Metal Gear Solid 3 ending *Spoilers*
 

Ok, so I just beat MGS 3, and the ending was incredibly powerful. Absolutly fantastic, and the story as a whole was better than MGS2. (Which is vastly underrated, IMO.) I am rarely, if ever moved, by a videogame's story, but it just stuck with me days after I beat it.

So, discuss the greatness that is MGS 3, or the metal gear series as a whole.

It's strange, I never really bothered with MGS1, but loved MGS2 and I couldn't really get into MGS3 :-\

The ending of MSG 3 also moved me. Days later I was still replaying it in my head. It was the most powerful moment in a game I ever seen. But the ladder climb (if you played the game you know the one I am talking about) is still my favorite part of the game.

The whole MGS series is the goods, but yeah, 3's the best.

That boss battle with The End? Awesome.

I just started playing this. Have had it for a while now. Friggin hard. I loved MGS 1, never played 2.

This first mission in the jungle is hard shit. :mad:

Really great game, one of the best ever. If they do ever do a MGS movie, I would hope that they'd base at least the first one on MGS 3 (as that's the earliest in the series timeline-wise anyway).

MGS is indeed the goods.

I haven't played 3 in a while now, because it's at my parents home.

But from what i have seen and played, it's far better then part 1 and 2.

I really liked 1 and enjoyed 2, but i liked 3 much better then both parts combined from what i have played and i can't wait untill part 4 :love:

MGS4 is one of the major factors of me getting the PS3.

I know exactly what you mean.

The transition of the first two to 3 is tough. I wasn't into it at first either.

STICK WITH IT

It gets amazing.

At first I wasn't too keen on MSG 3 mainly cause I prefer using the D-pad instead of the analogue stick but after a while you realise that the game is greatness. The whole scene when you are in the bike, getting chased by the big tank thing (can't think of the name) is just awesome.

PS Ocelot rules. Ever since I played that game I have found myself doing the Ocelot pose.

I haven't been able to get into it for a few reasons. Dunno why.

One big thing though, is that I know there's a lot of snakes in that game (aside from THE Snake, of course. :p). Don't ask why, but that gives me the creeps. I've considered buying MGS 3 SO many times, since I know it'll undoubtably be great, but seeing the snakes in the strategy guide gave me the creeps somewhat. Same thing in RE 4. I got so freaking creeped out every time I went up to a barrel, since the first time I saw a snake, I was REALLY surprised, to say the least.

But I know undoubtably that this game is great. Just have to get over my little creeped out spell before I get into it. But someone tell me, and this will certainly sound weird: How exactly do the snakes behave on there? Jumping out at you, hiding from you and striking, what? Never really been bothered by "jump" scares in games (although RE 4 freaked me out quite a bit in parts), but I'm really weary of this.

I haven't played MGS3 in a while so don't quote me on this, but I don't recall any snakes attacking me in the game, certainly nothing that shocked me.

The Oven Man in RE4, tho...That's another story. :nono:

Oven Man...God, I remember that. Freaked me out a bit, but the Regenerators freaked me out a bit worse.

But as for the snake thing, really? You don't recall any at all?

I know that sounds horribly stupid on my part, but it's just a little tick. Kind of freaked out about it. After reading about this though, I think I'm gonna go pick up MGS 3 on Monday, and pick up Substenence next month when it comes out, since it has all three of the MGS games.

But if anyone can clear up how those damned snakes act in this game (hissing, jumping, etc? What can I expect?), I'd appreciate it. I could've sworn I saw several different kinds in the strategy guide. Some were poisonous, some were bright colors, etc, etc., if I remember right.

I had mgs3 for a while, and sorta played it a bit, got stuck half way through, anyways i was bored one tuesday on my day off work, played it 7hrs straight and got to the end, and after i saw the ending it was like woah. The ending was brilliant like previously stated above, it really stuck with me for a few days afterwards.

Basically no. If you hang around them too long they will, but you'll have plenty of time to kill them before they act up.

I have to beat the game again damnit. To get the invis camo. Plus, I need to see...

****Spoilers***





I need to see where they show Ocelot in the White House seen damn it.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Just keep your finger on R1 during the White House Scene.

Yep, MGS3 rocked, and I feel it was the best MGS, best story and great twist at the end. The ending rocked.

It's my favorite game series. I loved every single game even the 8-bit nes games.

Okay, so like, after hearing about the snake behavior (and yeah, I DO feel stupid asking about something so insignificant, but I was creeped. What can I say? :p), and hearing that they only lay on the ground, I'm gonna go get this tomorrow. I know it has a kickass story, and amazing characters.

So on the note of characters, I want to share this with you all.

Yes, be shocked.

I couldn't stand the gameplay of MGS3, but I downloaded a save with the invisible cammo and ran through the parts I didn't like. I played all of the boss (not just The Boss) fights though. Anyway, that's not the point. This game has one of the best stories I've ever seen in a game. Like you guys said, the ending stuck with me for a few days. I wish I could piece together all the movies/cutscenes and the significant fights into something I could sit and watch again.

I've been playing MGS3 for the first time lately, and I'm stuck in the part of Groznyj Grad where Snake has to disguise himself as a scientist to mug Raikenov (I love all the shots they take at Raiden for that scene, by the way). For some reason, even when I'm disguised and don't have face-paint on, the guards still instantly recognize me as an enemy. It sucks that I got bogged down in a part so frustrating, because up till that point I was having a blast.

Given that I won't be able to beat the game any time soon (I borrowed it from a friend who's moving away tomorrow), would anyone care to tell me how it ends?

Do you have your gun equipped?

Here's a link to the game script, Nowhere Man. You can find the ending in there.

Nope. You can't equip guns when you're in the scientist outfit anyway, just the chloroform rag and the cig spray.

Many thanks, my good man.

So I finally beat the Virtuous mission. I took out all the guards on the way to rescuing the scientist even though I was supposed to use stealth. Ah well.

Now The Boss turned heel and I fell off a bridge. Splendid.

Watched all of them a few weeks ago. Man oh man is MGS2 LONG. No fights btw just the cutscenes and key convos.

Para-Medic: Are you smoking a cigarette?

Snake: Nope.

Para-Medic: Yes you are.

Snake: It's not a cigarette, it's a cigar.

Para-Medic: Same thing.

Snake: Not at all. In fact, there's a world of difference. There's nothing
quite like the rich smell and mellow flavor of a cigar. And that thick,
luxurious smoke is almost sensual when it...

Para-Medic: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Whatever. You know something?

Snake: Probably not, but I don't want to hear it.

MGS3 had great convos.

SIGINT: Snake, what's going on, why you naked? It gives you know tactical advantage whatsoever, in fact, there are no advantages to being naked.

SNAKE: Sure there are.

SIGINT: Like what?

SNAKE: It feels good...

--------------------------------------------------------

BOSS: Jack, what the hell are you wearing???

SNAKE: It's a tuxedo, don't you like it?

BOSS: [YELLS AT HIM LIKE CRAZY]

SNAKE: ...I thought you'd like it...

----------------------------

lol.

The Sniper mission in MGS3 is my favorite mission of any RPG game or shooter game ever. It was just intense, it took me 3 hours to beat when I finally beat it

Just picked this up a few minutes ago.


I extracted Sokolov and was attacked by the bees/hornets on the bridge. That's as far as I am to this point. Awesome so far.

Goddamnit, now I wanna play this again. :mad:

GONNA LOOK FOR A CHEAP COPY THIS WEEK!!!

Or should I wait for Subsistence?

Honestly I hated the game play.

IMO there's WAAAAY too much jungle stuff and the radar pissed me off.

Yes the storyline was great, but IMO the best overall game is still MGS 1 as Raiden is a fag

I'm at The Pain/Bee dude,. WHat's the easiest way to take him out? Whatshisface said to huck nades at him to get rid of the bees and then shoot, but that seems really tedious, especially with having to go in the water to dodge the bees.

I just fought Ocelot and now another boss. You don't have a boss battle for like 45 min then 2 in a row. I need time to mentally prepare for another one! :mad:

Easiest way to get rid of the bees around The Pain is a couple of shotgun blasts.

You're going to have to dive into the water a few times during the fight no matter what.

Yeah I took of him. Now I'm right in front of the compound where Sokolov is I think. I believe I'm supposed to bust out my scientist outfit soon. Just passed through a forest with a bunch of traps but didn't set any off. :cool:

The Fear looks like he's gonna be a real pain to kill when I get there. Jumpin around and shit.

The Fear was actually the easiest one, if you have the right equipment.

You think The Fear's tough, wait'll you meet The End :)

Make sure you've got about an hour to kill...

... or a week, heh. :shifty:
