I've only ever played and finished MGS4 in the series and I think it's awful. The story's absolutely terrible as it's incredibly convoluted, poorly-paced and forgettable. The characters are poorly written and lame, the graphics are ugly, the music was ill-fitting and the gameplay bored me to sleep murmurous times.

It's easily one of the most overrated games of all time, I'd bet it only received praise from critics because it's Japanese or because the for some reason beloved Kojima directed it, if it were a western game it would've been ripped apart by critics for being the rubbish it truly is. It's funny that Kojima made his name with the Metal Gear Solid franchise but the best game he's ever been involved with is Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, which is a brilliant game. I couldn't care less for MGS5, I'm just curious to see the ratio of gameplay to cut-scene this time, it'll probably be even worse lol.

Graphics are ugly? When they came out they were the best ever seen on a console. The story doesn't make sense as you didn't play 1-3.

actually metal gear 4 graphics were medicore

That has to be a joke. Name a single release in 2008 that looked anywhere close. Then again you think Crysis 2 is the best looking console game so that says it all there

Funny, the people you stand by on Crysis 2 said that MGS4 was the best of 08...

It looks pretty bad, but at least it looks better than Crysis 2, especially the Xbox 360 version.
