I love MGS4, story-wise..its intense, beutifull and memorable, More so than 3.

But gameplay-wise, i just feel MGS3 is better, i prefer the cover system they've replaced, being able to break necks and interigate your enemy. MGS3 story is also more simple and fun to play (thanks to some of the best boss fights/enemies, IMO)

Not only that, i prefer the Jungle setting. It always felt so right for a MGS game and overall stealth to be done in a jungle enviroment, very satisfying.

I was very dissapointed when MGS4 used a much slower and honestly UNEEDED cover/wall hug system, and replacing the neck breaking with a choke hold.

but i do feel MGS4 deserved a 10. MGS3 should have scored better tho. But still an AAA title (subsistance)

Thoughts?

MGS3 had a better story and ending by a little. But other than that everything else was better in MGS4.

So no, I still prefer 4 over 3.

I played the original MGS3 and I gotta say the camera sucks hardcore. I couldn't stand it.

Play MGS3: Subsistance. Much better.

Camera for the original didn't work well because most of it was OUTDOORS, so the camera was higher, unlike in 2, where is either in a building or facility, etc.

I really, really want the first three MGS games remade with MGS4 control scheme and graphics. That would make me buy a PS3 even if they cost $2000.

No more MGS 1 remakes and no MGS3 yet. MGS2 is the next one in queue.

That would be fantastic hehe, The new Mech Warrior mod for Crysis looks great, as do a few other cool looking mods (with new moves,suit abilitys, voice acting, cut scenes,new levels, cutom sounds, new leaves *pine tree', etc..*).

That Crysis editor is unmatched:)

MGS2 would be nice. It's still one of my favourite games of all time, but using that control scheme straight after MGS4 is jarring.

nope. I do like MGS3,but there was no real backstory to the bosses. Which was kind of a turn off. Since I felt no impact fighting them. That was only my real issue with the game.

bosses in mgs3 was way more interesting than the B&B corps. everything else MGS4 takes the cake. (and not having the ability to snap necks do sucks kinda.)
