OoT or MGS4?

I stopped reading at the part where you agree'd with the guy that said OoT didn't do much/anything new. Can you understand why I can't take such ludicrous comments (and as a result, this thread entirely) like that seriously?

Of course mgs4's story and atmosphere trumps all over Mario for the Nes. Like you said, I was being an ass. It's a rediculous comparison because it's a direct comparison, kind of like most people are doing with zelda and mgs. And you just can't do that. Does OoT gameplay holed up better today than MGS4? Even I'm not dumb enough to question that. (MM, however...)

I'm going to give the benefit of a doubt on the whole thing, because hindsight is 20/20, and backlash is a bitch, and not a couple of weeks ago people were actually defending the claim that "GTAIV IS TEH PERFECT!" I'm going to wait a couple of months before I believe this question can be honestly asked.

OoT did a lot.. but not much new. it just seemed new because it was in 3D. thats why A Link to the Past is my favorite Zelda. Its the one that laid the formula for what i think is the greatest game of all time.

ive already made my case for why zelda and metal gear can be compared, i guess its just not good enough for you. i do agree with you though about the last thing you said. this question probably should have waited another couple months. mgs is just too new. but i think thats the same reason that prompted me to ask it in the first place. i think it has a legitimate chance for dethroning ocarina of time, although i personally dont think it will.
