    Not a great game

    I know a ton of people like this game. To be honest I am not sure why. I guess people have different taste in games. You wont really be "playing" this game much. There are TONS of cut scenes. TONS!!!! Most of the game feels like you are walking around trying to find the next cut scene. The controls are not terrible but they are still a little over complicated, that being said the controls are not so poor that you will walk away from the game because of them. The reason you may walk away from the "game" is that it doesn't have much "game" in it.

    It is not all bad I don't think. The graphics are amazing and the game play has been updated a bit from the older versions. I did like MGS a lot better then MGS4 however, so I'm not sure if the game play and the graphics helped at all. I would not recommend this game to most people. If you only have a PS3 this might be something for you too play while you wait for some of the (hopefully) really great games to come out.

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

      MGS4 blurs the line between cinematography and gameplay. 0

      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 ...
