Or maybe it's just their opinions. Halo 3 wasn't close to being the highest reviewed game last year, so what's the point of throwing that one in. And MGS is a harder series to get into when compared to GTA, so maybe that's why GTA was scored hinger.Joe211 said:
Pity its getting the same scores as MGS3.
I guess the hype for this game also came from the gameplay footage that promised a more accessible game for a casual audience.
I trust Edge, I'd also give MGS3 a 8-8.5 personally. All discreditng them are now just being fanboys - they do hit the spot right on.
Looks like kojipro might've messed up in trying to put soo much stuff in the game (shoulder cam, FPS view, traditonal top-down) something was bound to go wrong. Also as Eurogamer mentioned the loading time/installation time could be a real issue.
All in all, I know this game will satisfy me in regardless of a clunkfest it may be. But I honestly thought they'd iron out some of the problems.
I'm guessing if GregK was still around Gamespot it would've gotten something between 8.5-9.0

This basically seems to being reviewed like MGS3 was. Fans of the series love it to death, others like it and then some hate it. Although it looks like this one will be able to swing some people since the gameplay is apparently really high quality.
At the end of the day though it's Metal Gear. And if you've ever played one before you probably already know what your stance will be on it after playing it.

Well done.
So MGS4 is as good as MGS3 is as good as MGS2
Even though I have absolutely no interest whatsoever in this new Metal Gear Solid game, I have to post to give kudos to the biggest, most detailed and far and away the most impressive Official Thread first (39) posts in the history of mankind, ever. Well done! You have put a lot of work in it.
It almost had me hyped at one point, such is its amazing power. :O

On the podcast Ryan says not to bring the NES version of Metal Gear or Snake's Revenge for Kojima to sign unless you want to upset him.

It's a valid point for some games, but in MGS case the cutscenes are always so fucking great.Kagari said:

Thank you.
I guess they'll have different rules as to what they'll sign and for how many people at each event.
This is what Eurogamer wrote about the London event:

Yes! In the latest podcast, Payton mentions those MGS4 shirts are coming out June 12th along with the game at Uniqlo, and guess what? One of the only Uniqlo in the US is in NY in SoHo, which I visited with my friend just two days ago. Some of those shirts will be mine!
God, I love living in NY.
EDIT: Oh wow, Kojima will be both at Virgin and Uniqlo. Didn't notice he was going to be at Uniqlo. :O

I love long cutscenes and codec convos. The key is to sandwich lots of gameplay between them. MGS2 failed in this regard, but I think this game will get it right.
MGS3 had a great amount of gameplay, and it was weird how the game started and finished so theatrically, with so much exposition , and between that was an epic journey with minimal interruption (by MGS standards). I think MGS4 is going to have a very different rhythm but be similarly stacked full of GAME.

Oh, okay.
oh, for sure. It'd definitely be cool to have a GAF meetup in SF. We could swap PSN IDs and everything (or should I say, MGO character names? lol DDante said:
I wonder if there'll be a line and stuff to wait in like... early in the day or something (oh, and I do hope they make use of the IMAX theater in some way, that'd be freaking sweet; probably won't though).
