The most perfect game in the market.
Graphics in simple words were awesome. Textures, and environments are very detailed, and you would be able but to notice that trees looks lively, wind moved in different directions and leaves were moving accordingly. Also the facial details of characters were remarkably detailed. Not only during cutscenes but also during gameplay.
Gameplay made this game even more spectacular. The ability to sneak around, kill or sedate the enemy quietly, knocking them out, and dragging bodies around gives the game a touch of fun. This kind of adventure never gets old
The story one of the glory points of MGS4. The story managed to introduce characters very well. It also managed to blend into the levels very well. Konami was trying to do was to give the players something to do while the story was running. For example, pressing "X" in specific times you will get to see photos from MGS3 and MGS2 that relate to the story. Players who played the previous games would be able to relate it to the current events in MGS4.
My only catch with MGS4 is the long cutscenes . They just keep dragging and dragging, some of them may take up to almost an hour. But you can skip the story if you want, yet you can't avoid the loading screen even if you don't want to watch the cutscenes. It is a problem, but not big enough to pass this game.
In conclusion, MGS4 is a beautiful game that everyone should try. I had a wonderful time playing it, and looking forward to my second playthrough. If you have a PS3 and don't own a MGS4 yet, I strongly advice you to get it. You will not regret it.
