Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater Official Strategy Guide

 (5 customer reviews)

Metal Gear Solid 3 is an incredible game no matter how you play it. But go through it without some help and you're bound to miss something. This guide is almost perfect in everyway possible. But there are some troubling things that keep this guide down a little.

First of all, this tome is jampacked with tons of helpful tips. Everything you need in the opening pages to know about the game is there. The guide details on all the basics of CQC. From the basics to the advanced tactics. You'll be a master of CQC. The guide also spends a lot of time detailing everything about the food.

The first thing to note is that this guide is packed with information. The guide begins by covering all of the items, weapons, camouflage, and different fighting techniques. Everything is listed at the start of the guide. This is very nice, but I didn't find...Read more

I purchased the Essential Collection, and, I must say, it is also excellent. This guide has a detailed walkthrough, bonus section, items and weapons listing. The boss strategy is also excellent, along with the food listing, and it completely explains how to cure every wound or sickness. I highly recommend it.
