[QUOTE="excelR83"][QUOTE="hazuki"]Mgs4 is only the 2nd game on the system that takes advantage of its true power. The last one was uncharted, but it was hampered by bad VO and missing features *IE can't crouch in cover? newb forgetfullness*. Though most of the games that look truely amazing still have to have their resolution hampered with and then upscaled. *mgs4, or at least some cutscenes were*

Drake auto-crouches when the cover is the right height. If you can find me a single instance in the game where Drake just stands there in cover while the wall comes up to his waist, let me know. Noob forgetfulness on your part, maybe.
When your in say a pillar, you can't crouch. Its plain and simple. Might not seem like much, but it lowers how much an enemie can see you and actually can see you.
I know when say you have a broken piller lying on the ground, he'll crouch automatically. But you can manually do that in the big items, that could potentially prevent a few shots from hitting you, as you're a smaller target. Worked in gears, mgs2/3/4, and killswitch, so don't even try to say its not useful.
I played through Uncharted twice and never had a single issue in which I would inexplicably be out of cover and getting shot. Behind a pillar is behind a pillar, whether you are crouched or not has nothing to do with the enemies spotting you. It's just not a game mechanic.
