The definitive metal gear experience for me, this game refined the gameplay of 1 and 2 adding mechanics that feel as though they were necessary from the beginning such as the excellent cqc system and the first person aiming from mgs2. Mgs3 is a great addition to the mgs plot and its internal story has the cheesy metal gear solid plot formula with a few twists and a more down to earth and sentimental message than metal gear solid 2. It's setting is stellar and it's main theme godlike definitely worth a play. Other than a few areas that feel tedious and controls that aren't quite perfect this game is a fantastic stealth game and ahead of its time on the ps2.
