METAL GEAR SOLID 4: Guns of the Patriots - Master Collection Version

Loving the Movie so far, can't wait to get to some gameplay.

Finally out of PS3 purgatory. And Konami actually did a really god job porting it out.

woulda been perfect if it came with mgo2

The best part of MGS4 is how you'll see Snake in the most worst and depressed state of his life ever, then a funky little bald monkey shows up and makes him laugh a bit.

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.

Oh boy. I had high hopes for this one. I played all the 3d Metal Gear titles besides Metal Gear Acid and I have to say that this game kind of ranks low. I had hoped for it to be in my top 3 at least. I had higher expectations for the game itself. They added many gimmicks of which many you dont even need to use. You can lie on the floor roll around and get on your back and aim etc but for what? This is just an example but the gimmicks and movement dont fit the game. The levels and enemies are like from ps2/ps1 gen but the gimmicks and movement arent kind of. So basically they wasted their potential. Pros: *Gunplay *Some characters *Story ties up all loose ends Cons: *Cringe Moments *Some Characters *4th wall breaks *Levels *Enemies *The game isnt too hard but some parts/bosses of the game are very finicky. *Nostalgia bait *3 hour story sequences (do yourself the a favour and watch the story after the last boss fight on youtube on 2x and skip it ingame/credit writing is unskippable) All in all i found Peacewalker even though it was a mobile title more fun so go figure. All in all 7/10 might even be a 6.5. So yeah a huge let down and that's why it will get a thumbs down from me.

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.
