Look... Some of you may have been very involved with the story hence why you see the game in this godly light...and thats fine. But if you skip the cutscenes, all you are left with is a mediocre action game with stealth elements and a few cool bosses.
My biggest dissapointement is the lack of humour in MGS4. Previous metal gear games always had this subconcious theme of humour and never took themselves too seriously... for example, when Raiden meets snake in MGS2 and says "are you going to be ok?" and snake replies "I'll be fine' and points to his infinite ammo bandana from MGS1.
Or when you are climbing the long ass ladder in mgs3 and a James Bond theme starts playing... Or when Snake is wearing the mask of that Russian generals gay lover...and the general grabs his private parts and says "Wait a minute...who are you?".
MGS4 story did not have these moments at all and did not work for me. The 3rd time Otacon starts crying over Naomi when she dies... cause he cares about her or something for having a 1 night stand with him I was lauging my ass off...what a pansy.
