The Bottom Line:

"Overrated"

MGS has never been my cup of tea

MGS 1 - 5/10 - good graphics for PS1, awful control

MGS 2 - 3/10 - Good graphics, what the **** is going on? Awful control.

MGS 3 - 7/10 - Good graphics, good gameplay, what the **** is going on? Mediocre control

And now we come to MGS4, which is the same.

MGS 4 - 4/10 Great graphics, abysmal story, what the **** is going on? Poor control and gameplay.

Why do people like these games? They are atrociously written, mediocre gameplay, and blisteringly bad control. (You shouldn't need to hold down 3 buttons to shoot a damn gun, Kojima)

Graphics - Great, but getting more and more outdated. 8/10

Story - I couldn't even understand a sentence due to the poisonously bad writing and probably the most confusing plot of all time. ZERO/10

Gameplay - Holding down 3 buttons at the same time hurts my fingers. 3/10

Length - Sure it's lengthy, but why would you want to keep playing? 5/10

Overall Enjoyment - 4/10 = poor.
