I don’t like spinoffs, I don’t like theTwin Snakesremake on GameCube, and usually anything without Hideo Kojima’s involvement isn’t worth my time. Thankfully, Konami’s new remake of the iconicMGS3,Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, seems to be worth every second and cent thus far, judging from what I played today....
