I recently finished beating MGS2, and I must say that I enjoyed watching every cutscene. I would feel bad to miss any of them, since they were so informative.

People were complaining of cutsecene length before the MGS4 release, but in this case it is quality instead of quantity.

In RPGs, as a kid I figured they had to have cutscenes and CGI, in fact, an RPG would be plain without it. But many RPGs just throw those in there for the sake of hiding a poor game, or trying to give depth to a story, and just coming out convoluted.

exactly i watched every scene in mgs4, and i beat the game twice and playing it my third time

I usualy watch all cutscenes until I beat the game a few times, once I figure out the story I start skipping them.

I don't think the cutscenes in MGS4 were long. They actually tell you important things that you should do in the next battle scene. They help me understand the game a bit more, As for MGS2, I haven't really gotten that far in the game.

The cgi in ff is brilliant imo

Awesome, aren't they?

Ive won the game 18 times and I belive I have max skipped 5-6 cutscenes lol Its so awesome to watch aswell, Keeps giving me goosbumps.
