The only thing that hasn't aged well in MGS3 is that there's no crouch walking

Lots of the streamlining of MGS controls after 3 actually ended up making the games worse. V ended up being Crouch Walking: The Game. There was no reason to do anything else unless you were sprinting for distance. But in 3, every movement and stance had its uses. Having to choose between hiding and moving added a lot of tension to the game, instead of just crouch walk beelines from A to B.

4 had a good balance in its movements though, even with the crouch walking. But the instant camo also ended up less fun. Since changing camo was so annoying in 3, it actually became optimal to choose camo in such a way that you only need to change a few times in the entire game.

These are the things that make 3 so expressive and memorable in a way that some horse poop can't compare.
