Hey guys you probably seen me around and I am in need of your help.
I have played portable ops and portable ops + i had them both until my dad smashed them.
I have Mgs3 as well both original and subsistence but the subsistence is the one from the essential collection so it does not have MG and MG2:SS and I have not played those ones yet.
So I need help deciding which to get because I only have a little bit of money and after I buy whichever one I told my mom to hold the rest for my MGS4 savings.
Can you help me choose thank you. ^_^

Be a true fan, and buy 'em all ^^ Just kidding :P
Well, I haven't played the PSP-games yet (but I wanna =/ ), but I don't know...
I have all 3 discs of the Subsistence-version of MGS3, and I love it :D
But really... I think you just should go for one of them, and buy the other one
another time if you can't make up your mind :)

Thanks, r0b ^

You're lying, I've been you

I like MGS3 better as a whole because of the story and would personally choose that of the two.

But if you are looking for lasting appeal and play online, you might want to get PO+ so you can play online.

Subsistence is probably a better buy. However, if you only have a little bit of cash, picking it up could be a problem. Its one of the most expensive games out their at the moment.

Oh man, is this an easy choice, MGS3 by far!
The online sucks on PO+ i say, You should wait for your MGS4 and play MGO.

Well subsistence is gonna be about twice the price of MGSPO at least. But it is more than twice the game so i suppose it' depends on your funds. I would go for subsistence and then get PO after. PM me with details on your PSP's firmware (go to settings > system settings > system information) and i may be able to help you out with regards to MGS PO and the older metal gear games...you can emulate them on your PSP. ;)

MGS3 Subsistence ( real version not essentials version) if you want to play 3 again, and if you don't want that, get Acid or Acid 2. i beat them both and they were very good. In fact just find MG and MG2 online. thats how I played them.

I found MPO for 20Euros which is quite cheap. You might be able to find it for a cheap price too.
