Wow, i have to say, i cant believe that no one else has started a topic about this game yet. There must be at least one other fan of the series on here. I thought i'd start a topic myself to add a tiny bit more life to this place.


So, anyone played/watched this game yet? I spent last weekend and most of the past 2 days just watching all cut scenes, extras and a lot of gameplay. I have to say, it looks bloody amazing. I wish i had a PS3 so much because from what ive seen, it really does look like a game that will go down in video game history.

I love the story. While some things either dont make sense, or are just plain stupid, its just so great finally knowing the whole story and how it all ends. Its a very emotional story, too. Im not gonna lie, the epilogue of the game brought a tear to my eye, which a game has never made me do before.


Im sure those of you who are interested in the game but dont own it have already watched loads of videos on youtube or something. But incase anyone would like to see all the cutscenes, check out this guys account:

Or if you'd rather watch someone play through the whole game, check out this account:

Maybe I'll play it at one of my friends' houses sometime, but I'm not a MGS fan. I've never played any of the games, so I don't have much of an opinion on it.

metal gear is a beast, 1 was amazing, i thought 2 was crud, 3 was pretty good... but nothing compares to twin snakes on cube, that was spooning mental i LOVED it, the one thing i hate is that theres so much bullocks like characters who can fly, and contol bee's and spoon thats what ruins it for me.

i watched some of mg4 it looks very good, but the whole blending in suit pisses me off, and also things like the rolling in a barrel... pff... i will play it at my freinds sometime soon. but i doubt it will beat the first. the first is probally one of my favortie games ever.

Befor anything else, I'll have to gaga and have a heart attack for the pure fact that Ck posted again after a short while. ARGLEGARGH-hkk-GAH!

Anyway, on to MGS. The storyline itself, I believe at some point did a sort of triple back-flip and raped itself on the way down, yet I still can't help but love the series. The first one is one of my favourite games of all time, especially with the boss battles. Psycho Mantis was awesome! MGS2 never really caught my attention, other than the last boss, who was really cool to fight against. I loved MGS3, other than 'The Pain' and 'Volgin', the bee controller, and the lightning guy. They didn't seem to fit well into the series. MGS4 looks to be awesome and I really want to play it for myself. Can't wait to see Screaming Mantis in action. :p

Theres a couple of Screaming Mantis videos on Youtube. Im sure you'll love the cutscene after you beat that boss. I sure did.

Also, Zero Punctuation review. Funny, as you should expect.

I'm thinking about getting a PS3. MGS4 looks awesome, and I'm playing through the first game on my comp using epsxe.
