Alright so lets just get this out of the way right now. MGS 4 is probably one of the best games I have ever played. Ever. The graphics are amazing. The gameplay is tight and crisp. The story is engaging (if you have been following the series) and I have never felt more emotion towards video game characters than I have in MGS 4 and the MGS series in general. There are so many positive things that I can say about this game its astounding! Im still so blown away that I am having a hard time collecting my thoughts about it into a comprehensable post. Expect a full review coming in the next couple of days but let me just say that it is getting a 10 or some form of a perfect score.
On a quick side note.... If you have not already, please visit www.giantbomb.com and support that site. It is still in its infancy and is currently in the state of being just blog posts but it will be a fully fledged gaming site at somepoint this summer and is headed up by former gamespot employee's Jeff Gerstmann, Ryan Davis, and now Vinny Caravella and Brad (shoepod) Shoemaker
