The result of playing Metal Gear Solid 3 way too many times. First did this on my PlayStation Vita years ago, thinking it was pretty funny.
I tried doing this on MGS Delta as well, but it seems to be really hard, if not impossible, to do.]]>

What were your favorites? Either for the aesthetics or for gameplay usefulness. 

Were you unhappy that several patterns didn't return in MGS4, Peace Walker and The Phantom Pain?


Here are mine, anyway:

Facepaints:
- Splitter: I used it most of the time. Honestly I believe Naked Snake looks weird without it. I was bummed when Bluepoint forgot to render it in HD for the HD Collection. It was eventually fixed in the Master Collection Vol. 1, fortunately.

- Zombie: a striking visual.


Camo patterns:
- Spirit: eliminating Snake's footstep noise and allowing him to regain stamina by choking enemies are great abilities. If you combine it with the Stealth camouflage (invisibility) and the Infinity facepaint (unilimited ammo), you're truly unstoppable.
Trivia: the icon in the Survival Viewer is based on an older, unused version of the pattern and features tiny skulls.

- Moss: wearing it while using the Torch allows you to refill your Stamina gauge, removing the need to gather food.

- DPM: nice forest-like pattern, plus it allows Snake to double his HP recovery rate. You can take advantage of this to quickly obtain a full-size lifebar before fighting Ocelot.

- Desert Tiger: nice desert-like pattern (duh), plus unlimited suppressor use never hurts!

- Sneaking Suit: cuts down on damage taken/stamina loss and looks awesome to boot, especially during the fight against The Boss in the flower field.

- Urban Tiger: a grey version of Tiger Stripes

- Watersnake: looks closer to a snakeskin pattern than the Snake pattern IMO. Before MGS3 was released, there was a contest to have your own pattern featured in the game. I entered various patterns based on snake photographs. Obviously I didn't win (the people who submitted the Animals and Fly camos did IIRC). But I was happy that they designed a camo that was similar to my idea.

- Squares: I enjoy the red and black color scheme and it looks great in Rassvet.

- Santa: funny to sneak around while wearing it.]]> MGS3 introduced the Camouflage system with various camo patterns and facepaints you can wear (you can find a list with pics here).

I might feel differently when I replay 3, or when I get to Delta, but from a story perspective, and for it's ramifications on the rest of the series, MGS3 might be my least favourite Metal Gear.

If I'm alone in this totally fair, I'm quite used to holding the minority opinion aha.]]>

In 2021, when I was in COVID lockdown for several months, I was replaying the MGS games and had the idea to try and watch all the movies that were mentioned in MGS3, since movies of the 50's and 60's were brought up a lot.

I watched 40 films that the game mentioned, ranging from: war movies, monster movies, alien invasion movies, science fiction, and anti-nuke movies. A lot of them were easy enough to find on streaming or blu ray, but some were so obscure that I had a really difficult time tracking them down.
It was actually a lot of fun and it gave me a real love of 50s  and 60s era movies, something I hadn't really delved into so much before

Here's the list in alphabetical order:

20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (1954)
Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948)
The Alamo (1960)
The Alligator People (1959)
The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms (1953)
The Big Broadcast (1932)
The Blob (1958)
The Bridge on the River Kwai (1957)
Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954)

Dracula (1931)
Dr, Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964)
Earth vs The Spider (1958)
A Fistful of Dollars (1964)
The Fly (1958)
Forbidden Planet (1956)
Frankenstein (1931)
From Russia with Love (1963)
Godzilla (1954)
The Great Escape (1963)
The Guns of Navarone (1961)
The Incredible Shrinking Man (1957)
Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956)
It Came from Beneath the Sea (1955)
It Came from Outer Space (1953)
It Conquered the World (1956)
Jason and the Argonauts (1963)
The Last War (1961)
The Magnificent Seven (1960)
Mondo Cane (1962)
North by Northwest (1959)
On the Beach (1959)
Plan 9 from Outer Space (1957)
The Quatermass Xperiment (1955)
Rebecca (1940)
Seven Samurai (1954)
Them! (1954)
The Thing from Another World (1951)
