If the demo is any indication of the the whole game, and I believe it is, than it is far better than a 3 out of 10. The gameplay is more than solid and the cutting technique is both fresh and fun.
The only complaint I have is the plot is nonsense and the writing is nothing but exposition. But that is the very definition of Metal Gear story telling. It may be nonsense but it makes about as much sense as any MGS I've played. Well except for the first MGS, that almost made sense.
I've read three reviews for MGR:R and they have all been very positive and match up with what I felt about the demo. I'll have to read this Playstation Lifestyle review just to see a differing opinion, but since I've never heard of the website before I find the situation very dubious. Is it even a legit website or is it just some dude's blog that desperately wants to be a legit website?
