    Love this game; by far the best game this generation so far. Its graphics are still amazing today, even with other games with great graphics such as Killzone 2 and Resident Evil 5.

    No one has the right to compare the 360 and the PS3 unless they own both consoles and have experienced all of what those consoles have to offer. I personally do not think this game has the greatest graphics ever, I think that honor should go to Crysis.

  • Decrate

    Posted Jun 21, 2009 9:59 pm PT

    great game 9.3/10 i wish people who only owned either a 360 or ps3 would shut up cuz they are the most annoying people ever. own both consoles and then you can talk.

    best game ever made. Period. Why would it not be?? Best graphics, nothing comes even close. Best story in a video game ever (hell, better than a lot of movies!!) and the gameplay is flawless because you can try to be stealthy, or you can straight up gun fire your way though.

  • yhenry431

    This is a PERFECT game, "100 out of 10". The story of this game is so amazing and very emotional. It's the best story ever, like a movie.
    I don't know why xbox360 fans say so many stupid things like "ps3 sucks cus it has no games"that's just stupid.Ps3 has better excusives than the 360...(MTGS4, little big planet,resistance 2, killzone2, infamous...etc). 360 fans say that because they only look up the cool games for 360 and not for ps3. THE PS3 it's just a great advance with the technology.ps3 is the future, have you seen how many exellent things they are coming up this year and 2010. Watch the E3 conferences, it is just amazing how the ps3 is moving up. SO 360 FANS DON'T TALK IF YOU DON'T KNOW.
    METAL GEAR SOLID 4 is the best game ever made. better than any 360 game. ONLY POSSIBLE FOR PS3.

    i love this game. Im on my fith run through, but the olny tiny thing that bothers me a bit is that some of the cut scenes are a bit long but i dont really mind, and i still love to enjoy those cutscenes

  • DreamyMeadow

    absolutely mind blowing game.. the story's amazing.. visuals and audio are outrageous.. controls are so simple and intuitive and yet not dull.. and the feel you get from playing this game (and also whole MGS series) is ethereal..
    I also love the diversity this game offers.. you can complete one act simply by shooting and killing anyone and then the next one, you can just sneak around (and occasionally you may be forced to send someone to sleep - not deep slumber ) or you can just mix it up.. or do something totally different.. and you'll rarely find some obnoxious or binding boundaries.. they're practically non-existing..
    one thing troubles me here, though.. how come it didn't get the terrific voice acting emblem.. GTA IV has it and MGS doesn't.. somehow amazes me because I don't think voice acting does get anything better than this.. Jennifer Hale, Debi Mae West, Christopher Randolph, Paul Eiding, Phil LaMarr, Quinton Flynn.. and of course, the absolutely brilliant and fitting voice of David Hayter.. amazing voice acting plays a big part in this game..

    why don't kojima create an MGS game that includes the whole story of snake but with great graphics for early stories,and i like the way that snake looks and think changes by time,but hope this franchise change into a movie or an ultimate metal gear game that should beat every game on earth but that should take like a year,but how kojima is going to put MGS1,2,3 with better graphics and MGS4 with them,this is just my dream,but if you want to own the whole franchise you need like 90$,but it is worth it,(THIS GAME HAVE SEXUAL THEMES,PARTIAL NUDITY,BAD WORDS)children be aware this game is for adults from the gameplay to the cutscenes and story,but if you don't mind those things than buy this game.

    old snake1, mgs pw is about how outer heaven(well the founders of outer heaven) rises to save a natation, solid snake will only be a infant around that time.

    hamzah1235, I have to agree with you. I used to be a 360 fanboy, but now I'm selling my Xbox for a PS3. The main reason is because the PS3 has better exclusives. Besides Mass Effect, all of the 360's exclusives are worthless pieces of junk that the developers obviously put no effort into.

  • hamzah1235

    Posted Jun 9, 2009 12:50 am PT

    i hate that 360 fanboys are all criticizing this game for the most retarded reasons, just because its a PS3 exclusive. Let me give you an example of what they say, "Halo 3 is sooo much betr cuz its on xlive, PSN sucks". Honestly, i think those 360 fanboys are retarded. Anyways, i also hate it when they say PS3 has no good games. are you kidding me?! thats like what 360 fanboys used to complain in 2006. PS3 has more good games than Xbox 360.

    PS3 coming out with and has MAG, Uncharted 2,Infamous, Ratchet and Clank a crack in time, Gran Turismo 5, Modnation Racers, Infamous, Resistance 2, Killzone 2, Little big planet,,God of war 3, Heavy Rain, Final Fantasy 14, Demons soul, The last Guardian, Uncharted drakes fortune, Motorstorm Artics edge, and more, all exclusive for the PS3.

    you Xbox 360 have and are getting gears of war, Gears of war 2, Halo 3(which is not legendary, and i hate that game), Halo odst, Alan Wake, Left 4 dead, Left 4 dead 2, Fable 2, Splinter cell conviction(though i have to admit i would love to play that game), crackdown 2, and Forza Motorsport 3

    As you can see, PS3 has more and better exclusives than 360, olny possible on the PS3

    they're aslso making metal gear peace walker for the psp.

  • OLDSNAKE1

    Posted Jun 7, 2009 7:40 pm PT

    ChrisM95, Their making two new metal gears, making metal gear soild 5 where you'll play, Big Boss the original snake from snake eater and its going to be during the 70's I think its going to be at Zanzibar where you face Big Boss's clone solid snake when he's a rookie . Metal gear solid rising is after part 4 where you'll play as raiden.

    Didn't Kojima announce a MGS5? And that it would include Solid Snake? Looks like I have to do some researching......

    cant believe that they r making the MGS series into the 360!!!

    Actually, they aren't. The only continuation to the MGS series will be the sequels to MGS3, which started with Portable Ops and will continue with Peace Walker. Metal Gear Rising is not part of the MGS series, but simply part of the Metal Gear canon.

    The story of Solid Snake is finished, but I hope Metal Gear Rising will open the door for more multiplatform releases from Kojima (though it is doubtful as he has openly admitted he was a Sony fan).
