Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater HD Cutscenes - Ending

[@DevilishmanThe]

Game start: Naked Snake, a dorky yet badass soldier. Game end: Snake, a broken man.

[@Tony-br7ct]

dorky?

[@johnleemcmulln2168]

+DevilishmanThe *big boss: a legendary soldier with a shettered past

[@eatsleepplayrepeat]

+DevilishmanThe What do you mean by "dorky"?

[@DevilishmanThe]

Well, in snake eater, for example, Snake has a bomb of a woman, half naked besides him...and he goes all gaga over gun. Not to mention that apparently he believes in Santa (or did until the events of peace walker). But hey, thats my opinion.

[@FiruNazgulio]

+Devilishman He does look at her breasts and butt on several ocasions if you press R1. He did not give her affection until the end because he suspected of her, he finally trusted her in the end and was betrayed.

+Logan Spejewski Him holding back his tears does it, it's so fucking heartbreaking, I can never not cry

[@ninalanham7849]

ikr

[@Kujakuseki01]

And how vengeful he is. We didn't need any follow-up games to assume what he was going to do, and that he would become Big Boss from this. I think mgs4 and peace walker actually hurt this ending.

[@Chiakiandmikanarebest]

Kujakuseki01 peace walker doesn't really do much to make an impact on the series, but the ending of chapter 5 does kind of hurt it, it was mostly just to explain how he built outer heaven, which really makes me wonder what the hell he was actually doing in mgs 5, I haven't got to the end yet in that game, but I know the twist and it was a really dumb twist I think

[@Kujakuseki01]

Logan Spejewski Yeah. I said mgs4 in my comment above, but I meant mgs5. The story in it is just awful.

[@leonjee4245]

Kojima really depicts the broken soldier VERY well. A lot of American soldiers, even in victory, comes back a shell of their former self, which is portrayed magnificently well by Snake.

[@kosmicmarxman443]

The message is universal. War destroys everything it touches.

[@AverageJoeCinema]

I gotta say, when I first played through the game, the salute isn't what got me. What really hit me hard was Snake's nihilistic stare as the press was taking photos of him and the smiling President.

[@ArtofLunatik]

Same here...

[@soliderarmatang5664]

Same !!!!!!! But the salute really shed the tear tho

[@Ch4os4ever]

+JiggyStash Especially if you talked to EVA in the beggining and Snake asked how could someone defect and betray their country like that, and she said her eyes were oppened and that was the reason. I guess he finnaly understood by the end and ended up going rogue as well.

[@soliderarmatang5664]

Ch4os4ever bro, that part was so fucking sad, realizing Merica had planned this all along, and he has to shake hands with those fuckers, knowing they fucked him and lied to him, after losing his eye, getting into pain unbearable for anyone, losing his mentor and mother figure, losing the girl he loved, having no one and becoming alone, all he could do is shed tears for the boss, man that is unimaginable, like i said this scene was the only game/story/movie that has ever made me shed a tear, i doubt anything else will ever surpass this

[@sarnicholas4053]

+ JiggyStash But the two are kind of linked. When Big Boss salutes the president, there's just this underlying contempt and sense of literally 'just going through the motions'; there's absolutely nothing behind it. But when he salutes at the bosses grave, it's an authentic gesture of reverence and respect.I think now nowadays it could have been conveyed even better with the subtle animations we're capable of now, but the fact that they were able to do it with the resources of the time is just cool as hell. And honestly, one of the stars of the show that holds this entire sequence together is that god-tier musical direction.

[@splintercell323]

Still gets to me. After a fucking decade, still gets to me. Just his facial expressions when receiving the commendation. That's the face of a broken man. THE FEELS!! T_T

[@CN-dl6fb]

And Then He Died.(**SPOILER**Well actually there is a lot more than that,Some shit happend he got burned and went into coma and was kept alive through nanobots,then he got revived and then he died of OLD AGE.)

How fitting was it that the only person who could ever put Big Boss down was a clone of himself?

[@lopey5035]

Big Boss is still the better soldier

[@devildavin]

as much as i love Solid Snake, i feel that we got to see more of Big Boss so he feels like a more fleshed out charecter, in the middle of a fight or when something happens that works out in his favor by accident he smiles or some times look alittle confused, we never see that with Solid

[@sagittarius4765]

Snake didnt put him down though, yea sure he pretty mich dismantled his operations but not actually put him down. He killed venom snake in mg1, he confronted big boss & had a showdown with him sure but boss faked his death and didnt die by a lighter and spray lol he died because of foxdie injected in him.

[@masonholder9496]

Single handedly THE most powerful ending to any game. I remember when I first watched this, and learnt the truth about Boss's defection...I literally teared up and blubbered lol. NEVER saw it coming. What a game, what an ending. Still gets me every time :)

Hard to believe this was almost 10 years ago. First game to bring me to tears because of the true mission. I suddenly looked back at the other games and saw Big Boss as a hero. Love that they're exploring that with the new games.

+R4KID mgs 4 ending more tragic and unpredictable . Mgs 3 masterpiece , true, but when I first saw walkthrough Boss betrayal sooo predictable , like James Bond's movies or like one of spy movies (MY opinion ). But , yes , ending sad and great.

[@Doctor_Pazuzu]

Nah, MGS4's ending was so cheesy that it was predictable to me immediately. Solid would try to kill himself, only to find out that he doesn't need to and can die later off camera because that's a less brutal but still somber ending, also Big Boss appears because retcons and feelz and fanservice. MGS4's ending felt forced, poorly written, and dumb, and while this could end up being predictable later on, it doesn't make it any less tragic and effective. MGS3's ending is perfect.

[@solidsnake9898]

MGS1 had the best wnding for me. Such a great message to finish a game with.

[@devildavin]

After something like this, you completely understand why Big Boss turned and said "fuck countries and governments that toss away soldiers"

[@solidsnake9477]

While MGS4 feels more bittersweet and a conclusion this ending is next to perfect and dramatic in a good way. MGS1 is good but I feel like they shouldn't have killed Liquid off so soon.

[@ermitanyohermit3603]

I remember crying in this ending. I was so shocked with that twist in the end. I was played by the boss as well coz i hated her for defecting and abandoning snake. Then just to be told that she didnt, that it was the greatest sacrifice. And no one will know her story, just snake. Damn.

[@Llllll5432]

A lonely well trained soldier that had no one else but a mentor and a will to serve his country. Found out , that same mentor who he grew to admire and appreciate and was known as the best soldier in American history , had to be deemed a traitor by her own country due to a very serious unsuspected incident that needed a sacrifice to prevent a full blown nuclear war. Even though the real story under the surface was she sacrificed not only herself but also her pristine image as a patriot and set up an elaborate plan to set up her own funeral by one of her best son like comrade . On top of that , that very same soldier found love for the first time and realized in the end of all this mess, he was just being used this whole time. And survived through countless of close calls where he stared death in the face each time and yet showed not one emotion but fear and bravery .The military/ US government molded him into a literal killing machine with barely a social life and seeing his own mentor and mother figure as well as his only love, disappear in front of his innocent naive eyes hurts just even the coldest of hearts. This game got too real in a instant with this ending and snake's tear and salute was very heartbreaking and amazing to see . I truly love the dedication that this game put into this compelling story that seemed far-fetched at times but truly in the end of the day was a remarkable story. By far one of my favorite games of all time

This game is definitely the best in the series for me. The start of the patriot big boss. I really don't understand how people could play call of duty when this game play and story telling is so well written. My favourite game series. Such a sad story. Of the boss defecting to save her country. And this game shows snakes emotions of having to kill his former mentor so well. I've never been impressed this much from one game before. The music the cut scenes the game play elements. Hats off to kojima and the team. Bravo!

[@Prep5242]

I love how at the start of Snake Eater he asks Eva, "Why would anyone defect? Betraying your country like that... I just don't get it." And at the end, he finally does get it... The U.S. Betrayed him, and so Snake lost all his loyalty. He realized that governments are just people, and aren't always worth dying for. So he devoted the rest of his life to liberating soldiers like him. Holy shit, right?

When we all played mgs1, none of us thought that it could possibly have been surpassed in its story. Msg3 may not have surpassed in plot, but this ending outdid anything and video game has ever done.

All and all, Big Boss is a dark mirror to Solid Snake.

[@princenoah21]

They gave him a title for killing his most beloved mentor. They gave him a medal that would forever remind him of that horrible moment. They willfully hid the truth from him even after the fact. (even though they had to, the point remains) And no one would ever know the true origin of the title "Big Boss". No one, but him.

[@infjmale91]

One of the best scenes in gameplay history. So much is revealed in just these 10 minutes to not only Snake but us as the players. You really didn't have a clue what was the boss's true ambition and finding out she was just a disposable pawn in the government's cover up made not only Snake but the player break. It makes you double take all the engagements you had in the game and reevaluate them knowing that now. Did she actually lose to Snake or maybe just let him win? So much Snake has to process whilst going back and having to lie to everyone (as if he reveals it, it would likely cause WW3) so has to look at everyone in that boardroom (president included) and know they were all in on it and he's just as disposable as she is, if needed. Truly amazing. I think this may be the only version of Snake that cries (the original).

[@Doo-l5x]

4:37 "It was all a lie." I especially love the way EVA says, "I tricked you." such a good voice actress...

[@CrimsonPimpLV]

The narrative of this game is timeless. A true gem that will shine on forever

[@Kujakuseki01]

I STILL cry when I watch this.

[@gm-2873]

Dang its been so long...actually got a few tears from this.

[@kblargh]

6:56 I must be really dumb, because it took me all these years to realize how Snake actually outfoxed her.

[@Vengeance289]

Can't wait to cry to this in the remake.

[@7zatanna]

The best metal gear solid story out of all of them. When Eva started breaking down about the boss living on in snakes heart it was like getting hit by bus like I could literally feel the regret,pain,anger,confusion and just inconsolable.

[@LiterallyRyan_Gosling]

They better give this scene the love it deserves in the remaster

[@plasmagear4652]

this and halo reach were the first game that got me crying a lil bit at the end. Happy it’s getting remastered

[@IceWarm]

This is my favorite video game of all time. This was also the first game that made me cry, the ending is so sad.

[@tommyvercetti9434]

It's amazing how much of an amazing job these people did with Snake's face at the meeting with the president. You can see how hurt he is and his contempt for every suit in that room in this 2004 PS2 game where people talks by twitching their lower jaw.

[@DRigg100]

Kojima is amazing! he delivered such great cinematics in the Metal Gear series!

[@BigLadGreen]

This video game story will never be topped. Ever

[@raymichaels5022]

15:23, A truly heart wrenching powerful moment that I will never forget, it will be etched into the annuals of gaming history

[@michaelpreston3819]

someone make this game into a goddamn movie

[@P4boot]

Michael Preston I think they will ruin it... Let it stay as it is..

[@katissimo1219]

P4boot agreed

[@tailbite4815]

No! There are too many stuffs that only videogame could performs.

[@yugen8382]

At least recreate it in the fox engine

[@waluigi356]

They are indeed making a movie, but idk if they're doing Metal Gear Solid or Snake Eater first

[@rumbelboss9467]

Kojima is just a genious, MGS3 ends at The Boss grave, and MGS4 ends at The Boss grave too!

[@robinpimpin190]

“Take me over to her…” 😔

[@technoir2216]

a hero, not the hero we deserved but the hero we ahhhh... you get the point

[@semo1242]

Ces.Ex.Machina from the dark knight 😂

[@technoir2216]

sameer cool she is the Dark Knight

[@blazerashbringer2001]

I never played any of the MGS because i was young and poor did not knew they existed i just saw this scene for the first time and teared up like a baby.

[@J1R629]

You aren’t just watching a video game ending. You are watching the death of a man. You are watching the death of everything he believed in. You are watching the beginning of a monster being created to fight the monsters of the world.

[@melvinbigboss6557]

I cry every time I see this ending it truly is sad when u find out the true that she was still serving her country like a true hero but she is still branded as a war criminal :(

[@solidsnake9477]

Melvin Big Boss If Volgin hadn't blown up Sokolov's facility then the ending would've been much different.

[@JellyJman]

The Boss: “My will is simple, just give peace a chance!” Everyone else: “I’m gonna just pretend I didn’t hear that”

[@denisjones5351]

The salute at that military graveyard almost made me cry. It was really, really hard to not cry.

[@673AWSF]

Still watching almost 20 years on. Still getting emotional.

[@javiko80]

¿Por qué esta mierda me sigue haciendo llorar después de años sin jugarla? Uno de los mejores juegos que ha existido nunca, por no decir el mejor.

[@scarecrow108productions7]

10:00 *-"If you know the name "Big Boss", then maybe you were there at the ceremony when I received the title from President Johnson."* 10:55 *"-At the ceremony, the DCI tried to shake my hand. I refused. What happened in that room was classified, top secret. Only a handful of people would know."* *-"Why did you refused to shake his hand?"* *-"Because...I knew where my loyalty belonged."* 10:52 *-"Because I was the Army's Chief-of-Staff back then, and I was standing right next to the DCI when it happened...I saw everything!"* You know this cutscene alone would hit you real hard when this was called back later in Peace Walker.

[@hjejenhxndn4588]

Lloró, cómo un verdadero hombre.

[@FernandoSilva-bf7dv]

No es llorar son lágrimas masculinas

[@Sternertime]

Such a sad ending - one in which the protagonist is completely and utterly traumatized by the action of the story. Not damaged beyond repair, but close. They wronged him so badly that he couldn't even celebrate being successful in averting a nuclear holocaust. "Jack - or should I say Snake... you're a wonderful man. Kill me now. There's only room for one snake and one boss. " Imagine hearing that from someone who literally raised you. Imagine that being your rite of passage as a man. Its absurd to think about it outside the world of MGS, obviously, but in a well made game you end up feeling things with the protagonist, especially if the road to the finish was difficult.

[@iliasghailani1552]

Best scene in the history of video games, period.

[@LSK2K]

I wish they would release the goddamn game on PC.

[@irvancrocs1753]

In video game we have The Boss, in movie we have Snape, and in anime we have Lelouch and Itachi... But at least Snape and Itachi's name are cleared up, not like The Boss and Lelouch :(

[@gregor3000pl]

No matter how many times I watch this I actually start crying in the middle every time and burst into tears when Snake sheds a single one... In a way, Snake, just like The Boss sacrificed himself for this mission... "Ever since I killed The Boss... I was already dead..." Even The Boss herself notices this, she gives Snake the Patriot rifle, as a symbolic way of not only suggesting, that she did what she had to do for her country, but to show Snake, that he fulfiled his duty as an American soldier... It's just so sad to see two wonderful people get used by the government in an attempt to snatch money from their competitors...

[@gregor3000pl]

I watched it again today and I'm still fucking crying, this is gettimg ridiculous.

[@aaronlao572]

lol me too , i watched it now and got teary eyes

[@boxtank5288]

This...and how EVAs voice HITCHES..as the emotions overwhelm any veneer of cold that she was trying to put up...

[@CrickettoSantalune]

11:36 Seeing Zero, Sigint and Para Medic worried for Snake crushed me ;-;

[@WatchDog-wr9kd]

The only game series where if you cry it's still manly.

[@dualsoul7398]

10:48 his mind possibly said "that applause wasn't a compliment for me.....because all what happened was just a LIE"

[@IllegalEmperor]

Ese diálogo final de Eva contándole la verdad y luego ver las fechas de los acontecimientos futuros, en especial el último donde nacen los hijos de Big Boss y ese sonido fuerte hacen que se me ponga la piel chinita jajaja. AMO ESTA OBRA MAESTRA

[@SolCresta3405]

When MGS3 suddenly goes from being James Bond to a Pixar film.
