I sold the game after I finished Act 1. Not my cup of tea.

Insecure fanboys flame away!!

No, i can't blame you. I did finish the game, and i did think that it's a good game. However, that being said, this is probably the most overrated game i ever played.

I'm the kind of person who always puts gameplay over story, and i will admit, it had a very good story. Seemed a lot more like a movie than game, though. Cutscenes were WAAAYYYY too long in some parts, and i almost fell asleep during the end cutscene. And in certain parts of the story i just didn't really give a ****.

Also, i havent had the desire to play it again since i beat it. Been considering selling it.

[QUOTE="child_of_lileth"]

[QUOTE="AgentH"][QUOTE="child_of_lileth"]i never cry about movies and stuff, but when i saw the final scenes in mgs4 in the cemetary, i seriosuly cried about it till after the credits. there will never be a story as amazing as the metal gear series as a whole ever againAgentH



A game made you cry??? you gotta be kidding me!! what are you 8? :P

almost 21. it made me cry cause it was sad to see big boss die like that. i just really got into the story. i mean ive only been playin since back when mgs1 was the newest, but i grew up with these characters and it was just sad to see how it all ended. i mean snake gettin burned like that and not even knowin that wasnt even big boss and just bein forced to keep goin through all that sh*t. i know tons of people that cried at the end of that game. pretty much everyone i talked to back around when i came out said they had the same reaction. made we were just more into the story than most people

dude take it easy I was joking. I'm 20, and I cried too. :D

I cried too... I was like "dude, stfu already :cry:" lol

[QUOTE="xmitchconnorx"]MGS4 captured me like no other game before it. Easily the best game of this year and even this gen.Starscream35

game of the year ok,but gen...dont think so,i mean there is probably going to be better games after.

Well, I wish there will be to be honest. But we need to wait. Until now, I can't see it.

[QUOTE="pyromaniac223"]Can I borrow your crystal ball?JordanKid

Crystal ball... wtf? Dude, he is expressing his opinion not a fact (if you are replying to the GOTY comment he put). Anyways, I too believe MGS4 is GOTY worthy.

It was the GotY comment along with the "never going to have a game like this again" and "no developer like Kojima ever" quotes.

\

ANYWHERE I go on the PS3 forum you are ALWAYS there saying NEGATIVE things while people argue with you, you aren't half bad at arguing BUT WHYYYY and I know this because of your picture with that hat lmao

but seriously man why is it so bad to say that? It's not like hes saying it as factual information, its just how a lot of people feel, nothing has compared to the MGS series in terms of emotional value and story, why do you think so many people are obsessed with it, it is one of a kind and it stands on its own. If you want to get technical then their won't be a game like that again or a developer like him because everyone is unique, if someone else did MGS4 it would of been totally different then how it turned out, he is a unique individual and therefore no one will be him again and that means no one will think like him again and as a result his work will not be duplicated again. Now if their is going to be an equally good developer or game that's a different story because that wasn't said, just "not a game or developer like this again." I think their will be more great games to come, will they be better? I don't know...but theirs always a FEW (most games suck in my opinion) good ones.

I'm not necessarily saying anything negative. I just dislike blanket statements like that that ignore everything the future has to offer. I'm pretty sure that when Ocarina of Time came out, people said, wow, this is perfection, we will never see a game surpass this. But nobody can see into the future. There will inevitably be a game released that surpasses MGS4.

So, uh, a dev thinks his own game is good? Okay...

I'd like to borrow Kojima's crystal ball also, in that case.

You could translate that statement to whatever conclusion you want. I meant something through this statement and this is my own opinion.

I really enjoyed the first one on PS1, I played through the MGS2 on PS2 though got really frustrated by the cinemas. Watched the 20 minute opening Cinema of MGS3 got to the actual Gameplay, played for five minutes and then never turned it back on.

As I completed the game I stopped for a while. The feeling was we may never experience a game like this again. There simply is no game like it out there and there never will be ( maybe a MGS 5 ). It has deeply rooted my justification for buying a PS3 just like I did with PS1 and PS2. The game had all emotions a person can express. Hideo Kojima - master of the arts of video game production. There will be no other developer like this guy and for that I solute you. And I hope we maybe can look forward to even a MGS5. MGS4 was an absolute success in my book and should be nominated and grab the title for Game Of The Year.

Anyone who felt the same way please give us your views.

3000s
Seriously. No game or other form of media has impacted me as much as MGS4. It's the best or second best game I've ever played. GOTY for sure. :D The story and the way it emotionally impacted me really suprised me. I was drained after beating it but I loved it. Everything else was also better than I thought any game could be.

It's ironic that just when the hardware finally becomes available to do the series justice, it ends:cry:. I want a remake of all the MGS series with MGS4's graphics and overall quality.

To be honest, I never knew how much I liked Raiden until I thought he was dead. (end of Act 4) I really was sad that day and it surprised me that I was.

The ending was just pure shock lol

Metal Gear isn't everybody's "cup of tea". It's the same as every other game in existence. Everybody has different tastes.

Yeah I had a similar experience when I finished it. Mine was more of awe than sadness though. Its an incredible experience and I doubt any other game before it or for awhile after will invest the player at such an emotional level with the plot. To say the game was epic and moving is an understatement. Looking at the rest of the years line up I don't see any games that can trump it as GOTY.
