I love the sneaking in this game, that you sneak behind and point your gun, and say "FREEZE!"
Kinda like some sort of a cop. And i have today beaten Mission mode, so now its Snake Tales again.
Favorite game as a 13 year old.
What is your favorite Metal Gear/Solid game

The first Solid iteration is my fave. But 2 and 3 are great as well. This is my second favorite game franchise.

MGS 3 is the best.

I played one of the metal gear games, don't remember which one. I was fighting a boss dude who had a huge hard-on for revolvers. You had to shoot bee hives or something to fall on him.
After hours of trying, I decreed that the boss was, in fact, impossible to beat. I rage quit and never picked it up again.

You've been playing MGS3, maybe you've been playing on "European Extreme", the most hardest difficulty.
I think its ok though.

Maybe. I rage quit a lot, though.
I quit Morrowind because i couldn't kill a few rats in some low-level quest. I said fuck it and sold it to gamestop.
I rage quit Kingdon Hearts because I couldn't beat the Hercules level. Seriously, fuck that game.
Don't even get me started on Diablo I...

You do know you can lower the difficulty right?
If you already have it on the lowest setting then no offense but maybe gaming isn't for you hahaha.

My OCD will not allow me to rage quit. In fact, I carefully choose which games I buy because I get all OCD on them and have to beat them 100%, all collectibles, 100% on all missions, unlockables, etc. Right now I am locked into Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag, going back to beat all the optional mission requirements so I can get 100% Sync. I am a lost cause.
When I play MGS games, I play the first time through willy nilly, but then I have to be the damned thing in sneak mode. No Alert Phases, No Kills. Took me 6 playthroughs on MGS4 to get the Big Boss Emblem. (No kills, no alert phases, no deaths, 5.5 hours),

Eh, it's not that good. A lot of the settings in MGS4 were pretty shit IMO. I only really enjoyed the first chapter where you felt like you were part of an actual battle. MGS3 has a much better vibe as you feel like you have to actually survive in the jungle, I missed that from this game.
The storytelling is good, although it's a bit too linear for my tastes, and often it doesn't make much sense. The story has nothing on Knights of the Old Republic or the Mass Effect franchise.
