More gameplay in MGS4 will be for the better. Wading through MGS2's cut-scenes and codec sequences were a little annoying. MGS3 had a better balance and while it still had some long cut-scenes, I think that they were much cooler than MGS2's.
I brought MGS2 out and tried to play it again. All I can say is wow.... the codec/cutscenes could have been toned down a little bit. Starting out the Big Shell was tedious mashing on X or Triangle (to skip either cut-scene or codec).
