Pisses me off that everyone's forgotten about MGS4.

My only list MGS4 would make is the biggest disappointment list. It's main problem was and is its story, which is a huge mess and not what it should've been. It's a pretty big flaw for a game of a series I play largely for the story. Also, the game wasn't that great otherwise, either.

Did you play any of the other MGS games? Are you a fan? If you answer no to these, then you can't really comment on the story.t

MGS4 had the best story of any MGS game. It was incredible. "War has changed..." was such a terrific entry point for the plot. MGS always has and always have a strange storyline.

"Also, the game wasn't that great otherwise, either."

That's not what (all) the reviews said. That's not what I thought. It was terrific.

This again... Yes, I've played practically every MGS game and I loved them. Well, I loved MGS1, MGS2, and to a lesser extent, MGS3. I didn't like Portable Ops due to its horrible controls, although the game didn't sound all that bad otherwise. MGS4 just threw everything it could from the series, forming the ultimate mess, and everything was explained with nanomachines. It sure did explain a lot of things but it didn't feel at all satisfying. Even the big plot twist was pretty lame after the initial shock, which I can't say about the other MGS games.

And about gameplay, I don't think it was bad at all. I just think it wasn't a masterpiece in that regard. I liked it but it wasn't that great.
