@StarCraft... disparity in review scores, you sure of that? I mean... it's either got 8, 9, or 10. Not exactly the greatest range of conflicting scores in the world.

Most reviews seem to be either 10 or 8. The tens seem to be coming from series fans. The comments in the 8's make it seem like the reviewers dont like the series and only give it decent scores because they know fans will.

I'm not saying thats a bad thing. Any game just needs to appeal to its fans. But still, the trend is there.


 im going to disagree. im not a HUGE fan of the series. I cant tell you how upset past MGS games made me just because of how fragile the scheme and controls were....but this game is worthy of buying a PS3.

As others said the dialogue could be considered corny, but i think its delivered very well and i really have a problem calling something corny when the premise and characters involved are insanely over the top to begin with. i mean isnt th emain antagonist a split personality based on a limb replacement? lol. This whole package is phenomenal and i dont think the 8's are a result of "non fans" but a result of people with an agenda or a subjective view before they even review it. I also should note people giving it a 10 also fall into a seperate category of probably WANTING to give it a 10 before they even review it.

But then again im from the mold where any type of art, yes i consider videogames art, shouldnt get a 10/10 simply because once you reach perfection theres no room for improvement theoretically.

Ill just say MGS4 is th egreatest experience all around ive ever enjoyed . no scores needed. this is the greatest game ive ever played.
