No because I've never played it. Just not my type of game. Maybe I'll buy it when it hits 20 bucks, but I'll just stick to Valkyria Chronicles. That game makes almost every game seem mediocre, but I don't hate VC for it. I blame the other games for not being as good as VC.

No I don't feel that way. MGS4 was a great game and the best game on the PS3 for me, but it is not my favorite MGS game, MGS3 is my favorite.

i love you, you made me lol but yeah, it seems like this generation is more about visuals than gameplay, story or replay value, every game seems so rushed no matter how long it went under production status.

Heh I remember I was doing the same for a while too. Eventually someone asked me if I worked for sega or something.

We should start a "give us money sega for promoting vc" union.

i agree in a loose sense

not every game has to be epic, those are the ones that are remembered but most games could have easily been better, i think that is what upsets me the most.

ohwell, i always was a picky gamer, i'll just wait until valkryia chronichles, then i will wait for bayonetta, then heavy rain, then god of war, then tekken, then gran turismo, then ff13 then versus, then team ico

...

goddamn we gamers have it good.

i've finished MGS 1 to 4. Among those 4 games I can say MGS4 is the best... Because the game is not all about stealth but also like a war game. ^_^

This would be better suited to your blog. MGS4 is a fantastic game, but that doesn't stop anyone else enjoying other games too.

REALLY? NICE! haha TC i made a thread exactly like this before lol Games were never the same for me after MGS4, im still waiting, i mean RE5 and KZ2 were awesome, but its jus not the same, i just bought Fallout3 and its interesting enough... its the first RPG im playing this gen, (apart from Pokemon Platinum on DSi :P shhhh) so at least its a fresh genre, but i was shocked last time when i turned off my ps3 after like 15 mins and said i was bored (my bothers jaw dropped :P)...*sish* maybe im growing up :P (jus turned 18)

IMO, MGS4 was okay. People on this board know I'm not a big fan of the game, and I don't want to start a flame war, but I had a lot of issues with it. Some people loved all the videos, I am not one of those people.

MGS 4 is an outstanding game and is definitley going to be remembered as classic. The visuals, the over the top storyline and the excellent gameplay are all presented perfectly making this one of the most impressive games I have played.

I loved MGS4 (and all the other MGS games for that matter) because it is very much focused on the single player experience, something I find is not so common these days. Alot of the games released now are focusing on the online/muliplayer aspect of gaming, which is great if you like that sort of thing but i have always preferred a good solid single player experience.

You'd be surprised what starts a flame war with MGS4 fans. People worship this game like the second coming of Christ...if he was a video game that is.

Unfortunately trolls like to visit the console specific boards periodically and it's sometimes difficult to figure out if the person is just trolling other users, or genuinely just didn't like the game.

lol, I enjoy SW from time-to-time, but I usually avoid it. Personally console bashing just annoys me, especially when I'm on a console specific board and users are bashing a competing system.

But, But it is the second coming of Christ in Video game form.

However being serious for a second while I love MGS 4 I have been able to distance myself from that and other games which are out there. I believe that the bar was raised with the release and if it causes a knock on effect where other games try to be as good as the game then that for me is a good thing. Or another way of looking at itif you look at the film Flash Gordon and then watch Star wars then say another film in the space sci fi genre then you will see that each of the films have improved and moved the genre forward.

Very very very misleading thread tittle.lol...Anyway, I don't think that MGS4 over-all is perfect (ESPECIALLY ONLINE) but I do think that it is one of the best games of this-gen of gaming.

I love MGS4 for being the game that defines quality in such a high level that the rest of the games out now can't seem to capture, even Killzone 2 and I love that game because of how well it was executed!

i think MGS4 was a great game, the only downside to it is that its very short in game play, yet you get the long wait of having it installed on your hard drive. The online update, that i installed, man did it take forever. 1 half days >:(. Its just not your average stealth game unlike the other MGS games. =[

No because I've never played it. Just not my type of game. Maybe I'll buy it when it hits 20 bucks, but I'll just stick to Valkyria Chronicles. That game makes almost every game seem mediocre, but I don't hate VC for it. I blame the other games for not being as good as VC.

yokofox33
Haha, that's precisely what happened to me when I first played MGS4 back when it came out. Every other game I played in the 3 or 4 months after I played MGS4 just didn't seem like very good games. I'm playing VC right now, and I must say it's a great game. SRPG's aren't normally my thing but I made an exception for this game after playing the demo.

Everything doesn't seem mediocre but MGS4 goes SO FAR BEYOND everything else out there, it's hard for any game to compete. So much detail in that game... it's unparalleled.

It should be that way. (blaming every other game) But I don't feel MGS4 is the best game on the PS3. It's right up there though with my favorites (RE5, KZ2, LBP, Fallout 3, BioShock)

There are several things that turn me off of Metal Gear Solid. I've never been into the series but I would like to hear what some think about my worthless opinion :) 1) Snake's voice sounds like Butthead in Beavis and Butthead (it is a stupid critique, but its actually something I do find annoying) 2) Snake is a an old geaser 3) The Japanese humor strikes me as kind of lame. It seems sooooo nerdy. I watched some gameplay footage of one of those LOOOONG cutscenes, and the dialogue was way over the top, the humor they did throw in (I remember a little girl who had a tray and she kept offering snake coffee) was completely ludicrous

I never really "compare" games unless it's actually in the same genre. I may hold Metal Gear in higher priority over some other games. But I don't hate or find other games dull because I own MGS4. That's not much different than what those kiddies did with Halo. They treated it like every other game fell behind it. How can anybody be a gamer going on like that? There would be nothing to play.
