I also didn't think four was "the greatest game of all time" (as many fanboys have been saying) or even the great MG title. That would go to either MGS1 or 3. However, honestly, little has changed gameplay wise, so I'm not sure what your beef is. I thought the the plot of 4 was, well, cheesy and bad. That's why I didn't like it.

The only truly major notable change I would say between one, two, three and four is the camera. Excluding all the basic upgrades such as the Drebin and such.

I happen to enjoy MGS4's gameplay and control mechanics a lot more than any of its predecessors. It does feel and look different because of the camera angles and the superb controls. And that's not a bad thing either.

I thoroughly enjoyed it but I do see your point. I had to get use to actually pressing x to go through menus instead of circle. Also the aiming system was different and I had to get used to it. 3 was my favorite though.

lol. That's jacked up. XD But even so, this is one of those games that you really don't want to NOT see what everyone else sees. Like Shadows of the Colossus. If you missed the point in that game, then wow. Just wow. :P

Maybe you ran through most MGS 4 at easy, but not on the harder level, unless you've played the game quite a few times, but even there... Without saying it's the best game ever or the best game in the series. I'll say that it's one if not the best game released so far. The mechanic is well done, the gameplay is incredible the graphics are amazing, that game has it all imo.

I'd say that is a little harsh lol.

Regardless of whether or not the TC enjoyed it isn't up to me but I must say that MGS 4 is my favorite followed by MGS.

I loved 1, 2, and hated 3 as well.

4 is pretty good. The story wasn't very good once you got to Act 4 though, it kind of fell apart. The whole Meryl and Johnny thing wasn't needed at all. Gameplay is awesoe, and MGO is pretty damn sweet.

I wouldn't give it a 10 though, I would rate it between 8.7-9

I am working on my second playthrough currently, so I can get the big boss emblem.

Twin Snakes is currently the best MGS game out of the series IMO.

I would love to see remakes of Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2 Snakes Revenge.

I think the problem is that they promoted and simplified combat too much, so actually sneaking seems like a chore rather than the way to play the game.

Maybe because the style of the game have changed. We used to play the game as stealth from the beginning till the end, but in this one there are millitia, resistance, etc. Ithink it should be attractive I liked too much.

your right about the third one

trey555555

That is exactly what has changed. Now, you don't have to sneak like in the last one. Hideo has opened up the gameplay to first timers of the series and made it appeal to a wider audience.

Snake can still hide and creep, and stealth around, but now he doesn't always have to. You CAN go in guns blazing with an M60E4 LMG, you CAN use an RPG on infantry if you like, but at the same time, you will be missing some of the suspense of creeping around with a stun knife and a silenced pistol.

Your call. I'd say wait a few weeks then start the game from the very beginning again. Oh, and one more thing. There is no shame in playing the game on Liquid Easy! I did, and i have just recently finished finishing it on Solid Normal ;)

while its changed quite abit, the core of the game is the same and act 4 is just memorable, and i think 4 was the best then 3 then 1 then 2 but i still liked all of them. and i know what you mean symphonycome there are lots of excuses if people don't agree with opinion. like the term 'fanboy'

Way I see it, anyone that did not like it for real. Is not on these boards right now. I know if I see a ugly chick. My first thought ""is not" to go to her house and tell her about it. And I wont waste my whole day doing so.

Rightly said, everyone uses the term 'fanboy' to say "I am right and my opinion is the only 1 that matters because if you think otherwise then you are just a fanboy, if you agree with me however, you are not".....games can't please everyone, each new sequel brings old fans, creates new, and loses some

Thanks. There really needs to be a rule for shooting out the word "fanboy" because their opinion doesn't match with their own. It's just as annoying as actual fanboys. >.> Oh wait, that bans a good portion of multiconsole owners, doesn't it?

I prefer 4, due to it's better controls, and camera and it was all around an amazing game, but when I read your title I thought you were going to be like my cousin who said MGS4 sucks all because he didn't know it was a stealth game and he got caught and died on his first try. He claims "no jumping?" because he plays too much COD4 and he said it was a dumb game. :lol:

I didn't like 4 very much, some parts of the game were too irritating (long, often boring cutscenes, the motorcycle chase, fighting all those robots at shadow moses, trailing that guy in act 2, etc.). Plus I felt there wasn't enough stealth. My favorite of the series is definetely 3, best plot, perfect mixture of stealth and action, and great new features (camo, surgery, etc). I loved the other games as well.

Would you please share with us what game you think presents a better story experience

MGS4 has one of the more mature storylines available in video games - most other stuff looks WAY worse in cutscenes and has WAY WAY WAY worse dialog. MGS4 is a GOOD story for a video game....you've got it backwards... I'm not sure what you're getting at here. This sort of thing in games should be encouraged *boggle*

It's because in the third and fourth they main-streamed it more... So you actually found guns useful... And you had ammo for them. They are more survival games than stealth now in my opinion... Doesn't mean I don't like them though.

superkoolstud

how could you hate 3? give a valid reason? why? because it is a needed part of the story and without 3 you have NO Metal gears at all because guess what? without snake in MGS3 there would be no MGS1 2 or 4 or even the next one.

I didn't like MGS 4. They tried way, way, way too hard to make it depressing. And I didn't like how sneaking wasn't as important as it used to be. A lot of times I just ran from one end of the map to the other with no problem.

What movie is this?

I think metal gear solid 4 is overrated.it get praise from critic for no reason
