Never liked the MGS series much.
If you're asking about what order to play them, 3 is basically unconnected to 1 or 2 plotwise.So in your opinion, would MSG3 still be so awesome if you don't play MSG1 and/or MSG2 at all ?
There are a couple recurring characters, but 3 takes place 40 years before 1. You'll miss a few callbacks (call forwards?), but nothing major.
The biggest problem would be if you like it a lot and decide you want to play the whole series, going back to 1 and 2 is kind of rough after the gameplay refinements of 3.
Agreed. MGS3 is much more of a sandbox than the first two which are much more linear, and have more cutscenes than gameplay.

How can you mention MGS3 gameplay and not mention CQ-motherfucking-C?
Also in the subsistence version (the only one I played), the moveable camera just feels so freeing, the pacman design—which I don't even hate—feels restrictive and dampens my enjoyment.
I've always been a bigger sucker for lots of cool ideas compared to fewer good ideas well refined (see: my love for Fallout).
Also, I think needing to heal injuries vs letting them heal on their own is based on difficulty, on harder difficulties they'll heal more slowly or not at all.
than the first two which ... have more cutscenes than gameplay.
mgs2 wasnt the best, but it was good. Solidus was an interesting antagonist and the themes and plot of mgs2 were not only interesting but reflect a lot of what has been happening in the modern world for the past 10 years. It also features a katana.MGS 2 was the best, clearly.
