Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots PS3
Amazon.com Product Description:
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, is a next-gen experience complete with top-of-the-line graphics and surround sound designed for the Sony PlayStation 3. Featuring the most revealing display of Kojima Production's premier title, MSG4 details the world where Snake must under go his final mission. In a world overrun by private military companies (PMCs), wars are no longer fought over nations or ideologies. Instead, the wars of the future are micro-managed by overarching PMCs, right down to the bullet. New gadgets and abilities fuel Snake's journey deep into the enemy domains of the Middle East, South America, and beyond. New gear includes "Metal Gear Mk. II," the ultimate reconnaissance tool, and "Solid Eye," which gives Snake real-time information on enemies and his surroundings.

Octacamo will help Snake blend into surroundings. View larger. | Joined by a familiar cast of characters, Snake must once again return to the battlefield to confront his lifelong rival, Liquid Ocelot, who is manipulating the world's wars from the one world where soldiers will always have a place. But Liquid Ocelot is not the only one who will be able to manipulate the world's wars--Snake can destabilize opposing forces by working behind the scenes, supporting the local militia as they fight PMCs, creating a smokescreen that allows Snake to move freely within the war-zone.
MGS4 is a next-generation adventure set in the aftermath of MGS2: Sons of Liberty. The concept behind the latest Metal Gear Solid project is "no place to hide," and this edition in the series will force Snake into unexpected circumstances with an all-new storyline that breaks away in some ways from the previous MGS franchise entries. We don't want to spoil it for you, but, producer Hideo Kojima did reveal some very juicy tidbits about the game and the storyline when it was first announced at E3 of 2006. "Until now," said Kojima, "we've released two entries of the MSX2 Metal Gear series, and three entries in the Metal Gear Solid series. Add to this Portable Ops, and you get a total of six titles. All mysteries will be cleared up in Metal Gear Solid 4."
Kojima was very clear about the finality of MSG4, leaving gamers to wonder, "Will Snake die?!" When asked if the story will come to this sort of an end, Kojima responded without the slightest bit of vagueness, "It will come to an end." The MGS4 E3 trailer showed a number of characters from the Metal Gear and Metal Gear Solid histories. This final installment is sure to deliver loads of cameos, in fact, it is rumored that nearly all the characters from the series will make an appearance.
In addition to a return of classic Metal Gear Solid characters, the gameplay systems from part three are also expected to make a comeback. The camouflage system from part three will make it into MGS4, with the addition of "OctoCamo," Snake's most advanced stealth suit to date. The name appears to be formed from the words "Octopus" and "camoflauge," and players will be awestruck by the chameleon-like camo that changes with the surroundings. OctoCamo allows Snake to blend in with his environment as it digitally manifests nearby textures in real time. Think if it this way, if Snake is standing next to a wall worn out with holes, he too will appear to be riddled with holes. It has also been revealed that MGS4 will have online play, but no specifics have been released. Although very little information is known about the game's visuals, rumor has it that MGS4 is expected to be the finest representation of console graphics on the PS3, and it is expected that they will just get better and better as the game nears its release date.

I bought this game being a huge fan of the MGS series. The second I put this in I was disapointed. 2 hours later when I actually get to play a video game instead of watch a movie. I was disgusted at how awful the controls were how boring the game play was. All in all a terrible game. I would not recommend it to anyone. The only way you could love this game is if you put in a different game thinking it was this piece of trash.
Buy Uncharted 2 if you wanna play a real game.

The Metal Gear Solid franchise is a one of those where you either love it, or it simply is not really your thing. Considering it's "my thing", I'll now review it, comparing this one with the previous releases.
Metal Gear Solid 4 (MGS4 from now on) can be defined from the start as a "private joke". That is to say that it is close to impossible to fully appreciate the game unless you've experienced the past masterpieces from Hideo Kojima.
And when I say "fully appreciate", ... Read More

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, AKA MGS4 is the 4th game in the popular Stealth action franchise, and the first of the series to appear on the Playstation 3. I traded in some old Xbox 360 games to pick up this gem for a grand total of 80cents at my local Gamestop. As soon as I got home I decided to try it out, and as is the case with most of the PS3 games I've played it had to be installed, this game took longer than other games roughly ten to fifteen minutes and the fact that Snake the ...

I know by giving it less than 5 stars, alot of fans will vote me not helpful, but I must say this. If they wanted to make a movie, just make a movie. They did an awesome job on graphic. So may be they'll do good like Final Fantasy movies. But, I bought this game to actually PLAY, you know, participate in the action. I didn't want to just sit in my sofa and watch some dudes talking for 30 minutes. OK, I could skip the clip by pressing start button, but then I won't understand what is going on. This ... Read More
