The best game of 2008 [Posted on 2008-11-14] This is by far the best game I've ever played. It's complicated and provided hundreds of hours of gameplay fun. The plot in single player mode is amazing. If you like Lost or X-Files or Borne Identity, then you'll love the cut scenes. The online gameplay is fun too. The strategy guide is a must.
Game or Long Cartoon??? [Posted on 2008-11-14] I felt like I was watching a cartoon, and once a while playing the game. The "cut scenes" should have been named "scenes", and "game play" should have named "cut game play". This is not a joke! In the beginning I was watching all the cut scenes; then, I tried to skip them ... guess what there were multiple cut scenes in a row ... when it was over, I had to wait for "loading" ... after loading, cut scenes again!!! Even after I was done with the game I had to watch once again multiple cut scenes for almost 40 minutes. I'm pretty sure that I spent more time watching cut scenes and waiting for the game to load than playing the actual game. Now, when you actually play the game, it's fun; therefore, I gave 3 stars.
p.s. So far, Resistance, Ucharted, and Heavenly Sword were the best games I had on PS3.
great [Posted on 2008-11-18] I just got the ps3 and the first game I bought it metal gear 4, of course it is 3rd person view. It has 5 levels of difficulty, I recommend you to star in level 1 if you have never played it before. If you played the game in ps2 you have to move up to ps3, it is more fun and the images are neater. I played for almost 2 days and still halfway into the game. It is long but never get tired of it, you meet different people, missions, weapons..heat seeking missiles, grenade launcher, etc. You'll like it.
(Spanish Review) Muuuy buen juego !!! [Posted on 2008-11-24] Para todos los que hemos jugado MGS, MGS2, MGS3... este es definitivamente el broche que cierra cinturon. Hay muchas agradables sorpresas asi como tambien misterios resueltos de la saga...
Muy buen video, sonido, y como siempre excelente historia.
MGS4 Guns Patriots Review [Posted on 2008-11-26] The only draw back to this game is the outrageously long cutscenes, last night I booted up to play and I had to watch over an hour and a half of cutscenes before I even got to play. Of course the metal gear franchise demonstrates some of the most innovative and superb gameplay ever not to mention loads of visual style. Though in my opinion the story elements have always been long winded, convuluted, confusing and in this case boring. Close to 2 hours in one sitting of cutscenes is over the top. I am in Act 4 of the game and I have begun to start skipping the cutscenes once I get the gist of what is going on...still an awesome game when you actually get to play. Furthermore I have read that of the 25 hours of total "game play" close to 13 hours are cut scenes, hence only about 17 hours of actual gameplay time...
