing and half the game is watching radio conversations and cutscenes (since the game has a great story). The cutscenes and radio conversations are very interesting, plus they're interactive so you won't just watch and not play.

Other than that, the gameplay is pretty much the same as previous MGS games, but with a new survival feel. If you've never played an MGS game before, the gameplay pretty much involves the player infiltrating the enemy base with lots of items, weapons and the ability to remain undetected. Lots of the moves from previous MGS games are intact, such as breaking necks, flipping off railings, holding up enemy soldiers for items and hiding corpses in lockers. There's a hell of a lot of new stuff though.

When you start off playing Metal Gear Solid 3, you'll notice the new jungle setting. MGS isn't mostly interior buildings anymore. You'll have to learn to survive in the jungle in order to complete your mission. I think the survival feeling was done exceptionally well.

One big innovation in MGS3 is the use of camouflage. Snake (the main character) can choose from a variety of face paints and uniforms to blend in with his surroundings. The game also encourages you to crawl more and move slowly. It gives the game a slower pace but really adds to the survival feel.

Snake will also have to eat to maintain a high stamina gauge (which affects Snake's actions). You'll have to hunt for food and capture them dead or alive. Dead food spoils over time, but spoiled food can be used as a distraction when thrown at hungry soldiers.

Another cool aspect adding to the survival feel is how Snake must cure himself using medicine and surgery whenever he's seriously injured. You'll find many medical supplies during your mission, and if you get a burn, a gunshot wound, a leech or something, you'll have to treat it using kits and bandages to stay in good shape. Although curing yourself adds to the atmosphere, it gets annoying and interrupts the pacing at times.

Even though there's a lot of survival elements, MGS3 will surely appeal to long time fans of the MGS series as well as those new to the series. The traditional gameplay is here. The storyline, the expertly directed cutscenes and the item boxes are all still here. MGS3 truly feels like an MGS game.

The graphics in MGS3 are amazing. They won't shock you like MGS2's did, but they are an improvement and look absolutely gorgeous. The jungle looks very believable, and the ambient sound adds to the effect. The individual blades of grass are very nice, and the character models are also very detailed. The entire game looks great; the characters' movements are very lifelike. As I said earlier, these are some of the best graphics ever seen on the PS2.

The sound is great. The music is very well done, especially in boss battles and cutscenes. There isn't much music during regular gameplay, but the jungle sounds are quite cool.

MGS3 will last for a very long time. It's got five different difficulty modes with one that likely suits your skill (from Very Easy to Extreme). There are endless amounts of cool easter eggs to find, just like any MGS game. There are secrets and unlockables that will keep you coming back to the game, including stealth camouflage, infinity face paint and more. There are a huge amount of rankings as well. There's definitely a lot to come back for after finishing the game's 15-25 hour experience your first time.

In the end, Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is simply phenomenal. Its storyline will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end. Its gameplay is brilliant. The survival feeling is done extremely well. Its graphics are some of the best ever on PS2. The game will last a while and stay in your memory forever. If you haven't experienced Metal Gear Solid 3, do yourself a favor and do so.
