Because we must hype it up before the remake comes out...

720p 30 fps for 70 usd/eur, on consoles that just got more expensive ❤️
Truly the greatest era of gaming

not quite:
but it does struggle to hit those targets with performance mode often only getting 45ish FPS and drops into the 30s.

I mean, I played it when it came out, and it was fun and all

I haven‘t played it but it‘s arguably the least discussed Metal Gear Solid game. At least people talk about 4 and 5. 3 literally just sits in the middle and sort of… exists.

Idk what you're talking about. It's generally thought of as the best game in the series.

That could be a reason to not discuss the game, though. It‘s probably not as rough or memeable.

Best mini games in the series, and I'll fight about it

Everyone reacts to different media differently so I don’t have trouble seeing this as in earnest. MGS3 has very strong moments IMO. For me it’s the likes of FFX that gets me still 25 years later, and there are others to be sure. Oh boy, Undertale though.

I recently replayed FFX and couldn't agree more. Loved every second of it, and it's still my favorite FF of all time.

Metal Gear is just typically fun in general
