Now to start off, YES i do NOT own MGS4 yet so dun bash me for not owning this game yet im poor lets leave it @ that.
All right ahhh, first off i didnt care much for the MGS4 demo itself but thats because i guess im not sure where the story is @ right now, BUT thankfully the newst MGO Demo they just added to the PSN...Wow.... Mind blowing, its the first 3rd person / 1st person mixed style game with lots of "thinking" and strategy.
Basicly speaking it was awesome and i love randomly knocking people out while rolling in a barrol or cardboard box then friskying them and take there "gear" so much awesome-pop in there.
The graphics look INSANE on an HDTV (My dads lol) i thought it was just an "Okay-Ish" game graphicly but wow never would have thought Kojima's gang were good in this area of gaming well done.
Online play for MGO is easy without a doubt the smoothest online gaming experience i've ever had be it on PC, PS3, PSP, 360, and so forth. it was incredible, there was the very rare drop in frame-rate every now & then but it only happened when noobs went all fucking insane with Nades or rockect launchers. abd even then it was still very minimal.
Custom Characters were sweet to, although im sure in the full game its much better, but from what they offer you in MGO Demo it looks like it has its own community already! something games like UT3, Haze, Lost Planet & Toruk seem to lack greatly as FULL GAMES, insane!
Overall just wanted to get my opinion out there because i didnt think the Metal Gear Series would be my kinda thing, guess i was wrong it was unique and fun to boot.
- ~Graphics~ 9/10 - Very awesome on an HDTV one of the best i've seen and i apoligies for under-estimateing it.
- ~Story~ ??/10 - I Cannt commet on this from a personal perspective at the moment.
- ~Controls~ 8/10 - Very weird to me but once master i can only assume it will be a breeze to use, well put together and smooth scrooling and switching.
- ~Battle System~ 10/10 - I was uniquely surprised here, its not just some shoot'um up game like UT3 or the like, you have to think on your moves really awesome and un-expected.
- ~Sound~ 10/10 - AWESOME sound effects great voice acting (I heared Crispen Freeman in there LMAO!!!) and good music to keep ya on your toes aswell as the hype.
- ~Lasting Appeal~ 9.5/10 - For a demo? i can see myself playing this more then UT3 and Lost Planet combined sad...Is it just me or does my choice in online multi-player games really, really bad?
- ~Overall~ 9/10 - This Demo for Metal Gear Online Sealed the deal for me, i was planning on getiting MGS4 soonner or later, but now its leanning towards the soonner. again well done Kojima very impressed and im mainly a JRPG and Fighting game kinda guy incredible.
