Only good story from the MGS series, IMHO, is MGS1 and maybe MGS3, thats it. The story looks convoluted, too many characters, and it seems like its one big fan-service game to bring every character (dead or alive) back, because some fanboy cried himself to sleep when Meryl supposedly ate the dust.
It looks like another MGS2, WAY too preachy, especially with its cheesy ass political monologues. "THIS..is Liberty...THIS..is what the Patriots meant..!"
Kojima, too, needs to stop riding his ego, "Kojima's BACK!" "Another director? ...NO!...ONLY KOJIMA!"
... MGS4 story is going to be pwnage juice they use Crazy character juice that jus make you can shoot those suckerz in the head. Which ima gonna dos >.>... LAughing Octopus is on my hit list im not going to save her. YOU NEVER DEFAME THE SORROW INTO A DOLL!!!
And depending on a choice you made in MGS1, Meryl would either live or die, so it was never official which one really happened until she showed up in an MGS4 trailer. I don't think anyone is "back from the grave" in this one. and if they revive Big Boss, everyone dies by my hand.

Is that effin necessary? What happened to MGS1's simple and effective (yet realistic and dramatic) character intros?
"Camera stays fixed (held back by tech, but it worked), my name is ****" "Why are you here?" "I worked for ****, but its been pretty rough lately. It seems that they planted a bomb at ****." "where is this bomb?" "I believe its in ***, if you follow me I'll show you were."
mgs 2 had a pretty rubbish story, but it kepyt you going for at least half way through before becoming complicated, and it had the best cutscene ever in a game IMO, the one where the african woman deflects a bullet straight into dracs head

I think it died in MGS3 when the Pain was doing his Power Ranger impressions.
I still don't get what people mean when they say MGS2 had a bad story. It was a good story, but you just had to sit and listen to get all of it. It definitely had its twists and turns though, but the Arsenal part was my favorite part.

Ugh, whats worst..it had one of the best first "level" in a sequel. It really worked you up..and than you see an arm, attaching to Ocelot's body, turning him into Liquid...*sigh*

It was inconsistent and preachy. A story has to flow, and MGS2's story seemed so...
it seemed like kojima made the whoel story up as he went, and tried to tie it up with an overly talkative, and confusing ending.

I'll know when I finally get the chance to play it. But remember, just because you can't follow a story, it doesn't mean it is not good.
Although I will agree with the preachy and "cheesy ass political monologues" comments.
Well I believe it will have a good story, and really because it's the last game in series, as with any series, there's going to be some fan service, but overall I think it will have a good story like the other three MGS imo.

I honestly believe MGS has a good story, as do the millions of fans that follow it religiously. I think it's one of, if not, the greatest story I've ever played, watched, or read. Yeah, sure it can be corny, and of course it's off-the-wall crazy, but I never experienced a story so gripping, and engrossing like Metal Gear Solid. And MGS4 will be no different. In fact, it will be the best part yet.
I also think the after-death monologues of nearly every MGS1 boss were pretty cheesy as well. The MGS games take themselves way too seriously for thier own good.
MGS1 had my favorite story, MGS2's was a close 2nd and the most meaningful for me. You just had to play through it a couple times before you fully understood it and its ingenious plot. MGS3 was pretty boring for me until the last 3rd of it, plus it had the best ending so far in the series. But so far it looks like MGS4 is gonna be pretty awesome and epic.
No, I am sure that Kojima will put together a fabulous story, being that is this is supposedly the end of MGS.
I thoroughly enjoyed the stories from the other MGS games, and am certain this will be no different. And as for that "big Momma" line, I'm sure Kojima just threw that in as a joke.
I havn't played much MGS in my life, but from whatI have seen, the series does generally have a good story. I find it kinda silly how the bosses are usually have inhuman abilities. It seems out of place in the, for the most part, realistic MGS series.
