Awighty, so I just beat the game, but when I load the file of my beaten game, I'm not prompted to choose my difficulty for subsequent playthroughs. Will I be able to take on Hard or Extreme mode on my beaten game file? Can anyone who's beaten the game confirm this?
I would assume you could like you can in MGS 1 + 2

I beat it the first time on normal and it let me choose.... I donno, did you beat it on easy? You may be screwed.

Promophile, you must be mistaken. I've beaten the game many times over, and unlike MGS2 and Twin Snakes, MGS3 does NOT let you pick a different difficulty level after you've beaten it. If you want to use your special items on a different difficulty, you'll have to start a new file and earn them there. :/

Oh duh yea my bad, I haven't played it in awhile and what I did was save over my save file with the new extreme game.

Awwwwwwwwwwwww... nertz. I assumed so. I guess the programmers wanted to discourage the use of special items on higher difficulties this time around. Well, thanks, guys. Extreme's going to be a bitch to tackle, it will. >_<
