 Same Old But A Bit Tedious, December 18, 2008
|
|
|
The first Metal Gear Solid was revolutionary. The second Sons of Liberty was a cinematic experience coupled with excellent gameplay. Snake Eater, however, is much of the same but gets a little tedious. You will do much of the same, except the tedious part is that you have to keep eating to maintain your health, and you have to heal certain wounds. These elements made the game somewhat more "real" at first, but ended up being quite tedious and unnecessary as the game progresses. Towards the end, I found the gaming experience to be more of a chore than a giddy action experience. Play this game if you love Metal Gear and want more scenarios to exercise your Metal Gear maneuvaribility, but otherwise, just replay Solid or Sons of Liberty in more advanced modes.

 One of the finest on PS2, and the "beginning" of a superb series!, October 30, 2008

I'm not very good at reviewing, but I've gotta say, this is one of the best games I've ever played on the PS2. It's absorbing and emotional all the way to the end. I played MGS2 SOL a few years ago and enjoyed that a lot, but Snake Eater made the character Snake shine, and his arch nemesis Ocelot. The cinematics and music score were awesome in their execution, and for this particular game, the cinematics really draw the gamer in. I think I just might play MGS2 all over again since Snake is now my favorite virtual hero. A+++++

Yeah I know, it's called "Metal Gear Solid THREE" but it's actually the first story of the ENTIRE Metal Gear Series - you play as Naked Snake who is actually Big Boss, the father of Liquid, Solid, and Solidus Snake. But he looks JUST like Solid Snake and even has his voice.
Gameplay is very-slightly different with the addition of "Close Quarters Combat" which adds depth into fighting rather than the throwing/punch-punch-kick from the first MGs. There's no radar in this game, which gives it a more realistic feel having the player rely on different uniforms of camo and face paint along with motion detectors and sensors to avoid being caught by guards. There's also a stamina bar which can be replenished by eating animals and plants you take down (the stamina bar is basically energy - calories and as it decreases, Snake will not be as physically "in shape" (harder time moving, difficulty to aim a gun - because he's hungry!). Typical Alert-Evasion modes are still present, but I have to say there are parts in the game where it can be rather difficult to get out of Alert mode, but when that happens I just run the whole way through to get to the next destination. Controls are the same for the most part but you're forced to use the analog stick to run, and grabbing enemies is the O button which is the CQC button. Metal Gear veterans will definitely enjoy this game, I personally like it the best out of the first 3 MGS (can't judge with the 4th yet as I'm still playing it on the PS3). After a week or so I've already beaten it 5 times!
Personally I say don't play it on "Very Easy" because it's amazingly easy and there's almost no challenge with the "EZ Gun." I suggest MGS veterans start playing it on normal mode.
Story-wise, I loved this story better than the previous Metal Gear titles , it's a bit more real-ish (it takes place in 1964 during the Cold War), and has less of that philosophical babble and convoluted dialog from Metal Gear Solid 2, and has a simpler storyline perhaps easier to understand than the first Metal Gear Solid.
Overall, I give this game 5 stars, an A+, 100%, whatever - just to me it's an excellent game, and Metal Gear fans are bound to like this one and I give a "Highly Recommended" to Metal Gear Solid 3.

Metal Gear Solid 3, May 6, 2008

Metal Gear Solid 1 and 2 were amazing games with basically the same scenory but amazing scenes that were well done with a dramatic touch and great voice acting. Snake Eater takes the gameplay to a whole new level with a change of scenory to more of a jungle feel. If you enjoyed the first two games, then you will definately enjoy this game.
