I hope I'm not to late in stopping you from making the biggest mistake of your life!
In short, you really need to get Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots
This a wise desicion for the following reasons
> Although you won't understand the storymode of MGS4 because of not having played the previous games, I have had friends in your exact same position buy the game and they said it was astounding, they didn't even care that they didn't know what was going on. Plus, you can always download the MGS database from the Playstation store, it will fill you in on any information you need to know about the series, and it's free.
> Also, when it comes to online play COD doesn't even come close, MGS4 is revolutionary in its online experience, it's so much more organized that COD's, plus theres the "reward shop" in which all sorts of character customizations are accecible, and the additions of "Survival" and "Tournaments" make the game so much more fun and you make much more friends playing with them in these games
>In addition to the online play, the things you can do are simply amazing! You can use CQC, shoot people out of trash cans, trap enemies in playboys, disguise yourself as a box, use binoculars to hound out ruthless snipers, slit throats, grab people and use them as a human shield, plus SOP link is an evolutionary game tactic that allows you to share information with your teammates, teamwork is used much more effectively in MGO.
>Also, the player ranking system is much better, instead of all these rankings (1-60 (or whatever)) and then different prestiges, in MGO its a simple level ranking system 1-18, there are higher levels than 18, but they are all boosters or glitchers. and, in MGO you can actually lose your level, unlike COD where no matter how bad you do, you will always keep your current level. In MGO you actually have something to play for.
> And finally, MGO is the best online game for clans. 1) You can create a clan with longer than just a 4-letter abreviation, (for example, I am currently a member of the clan "Cursed Soldiers") and you can play together in Survival and tournaments, no nead for clan battle websites.
>I speak as an abid player in both MGS and COD, MGS4 is the better choice hands down. MGo does offer a type of perk system, although on a much smaller scale, you can arrange different skills arranging from Assault Rifle (increasing reload time, and less recoil when shooting) to Monomania (which wil allow you to steal the SOP information of an enemy if you hit them).
>There, I hope I have made my argument compelling enough
