Even if you haven't played another MGS. You should get it. You will love it and want to buy the others. :D

Ermm...no. It's not a game for everyone. And he won't understand the story without playing the first 3.

Umm. Yeah. That is what I did. It's called play it, and enjoy it. Play the others and then come back and play this again.

Don't get MGS, it is an absolutely fantastic game, but it is made almost in homage to all mgs fans that have played the previous games and get the plot. All you'll probably feel is that the game is a long winded and cheesy cinematic expirience with way to much load time. That said there are moment where I was left is absolute awe and it easily rank as one of the best expirience I've had on the PS3.

Batman from that list however, is probably the best all-rounder game. The demo from PSN did not even properly displayed 1 tenth the awesomeness that awaits you in this game.

My thoughts exactly.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

And what makes you think he'll enjoy it? MGS4 is the most risky purchase out of all the games.

Good choice on the collection, I'm currently working through GoW2 as we speak, I hope Sony does this with the MGS games, then you could work through that collection too!

Me too, got it with only playing MGS1 on the PS1 years ago. Was a good game but far too much story and loads of bits that seemed like they should've been shocking or amazing to me but weren't because I hadn't played the other games. a good 60-70% of playtime is just watching cinematics.

 

Batman on the other hand is truly an amazing game, more so if you've seen the Batman films but you don't need to have seen them to play it and get everything since its full of codexes and stuff that fill you in on whose who.

I started from the first Metal Gear on the MSX2 platform. I would say MGS4 is probably the best game of this generation. But that's because I've started from the very beginning, therefore, I can appreciate the story and Kojima's twisted humor. Like mibuokami said, it's a homage strictly to all MGS fans who played the previous games. Newcomers will probably find the story boring/difficult to understand.

 

If people truly understood MGS's story, they'll notice a resemblance between the story of MGS and Assassin's Creed.
