Kewl game. Anyone got it yet? I'm stuck already, after only a day. Bah!

If anyone knows how to get out of the cave you fall in after beating the first boss (nancy with the pistols), please let me know!

TIA

I've completed it (err 3 times!) Where abouts are you stuck in the caves? Are you just lost? Keep going to first person view and look around, there are many hidden passageways that can be crawled through.

MGS3 was one of the best games I've ever played in the past 5 years... however, last month Resident Evil 4 came along and stole MGS3's crown

Thanks FD, I was just being impatient. Snake's eyes took a little while to adjust to the dark (how cool is that?).

Haven't been able to put it down today.....so much for working from home today!

Bloody good game... Shame about the hours upon hours of cut scenes and annoying conversations at the start though.

I remember reading a review of it before I bought the game. The review was stating that the first 3 hours of the game was basically a cutscene that occasionally was interrupted to let the player walk to the next cutscene

Still, after that it was an awesome game... and for the first time in the series I found the cutscenes to be quite enjoyable

Does anyone know how to find The End on the sniping bit?

I sat for an hour looking for him and he sneaked up behind me and shot me in the head! No fair!!

Hints anyone?

When you hear him fire at you, look at your map, he'll be highlighted. After remembering to full out the poison dart, try to make your way towards him. When you get close he'll run off to his next location, switch on your thermal goggles and then follow his foot prints. Usually, these foot prints lead you in from behind, so he won't always see you coming (but he will hear you if you make too much noise). Once behind him, a quick sniper rifle shot to his head will take about 25% of his health away, repeat until finished.

Also, if you save the game and only return to it after a week has passed, he will have died of old age (seriously).
