Forums - Sony - MGS4 quite simply the greatest game this gen no doubt!!

MGS4 is a decent movie, perhaps even a good one, but as a game it's little more than a glorified reskin of MGS3.



Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.

Glad to see someone else is annoyed by snake repeating everything everyone says.  You could tell snake that he repeats everything you say to him, and the only response you'd get is "I repeat everything you say?".  I really do like mgs4, but I find it amazing how people look over mediocre gameplay and such terrible dialogue.  Best game ever?  You must be easily pleased.  If this game was the first in a series of games there'd be very few people claiming it's the best game ever.  People would tear into it for its problems, especially the dialogue.

The dialogue could probably be rewritten to cut all cutscenes down to 2/3 their length without losing ANY of the story.

 

Thank you Cidien. You'll probably get reamed for that post but you are dead on. It still amazes me when people tout the great writing and story of MGS4.



Their just opinions.


And btw, to people complaining about the people with gripes about this game, stop making these stupid PS3 related praise topics.

Aw, it ain't so bad. You're still here, even if you're pretending to be Belgian now.

 



It's quite simply the greatest disappointment this gen for me yet.
