Fun:
This game is near flawless, Rediculous graphics, Incredibly smooth gameplay, and interesing story and characters, You can play this game however you like, from part running and gunning to all out stealth, When i first saw my friend playing this i thought he was in a cutscene, it just looks so good, the boss fights are varied and suitably epic, gameplay is phenominal and maps are very varied, you just want to replay this time and again, an essential ps3 experience, literally cannot recommend this enough.

Fun:
This game came out in 2008, ive completed it recently once again after not playing it for over 2 years.
It still astounds me. It's simply amazing, its ahead of its class now and its 4 years old. When i compare it to the most recent COD, then it makes it seem like im comparing Man City to Yeovil Town (No offence at all to Yeovil).
The game is beautiful from the get go, it has no bugs, its difficult and challenging, extreme stealth is required to get past the toughest difficulty level without been seen and after all your trials getting through a section, you can sit back and watch a fairly long cutscene, which if you immerse yourself in the metal gear world and play stealthy you will enjoy.
I seriously can't understand any review under 4 stars for this game. And the 4 stars are only acceptable to me because i can understand that people will be put off by the length of the cutscenes, but you can skip them anyway.
I can remember when i got this in 2008 and i found it really tough, didnt really get the hang of it until the fourth act but it really does astound me still replaying Act 4. Its by far and a way one of the greatest gaming experiences ever and in my opinion the best boss battle of the game comes in Act 4. Its a work of art.
On the cutscenes, if they were joined together with movies of the gameplay you control yourself, it would be an incredible movie. This part i like about the game, the storytelling is out of this world, and ive not seen anything else like it, and we're 3 and a half years on. Metal Gear lives on.
Id advise checking vids or wikis before getting it. Its not a shoot em up. It can be but you wont enjoy it as much if you shoot everybody and at the end of the game shooting really does make it harder for you
Cant wait for the upcoming HD revamps and then Rising. Kudos to you Kojima, top dog with this game, it really is sensational. If you havent got this game, and you like a challenge, get it.

Fun:
Metal Gear Solid 4 is a perfect example of incredible gameplay and exemplary storytelling.
Graphically, even in 2012 this title looks gorgeous, pushing the PS3 console to new heights (and sometimes beyond what it can handle). Every character looks believable, every explosion looks fitting and the way cut scenes blend into gameplay seamlessly all add to the immersion.
Gameplay wise it is very similar to past games in the franchise. You can sneak your way to the objectives or go in all guns blazing. There are four (or five?) difficulty modes so even a complete novice can ace the game if they are playing for the story and not for the challenge. I was never once bored by the obstacles presented. The pacing of content is superb.
What seems to be the biggest nag of this title in particular is the length of cutscenes. However, other than the epilogue at the very end (which is very long) I didn't feel as if any of these sequences intruded on the experience overall. If you are diving into this, with no prior knowledge of the MGS series and expecting constant firefights then yes, you will be disappointed. But for those of us who have followed Solid Snake from his PS1 days then you'll enjoy seeing how this final instalment plays out. People also seem to forget that cutscenes can be skipped by pressing start and selecting the appropriate option.
If you have just gotten a PS3 console for Christmas and are wanting to experience one of the best games this generation has to offer, do not hesitate to pick this up. So long as you are aware of how story-centric it is and have at least skimmed through the plots of previous of MGS games, you will not be disappointed.

Same old MGS
