Metal Gear Solid 4 reviewed

[EnderJE]

I'm pretty underwhelmed with Bioshock so far. I don't want to have to fight those big guardians because they are 10x tougher than anyone else. Plus the plasmids don't last worth a shit so you constantly have to keep injecting/shooting/injecting/shooting. Blegh. Hacking is tedious too. I'm starting the third level and hope it gets more interesting/immersive like they say it is.

I know what you mean. As I was playing Bioshock, I kept asking myself "Where is this great game that people rave over?" Sure, the tapes are interesting and tell a neat backstory, but that's only provided that you FIND THEM ALL.

If I were you, I'd just drop it and just see the cutscenes via Youtube. They may not make alot of sense, but they won't make sense in the game either.

To me, Bioshock has been one of the biggest letdowns in the recent future.

yeah I love the whole storyline behind the game, I think that's what makes is sweet. I'm just going to buy MGS3 and play it on my ps3 first (ps3 plays old ps2 games right?)

60 gig no problem. 80 gig is emulation. 40 gig I don't think does at this point but emulation is supposedly in the works there too.

Yep. I was "sick" on Friday. I have been waiting two years for this game.

Far Cry was a great game. Crappy Story.

I have no idea why people liek Bioshock so much. I played it and like the undertones (morality, etc), but the actual game and story wasn't to my liking. That said, I did like the one quote about a man and a slave.

Skip those two and play MGS 4, "if you kindly".

"Would you kindly" haha. As you can see from my new sig gif I liked BioShock quite a bit after completing it, and especially that twist in the story. It is different though, and my main complaint is that they tried to fit in too many gameplay elements, and it took away from the flow of roughly 75% of the game. They should've focused more on the shooting mechanics and cut down on the hacking/collecting/upgrading. It felt like an rpg shooter, which would've worked better if the game was as long as an rpg. I played on PC but I'd like to see what they do with the PS3 version this fall too.

At last I can dig in to MGS 4.

Ah well, it has been awhile since I played that game.

I can't believe how good the character models look in MGS 4. They're arguably better than Crysis.
Still playing the first act, just got done fighting the Frogs.

Sometimes, I had a few freezing problems with ps2 games so I just gave them all away.

There's no nude scene according to the rating. If there is though I hope it's Naomi.
