I'd rather have Splinter Cell Double Agent than MGS4.

After playing MGS4, I was stunned with the graphical aspect/story aspect of the game, but once you actually get into the gameplay, I found it ok, but nothing amazing. Mabey it's because I've gotten used to Splinter Cell and pefer their way of a stealth game.

If I had to review MGS4 I'd give it a 8.0, while Splinter Cell a 9.

You can say ass. And giving MGS4 an 8 is just insulting. The gameplay allows you to play through the game pretty much however you want. That's better than giving you a "stealth or die" option, IMO. I'm not too crazy about SC myself but yeah. Give credit where credit is due, at the very least.ethanpaige

I was never into Splinter cell double agent only played it once since christmas. Anyway so you can just play it by killing everyone and not doing it stealthfully? Thinking about buying it.

I dunno if you can, if I reported you right now (Which im not going to) I bet they would mod you. One day someone said something stupid and i made a post with the "eye roll" smiley and I got modded. Its embarrassing!

Could not agree anymore with that.

I use to appreciate Splinter Cell, I played it on the Playstation 2 and liked it, I enjoyed the multiplayer in Pandora Tomorrow but then started to get annoyed with Chaos Theory's multiplayer, it was the same game with different music and more maps, although the single changed for the good, but then Double Agent lost me, in my opinion the multiplayer could have been better as well as the single player, I cannot speak for the Xbox's version or the Xbox 360's version as they got the better deal.

You play one splinter Cell, you've played them all.
That's what I hate about the series, it's the same game over and over, yet we keep buying them.

As far as MGS4 goes, You can't ever really judge a game UNLESS you beat it, which I'm guessing you haven't.

You beat Splinter Cell, right? Why not give MGS4 the same level of fairness? There must be a reason GS/GI/IGN gave it the Perfect 10.

I'd rather have MGS4 over Splinter Cell Double Agent, Call of Duty 4 and grand theft Auto 4.

I really, really want MGS4. Im a huge fan of the Metal Gear series.

MGS = 9.5 in my book, just like GTA4. Don't get me wrong though, MGS4 is awesome, splinter cell is nothing compared to it. I'll admit though, the cutscenes are pretty brutal (looooong).

because their journalists have no integrity I just seem to keep repeating my self but here we go again no game is 10/10 perfect for that to happen that game should please every gamer and have no faults I would give it a 9.5 because the story and immense cut scenes seem to take precedence in this game and that annoys me personally, if I wanted to watch a movie I would rent a DVD, at least in mass effect I can interact with the story and not just sit there watching a CG movie.

Absolutely.

Double Agent was nothing compared to Chaos theory.SpinoRaptor

Absolutely. DA was such a disappointment

Giving MGS4 an 8 is an insult . It is more worth its 10 than GTA4 was . And with a point 5 system like Gamespot, a must-have game should deserve a 10 .

The movies aren't CG, they're rendered all in real time....

Splinter Cell IMO was awesome, but Double Agent was not I don't know what they were thinking with that game.

That is your opinion, but not mine.

You damn right son. Even I'd prefer SC. I've never liked an MGS anyway.

Endgame_basic

No one said they were prerendered video files. If they're rendered in real time, that still makes them CG (computer generated) movies.

The bitter jealousy continues.

I almost gaurantee the TC hasn't even played MGS4. That makes this thread, worthless.

Go buy it and play it, don't cry that it's not any good because you don't have it. I have owned my PS3 for 8 months, can't it have 1 decent game without everybody getting their panties in a wad? Hell, it was long overdue in my eyes, so give it some credit.

Giving a console 1 credit because it needs it is not hwo it works, it must deserve it before you jsut give the credit away. MGS4 deserves part credit in my eyes. It's got nice cut scenes, but the gameplay is harldy revolutionary, and any other game would be considered a rehash if it didn't change rgeatly from game to game.Phazevariance

It doesn't NEED it, it is just well deserving. MGS4 to me was a better experience than GTA4 was. I consider them both solid 9.5's using GS scoring, and 9.7's using IGN.

However, I'm not a reviewer. They gave PS3 the first AAAAE of this Gen. Can't argue with fact :(

You think MGS4 is an 8? That's insulting. It's turning out to be one of the greatest games ever made, the story is top notch, the production values are top notch, grafics are stunning, steath play is rewarding, action play is exciting, boss's are fenomenal, the attention to detail is superb. By far the best game this gen. Imo maybe just the best game ever game.Eddie-Vedder

It's up there, but I consider it the same league as GTA4/Bioshock/MGS4 and Gears might barely make the cut. Gears was a really good game, they just need to open it up more, I want more grapples/options.

If every game had the amount of customization that MGS4 does, I'd be a very happy gamer.

then you, my friend are insane. i would kill for MGS4 on my 360 right now. KILLI-AM-THE-G-MAN

WELL, you better start the rampage
