Metareview - Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence
Metal Gear Solid 3 was released today, again. The remix, which includes the debut of online
play, a new camera system, ports of the original MSX
Metal Gear titles, and the addition of numerous other
gameplay modes, spans two discs and is available for a mere $29.99. This
substantial package has garnered an
unprecedented Metacritic score of 99 (6 reviews). While this average is sure to drop in the coming days, there's no
doubt that
Subsistence has made an early bid for game of the year and has reassured current-gen gamers that
the PS2 is far from dead. Peep the word:
- PSM Magazine (100/100) - "...we wish our
review scale went to 11."
- IGN (98/100) - "For the price and the extras, you can't go wrong with Subsistence -- even for
those that have played and beaten the first game once or several more times, it still can't be missed."
- Yahoo! Games
(90/100) - "Subsistence is easily the greatest same-gen remake ever..."
