Some said it was only average while others enjoyed it immensely, despite their propensity for despising console gaming. I was hesitant myself due to the setting of MGS: 3 – the jungle, as well as the fact that it was a prequel to the previous Metal Gear games. Considering Konami’s habit of releasing ‘satellite’ t...Read more
