MGS4 is a great game but why Hideo!!!?? (spoilers)

Act 4 was by far my favirote and then act 5 comes....... Now the best time I have ever had in any metal gear was MGS2 on the boat playing as Snake. So when I got onto Outer Heaven I was so stoked for an amazing inside and outside experience like no other. It started out strong and then it was over in a snap (if you don't count the 2 hours of cinematics). I was really looking forward to exploring that ship!

a friend told me that for every 10min of gameplay theres 40min of video

ill admit that the game minus the videos was very short but still well worth it and a great way to wrap up the series

You can't really make that section too long, after all
[spoiler] Ocelot is about to shoot the satelite down and Metal Gear Rays are picking the USS Missouri apart [/spoiler]

That part of MGS 2 was also my favourite part of the whole metal gear series. I was hoping for more of that in MGS 4, but there wasent a moment in the game that I liked as much as the Tanker in MGS 2. I thoguht I woudl see soem of that in Act 4, but every enemy was a robot, so there wasent much sneaking.Haseokicksass

Actually you could sneak all the way through in that 1st part of act 5, I have managed to, it's not difficult you just have to be patient and check your surroundings and go from above.

Act 5 still has one of the coolest/most emotional gaming experiences of all time when you walk through that microwave bit.navstar29

Imo it was the perfect length it got to the point had some nice twists and stuff and the button mashing bit was quality with the split screen then it was topped with an awesome boss battle, i was left very satisfied.Steve_ps

the boss battle brawl was INTENSE

there were times i actually thought my button mashing wouldnt be enough and that id have to go faster which seemed impossible.

Er, I didn't cause ONE alarm during that part. We're talking about the part where you get fired up into the ship? There's a lot of crawl spaces and what not in that area that made it easy to not get spotted if ya look. VERY great game, was semi short, didn't care if there were a lot of cut scenes because they were so vital to the story. He wrapped up ALL the questions of the previous games in one game, that's pretty impressive. Hehe.

OK, if you were a Metal Gear fan, you knew what you were getting yourself into. If not then, you must've had fair warning. MGS is MGS and nothing can change the way Hideo chooses to make his games. If he did, it wouldn't be an MGS game anymore, now would it.Liquid-Prince

My first time, I just killed everything. After a while, they stop coming, I think I may have killed over 50 enemies in that small section alone, I emptied both the 5.56 and P90 bullets (around 1800 total) plus the many grenades used on Gekkos. Its doable in Normal, but hard and above is just impossible, I The Boss I just sneaked, its quite easy too, It took me 6 Mk22 bullets (there is a box with them near the beginning so it was not that bad.

The most difficult part imo is the beginning itself of the game, those 2 screens with no equipment is tedious.
