Well, in 8 or so days, we will know the truth behind the cutscenes :D
No foreign sky protected me,
No stranger's wing shielded my face.
I stand as witness to the common lot,
survivor of that time, that place.

i would love to have movie length cut scenes only when I know when there coming. I kinda have to be prepared for something as long as this. All I'm wondering is if there are really huge lengths, then we damn well better have an option to pause it!
All this talk about MGS4 cutscene length reminds why I never played any of the games. Personally FFX exceeded my threshold cutscene length and this is just ridiculous. So MGS4 has taken a huge leap toward the "niche" status.
I personally never thought cutscenes greater than 5 minutes belong in any action type game.
I have the feeling that there are a few cutscenes in this game where I will start the scene sober and end it completely shitfaced.

Lol, I might have to try that. I am sure once the game hits stores people will be able to give a pretty exact length of these cutscenes, so it should settle some of the debate. Anyone know if MGS4 includes interactive cutscenes a la Resident Evil 4?
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
@akuma587, I don't think any of the MGS games have used quicktime events during cut scenes.
I just read in this months issue of Super PLAY (Swedish gaming magazine), under the headline "Three things Konami wants hidden from Super PLAY's readers":
"Non-Interactive Playing time
It will hardly come as a surprise that the finishing part of the MGS saga contains long cutscenes. It's about as obvious as that there will be bosses to fight (another subject that Konami does not want us to mention). Konami does not want us to write about the lenght of the cutscenes, and that might be understandable given the critique aimed at MGS2. But will anyone avoid playing the game just because there is an one and a half hour mainly(principally?) non-interactive cutscene awaiting you in the end?
Obviously, there is a really long cutscene in the end. I'd say that this guy is lying through his teeth (or more likely, twisting words, which amounts to about the same thing). Also, Konami is trying to keep the negative aspects of the game under wraps. Anyone encountering gaming magazines/sites NOT mentioning this should think again about how independent these are.
The other two headlines, btw, were product placement and Installation. Apparently, Konami did not think that the fact that you have to install the game MULTIPLE TIMES were worth mentioning in reviews...
EDIT: SP gave MGS4 a solid 9 by the way.
This is invisible text!
