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

It's kinda the best game ever made.

泪目，意外还行的移植，也是圆梦了

I review this game , not as a hater against Konami, or to nock it as a bad port. Far from it it plays very well, no slowdowns, looks great, performs great. I review the game as ,well, a game, and i think it is a bad game. You could tell at the time Hideo Kojima wanted to get away from the MGS franchise, and it shows. It is just cinematic after cinematic, with very little gameplay, using the constant flashback and nostalgia grabs to carry the game. Frankly , i could of just as easily not played this and been happy. By the time i got back to Shadow moses, i had checked out. Shame. Play it by all means, im not nocking the port as i said, i just don't like this game.

While many disagree, to me this is the ultimate MGS experience, while 1 2 and 3 are each excellent on their own, i think MGS4 is just the pinacle of both gameplay and cinematic experience. Gameplaywise, the game is perfect to me, the movement and stealth action have this fluidity and smoothness that previous MGS do not have, the movement options given to the player make the stealth experience very satisfying and unique since you have so many options to deal with the enemies. Also the weapon variety is awesome, there are like 60 different weapons you can use, some having unique abilities. The octo camo while being simple, is so fun to play with, very satisfying for stealth and very fun, i always find myself pressing againts different surfaces just to discover different camo patterns. The cinematic side might be what people dislike the most about this game, since the are like 9 hours of cutscenes throughout the game, but i mean if you don't want to watch cutscenes then you can just skip them, the game is very open to skipping basically 95% of cutscenes, i myself skip them every playthrough since i like the gameplay more. But if you give the cutscenes a shot, they are awesome, at least to me, it is literally like watching a very good movie, i just don't see the problem of having very good (while yeah maybe a bit too long) cutscenes with the option to just skip if you don't feel like not playing for 10-20 minutes. And if you're gonna go with the "MGS4 is silly" route (Raiden breakdancing with Gekko tied up to his legs, Akiba ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ himself, all the pervert B&B stuff, many many more), i just think MGS was always like this, maybe MGS1 a bit less but come on, Snake having to find out who Meryl is by looking at her ass? Raiden getting his balls grabbed by the president? EVA hitting Young Ocelot with a motorcycle shoryuken? Yeah, MGS was always like this, 4 just made it way more exotic and flashy, and to me it turned out great, i love all the over the top stuff like Vamp and Gekkos vs Raiden. I think the worst part about this MGS is the lore, its way less interesting at least to me than 1 2 and 3, but i personally don't care that much about lore so i can ignore that part. Easter eggs and secrets: this game has so much secrets and hidden interactions that really give the game charm. MGS was always like this, its just that 4 being the "last classic MGS" did it in a very nostalgic (fan service tbh) way, and i love it. As a completionist: i really enjoy 100%ing this game, its very replayable and you can finish a playthrough in like 3-4 hours easy, maybe its a bit much that you have to beat the game 8 times at least to earn all emblems (and ♥♥♥♥ that 35 hour requirement for the chicken emblem), but the gameplay makes it easy for me to just replay this game over and over again. Honorable mention to the Rex vs Ray robot fight, its so out of place but so fun to play, i always look forward to that fight. TL;DR This game is the ultimate classic MGS experience, with very solid gameplay and very good cutscenes, although you might want to be in the mood for watching a movie-like if you plan on watching all cutscenes.

Beautiful movie freed from PS3 prison, oh, some gameplay too, I guess. So happy to have this game on da go to mess around with
