My altered view of MGS4 now that I've beaten it.

MGS is the game equivalent of Japanese cartoons. Poor clichéd storyline with some semblance of morality and a huge rabid fanbase that watch everything to do with the subject.

Some of you people suprise me, though. From reading your posts I feel like I've fallen into one of those pretentious art forums and it's suprising that you enjoy this entertainment medium at all. Maybe you should go and read some Nietzche instead of complaining about a game that is so obviously below you.

It's not that. I enjoyed MGS4 for what it is. Interesting boss battles, amazing detail and presentation, and fun gameplay.

What I don't enjoy it for is its lengthy, preachy dialogue, broken story, and people telling me that it's a profound piece of art.
