Maybe that’s exactly why people like MGS. They know what they’re getting into. It’s a different kind of genre that heavily interleaves the storyline like an interactive move. If you have ADD or something, stick to Tekken.

Nice blog *cough* sarcasm *cough*, next time you should write: “Why so many people love Halo and Gears of War so much”. The name of the site doesn’t give this article too much credibility either…

But I’ll be be serious now…

Halo and GoWa is the “hot chick” you were talking about, not MGS4. Everyone nowadays prefer to blow stuff up mindlessly, whereas in MGS4 that doesn’t happen. As a game, is unarguable excellent, but not perfect (the controls aren’t very intuitive sometimes). If you take your time, you can complete this game in about 24 hrs without getting bored once. Got any problem with cutscenes? Skip them!

As a story, well, it’s very emotive and philosophical. For a game, the story is great, not the best, just great. It’s easy to say the story sucks if you don’t understand it, you just have to be open-minded about these sort of things, and not take them too seriously of course (like you did).

hmmm… lets see who likes mgs… oh, right! actual critics! also consumers, and people who dont say shit sandwhich in every single sentance.
coming from an mgs fan, yes, there are a lot of cutscenes. but if youve played the previous games, you’ll know exactly whats going on, and will shit bricks.

besides… how can you not go for a game with solid snake? he’s cleary the biggest badass in video game history, him and captain price

If you think MGS4 sucks so bad as well as Halo, then what games do you tend to like? MGS4 is what a action/adventure RPG is suppose to be. You are the kickass protagonist Solid Snake and you play the story that has been built up over many other games in the series. Yeah there are a lot of cutscenes that makes the game very much like a movie, but if you pull the stick out of your ass for 5 minutes and just lay back and enjoy it or just skip it then it is really not a problem. I mean the creator was summing up the entire story and everything that happened to the characters in this game. I wasn’t surprised at all that it had a lot of movies and cutscenes. But the game is still very open. Yeah you have your missions that you are suppose to be performing but it doesn’t mean you have to do it there way. The way they made the game was so you can sneak around like they say or go in and make as much noise as you want. The controls aren’t perfect but then again they changed a few things in this one compared to the old ones. I work at a store where I talk to gamers everyday and all of them rave about MGS4, even the critics who had bad things to say still gave it very high scores in their ratings. And yeah I am not surprised that it has a Japanese feel to it since the creator is Japanese, but it was no different than any action movie made in Hollywood. Most of the cutscenes were as enjoyable or more enjoyable than a lot of the action movies that come out in America today. Gaming is suppose to be fun quit trying to make it all serious with your bullshit.

While you have every right to dislike/hate MGS4, I find it hilarious that you just can’t get that other people don’t feel the same way as you.

I love MGS4, and if you want to judge me on that, then by all means; go right ahead. I love it for what it is, not because I have some messed up notion of what it should be. What makes you think that you’re in any way QUALIFIED to make that judgement?

Hah, at least someone else reached the same conclusion I have. MGS 4 is a shit sandwich of unrealistic plot twists, buggy levels, plays like a dull shitey 3rd person shooter. I’m playing MGS 2 right now and it’s BETTER then 4. Amazing isn’t it? Sure Raiden and his missus having domestics over the codec, but it is nowhere near as pretentious as 4 is. Naomi is clearly the most stupid character to have ever existed in computer game history. It’s not a stealth game either. You can just run and gun it if you want, which doesn’t make it a very tactical espionagey game does it?

Anyone who still supports Metal Gear Solid but hasn’t played 4 should just write a fan fiction of how they’d have ended it and just leave it at that. The disappointment I feel about 4 makes it one of the worse games I’ve ever “played”. Namely because there wasn’t much playing in it.

All other of comments are bullshit too. Please take off the blinkers and close your mouths. You’re attracting flies.

@KMD you all the other posts are bullshit? Oh please, do elaborate why yours isn’t! You posted nothing but opinions (your opinions suck btw). You simply have the wrong point of view about this game, everything you just said is discussible.

One of the worst games you have ever played? Well, it happens that some (actual) critics consider MGS4 to be one of the best games ever made, pesonally, I wouldn’t go that far, but it’s very, very good. Nuff said.

WARNING *SPOILERS AHEAD*

Do you want to know why my opinion isn’t bullshit saywhat?? Frankly it’s because it’s the truth that you refuse to see because of your rampant fanboyism. If you turned off your blinkers and played the actual game; you’d realise that it’s overhyped bullshit plot flatters the tempermental AI and poppycock characters. The characters (with the clear exceptions of Raiden and Sonny) felt hackneyed; with horrid lines that has destoyed the credibilty of the entire series for me. For instance, take the character Otacon; Indeed, he is a whiny bitch but he’s a bright guy right? Can you explain to me why he shagged Naomi, the woman who poisoned his best friend with Foxdie? People don’t shag people they’ve just meet; especially people who’ve poisoned someone they care about with an irreversable disease. Bit of a logic gap isn’t it?

I did a wee experiment actually. I decided to see how much ‘game’ was in this game if you just took out the cutscenes and just ran for it. My original game was 15 hours+ due to my inane ability to kill myself in new ways, bosses who zoned on my location almost immediately and the cutscenes which lasted an age everytime I made any sort of progress. Then when you begin a level, cue another cutscene, and codec moments featuring Otacon preaching instructions to old crunchy Snake.

I made it to Act 5 in 6 hours. I would’ve made it in 4 hours+ if it weren’t for the fact that Act 3 is hopelessly broken. I witnessed a guy whom I was following reset his AI route, getting halfway near a van, then turns around and runs away, and does the same thing about six or seven times before the game gave up the ghost, and planted the bloke somewhere else.

I am indeed rather shocked that it got such high praise from “actual” critics. I’m reading the scores now actually, all 9s and 10s across the board. Problem with that of course is that critics are susceptable to conformity and have to agree to whatever their publishing company allows them to say. With advertising money at stake, they can’t be too gushing. ;)

If you disagree with what I and the OP says, that’s fine, but don’t preach to me that I have no say because I’m not an actual critic and that I think that MGS 4 is one of the worst games I’ve ever played.

In terms of 3rd person shooters, GOW, Freedom Fighters, and even Dark Sector beats this game. Nuff said yeah?

@KMD so, that’s all you have to say? You think MGS4 is one of the worst games you have ever played just because of a few AI problems, some reactions from characters and plot that you didn’t expect or didn’t want to happen? Dude, I’ve heard so many people bitching so much about this game, that it’s unbelievable. Despite they’re being right sometimes, everything the haters complain about are minor problems and can be VERY easily ignored, hence why they are whiny little bitches.

You complain about some of the characters’ reactions and plotlines right? First off, is merely an opinion, second, while you complain about it, in other games is not even worth the discussion, because there aren’t any other games that have a complex and deep storyline like MGS4 does.

This game is not perfect, I never said it was, but the previous titles weren’t perfect either, and I don’t even think that MGS4 has the best plotline in the series, but it’s probably the best this generation yet.

There’s really not that much to debate, it won’t do any good to discuss each other’s opinions.

By the way, I just want to let you know that the games you just have discribed are nothing compared to MGS4, simply because it’s different genres.

Gears of War (and Freedom of Fighters, I suppose) doesn’t have a story (complex, deep, emotional and philosophical like MGS4), and it’s “Run and shoot the motherfucker”. Like I said, MGS4 is a Stealth game where you have to be patient and think of a way without getting seen, it’s not some mindless TPS where you just blow stuff up for no apparent reason, there are consequences and the game becomes much harder if you decide to just run and shoot like there was no tomorrow.

Dark Sector? Lol, you mean the Resident Evil 4 CLONE! I don’t have anything more to say.

@Saywhat? Well, I could go on about how they may as well have crossed out the words “tactical espionage” out of the tagline but I digress, it is one of the worst titles I’ve ever played; equal onto Assassin’s Creed for sheer disappointment and bloated hype.

That’s just me I guess.

I was comparing MGS 4 to games where you are actually playing and controlling the character, not watching cutscenes with a dreadful sense of ennui, wishing you were the one making the action happen.

You don’t need to be stealthy if you have a tran

Want a good comparison? Compare games from the same genre:

MGS vs. Splinter Cell

Splinter Cell doesn’t have as many cutsenes, but if you say that SC is better then you suck man. You make things look simple, if a game has so many cutscenes no matter how good the gameplay is, it automatically falls under every existing game. That’s not how things work. MGS4 is story driven, and seriously, if you don’t like it, then there’s shallow and uninspired bosses that you can kill in almost any other game.

“You don’t need to be stealthy if you have a tran”
Again, you make it look too simple. In Extreme difficulty you can’t buy tranq ammo, or you can choose by not to use it. Now that is simple.

MGS4 is boring, has a bad story which fell out of my ass after I ate a mexican (literally), and poorly programed. How many freaking times does it need to load? The devs on this game never heard of streaming stuff in or loading during the overly long cutscenes. Here is how the game plays: install, loading, cutscene, loading, play, loading, cutscene, loading, cutscene, loading, play, loading…. well you get it. With a 6GB install it’s ridiculous. The gameplay was mediocore and the story was just awful (fighting with a sword in your teeth…WTF). I love the excuses like you haven’t played the others so you don’t get it, but I can give someone HL2 and they don’t have to play the first one to love it. Or it is story driven, what does that mean? Does it mean that it is an interactive movie? If it is then it is worse than Urban Legend:Final Cut, which is my most hated movie of all time. I have played story driven games where characters make choices which effect the outcome of the game, like bioshock. The problem with MGS4 is that the story drives nothing in the game. It is just like japanime and role playing games, full of useless dialogue which could have been cut out or drastically downsized to allow for more and better gameplay. You can’t post stuff like this and not expect to be attacked b/c just as people blindly follow so many other things they believe the majority who say the game is good, and somehow end up with the same brainwashed opinion. Ladies and gentlemen I present to you Johnny Storm, flame on.

all you people are giving this moron a reason to live, let him go

THE PAIN!!!!THE PAIN!!!!!!!!!THE PAIN!!!!!!!!!

you may disagree with the OP all you want, but hideo; for all his smart arsed buffoonery has never heard of the words “understatement” and “cohesion”

f$&@ing twat.

Hahahaha! It’s like you’re bashing apples and promoting oranges, almost everything you say comes down to opinion! Bashing MGS4 because it’s based in Anime? Are you that retarded? The story is awful you say? Well it just might be awful, but at least there’s a story to criticize, isn’t there?

@snuffalofagus
“I love the excuses like you haven’t played the others so you don’t get it, but I can give someone HL2 and they don’t have to play the first one to love it.”

That’s probably one of teh most ignorant comments I’ve ever heard, and that’s saying a lot! It’s not an excuse, “snuffyboy” if you never played the previous MGS you don’t know what’s going on in the story, it’s simple as that.

“You can’t post stuff like this and not expect to be attacked b/c just as people blindly follow so many other things they believe the majority who say the game is good, and somehow end up with the same brainwashed opinion.”

Attacked? Uhhhooooo, so frightened! Do you think someone gives a fuck? And blindly follow? Really? I’m sure you have the statistics on you’re side, and have talked to a lot of people who dig this game, but I wonder if you’ve actually ever played any MGS to have a clue of what you’re talking about.

“Here is how the game plays: install, loading, cutscene, loading, play, loading, cutscene, loading, cutscene, loading, play, loading”

Are you done crying?

“Ladies and gentlemen I present to you Johnny Storm, flame on.”

You’re the one who’s flaming, dipshit.

LOZL youse guyz ares supidsd.

youse are allz ion teh flaaames…

MGS4 is good the same way gang rape is good; like you; you’re a rapist, for the rapist participating, it is really good but for the victim you just have to shut up and swallow what they give you to swallow.Since you are a big fan of “alternative” entertainment, which features quite a lot of mind rape.

To be honest it may be plausible that in fact many people here are shallow and as such cannot understand the intricate plot, or what Hideo Kojima was trying to say; it is possible that unlike the other MGS titles where he tried to apply current events in his games with a surreal twist reminicent of anime or manga that MGS4 is far beyond the common intellect, as such i would like to recommend that you watch a film called Scanners for it’s deep thought provoking and intellectual plot twist have been lost on many. It would simply be a dire shame to see such a masterpiece be wasted on our simple shallow minds; that being said, maybe, just maybe MGS4 is out of reach for the small minority because many people look, listen and view the plot as nothing more than a frantic mess, similar to a parnoid schizophrenic spreading faeces on his wall, and sobbing at the beauty of it all.

That’s just my opinion as a bombs disposal expert.

I agree with Stillman; i enjoy MGS as a series but MGS4 was like a small handicapped child that just doesn’t stand much of a chance against ridicule; i mean it’s not like it the case of a mother on thalidomide, if that was the case then we would ease up on pointing and shouting at the blatant deformaties….we would even forgive that 3rd arm.

Because Major Zero had it coming…

@SayWhat?

Glad to see you’re here to defend this precious pile of shit called MGS4.

“That’s probably one of teh most ignorant comments I’ve ever heard, and that’s saying a lot! It’s not an excuse, “snuffyboy” if you never played the previous MGS you don’t know what’s going on in the story, it’s simple as that.”

About the story, you don’t need to play the previous games just watch the retrospectives on gametrailers. Even without those the sheer amount of crap in the cutscenes shows you more than enough to understand what is happening. I’m sure the majority of the world would be just as bored and disappointed with the story in this “story based game” as I was.

“Attacked? Uhhhooooo, so frightened! Do you think someone gives a fuck? And blindly follow? Really? I’m sure you have the statistics on you’re side, and have talked to a lot of people who dig this game, but I wonder if you’ve actually ever played any MGS to have a clue of what you’re talking about.”

I played the first MGS when I was much younger and enjoyed it, but after finishing MGS4 I can’t say the same thing about it.

“Are you done crying?”

I’m sorry I didn’t realize that stating facts constituted crying. If that is the case then saying, “the sky is blue” would be crying. Poor programing is all I was pointing out, but God knows Hideo Kojima could never do anything wrong.

“You’re the one who’s flaming, dipshit.”

Try to grow up and be a little more polite when addressing actual people. As for the flaming we are all part of that just by posting our opinions which are so strongly opposed. What I said before was just to point out what was happening and would continue to happen here.

@snuffalofagus

“this precious pile of shit called MGS4.”

Yeah, I’m sure it is just because you and few others say so. People who love MGS4 should just ignore THEIR OWN OPINION and the dozens of lengthy reviews of respectful game critic sites (e.g. IGN) then listen to a guy who didn’t even played all the MGS titles and writes a dozen of lines basically stating that MGS4 is nothing but a pile of s***.

“I’d like to state here that the story was crap and there were a lot of loading times (exaggerates to emphasize his post), RATING: A pile of shit.”

Nice going, dude! But anyway, I think it’s more rational to “blindly follow” the critics and the millions of gamers, don’t you think so?

It’s amazing that people who defended MGS4 have used enumerous solid arguments, and they were being somewhat fair for the guy who wrote this article. But when haters started to post… wow!

They state opionions like if they were posting actual facts, like íf there was no possible argument even from the most qualified critic or hardcore gamer.

The only ACTUAL FACTS you can see here is: Lots of cutscenes - which can be enjoyed or SKIPPED - and loading times - which is a bit annoying, but doesn’t affect the gameplay -, nothing more. If I wanted, I’d bash this game too, there are way more problems than this, but I just tend to like the game, instead of bitching about every minor problem.

Also, are you comparing watching retrospectives of gametrailers and ACTUALLY playing through the games? Riiight, no comments. Oh, no wait, I think this is the part where you say: “MGS wasn’t never about playing, it was always about watching cutscenes the whole time”.

I tell you this, posting opinions is one thing, but when you talk crap all the time and say something that any other brainless hater would’ve say is another. Just save your breath man, seriously.

SayWhat? maybe you didn’t know this but most of the reviewers who rated this game so highly were fans of the series, so they gave biased reviews. As for the rest of your post…it’s incoherent crap and you exemplify the pitiful mgs fanboy which I have come to expect, get a life. I know you need to have the last word, so I won’t be posting again to see you ramble off more pointless crap b/c you have nothing better to do other than defend this game with all of your “facts” and “solid arguments.” Maybe if the reviewers were allowed to point out the crazy amount of loading times and poor gameplay/cutscene ratio the scores would have been more on par with the actual game.

Why MGS4 is the best game ever:

Place list of fanboy crap here

List of “fanboy crap” starting:

Am I a fanboy? No. Do I have a life? Yes. Do I need to have the last word? Hell yes! Maybe I take this kind of things too serious, but no one’s perfect either.

Aside from your desperate ways of trying to insult me, I don’t see any more “interesting” stuff to talk about, maybe it’s simply because MGS4 is such a great game and no one can say other wise.

“Why MGS4 is the best game ever”

Actually, no. I don’t even think it’s one of the best games ever made.

Ownage is a bitch, isn’t it?

List of “fanboy crap” ended.

“I’d like to state here that the story was crap and there were a lot of loading times (exaggerates to emphasize his post), RATING: A pile of shit.”

I thought so too. I did not get enough minutes.

The fact that this game got so much great reviews and high review scores from sites like IGN or Gamespot etc proves that it’s “NOT” a shit game and that ur just a little noob critic. Don’t complain about something that u don’t have a full understanding of. U think the story sucks, it doesn’t, MSG series have one of the best storylines/plot compare to other games. The reason y u don’t know jackshit is coz u probably haven’t played the previous series.

It’s like reading a novel series and u jump straight to the last, then of course u won’t understand wtf happened in between, u dumbfuck.

Why should it be necessary to play all the previous games to have an idea of what’s going on MGS 4? Why the fuck should the reviewer waste his time playing the previous games when he’s talking about the latest incarnation? It may be unbelievable to you, but some people haven’t played MGS, and shouldn’t need to play the previous games to “enjoy” Shitey Sandwich. The plot is shite and long winded. Really, it is.

And just because Gamespot (who fired Jeff Gerstmann for doing his job) and IGN (who are swayed by advertising publishers. ^_^) gave MGS 4 high scores doesn’t make it necessarly true. I D I O T H

Hideo can suck me off.

It’s a shame you can’t recognise my greatness, and I’m sure if you give Metal Gear Meryl a chance, you’ll be very surprised at how coherent the plot is.

Nina Williams:

The critics aren’t exactly criticising the the story, and MGS4 is a great game not only because of its epicness and excellent gameplay, but also because it doesn’t depend only on Online modes to be successful. Why do you think there are so many gamers that think Halo is good? Because of its campaign mode? Absolutely not.

Here’s a link (if you care) to most of MGS4 reviews. It wasn’t only IGN and Gamespot that rated this game a 10, and the lowest ratings are 80%.

http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/ps3/metalgearsolid4gunsofthepatriots?q=metal%20gear%20solid%204

“Hideo can suck me off.”
He couldn’t, because you apparently lack a penis.

Using nanomachine technology, and new age hokum, anything is possible.

Don’t you know who I AM!? Saywhat, you smell of lavender.

I like the MGS series.

Oh there are flaws, there are inconsistencies, there are times I think the story doesn’t fit right, but, I like the game, I enjoyed playing it, I was very satisfied after finished the MGS games. Can’t say the same about quite a lot of first person shooters, and for some of the first person shooters, I stopped playing all together half way.

Even after I finished them, I replayed the MGS games and tried new ways and alternate ways to achieve the goals, many, many times. Can’t say the same about quite a lot of other first person shooters, and some of them I just endured to see the ending, then stow them away.

I love Anime. I grew up watching them. And I still watch them. I like the anime style of Japanese made games, such as the MGS series. I enjoy story/plot driven games, just as much as I enjoy non-plot/open games. I enjoy listening to the characters interact with each other when I’m in the mood, and other times I like to shoot everything I see when I’m in the mood.

I’m an executive of an MNC and I earn a moderate salary. I live in a moderate house, with a lovely wife and 2 kids (which I hope won’t grow up writing long winded articles criticising a game that out sold many first person shooters and has a franchise that lasted since the 80s) and I make daily decisions which affects people’s life and jobs.

So, thank you very much for letting us know your opinion on MGS. I am sure someone, somewhere in the world will make good use of the information. However, I’m sorry, but I must say I have a different opinion from you, and I’m afraid I do not find your input on the MGS series useful nor does it affects my daily decisions.

Please sell your MGS4 on eBay or other similar places, but I’m affraid you won’t get back all your money and unfortunately, that is how the world works. You invested in the wrong game, and too bad. I hope you will continue to enjoy playing many of the games you like in the future without idiots telling you how lousy the games are, just as I hope I will be able to enjoy playing all the games I like in the future without idiots telling me how lousy the games are. But keep your day job, criticising games just isn’t you, and cleary no one is rushing to pay you to criticise games on IGN and other game sites.

Please do not insult your own intelligence by throwing back swear words at me, or calling me names. I’m sure you can do much better, and think of it as practicing how to criticise things properly.

Why are you criticising someone who dislikes the game? All his points are valid because the game is shit.

I totally agree with the OP, other than the graphics, the game really blew da kaka. As for the game trying to take itself way to serious
What was up with all the “fanservice” half naked voluptuous cg women bosses that served no damn purpose other than to make your pimple face gamer (or in the east your bowlcutfaced kid) bust a load on his six axis, clogging up the buttons. Perverted easterners probably take the EYETOY for ps3 and try to get upskirt shots to set as their XMB backgrounds.

@ TheAssquaker

You are correct, my apologies. I have forgotten that anyone has the freedom to criticise a game which he/she dislikes, and while he/she is at it he/she can criticise or insult gamers who likes the game. As such, by exercising my freedom of speech to defend a game which many people like, and criticise the critic who dislike the game as I have done, I have violated the critic’s freedom of speech. I should not have criticised the critic nor the gamers who dislike the MGS series, and just stick to defending the MGS series, and criticise the games which I dislike. Never the person/people. I will keep that in mind. Thank you for your enlightening input. If only everyone in the world is as understanding and clear-minded as you are.

@ relic

You are correct, some people do pay $60 (and buy the PS3) so that they can sweat over the game and get to a point were they can pause and stare at a fuzzy voluptuous female boss and blow their load, instead of getting a decent porn from an adult store, or just go on the net and google for porn flicks. But then again, there are those who sweat over the early levels of the game until they get their hands on the biggest, meanest gun, and then blow their loads just by watching the BFG 9000 blow enemies into bits on the screen. Or, go out all the way to get the longest, biggest sniper rifle and hide in a dark corner, then start sniping enemies and watch their brains fly out while the gamer tremble with orgasmic ecstasy. Also, there are those who blow their load by detonating a grenade in the middle of a group of approaching enemies, while screaming “OH YES! OH YES! OHHHH YEESSS!!!” Are you one of them? I’m sure you at least know a few fellows who are like that.

Well, I think you are right, because I do know some easterners (as you put it, and I sincerely thank you for not using an insulting word) who drool over voluptuous female characters in games or anime. But unless I’ve mistaken, I think the voluptuous females originated from western comics, where very, very well endowed heroines / villainess dressed in skimpy outfits or ridiculously tight outfits. Does anyone seriously believe people buy those comics for the story line? At least eastern games doesn’t have heroes/villains wearing their underwear outside/wearing their long john only and show off their bulging manhood while flying/swinging around.

Seriously, you should register that idea before someone else comes up with a perverted idea like that. Sony will probably pay you a lot of money so that you won’t license that idea to others?

Wow! finding this site is such a breath of fresh air after all the fkn hype surrounding this game. i cant BELIEVE it got a perfect 10 ANYWHERE… outside of japan at least. this game is a total shyte waste of time. I had to stop playing after raiden was breakdancing and swinging those huge walking tanks around by his legs. come on! they had him COMPLETELY immobilized not 30 seconds earlier and now we are shown that he has a strength that defies all laws of physics (he was completely immobilized by them! why didnt he just pick one up and throw it over the horizon?)

I loved all the MGS games up until now but this one is a stupid waste of my time. perfect 10’s my ass.

@Ryan Payton
That’s why I said that, genius!

@relic
You make a very good point, the real reason why so many people have bought MGS4 was because of the “half naked cg women”. But then, I’m sure you prefer the musculated guys from Gears of War. Fucktard.

@Slacker
You clearly haven’t noticed all the games in the series are inspired by anime. REX in MGS1 defies the laws of physics, it’s not possible to make a giant robot and make it stand on two legs.

Those were pretty solid and smart arguments uhm, sorry, I meant retarded…

The above comment is mine, I forgot to put the username, silly me.

Big Boss coming back from the dead, despite being utterly incinerated in Metal Gear 2 is by far, the most retarded plot twist to ever appear on any medium. And I should know…

Nerds, folks who are socially awkward, love anime. Because Japs are so repressively stoic strong emotion is expressed like the crude jerks of someone who doesn’t know how to dance. I like some anime and manga but recognize as a lie the common claim these characters/stories are deeper or more fleshed out than typical western fare. These characters are caricatures of common human expressions that’re loved b/c partakers are in states of euphoria or shy/geeky themselves.

Oh yeah, Metal Gear. The first one seemed cool when an enemy noticed my foot-steps but pissed me off because I had to sneak up on guys w/guns. Every section of the story revealed to me is bad. Even when fans lay it out, doing it justice, it sounds stupid. Folks who prefer JRPGs, the metal gear sereis, etc. are lesser gamers. They prefer reading or watching a movie to playing. A man must also be cowardly to prefer being forced to do something (linearity) as opposed to given options (Far Cry 2, Fallout 3, Planescape: Torment, Deus Ex).

I totally agree with Slacker. But I understand the hype around the game because the game itself supports the gay community. This is evidenced by the main character having a gay mustache. MGS is actually an acronym for Mustache Gay Sergeant.

The reason why I keep posting here is because I love to see how ignorant (or funny, idk for sure) people can be, anyone who has a brain understand why I’m saying this.

Anyway, the last 2 posts in particular are very humouristic comments, the name of this site says it all.

Still, I haven’t seen a good reason why hardcore gamers should dislike MGS4…

MGS4 is teh best game ever made. And nobody can give any good reason why it isnt. No matter how hard they try, it just isnt possible.

Humouristic isn’t a word. Now who is the retard? Maybe you’re right though and MGS 4 is gooderer then most games.

@KMD

“Humoristic” IS a word (I just made a mistake in a letter), look it up.

Nah, don’t even bother, because I already pwned you. Also, my main language is not English ;)

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/Humoristic

Lol! It’s not in the Queen’s English! There is a “u” in humour as there is a “u” in colour.

The Cambridge dictonaries online didn’t recognise it as a word either. Guess it’s an Americanism I’ve never heard of.

Humourous would’ve been fine in that sentence but then again, I’m not your English teacher. O_o’
