    Stealth, espionage and haute cuisine are the order of the day. Bon appetit!

    Snake's back. Or is he? The gruff, unshaven star of MGS3 certainly looks familiar, but the
    1960s setting poses some tough questions about his age.

    All will no doubt be revealed as master storyteller Hideo Kojima unravels his latest gripping
    yarn of stealth and subterfuge, which combines the well loved 'hide and seek' formula of
    Snake's previous exploits with intriguing new elements such as a jungle environment,
    camouflage and hunting for food.

    MGS3 is set some forty years ago during the Cold War, which means you won't have
    support via Codec and nor will you have a fancy array of futuristic weapons with which to
    dispatch enemies.

    Snake (or his facsimile) is heading to the jungle so it's back to basics: a complete set of
    authentic 1960s pistols and automatic weapons or, for Close Quarters Combat, knife and
    fists. Don't worry though; he might have an older cache of weapons, but Snake has some
    devastating new tricks up his camouflaged sleeves.

    Our man in the jungle can take out enemies (even multiple assailants) using hand-to-hand
    combat. He has camouflage to suit every environment, including thick jungle, long grass
    and even fire. He can even shimmy up trees and drop down on enemies or, better yet,
    hang from a branch with one hand and shoot with the other.

    Of course, all of this is hungry work for our hero and, regrettably for anyone with a weak
    stomach, it's your job to keep him fed...

    • New CQC (Close Quarters Combat) system - engage your enemies in hand-to-hand or
      knife-based combat


    • Blend into your surroundings with a range of camouflage types


    • Keep Snake's strength up by feeding him indigenous reptiles, birds and fish
