a5c7b9f00b In 1963 Naked Snake, soon to be Big Boss and father a Solid Snake, infiltrates the Russian jungle to extract a Russian weapons specialist. The mission turns into a catastrophic failure when Snake's former mentor, The Boss, defects to Russia and sets a nuke. Now alone and defenseless Snake must stop The Boss and her squad of crack special ops from unleashing nuclear war! In 1964, a U.S. government operative codenamed "Snake" must infiltrate mountainous Soviet territory to rescue a scientist building a weapon of terrible power. metal gear solid 3 is by far the best metal gear solid for these reasons.<br/><br/>1 you've got to camouflage yourself to blend in 2 you've got to eat food to help your performance 3 you actually suffer from recoil on this game and the silencers where off after a couple of rounds. i could go on but it would ruin the entire game completely metal gear 3 is also just like watching a movie there are times when for a good 20 minutes the equivalent to a simpsons episode you are just watching a cut scene. this game surpasses the second mainly cause you play snake not raiden (however doesn't mean to say he doesn't play a role) however this isn't for the devil may cry kind of person patience and stealth is the key. this game is an example of why games are better than movies it's more movie than action in my opinion if you do know your way round. I've given it 10 out of 10 because its one of a few games i wont be giving back to the shop. this game is a bit like the movie saw you don't't understand what the hell is going on until the very end during the debriefing when all is revealed and believe me its what u least suspect. This is favorite MGS game! The story is amazing, and manages to build on what was established in the prior game, set the sequel up for a thrilling conclusion while simultaneously being a fresh and unfamiliar narrative. I love sneaking around in urban settings of past games, but the jungles of 1960's Russia are a refreshing alternative that adds a new dimension to the conflict at hand. Not only is it you versus enemy soldiers and armed vehicles, but it's also you versus nature. The gameplay is as good, varied, and balanced as it gets in the series. CQC and interrogating guards never get old, and the hunting aspect provides a fresh new challenge. The Boss fights are among the most entertaining in the series, and the fight with The End is one of the best in any series ever. Capable of dislocating his joints at will, he is able to crawl, walk on water, flip, leap extremely quickly in the manner of a spider, and also climb and jump around in trees with ease. He mainly uses a crossbow in battle, coating his bolts in the venom of the Brazilian wandering spider, setting them on fire or even outfitting them with explosives.<br/><br/>The End - is a member of the Cobra unit with exceptional sniping skills, born in the early 1860s, and the only member of the Cobra unit without an emotion-based codename, though it is explained in the game that it signifies "true oblivion." The End can also become "one" with the environment, flora and fauna included. He apparently can summon the spirits of the "holy forest" he waits in to revive his stamina through directed sunlight.<br/><br/>The Fury - is a member of the Cobra unit and he is a pyromaniac and former Soviet cosmonaut. He utilizes a flame-resistant Soviet space suit in conjunction with a jet pack and a powerful flamethrower, both of which are powered by liquid rocket fuel UDMH. His codename reflects the unmitigated fury he feels towards the world while he is fighting.<br/><br/>The Sorrow - is a former member of the Cobra unit who was a powerful spirit medium and he uses his psychic powers to aid his fellow soldiers on the battlefield. He was romantically involved with The Boss and is revealed in the course of the game to be the father of her child Ocelot. After the ideological rift created by the Cold War loyalties changed with he and The Boss each taking their respective sides. Later, he sacrificed himself for The Boss when they met on a battlefield, via a bullet through his left eye, after the Cobra unit disbanded. He makes many hidden appearances (in ghost form) throughout the game's cut scenes. His skeleton can also be seen in first-person view near the end of the Virtuous Mission following the confrontation between Snake and The Boss.<br/><br/>The Boss (a.k.a. The Joy) is a legendary American soldier, founder and leader of the Cobra unit, and is known as the mother of the U.S. special forces. She was born in 1922 and is the daughter of one of the original members of the Philosophers behind the Philosophers' Legacy. She is known in Russia as Voyevoda, literally meaning The Warlord. In June 1944, during World War II, she led the Cobra unit to victory at the Battle of Normandy. She was pregnant at the time with a baby fathered by The Sorrow. The Boss gave birth to a baby boy on the battlefield via a messy caesarian section that left her with a long, snaking scar across her abdomen. The baby was taken by the Philosophers and would later grow up to be Revolver Ocelot. Kuwabara is a phrase used in the Japanese language to ward off lightning. This is why Colonel Volgin says it every time it rains. Oddly enough, he does not say it before getting struck by a bolt of lightning, causing his death.At first, he is talking to the head of the KGB. But after that call, he talks to the CIA Director, revealing that he was a spy for the Americans.
