They arent in the same gen, but I am going to say this:

In my opinion MGS4 is beyond any game I have ever played in my life, FAR beyond.

Thats all I have to say.

 

 well that is to be expected from a next gen game. people were saying the same thing about ocarina of time ten years ago. which did a better job of this though?

 

Of those two games, I would have to say MGS. When OoT came out, it did nothing that was not done before it. It even did most of it at less then the best out there. What it did so well was put all the elements in one game, and do a very good job of all of them.

While this made for a great game, it did not make me feel like it advanced gaming in any way, it was just a great game.

MGS4 is like playing nothing that has ever come before it. Aside from Crysis on high, no visuals out perform it. No game has ever connived a story in such a dramatic fashion. Not only that, but the game Mechanics are second to none.

That being said, I still don't think MGS4 is the best game of all time relative to its generation (That's probably SMB). I do think it's better at it then OoT.
