I know its a bit late, but i never had a ps2, and after that skipped on 3 untill few days ago when i got an used ps3 with plenty of games.

I love how much MGS3 is over the top, with Ocelot meowing and such, but man do i miss crouch sneaking and over the shoulder aiming from MGS4

The only version of MGS3 to have crouch walking was the 3DS version. The pressure sensitivity on PS2/3 was to control whether you'd aim/shoot, and hold someone/cut their throat. You could walk quietly by using the dpad

I got it with legacy collection with mgs4, i dont know if that is subsistence version. Anyway, camera is 3d likecin mgs4, but after getting used to 4 and V i have so much trouble aiming, grenades are useless to me haha. I know there is an autoaim button but it just makes snake go berzerk trying to lock on like mad

MGS3 is such an experience, enjoy it! It's remarkable how much depth got crammed in to the MGS games, even just in the codec calls alone.

3 is my favourite game in the series. I absolutely hated how it started when I first played through, but once it got going and I got the hang of some of the mechanics, it just clicked. The story is great, the bosses are interesting, the setting is cool. It just hits all the right notes.

MSG3 is practically a bond movie turned into a video game and i love it

It's bloody beautiful and imo is the best of the best.

Agreed, but I would honestly give an honorable mention to the Gamecube remake of the original (The Twin Snakes)

Used PS3 is really a great system right now, most of them can be soft modded to play ps1-3 games, and you can install any size sata drive you want! I have a ps2 but the upscaling isn’t as good as having a system that has hdmi on it and upscales itself.

Best story of the series. Please update when you finish!

@skele_tron any update on progress? I'm excited to hear your thoughts, haha.
