The Xbox Man on 05 May 2010
5/10
The game was shockingly mediocre. The story made absolutely no sense, the charm of MGS3 was lost. For a story driven game to have plot holes & contradictions, bad editing, weak script is unacceptable. The problem with MGS4 is it focuses on the story too much, less on the gameplay which is actually pretty fun, but whats the point if you can't play much. And the story itself is weak, so the games focus is pointless. As I re-examined the game after playing it once it was clear what went wrong, even Kojima said he wasn't satisfied with the product.
