Story:Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is the prequel to the entire Metal Gear series. Most of the series' defining gameplay elements have been carried over and as before, Snake must use stealth and wits rather than brute force to infiltrate enemy zones and eliminate his major adversaries. Unlike the previous games, this installment takes place in a large outdoor jungle. Snake is able to use camouflage, climb trees, hide in tall grass or wear clothes that make him less noticeable.Show more

Metal Gear Solid 3 is the best in the series in terms of replayability and mechanics. I find it odd that they could port the base ps2 version to GOG (there is no PC version for this game unlike MGS2 which was previously on GOG) but that would be the best thing this store could ever do. Really hope Konami wakes up and bring the entire series on this platform with enhanced graphics and other cool stuff.

Chronologically the oldest Metal Gear game as it is an origin story for Big Boss, setting up the Metal Gear universe that Solid Snake works in. The upcoming Konami remake, Metal Gear Solid Delta, is created around this game, but without collaboration from it's ousted original creator, Hideo Kojima, so expect an alternate universe there.

Metal Gear Solid 3 always been my favorite Metal Gear game. From start to finish a truly fantastic game. Easily one of the best stealth games I ever played!!! This is a vastly different beast from other Metal Gear games. You get a greater in depth survival mechanics. The cut scenes combined makes a really great movie. You also get plenty of surprises. Such as changing your console time to cause The End to die of old age. You get a great variety of weapons as well as outfits. Each location you really wanna explore. You get such iconic characters you can't get get enough of. This was the first major event within the Metal Gear time line. A lot of older characters had their stories expanded more. You also can be creative to get around many situations. The audio as a whole is truly fantastic work. You get an experience you never forget. Metal Gear Solid 3 was a huge step up from the previous Metal Gear games. In all honestly, it's the absolute perfect stealth game. It's mind blowing how insane the game holds up so amazingly well all these years. I even considered this among the greatest Konami games ever!!! You get a surprising level of depth in everything. I do think this would be a huge seller on GOG.
If this game wins automatically, I'm going HD textures, this game will mark me for the rest of my life.
Para mim um dos melhores jogos de todos os tempos e sem duvidas o melhor em termos gráficos junto com shadow of the colossus. Até por que eles fora inicialmente projetados para ps3.
Why Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (OG) Should Be on GOG Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is a stealth-action masterpiece and a cornerstone of gaming history. With its Cold War setting, emotional story, and survival-based gameplay, it remains one of the most beloved entries in the series. While modern remasters exist, fans still crave the original version—untouched, as it was first released. Unfortunately, the OG Snake Eater isn’t available digitally for PC, leaving many unable to experience it. That’s where GOG comes in. GOG’s commitment to DRM-free access and game preservation makes it the perfect home for the original MGS3. Players could finally own it legally, run it smoothly on modern systems, and relive (or discover) a true classic. With Metal Gear Solid Delta on the way, the time is right. Bring the legendary original Snake Eater to GOG—because great games should never be lost.
Just to make sure you know, GOG, all the votes for this game are votes for the Subsistence release. It is the most content-complete version of the game with the updated (but not replaced) camera, and additional content, while retaining the Guy Savage sequence which subsequent re-releases like the HD/Legacy/Master collections did not, but unfortunately the votes for that version are sitting far lower. We still have never gotten a feature-complete re-release of Subsistence.
Now this is the game of all time. Another one just sort of offhandedly given to me by a friend who'd finished it, this was my first MGS game and it changed my life. To this day, I annoy my friends by suddenly spouting off MGS lore or trying to find some way to make them listen to the Snake Eater track (that song goes hard). This game is truly iconic in a series of iconic games - who else remembers saving during the fight with The End to change your PS2 clock to [SPOILER] kill him via old age? No one is doing it like MGS3 and no one has done it since.
