Let's be honest. As a game, MGS3 is not good. Maybe it's its age. In fact, they simply do not make games like this anymore. And that's a shame. Because in spite of its clunkiness as a game, it still manages to be a fun experience. Not just because its cinematic qualities make for a fun ride, but because it uses the videogame medium in a compelling way. I think anyone interested in videogames should check it out. It's definitely one of the best and unique games of its era, at least.

I want to note that I think one of the reasons it (namely, Subsistence) was so highly reviewed at the time was because of its value. Not only did include extra content and game modes, but an online mode, and the inclusion of the first two Metal Gear games---all at a reduced price.
