MGS4: skip cutscene and choose the easiest mode, you should be able to beat it in 10 hours.

MW 2 took me about 5 hours on medium if I remember corrently.

MGS4 was something like 18 hours on my first playthrough, including all cutscenes and the credits.

But if you want to rent MGS 4 take your time and watch the cutscenes, it's worth it.

hmmm

not sure you can take your time with MW2

once you start, so long as you keep going, you are pretty much forced to beat it in 4 hours

as for MSG4, i not sure, but after MW2, you will have just under 5 days, so take your time

What's the point in skipping cutscenes? MGS 4 is all about them. I say if you wanna rent these games first complete MW2 which won't take you long and then rent MGS 4 and spent a bit more time with it. Don't rush it,because you won't like it and it's gonna be a waste of money, really.

Well, MW2 took about 7 hours to complete on Veteran, and MGS4 took me just under 2 1/2 hours on TBE.

I beat MGS4 on hard in 2 days and MW2 on hard in one day. Both on my first playthrough's no biggy!Keir21

This is why neither game is worth buying ... only renting - Which is why you asked about 5 days I am assuming - both games are horrible

Wait a minute.... you are saying that if you watch all the cutscenes in the game, it adds TWO hours to the overall runtime? You're not serious? Have you played the game?!

thats def true MGs has always had the longest cutscenes and it adds alot of time onto the game without them its a very short experience. I think one in MGS4 is almost an hour long.

I think that's his point. There are way more than just 2 hour worth of cutscenes in MGS4.

If you watch the cutscenes in MGS4, it will take approximately 15 to 25 hours depending on your skill and familiarity with the game.

From what I hear MW2 = 6 hour single player campaign. So yea, you could do it with about 4 to 6 hours of play a day.

If you play MGS4 and skip the cutscenes, you're missing the point. If you're just going to skip them then don't even bother playing the game. Seriously.

Wow...

MGS4 is overrated, IGN's "buy it even if you hate Metal Gear" stance crossed the line for me. And that's coming from a DIE HARD Metal Gear fan.

And I beat MGS4 on extreme, no cutscenes, kills, alerts, continues, rations, etc... in under 4 hours. So yeah.

I took about 9-10 hours beating mgs4, then sold it because i got bored of it

as for mw2 its a pretty quick campaign mode even though i havent come across to finish it yet, but im guessing around 5-6 hours.

5 Days... yes it is possible... even without skipping the cutscenes... you'll miss out on some of the essences of the games, especially MGS4... and most people who got bored with MGS4 are the non-followers of the series... but if you have played it since MGS1... every cutscene is vital...

It's doable. MW2 took me 3 days, but I played on veteran and had school each day. The first time I played MGS4 it probably took me 2-3 days on hard, played over the summer of 2008 for hours on end each day haha

Well, unless you suck you can beat MW2 in about 5 hours. And if you skip the cutscenes in MGS4 you can beat it in under 3 hours.

hmmm

not sure you can take your time with MW2

once you start, so long as you keep going, you are pretty much forced to beat it in 4 hours

as for MSG4, i not sure, but after MW2, you will have just under 5 days, so take your time

TroubleMaker411

I personally don't think you could beat MW2 in 4 hours or less on HARD on your first play through. There is absolutely no chance you beat it on Veteran in 4 hours or less either.

I beat MW2 in one sitting...very very short. Of course you can't really "beat" the multiplayer so if you're going to do that part then it might take a while.

My first playthough, was on hard ( i am nearly done on veteran, but i got bored) took my a little under 4 hours. I thought this was a normal playtime considering everyone complains that the campaign is short

i am 2 missions away from finishing it on veteran and my play time is around 5 hours

sadly, AC2 came along, and i sold MW2

MW2 won't take long.

MGS4 cutscenes are boring, so skip them, and they're quick
