Snake Eater has just shifted my expectations of games.

I just finished Snake Eater last night (yes I know, late to the party) but it was such an amazing game, I figured I should make a post about it. I have never shed a tear in a game before, but last night I did. It was a single tear, yes, but I still cried. Make fun of me at your own will, but it's just a testament to how powerful the ending to that game was.

After seeing that I have to wonder, how many other games will do that to me? I now feel like every game I play I will want to leave with the same feeling as I did when I turned off Snake Eater. The answer is simple: Guns of the Patriots. Playing Snake Eater made me realize that the only game that will make me feel like that again will be MGS4. I am officially craving the final chapter of MGS. :)

So, who else cried? :D

it was the weakest installment for me and no i didnt cry..

over a video game indeed...

I didnt cry, but I loved that game. I dont know why there are people who disliked MGS3, I thought it was amazingly well done and the story was just fantastic. I love my MGS but MGS3 is my favorite.

I agree, snake eater was crap compare to the original MGS or even SOL. bmanva

Y?

MGS3 is not crap if your a fan of the series you would like snake eater.

the story was amazing

but the gameplay felt like a step backwards to me .. i guess it was meant to, considering it's a prequel to the other MGSs

things like limited silencers, and battery power, and so much jungle started to irritate me a bit

MGS 3 Subsistance really was an amazing game. It was solid in every aspect. I don't know about the other games in the series (other than Portable Ops.) though. MGS 3 Subsistance was an extremely high quality games, Kojima doesn't mess around.Wasdie

yes Subsistence was definitely a rebound for the series. Far better boss fights than MGS2. The new camera made it 10x better and the controls weren't as bad.

In the MGS series it goes..MGS>MGS3>MGS2. But MGS2 had the most refined gameplay. MEtal Gear Solid 3 was a unique experience, not much to say besides that. YOu won't find another game like a MGS game.

yeah snake eater was a good game, made up for the craptastic sons of liberty if it would have stayed only snake it would have been alot better.mlbslugger86

Yeah I found sons of liberty kind of dull. It was a great game, but it was alittle overrated to me.

The controls were never bad, its clearly a developer decision and gamers would just have to adjust. Similar to RE4 the controls aren't typical for games in that genre.

In the games timeframe...but as far as the best games in the series goes. It is definately better than Metal Gear Solid 2, just not in gameplay.

um yeah, the controls were bad. In MGS2 for example you would have to hold 1 button to keep your gun out, 1 button to keep the current view and then press a third button when you wanted to fire your pistol.

And calling it a "developer decision which gamers have to adjust to" is a retarded statement. Guess what? Developers come up with crappy controls in games all the time. They are not beyond fault simply because its a "developer decision". All control schemes are "developer decisions" anyway.

:| How is that a crappy statement, several of my friends are like RE4 is so stupid you have press O or [] to run.. this is lame. I am just in awe and shock because there only in the village and there complaining about difficulty and blaming it on the controls.

I didn't have a problem with the controls, and i actually though the whole pressure sensitive gun release was a good control decision. The controls really weren't that complicated, and the aiming wasn't too sensitive like in other games. The grappling, wall sliding, rolling,jump out advanced techniques weren't hard to do at all. The only problem was the melee attack lol, CQC is probably one of the best Melee systems in gaming right now.

I cried :( and my mom who was beside me cried too ( i had to explain her the end because she didnt understood all )

It was such an aweosme ending... definaly one of the most unrated games from last gen :(

it was the weakest installment for me and no i didnt cry..

daveg1

wtf? why u wanna be a tought guy? IT is not the videogame that makes you cry, its the story that deserves an osacar that made you cry.... gezzz.. just get out of here

There are a lot of game experiences that just aren't your typical run of the mill stereotype experience.. like COD4, Call of Duty, Dynasty Warriors, Kane and Lycnh, Prince of PErsia.

Well in Call of Duty the music could make you cry, Its so patriotic.

Only real tough men shed tears.. Little boys dont!!

I guess you're just more emotional and sensitive than others, good for you.
