I think no game deserves 10....but I was all for it just to make sure IGN n GSPOT realize it kicks GTA 4 in the ass....

Yeah I am actually re-trying areas in stealth n then in action.....the difference is huge n is noticeable, I feel you do get much more satisfaction through stealth...

 Well, IGN defined 10 as "Masterful"... as oppose to "PERFECTION"... so in that respect, I do agree with 10.

 

but if anybody want to argue that this game is "perfect", I would absolutely disagree, nothing in this world is Perfect, unless your name is Plato. 



Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.

@kingofwale

thats a good point....and the master Kojima did some masterful work with this game..

I mean if you listen to IGN's PS team podcast...you will know through their enthusiasm & amazement that apart from a 10 they couldn't have given it anything else.

i think it can, some ps3/360 owners bought 360 version of gta4, but mgs4 is exclusive

It's possible with the bundle.

also you must see the GAME MGS4 can appeal to new people due to environments, a decent camera and better controls

my friends LOVED the game......3 of them have never payed MGS series but they are buying MGS4 because it was so much fun.

I don't know. I mean MGS is more movie then game. Most people play it for the story... and this is a conclusion that ties up all the loose ends. Will someone who hasn't played the first 3 even understand whats going on?

Well i guess buying and enjoying can be two different things, and there is always the online game.

with bundle it could eventually exceed 360 gta4 sales.

i bet fanboy reviewrs like eurotoilet(eurogamer) winced in pain to see mgs4 running the way it does. if it had been 360 exclusive they would have given it a 10/10



...not much time to post anymore, used to be awesome on here really good fond memories from VGchartz...

PSN: Skeeuk - XBL: SkeeUK - PC: Skeeuk

really miss the VGCHARTZ of 2008 - 2013...

It could and should but it is going up against a 25gb Blu Ray disc with "Grand Theft Auto IV" attached to it. GTA IV will have a wider appeal but i think it will be close as GTA is crap compared to MGS4



Snake612 on 14 June 2008

it be really awesome if metal gear solid 4 sells as much as halo 3 sold in america's first week sales.

No GTA games always have good legs.

 Look at San Andreas's sales and then try and say that again

OT: yes, but made certain by the bundle, otherwise I tihnk it could be close. MGS 4 will sell over 5m copies

@munkeh111

"Million" means

No, (to my statement)..GTA games always have good legs
