Is MGS : 4 gameplay good?

Hi frnds.. i bought mgs:4 for my ps3.. just now i inserted the cassette in the console.. while the game is started, i was shocked bcos the game looks like war game.. (i liked mgs 2 and 3 very much in which the gameplay is in the SHIP and forest like respectively..) so my question is..... shall i continue playing it? will it be a good game? or shall i return it? (will the gameplay fully like the starting stage or will it change? )

I've never played MGS4 and probably never will, but the only why to find out if its a good game and if you'll enjoy it is to continue playing and find out for yourself...so keep playing. :)

Single player is very well done but it can't be said the same for Metal gear online.

MGS4 is actually the first MGS game I had ever played. It was brilliant. I have heard its got more action in it than previous entries.

the gameplay has been refined and expanded at the same time. the stealth elements remain intact but you have more options now; CQC control is now more intuitive; most importantly, gunplay has been improved significantly and is now more rewarding and engaging then ever before. beyond that, the setting and story retains all elements that make MGS the unique franchise it is, so i wouldn't worry about anything if i were you. bottom line, MGS4 is more than a good game - it's imo one of the best games ever created and is also PS3's definitive exclusive title :)

wait..... you inserted what into the console? :shock:

MGS4 is the only game in the series where the gameplay is as good as the story in my opinion. It looks like a war game because it is one. You can play the entire game (with the exception of the Act 3) as a shooter or you can sneak through the whole thing. Or anywhere in between.

This is the most overrated game of all time,i played till half way through act 2 then got fed up with it.It was a struggle to play it to level 2

its my personal fav game this gen

so yes

The gameplay changes from act to act, from run and gunning to sneaking to whatever you want to do

and you'll play in different environments as you progress through the story

The single player adds variety the farther you get through it. One minute you're sneaking through a warzone, next you're in a gunfight with elite soldiers, then you're following someone through the streets of France, next you're in an epic motorcycle chase, I don't wanna spoil anything else but it's a ton of fun and the acts are never identicle, each have their own unique gameplay and level design. Chances are you won't be dissapointed

I stopped reading when the OP said 'cassette'... lmaoooo

if you're a fan of the series than you'll love this one. In my opinion it has the best game mechanics ten-fold. I bought the ps3 specifically to play that game. it got a 10 on gamespot. if that doesnt boost your confidence idk what will.

The gameplay's excellent; it's one of the best things about MGS4.

Short answer yes!

I hated it. Extremely outdated and slow. The ONLY good thing about that entire game is the camo suit.

its fantastic.

i thought the gameplay was great for what it was trying to accomplish. also it allows you to play using stealth or just going through as a fps.

The third-person mechanics are really awkward, play a good TPS like GRAW and you'll know what I mean.

I actually just started it today and I think it's pretty fun. Graphically it stands up even after how many years? What I like about it most is the way you can choose to play. I started out trying to be sneaky but I'm absolutely terrible at that so I went out guns a'blazin and works just as well! :D I personally couldn't get into MGS 3 & 4 too so this was quite a surprise. Here's to hoping it's a good experience for the whole game hahaha

A whole two years.

Anyway, to the OP: the gameplay is nice and I found it fun enough. The problem is that there's far, far too little of it. Basically the game moves like this: 5 minutes of gameplay, 20 minute cutscene, rinse and repeat. It's pretty much like that for the entire game. This (coupled with some of the ridiculousness of the story) ultimately proved to be a game breaker for me.

Its tedious at times (if you choose to go the stealth route) and a total run-and-gun at other times, so a little of everything. I enjoyed it.

Cassette? Ha....I remember walking around my elementary school playground with my band-new Walkman thinking I was the bomb. Good times.

And then there was VHS...and tracking. Ugh...tracking still haunts my dreams..

It's a little bothersome you need the opinions of others to tell you if you like a game or not when you've already BOUGHT IT AND PUT IN YOUR CONSOLE. Play it and decide for yourself.
