I dont mind buying the game but the reason why i havent bought it yet is because i never played any of the last MGS games and so i might not understand the foth one.

Same goes for me. I played a bit of MGS2 a few years ago, but now I'm waiting to get all 4 games when I have enough free time to play them all.

You really should do the same. from what I know the MGS series has a very indepth story, which can only truly be appreciated if you play all the games from start to finish. But as with all games, it's not to everybody's taste.

Agreed. The culmination of an epic series, pretty much everything a hardcore fan could want. So amazing.

I was like that with GTA4. I bought it with a system last May and never even tried it until like March. A few friends came over and thought it was sweet that I had it (we were/are all rather broke college students), but they were even more shocked that I had never even played it.

DON'T play MGS 1,2,3. Just read the summary of their stories. And watch the whole story of maybe one or two of the previous games on youtube.

Ignore that. Simplyreading a summary can not convey the emotions and experiences the way that actually playing the game for yourself can.

I thought MGS4 was a bad game. I only played it for about 1 hour but I am not a stealth fighter. I come in the safe house with my guns melting from the heat. Anyway, you might like it, I just don't.

A lot of gamers got sucked into the hype it got when it was first released and when they tried it they called it overrated. So I recommend doing your research on the series before going out and buying it. The MGS series is not for everyone.

I owned MGS4 because it came with my console. I wasn't very impressed. The only part I enjoyed was playing online - and even that didn't last very long because they apparently forced players to buy new content if they wanted to continue playing online.

What? You've got to be kidding me. 2 was the best in the series, and 1 was the second best. 4 was the worst in the series, yet still a really good game. It just killed all the sneaking. If anything, play 1 & 2 & 3, then read the summary for 4!

I'll give the same response I always give when people suggest a game I have little interest in:

I'll buy it when it's 10 bucks.

I honestly have no interest in the game, and am not a fan of 3rd person action/stealth games. Just not my thing. I respect the fact that it's a critically acclaimed game/series and realize tons of people love it, but it's just not for me.

Some may hate me for it, but I found MGS4 boring to play. Maybe I didn't give it enough time, but I enjoyed the first MGS, liked MGS2 well enough, had no patience for all the babysitting you had to do for Naked Snake in MGS3, and I just didn't have interest in the series anymore. I actually regretted buying MGS4 and returned it in about a week after buying it.

I'm sure it's great for those who like the series, but it didn't interest me.

I am currently playing through MGS4 for the first time and am on act 3, (following some chap who is whistling).I am really enjoying the game so far, its made me laugh out loud and the environments are awesome. Just out of interest, how many acts are there?I am hoping this is a really long game. I got the impression it was after the length of act 1. I havent tried playing online yet.

I have only just got my Playstation 3 so this, Littlebigplanet, Flower and GT5are the only games I have. I have a feeling Metal Gear and Littlebigplanet will keep me occupied for a very long time!

Good point, especially since the plot's all tie together. That would probably be the only reason I could see someone not picking it up...until they play the first ones that is...

The video didn't make me want to buy/play MS4, the demo was boring enough in my opinion. Now if that made a Metal Gear Solid moive (Directed by Kojima himseft), i might watch that; the gameplay just isn't to my liking, though i do enjoy a game with a awesome story (i play mostly rpgs)

originally i was never a fan of the series. the first game i played was number 2. But after seeing how clever the game designers were in 2 and one i decided to go back and play the first one. All i can say is the psyco mantis fight was the most clever boss battle i think i've ever played in a game. I wasn't really a big fan of stealth like that but you have to play all the games to appreciate the fourth. If your not into stealth i understand, but even the graphics are dated the first one will remain one of the most innovative games to date. I still don't consider my self a hard core fan but i recognize a gem when i see it.

If you can sit through a 2hr movie and not do anything than you can play MGS4. Just sit back and enjoy.

Dude, that is a horrible screen shot. Where did you get that?? The game doesn't look like that! Play it on an HDTV! Anyway, this game may not be for everyone but it was GOTY last year for a darn good reason. A lot more people than not will tell you this is the best game on the PS3..... despite this ugly screen shot.

I don't have it yet because I've never been a huge fan of the series. The previous entries in the series are games that I liked but didn't love, so for me MGS is a series whose games I get once the price gets down to budget range. I will get MGS4 eventually though, will probably wait to see if another version comes out first.
