This is a phenomenal package, and it even hurts to give it a 9/10. You're getting three full games, each an easy 20-30 hours of gameplay, each with beautiful plots and lots of unique gameplay. You're definitely never going to find another game that's too similar to Metal Gear! Wonderful experience that tests both your strategic intellect and philosophy. Only reason I have it a 9/10 was because, for new players coming in to the series, the controls have a rather steep learning curve. Far from intuitive, but not impossible. Personally, the story, characters, and overall originality, make the difficult control scheme worth it. Great especially for PS3 users, who can buy the original Metal Gear Solid game through the PlayStation Network (or with their PS1 disc), and the fourth game, MGS4: Guns of the Patriots. You can have the complete series, sans a few spin-offs, all on your one console! All in all, a must-buy for people unfamiliar with the Metal Gear Solid series, and a delightful reprise for long-time players.

Beautifully innovative game gives players something to keep coming back to. The battle system is something reminiscent of tabletop roleplaying games like Warhammer 40k, but not over-complicated. Challenging and engaging, this game has it all! Even if anime-style graphics are a turn-off, I'd encourage anyone to at least rent this game, or play the demo. This game is, if nothing else, ONE OF A KIND!

Beautifully realized game. Third game in a tremendous series, all of which are must-owns for any PS3 owner! Deep characters, a beautiful story, and surprisingly intuitive controls make this a gaming experience of a lifetime.

The definitive puzzle/riddle game for the DS. A must-play. I would recommend this game to anyone. Not the best for story, but wonderful puzzles/riddles for all ages.
