Are we talking about MGS3 or the Metal Gear Solid series in general? Because, I must admit, MGS3 has much less sci/fi elements in it than for example MGS1 and 2. Both MGS1 and 2 are sci/fi action/stealth games. MGS3 is more of an action game with fantasy elements, set in a fictional past.

I also think you're mixing up the genres. A game can be a sci/fi action game. The Sci/fi explains the settings, the theme of the game. While the action part explains the gameplay.

Metal Gear Solid 1/2

Genre: Action/stealth, Theme: Sci/Fi

Shortened, it's a sci/fi action/stealth game.

Metal Gear Solid 3

Genre: Action/stealth, Theme: Cold War/Historical Sci/Fi, Fantasy

You know what I mean by now...
