Knowing the character of Big Boss pretty well, and after his amazing final speech in MG2, it seems even more retarded to resurrect him in MGS4 as a great warm fuzzy guy, ONLY TO DIE 20 min later. And that's a slowwwww 20 min. FoxDie is supposed to kill in seconds, haha, but we got treated like anime watchers where a 20 min heart attack if normal.
I'm glad SOMEone recognizes that :
A) The final battle is horrid; to compare it to VF1 is a huge insult to VF. Compare this fist fight to fighting Liquid in MGS1, when the controls actually worked. And mashing R1 in the final sequence = BARF. This should have just been a movie if it was gonna control like shit.
B) Fan service doesn't mean it's "GOOD". MGS1 is my FAVORITE GAME of all time -- I've been gaming since Atari -- and I thought the whole chapter was really pointless. But I still play through MGS1 now and then so I guess it didn''t fit me too hard there. Playing the old games before this also just highlighted how longwinded and bloated MG has become :P
If he wanted to go nostolgic, he should have been fucking Outer Heaven or Zanzibar, which haven't been rendered in 3-D before either -- and places that most MG players have HEARD about but never gone to, so it would be new to them.
It's def the RE4 of the series -- meaning the gameplay is fun but barely feels like it has what made the series great. It's MG -- I want to sneak around, not pilot a slow-ass mech through 100 robot drones.
