Err...Id take MGS3 and Mario 64 over those 2 any day.

really why is that? Do you mean mgs3 snake eater?

 

 

 MGS4 was too busy tying up the story to bother with revolitionary gaming ideas. Also it took itself waaay to seriously. MGS3 on the other hand had some of the collest stuff ever seen in a video game...such as the hallucination scene where you go through everyone you killed in the game or the amazing torture scene or the scene where you wear a mask as General Volkovs male lover and he grabs your ...penis...and says "you are not "whatever his name was" guy". Plus the whole game works as a parody of Bond movies...

MGS4 had a coherent story and recycled gameplay. Boss fights in perticular...what a difference from the boss fights in MGS3, like night and day.

As for Mario...mario 64 got the 3d gameplay down in the first shot. Amazing game. Mario Gallaxy is great 10 hours of fun but never in the whole game did I have my jaw drop as when I played mario 64 for the first time.

My jaw drops with all games...lol...It doesn't drop however in games that have way to many cutscenes i.e. Metal Gear Solid 4.

 

Was that really necessary ?

Well, the Wii fans are going to say Galaxy and PS3's MGS 4. I think that's a pretty predictable poll.



MGS 4 is superior to me though.

 

I own both and MGS 4 is way better.  I think Mario Galaxy is overrated.  It's a good game, but not the greatest game ever.

It was kinda, because what I said is true and that is one of the reasons why I chose Super Mario Galaxy over Metal Gear Solid 4. Reason being Super Mario Galaxy gets everything straight to the point! Sorry if you found my post offensive because I wasn't trying to offend anyone, dude!

 



Galaxy

I don't like shitty movies with decent gameplay in between.

Wii owners think Galaxy is the best game ever. PS3 owners think MSG4 is best game ever. Xbox360 owners think both sux.

 Do you own a Wii? If not you'll never get to play, let alone compare either game.

Not so.

I think Metal Gear Solid 4 is is the apotheosis of stealth action gameplay sandwiched between story elements that really got in the way of said stealth action gameplay.

I think Mario Galaxy is the apotheosis of pplatformer gameplay which is better than MGS4 because it is a perfect synthesis of the elements I enjoy without separating me from the experience of playing it in any way. It's all game.

I choose Galaxy.

Indeed I do.

To explain further, I read Watchmen in 8 hours. Someone told me that the cut-scenes in MGS4 alone were 10 hours. given that comparison I can't help but feel like I wasted 8 hours of my life more than I shuold have on MGS4.

I found Wario Land : Shake It way better than Galaxy.
