Hideo Kojima’s 4th chronological entry into the Metal Gear franchise is a cinematic and gameplay masterpiece that elevates and advances the fabrics of the brand. Upon initial release, it’s online companion Metal Gear Online (2) provided some of the most unique gameplay and diverse character creation system that can be found in modern gaming. The story mode campaign is heavy on the cinematics but blends seamlessly into the gameplay. Controls feel fluid and has aged gracefully while bringing a legendary chapter in Solid Snake’s life to a good resting point

Metal Gear Solid 4 was a great game with excellent graphics, story, and gameplay. There was one major flaw in the game, though. There was TOO much story, nearly half of the game is cinemas and this gets in the way of the excellent gameplay system that was set up. The graphics are superb, with realistic characters and scenery 24/7, although I thought Otacon's character design was a bit bizarre looking. The major problem with the game is that the cinemas really do not stop. This also reduced game difficulty towards the end of the game, the final boss was WAY to easy. Personally, I liked Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater the best, because it had more gameplay than cinemas (the way it should be) and plenty of challenges, like the first Metal Gear Solid on PS1. MGS4 is great but falls into the way MGS2: Sons of Liberty was made (TOO MUCH CINEMA). MGS4 has more cinema than Sons of Liberty, which was a bit ridiculous. Despite the excessive cinemas (which were really cool), the storytelling was excellent and concludes the plot, making it less confusing. The gameplay was superb, allowing Solid Snake to do almost anything: auto-camo, use and buy a wide range of weapons, Close-quarters combat, sneak and hide in various ways. It is also a very realistic style of gameplay, although not as realistic as Snake Eater. Recommended.Read full review
Most people are playing PS4 games but if you're tired of buying a new game system and games every couple of years then get this game. It has excellent quality in graphics and has good storyline.

Metal Gear Solid 4 is a fantastic game! The box and disc arrived in good condition with no issues. Even today the graphics in the game have aged well and the gameplay, sneaking, story and soundtrack are all amazing! If you have a PS3, you need this game.

I bought this game cause i love this series ! what else ?! ;) But there is a paradox in this MGS4: it's a great game but if you didn't play the 3 first games on PS1/GC & PS2,you won't be able to understand all the story and all the flashbacks (and there are a lot of them !!!). It takes me 24h to finish this MGS4. I have 2 regrets for this game: 1) this game is too easy for those who have already play any mgs games. 2) the videos/cinematics are astonishing but there are too many of them !!! They take (at least) half the time of the entire game !!! So the gamer feels more spectator than actor (especially in the 2 last hours, a little syndrom from MGS2 ?) But, in the other hand, this game is a must-buy for all the lovers of this saga and because technicaly it takes the PS3 far far away ! :) It also has a great replay value (like all the others mgs). As the final song of MGS1 says: "the best is yet to come" (maybe in the 5th opus). ps: sorry for my frenglish, but i'm rusty...Read full review
Metal Gear Solid 4 is an excellent game. Very well produced. The game has an immense story line which draws upon the long lineage of the Metal Gear saga. The graphics are crisp, the sound immerses the player, and the game play is well thought out. Understand that the cinematic cut scenes are well done and will take a lot of time to sit through if you plan on indulging yourself into the full Metal Gear story line. That being said, this game will not be an easy game to quickly play through yet offers the viewer/player a highly imaginable world to escape to loose oneself in. As I have only had the game for approximately two weeks, I have yet to try the online play. Although I hear it is also well done. The difficulty of this game should be played on either the standard normal mode or higher. I am a decent adult gamer and am finding the current difficulty level rather easy (the normal level one step below the standard). This may be something for others to keep in mind when they decide to embark on this journey. Till next time, BPRead full review

Now that it's cheap, this is a great game to pick up if you don't have it already. Fans of the old games will not be disappointed as MGS4 updates some areas of the game while keeping the gameplay familiar and the unique aspects of the series intact.
