Editorial Review: Product Description: Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots PS3 Amazon.com Product Description: Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, is a next-gen experience complete with top-of-the-line graphics and surround sound designed for the Sony PlayStation 3. Featuring the most revealing display of Kojima Production's premier title, MSG4 details the world where Snake must under go his final mission. In a world overrun by private military companies (PMCs), wars are no longer fought over nations or ideologies. Instead, the wars of the future are micro-managed by overarching PMCs, right down to the bullet. New gadgets and abilities fuel Snake's journey deep into the enemy domains of the Middle East, South America, and beyond. New gear includes "Metal Gear Mk. II," the ultimate reconnaissance tool, and "Solid Eye," which gives Snake real-time information on enemies and his surroundings.
MGS4 is a next-generation adventure set in the aftermath of MGS2: Sons of Liberty. The concept behind the latest Metal Gear Solid project is "no place to hide," and this edition in the series will force Snake into unexpected circumstances with an all-new storyline that breaks away in some ways from the previous MGS franchise entries. We don't want to spoil it for you, but, producer Hideo Kojima did reveal some very juicy tidbits about the game and the storyline when it was first announced at E3 of 2006. "Until now," said Kojima, "we've released two entries of the MSX2 Metal Gear series, and three entries in the Metal Gear Solid series. Add to this Portable Ops, and you get a total of six titles. All mysteries will be cleared up in Metal Gear Solid 4." Kojima was very clear about the finality of MSG4, leaving gamers to wonder, "Will Snake die?!" When asked if the story will come to this sort of an end, Kojima responded without the slightest bit of vagueness, "It will come to an end." The MGS4 E3 trailer showed a number of characters from the Metal Gear and Metal Gear Solid histories. This final installment is sure to deliver loads of cameos, in fact, it is rumored that nearly all the characters from the series will make an appearance. In addition to a return of classic Metal Gear Solid characters, the gameplay systems from part three are also expected to make a comeback. The camouflage system from part three will make it into MGS4, with the addition of "OctoCamo," Snake's most advanced stealth suit to date. The name appears to be formed from the words "Octopus" and "camoflauge," and players will be awestruck by the chameleon-like camo that changes with the surroundings. OctoCamo allows Snake to blend in with his environment as it digitally manifests nearby textures in real time. Think if it this way, if Snake is standing next to a wall worn out with holes, he too will appear to be riddled with holes. It has also been revealed that MGS4 will have online play, but no specifics have been released. Although very little information is known about the game's visuals, rumor has it that MGS4 is expected to be the finest representation of console graphics on the PS3, and it is expected that they will just get better and better as the game nears its release date. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - a title that exceeds all of the hypeIs it possible to give a game an 11? If so, this would be the game that would merit that score. Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is a title that exceeds all of the hype that was attached to the title. Regardless of whether you've seen every trailer and screenshot, read every preview and heard every interview, you won't get a full sense of how phenomenal this title is unless you sit down and experience it for yourself. Rating: - The best game everThis is the best game I've ever played it's a must have game for PS3 owners Rating: - Best game I've played in a long timeGame Play: The game play is a lot of fun. The game dynamics change and you are faced with different challenges that require different approaches. You will not get bored with repetitive game play, but rather encouraged to change your play style depending on the situation. There are areas in the game where blasting your way through the enemy is encouraged or required. In other areas the number of enemies is overwhelming and using stealth would be advantages. Other parts of the game give you the ...

So far I've progressed to the point in the game where I've defeated the Laughing Octopus and have left the lab in search of Naomi (no success in finding her anywhere along the mountain trail maze yet. I'm stuck! HELP!) This is the best videogame I have ever played, hands down! The graphics are on par with the movie Final Fantasy. And the the musical ...

If you have never played a Metal Gear game before, then this game is definitely not for you. Most of the story is impossible to follow without completing ALL THREE of the other games in the series. If you have though, this is quite possibly the most entertaining experience I have ever received from a console. I would venture to say that it is the best game ever made, and the best series-closer from any form of media (kicks Return of the ... Read More |
