    Metal Gear Solid is one of those single player experiences that anyone who calls themselves a gamer would be crazy to miss. Hideo Kojima has ended the tale of Solid Snake with an experience that can not be called anything other than epic. Given the story can at times seem a bit over the top it is so well presented it and a few movement / control shortcomings can easily be forgiven. This is single player experience any fan of the series ( or anyone new abet some brushing up on MGS history would be beneficial) can really sit down any enjoy.
    Overall a single player masterpiece.

    However it only receives 4 1/2 stars due to its cumbersome online that it tedious to set up and could really use some fine tuning. But that still dosent make me recommend it any less.

    So if you haven't picked it up by now and own a PS3, do yourself a favor and get this game if only to play through this amazing experience one time.

Although at the same time it's more accessible to western audie...

      MGS4 blurs the line between cinematography and gameplay. 0

      Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (Limited Edition)(PlayStation 3) by microwavedapple on July 21, 2008

      Metal Gear Solid has always been praised (and sometimes bashed) by it's long cutscenes, movie-style cinematography and mind bending plot twists. Metal Gear Solid 4 continues this trend by not only reaching this goal, but by blasting it into hyper-space. But what hasn't been done well in a Metal Gear Solid game is a perfect control system, an in-depth and varied gameplay and intense action, to which Metal Gear Solid 4 not only improves upon these elements, but perfects them.Snake's final chapter ...
