Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Charts
Each storefront's own chart, in its own country — the closest public signal to sales where none is published. A country missing from a list is one we don't collect there, not one where the game doesn't chart.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 102.43/day in the week to Aug 28 → 237.57/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

woulda been perfect if it came with mgo2
Loving the Movie so far, can't wait to get to some gameplay.
It’s commendable of Konami to make us wait until we’re suffering from back and lower back pain so that an entire generation that didn’t own a PS3 when they were teenagers can experience the ultimate Old Snake experience

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 2: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

I'm a newcomer to the series and I binged the first three games before starting this one. I had no expectations of it being good or bad other then absolutely loving mgs 1-3 so I was hoping that mgs4 would seal the deal with the Solid Snake story line. Unfortunately, I cannot say that this game has a satisfying ending. Kojima seems to have made fan service a priority over a good story. Almost the whole game is fan service slop that feels made specifically to evoke emotions from the player. This is why I believe much of the community likes this game since they've been playing the series for much longer then I have so those nostalgia bait and fan service moments hit harder for them. To me the just seem cheap. Secondly, I believe MGS4's story even ignoring the fan service is not up to par whatsoever with the first 3 games. It feels like Kojima wrote himself into a cage, and this game is him trying to explain everything for the community, but I'm not happy with the explanations and I don't see why he felt like it was necessary TO explain everything. It's ok to leave things unknown in your game. Overall, the first two acts of this game felt like they had a lot of potential, but after that it was a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of ♥♥♥♥♥♥ story and fan service.
I'm giving a bad review because there's a couple of audio compression problems on some pre-rendered/live action and credit sequences. Also ♥♥♥♥ the secondary launcher, literally ads nothing other than some extra content in exchange for making it more annoying to get in game. Charging money while these kinds of mistakes are present feels wrong. Other than that, unlike the Pace Walker release the mouse control is just fine. Great game, ♥♥♥♥ Konami.
I was able to take a shower, go to work, come back and eat dinner and there was STILL a cutscene being played
My gear is metal. My snake is solid. My boss is big.
Kojima at his best, Kojima at his worst. Old Snake is the best protag ever
Metal Gear Solid 4 is a towering achievement in game design. It beautifully merges heavy philosophical themes with highly polished tactical action. For anyone seeking a deeply moving, blockbuster story that treats its characters and its audience with profound respect, this game remains an absolute, must-play classic.
Eighteen years I wanted MGS4, but I compromised. I emulated RPCS3 at 40 FPS instead.
