I never played any MGS games, will I be lost in MGS4?

I have no clue about the MGS storyline. Will that make the MGS4 experience not as good?

Cool, I never knew the psn had that. Im gonna take a look. Thanks!

I'm getting the mgs4 bundle on tuesday...I read a summary of the story its an amazing story one of the best game stories ever...rivals most movies trilogies...is very much like star wars

i only beat mgs2 and i didn't understand crap...until i read the summary...look on google for mgs story ,recap,gametrailers...its on one of their forums

its under metal gear solid entire story explained on the gametrailer forums and its a sticky...

lol, I have played the other games and I was still lost on occassion. The story is extremely convoluted, but overall they do a good job of refreshing your memory as to what characters fit in where... they have that MGS Database on the PSN that outlines the history of the MGS universe if you get too lost.

Don't let not playing the first three stop you from experiencing this game... it was really, really good.

If you don't get some kind of background info on the storyline you'll definately be lost for MGS4's story. So you should definately at least read the PSN summary or something before playing MGS4.

That being said, the emotional impact/enjoyment of the game is much stronger if you've played through the other games. When certain things happen(I won't spoil it of course) you just go, "WOW." Definately not the same attachment if you've only just read about the previous games.

Look I was the same as you I didn't know any of the story line until i started watching and not skipping any of the clips and i kinda remember it all them You understand once you get near the endHiddren

In my opinion, yes, purely because you'll be sitting through a cinematic cut scene saying "Who's eva? Who's Ocelot? and Who the hell is Solid Snake?"

A lot of the story is Explained through the database and the storylines itself but personally I'd recommend going to gametrailers.com and watching some of the MGS re-cap videos, it will give you a better grasp on the series.

In what game does sunny get introduced btw? i played 1 and 2 and she pretty much apeared out of nothing for me.

I dont mean what game she gets born but the game where raiden trys to save her and gets cyborged in the processhot114

Sunny (the character) was introduced in MGS4. "Olga's child" was known since MGS2 technically. But it never mentioned if it was a boy or girl and there was no name.

YOu shouldn't, but if I were you I would at least do some research and read up on the game. YOu may encounter problem the ithe game-play of the game, it is about STEALTH, and if you are really good you don't have to kill any enemies in MGS4 too. YOu can try and shoot your way through but it is a headache. Use the quiet, tactical approach. 8)
