Metal Gear Solid - Worse - MGS4 was awful. The gameplay was good (would've been better without the Drebin points), but Kojima ruined the story. Nanomachines being the answer to everything was a complete joke. Also Otacon crying over a one night stand and Akiba & Meryl taking out the wave of Frogs were just classic Hollywood cheesiness. Portable Ops was okay; I did enjoy the comic-style cutscenes.

Final Fantasy - Worse - Dissidia was crap, and Crisis Core is one of the worst games I've played this gen. The dialogue is freaking laughable; it's gothic-poetry badness. As for the gameplay, all you have to do is press X. Hell, Zack will even run up to the enemy by himself. The encounter rates were predictable and annoying. It's annoying when you take a few steps to the side to get to the treasure, but when you go back to where you were, you get sunk into a battle. The DMW was a dumb feature. This thing enters the modulation phase every five seconds during a boss battle. You have no control over it, and it felt like the game was the one playing the game. I don't like what I'm hearing about FFXIII.

Silent Hill - Worse - Didn't like Origins. Homecoming was alright, but it wasn't as great as the first three games. Haven't played Shattered Memories yet.

Mario - Better - Super Mario Galaxy is one of the best games I've played this gen. Can't wait for the sequel.

Shin Megami Tensei - can't really say - I enjoyed Devil Survivor a lot, whole lot more than Persona 4. I didn't like what they did with the Persona remake - new artsyle, music. Really excited for Strange Journey though. Finally, the spiritual successor to Nocturne is coming.

Did you understand the story in MGS4 at all?

Yes which is why I found it awful.
