Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater

In 2004, Konami, alongside legendary game creator Hideo Kojima, released Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. A game that would go on to not only be one of my favourites of all-time, but a game that has shaped my tastes even to this day. That's why when a remake/remaster of…

Snake has returned to the Russian jungle after two decades. A prequel to the entire MGS series awaits you with better graphics and new controls.

For the uninitiated, Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is a stealth adventure that originally released on PlayStation 2 way back in 2004, with a heavy emphasis on storytelling and cinematic cutscenes. Since then, it has had countless re-releases, including Substance, which made drastic improvements on the base game. Metal Gear Solid Delta is arguably the biggest re-release of the game so far and the first “new” (if you can even call it that) entry in the series since the mixed bag that was ...

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is the definitive way to experience one of the best games in a series known for its excellence. Some technical issues can mar the overall package, but there is no denying how much work has gone into this remake.

There are few greater proofs that games are art than this one.

In 2004, Hideo Kojima and his team at Konami released the original run of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. It was one of most immersive gaming experiences most of us had seen and many legendary bits and pieces would influence games and their players for decades to come. Flash forward, Konami, in its recent trek back into AAA gaming, has attempted to recapture that magic with a remake in Unreal Engine 5. Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is a top-to-bottom redesign of the original that polishes its visuals, controls, and brings things to modern standards. While it misses a few beats and prese...

Twenty-one years is a long time for a videogame, but the writing in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater aged like a fine wine. Konami played its hand well by keeping all that made the game great, and just replacing the more dated, practical bits. From crawling around in the mountains to fighting Soviet Spider-Man in the jungle, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is fun to play and actually feels good. It is the perfect gift for Metal Gear Solid fans, ten years after the mainline game. Despite some minor gripes specific to the PlayStation 5 integration, this game is a sign that you can, in fact, i...

Metal Gear Solid 3 has always been considered the best stealth-based game of all time for a good reason, and Metal Gear Solid Delta is here to prove it true. There are several reasons to praise this polished remake, but the lack of story changes is a significant downside.

I don’t want to call Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater a remake. That implies major changes were made compared to the original. The work Capcom has been

For better or worse, Metal Gear Solid Delta shines as a preservation of a classic but rarely feels like a bold reimagining.

Remaking Metal Gear without its creator seems foolhardy but this is as good an effort as could be imagined, without completely redesigning the original game.
