2011 I believe. I tried going in full stealth but kept getting caught lol.  The return to Shadow Moses resonated so much though especially with Snake having flashbacks like "a surveillance camera?? and everything is weathered. When "The best has yet to come" plays it did hit me.

Ahhh... Ghost running MGS4 was the most fun I've ever had with the game. That's how it should be played imo. It can only be done if you had experience of course. I grew up with the series so I had to endure. You have save and quiet each time you get caught before leaving the area. That's how saving works after all. Nothing you do in each area is recorded unless you enter a new one.  

I still have a copy so I might go back to it one day, it still holds up very well visually. I do think MGS5 is a return to form. Shame that Hideo probably won't have a hand in the future of the series. It really won't be Metal Gear anymore.
