I guess this was a user vote list? Im sure if the internals at Time made a list, at least Wii Fit would be up there for innovation.

MGS4 appeals to a niche audience, sadly.

Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

I am not surprised... MGS4 succeeds as a interactive movie, and as presentation and story masterpiece...but as far as gameplay is concerned, its almost on the same level as those point and click CD rom adventures.
