Support NeoGAF

[Wheeljack539]

Game of the Generation for sure. Single handedly put the PS3 back on the race and carried it forward (with a bit of help from Uncharted 2 haha)

NeoGaf GOTY...... Twice

I remember thinking back then..

'When the fuck do I get to play it, stop waffling for fucks sake'

Bit of help from UC2...

One is a goty winner the other is MGS4

Ahhh, I can now revive this oldie but goodie gif. Thank you MamaRobotnik.

I never understood the cut scene hate this game got at the time, you'd have to have played MGS 1,2,3 in order to play MGS4. After playing 1,2,3 you'd know that MGS games are almost movies and you'd know the games are made up of like 50% cutscenes.

When MGS4 came out i played and completed it in one weekend and loving it, MGS is all about story and the long cutscenes in MGS4 were like candy to a baby for an MGS fan, the MGS story and lore was so addictive, you wanted to know more and more.

The cutscenes and gameplay made MGS4 one of the best games ever made.

The hate never had anything to do with the cutscenes. People are just bad at articulating there feelings. The issue was always the cutscene to gameplay balance. In other words the 35 hours of cutscenes wouldnt of been an issue if there was actually more than 4 hours of gameplay. Mgs1-3 had a way way better balance between the two.

 

[CGNoire]

Isnt MGS4 like about 70% cutscenes compared to gameplay, literally?. I'm sure i read that somewhere.

Its worse. It about 35hrs of cutscenes to about 4hrs of gamplay.

 

[Neff]

Made me buy a PS3.

Same, and I wasn't even a Metal Gear guy. I simply couldn't resist a game which looked that good and had overt Snatcher references.

 

[Sgt.Asher]

I don't remember all the cutscenes besides a gay vampire and and a guy shitting himself. Blocked them out i suppose.

Bought the PS3 MGS4 bundle back in the day... but was crushed playing through it. The cut scenes were insufferable and way too long even by Kojima standards.

 

[Emedan]

Why the fuck Kojima traded the beloved David Hayter for Jack Bauer?

Will never forgive Kojima for this.

But it was supposed to be the last MGS game... it was going to tie up the Solid Snake story, it was always going to be cutscene heavy.

Personally, as someone who loved the MGS story i was loving the amount of cutscenes and length, the whole game was an amazing experiance that i'll never forget.

My issue isnt the long cutscenes or the amount of them its thd balance. 35hrs sure...but then make the entire gamd 60 hours so we can get just as much gameplay or close too. Mgs is all about dem kojima cutscenes no doubt....but its also supposed to be a game.

 

[GymWolf]

Replaying the first 3 games made me realize how bad these games aged so i'm probably not gonna buy this collection and save the good memories i have of mgs4 when i thought kojima couldn't miss...boy was i naive af...
