I know that but still it might be better to review it the last week. The game have been hype way to early in my eyes since march.

Halo 3 was hyped like for years since it was announced.

3 months hype of MGS 4 is not as bad as two years hype of Halo 3.

^actually no it still wouldnt be a 90+,but no one will give it a 0

Out of 14 scores the avg is 97% 97*14/15 = 90.5


really 14 reviews?metacritic only lists 1 review


http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=27840

And then users listed 3 more on the second page that havent been added yet and this one.

So now 15 reviews!


oh ok that clears things up



tag:"reviews only matter for the real hardcore gamer"

The lasting appeal should also be a 10.... since it DOES come packaged with MGO as a multiplayer mode.... just say'in....

but 9.9 is a kinda decent score... i guess...

9.9? No perfect 10s all around? Meh, not interested anymore.

First time we as something from MGS4 were E3 2005 since then they have showed alot of trailers. I mean they showed up the bundle in march and since then alot trailers/gameplays. They should have started the big hype train in maj instead. The first review came out  may 1th way to early.

I'm in the same boat as you. Pre-order cancelled.



^9.9 out of 10 is in my eyes perfect score. Round it up = 10 out of 10.

No excuses Rock08, 9.9 is a mediocre score at BEST. MGS4 ain't what it's cracked up to be after all, i mean seriously? ONLY a 9.9/10? pssshh, don't want. /end sarcasm
