Let me start by saying that I recently played the Mass Effect Trilogy on an Xbox 360 and was blown away. I left that game feeling like no other saga could compare and was constantly being let down by shallow games that failed to quench my first for a great story.
1 week ago, I sold my Xbox and bought a PS3 (people say I turned to the dark side but I now I feel silly for not buying a PS3 sooner) along with ALL of the Metal Gear Solid Games. Yes, I downloaded MG 1 and 2 and MSG1, along with the HD collection. As most can imagine I was blown away. I thought for sure the MGS seriers was AS GOOD as Mass Effect and I was thoroughly satisfied.
Then I bought MGS4. In my opinion, MGS4 is the perfect game. I cannot even begin to do it justice by trying to explain how every element and layer of that game was unbeleivably spectacular. And the ending was magnificent (especially sinse coming down from my Mass Effect high after its bleak and frayed ending).
There is no point to this post other than the fact that I NEEDED to get this off my chest and felt like I needed people to hear this. Metal Gear Solid beats any book, any movie, any game (in my opinion) that I have come across.
I am a 27 year old High School teacher in San Francisco and I was able to relive some of my youth by revisiting this saga. And that makes me happy.
The End.
