  • why does this review have the mgs2 theme at the beginning ?

  • I cannot understand people who did not like this game or say its the worst of the series. Its flawless, the story is great and no gameplay? it has everything the others had and more stuff! Also people who skip cutscenes on their first play through are philistines and don't deserve to own a console or should stick to playing wii sports all day. Whenever I got a visitor and they skip cutscenes i feel like taking the controller away from them.

  • i want a metal gear 1 and 2 remake

  • Comment removed

  • 3:50 did he grab his balls lol

  • Couldn't have said it better myself.

    This game is epic.

  • mgs4 nothing short of flawless!!

  • if no one knows, when your online on this game, if you work together you can do more things. if you go to a high ledge you cant reach, hold triangle i think and a buddy can use your hand to climb on up then pull you up himself to get to a better vantage point or to sneak behind enemy lines easier.

  • Clearly one of the best games of all times.

  • i like how the suit accentuates snake's but crack

  • They should really remaster metal gear solid 1,2, and 3 for the new nonbackards ps3 because those games where awsome in every way

  • @shadowknight342 3 is fine the way it is

  • @shadowknight342 They made God Of War Collection, Sly Collection HD, why not Metal Gear Solid Trilogy HD?

    I mean the PS3 is actually using Blu-Ray so it should fit on one disc! :(

  • @sonickun95 when i saw your comment i jizzed a little

  • @Buhhdabelly123 Haha, that's nice :P

  • @sonickun95 kojima wud next edit the code of any of his masterpieces, even tho i'd love him too make hd collection, i know he won't, i mean he just about strech to make mgs3 on the 3ds, but that's just going to be port across basically, and plus i'm sure the only reason he agreed was due oppurtunity to try out 3d.

  • thats right to get a 10/10 all you need is very long bad ass cut scenes and fuck all gameplay

  • @xPocketRavex im going to guess you havent played through the whole game yet. i was like you i got this game and didnt play it for the first couple months cause it seemed so stupid but one day i had nothing to do so i picked it up and started playing it and after the first act you really get into and the gameplay starts to make a lot of sense and all the cut scenes seem a little long but it felt like a movie by the end but i controlled what happened and i really liked that.

  • @usuckers73 i'v played the whole game i get all the story line but compared to the first 3 on Playstation 1/2 this game suck and the worst is the 3rd act i made a save just so i didn't have to play that act act 4 would have been better if you fought against humans instead of robots (but i guess he like robots he is from japan) act 5 way too short. act 1 and 2 i liked untill you rescue that stupid dying bitch naomi and they should have kept Liquids voice. MGS4 seems dumbed down for todays gamers

  • @xPocketRavex yes it is dumbed down and made easier and the 5 act was short but all together it still took me 32 hours on hard to complete but i did watch every cut scene so that added a lot of time. act 3 was the worst act but i still liked it so for me i really enjoyed the game a lot and im sad to hear u didnt but hey wat am i to do cheers

  • Snake will never die! 

  • finally, a badass raiden.

  • i bought this for my friend because i didnt have a ps3 though when i played this i wish i had and ever since he sold his ps3 i long for this

  • we salute for you SOLID SNAKE! :)

  • I cried at the end...

  • @theclayzone same

  • did both snake and Bigg boss die, also why in the extra face camo big boss has no skin

  • @callofdutyguy9 Big Boss died but Snake doesn't; he goes on to live the rest of his short life with Otacon who will document Snakes life so as people know what a hero he is.

    The Big Boss camo has no skin because it's meant to be Big Boss' corpse (He was assumed dead for a large portion of time) but it is in fact Solidus Snakes face/corpse (You can tell because they have opposite eyes missing to eachother, Solidus has left and Big Boss has right)

  • @SammiiDoogles way too give out one of the biggest spoilers in the game..... but i guess it doesnt madder after 2 years...

  • @SammiiDoogles He's no hero never was never will be.........

  • @SENORJ1 Haha :P

    So he says, but he undeniably is one of the best heroes in gaming.

  • Theres only ONE part I din't like about MGS4 the UBER UBER long Cutscense in Act two Sure they where good the first time but when you play the game over they get kinnda combersome.

  • this is definately my second favorite game on the ps3, considering my first would be god of war 3, thats pretty damn good.

  • MGS 4 is the BEST GAME EVER! . Period.

  • the only think i dont like about this game is that it ENDS i wish they would continue with solid snake (yes i know peace walker is coming out but it just wont be the same since its going to be on 360 not to hate on ya guys but the blu ray disc is what makes this game legit since they can make it really really big like in mgs 4) but if they continued with solid snake it would become stupid and i timed how long the last cut scene were after the fight and it was a good hour and a bit

  • @usuckers73 cut scene was* sorry guys

  • mgs3 and mgs4 sucked. 1 and 2 were good tho.

  • @ugqx I'm not sure about MGS3 but MGS4 got 10/10, so yea

  • One of the best games ever, Fuck I am Xbox fan boy but when I first get To Play MGS4 I both a Ps3!!! and I'm heppy. :)

  • gay, gay gaaay

  • im playing 4 now for the first time and i gotta say im very disappointed theres basicly no gameplay. i play the others pretty much for the cut scenes looking forward to the next one but in 4 its all cutscene and takes the fun out of watching them..

  • @SENATORPAIN1 If there was no gameplay it would be called a MOVIE

  • Did I just see a Playboy magazine at 2:46 glimpsing by?

  • @38GencFenerli yep u can look at playboy in this game but no nude and u can place it down to distract enemies

  • @usuckers73 Lol thats funny.

  • MGS 2 intro music!!

  • i salute you snake

  • Does anyone know how much sony bribed ign to give this game a 10?

  • @ahmadclk huh? this isn't even owed by sony. it just came out on the ps3. its not even published by sony. so shut the fuck up.

  • @SlipknotFans123456iu go fuck ur self u fucking sony fanboy piece of shit. I was just joking. I have this game and I actually enjoyed it. But i was just joking.

  • I skipped every god damn cutscene, holy shit it takes forever to get to the gameplay, and even when you do get to the gameplay I feel like it doesn't have enough stealth, I think they should've stayed in the middle east, best level. 8.9/10

  • Was it Just me that got a little sad that MGS had come to an end. Growing up playing MGS1 on the PS1 and becoming immense at it during the 90's to playing MGS4 on PS3 knowing that in all probability that thats it. I still say MGS1 was the best.

  • @megaman2000 I have two words for you my friend PEACE WALKER!!! mgs will never die!!!

  • well... mass effect is still better =)

  • Same here. I feel your pain.

  • MGS4 is still good. But only the first 3 acts. MGS3 is my favorite but the first 3 acts of MGS4 top MGS3 it's just a shame the whole rest of the game was all action. (Robots aren't fun to sneak around and act 5 was impossible stealth)

  • all acts were good and bad in their own way. Act 1 was good but had no boss fight. Act 2 was badass...act 3 was a little lame because u had to follow tat one guy and act 4 was the best act of all. Act 5 was a little too short although the final boss fight was awesome. Best fist fight in all vid games.

  • it sucks that this game isnt on xbox... :(

  • hahahahaaa!! ps3 FTW

  • They made a series featuring Raiden a sub character for the x-box

  • i havent played the game but sure does bring me to try out a ps3 for some of it games for example metalgear solid as ive seen it before it looks great 1 of the reasons i must get a ps3 but overall stick w/ the 360 guns of patriots great game i wish it was on 360 damn

  • MGS4+MGO= perfect tactical gaming experience :) (and no im not a ps3 fanboy i just love this game)

  • get the limited edition it comes with the blue ray sound track and a behind the scenes look at a lot of things its perfect for the true fans plus its only like 30 bucks :D and if mine ever broke or got lost etc, i would pay 100 bucks for it haha :D

  • Fanboys suck!

    This game kicks soo much ass.

    One of the best games of ALL TIME! ...ALL TIME! *inner Kanye released*..lmao

  • Liquid only thought there was an antidote, but Naomi confirmed there was no possible way to extract the virus from Snake at all. At first the virus was mutating inside snake but Drebin injected him with a "Fresh batch" of Fox die so that the mutated version of it would kill snake or anyone else for that matter.

  • I should've known that an IGN video about METAL GEAR SOLID 4 would be to prepubescent fanboys what picnic baskets are to Yogi bear.

  • Hideo Kojima = Epic kickass jap

    nuff said.

  • this game isnt on pc u dumb shit.

  • @vankwisha Because it's actually good.

  • @vankwisha no shit

  • its still can be a stealth game, but i know what you mean. it does feel like a run through level shooter games. i had hoped it would be like snake eater. its still a great game but i wish it could have had more of a stealthy feeling like the other ones did

  • Screw you

  • SCREW YOU. its true anyway.

  • Thats the biggest mistake you've ever made

  • "This is no Bang or Whimper, instead this is an explosive (...) that doesn't simply raise the bar, it obliterates it.!"

    Enough said.

  • can u get this on Xbox?

  • well this game is not for xbox 360 but there making a new one for it its called metal gear solid rising or something.

  • ya but its still in alpha stage. they cant even get the engine to work bcuz its the first time thay worked with 2 different consoles

  • no you noob step up to the better system

  • No, fuck the xbox no one likes xbox, ps3 is the ultimate, 360 is the gayest piece of shit ever. get a ps3 man screw the 360

  • Fan boy

  • and at the last picture you can tell that Solid Snake is really the old grumpy guy from Gran torino. xD

  • 2:46

  • Too bad i have an Xbox 360 (so no MSG4 for me) :(

  • i had an orgasim watching this review, this game is so f**ing awesome!!! main reason im getting a ps3 slim, keep kicking ass Hideo Kojima!!!

  • I salute Snake

  • goodbye forever solid snake

  • You will be missed Solid Snake.

  • @tmetroid yeeee buddy

  • By the way i still never beaten the game or played it for about 2 months now....i love it soo much and knowing that me personally is not a gamer, i play this for HOURS man, HOURS!! I play games (any games) for about 1 to 2 hours. MGS4 keeps me playing for more than 10 hours...

  • well then play fallout 3 that will keep u playin for more than 90 hours

  • should i get PS3 with MGS4 or 360 with gears 2 and Halo 3?

  • idk, I havent played gears 2. halo 3 is a must have for online play. mgs4 is like playing in a movie, it's great but it's up to you.

  • yeah i know im just trying to get some opinions of people. im still not sure tho

  • I think theres a bundle with MGS4 and Killzone 2 or just wait for a PS3 Slim bundle.

  • Yea im getting ps3 slim

  • depends wat u want if u want fun online go with xbox and halo 3 if u want srs story lines (not saying xbox dosnt have) then go to ps3

  • he makes it sound even more epic then it allready is... DAMN this game is fine!

  • mniam! ;D

  • i bought this game 3 days ago and ive never played mgs before and i loved it its a must buy

  • u should play all of them cuz ur missing the story

  • I consider myself a hardcore gamer, but i hated this game. Too many cutscenes, annoying environments, etc etc. You guys understand me?

  • dude im sorry you wont enjoy this game unless u are a MGS fan i love when my friends pick up this game cuz i like showing people the story but unless u played all of them u will never get this game MGS just isnt for everyone and not intended for the immature audience this story tells you about the threat of Nuclear warfare i think they shouldve kept the japanese controls and should not have had ryan payton as the lead game dev

  • you mean when the circle button was accept, and the x button was decline? i miss those days. oh well. call me old fashion but i still play it as a stealth game, and on my first play through i played it on solid normal, now i am on big boss hard, man! the enemies can see through walls! i haven't gotten the chance to play MGO2, i guess i will go through that long tedious process to sign up. oh well, i like this game, reminds me of all the old games, (ah!)

  • yea i played it as a stealth game but when i bought it (release date) my first play through was on big boss hard well quick to say it was HARD! my final play through was 19 hours and alot of deaths but i played like non stop hahahaha.. then after a few go throughs on solid normal i did The Boss Extreme under 5 hours and got the big boss Emblem and the Mask its so sweet and i have stealth to

  • how is stealth? never felt like getting it in this game, head it was awesome though. it is funny how much the stealth camo has improved, i remember in MGS1 how it used to be green! i am going for the bandana and mask. oh and one quick question? is it worth buying any of the scene expansions?

  • yea i like the expansions playing as raiden and vamp kick ass as well as others the stealth in this game is cool except Gekkos can still see you. but its all good the thing i find "Difficult" is the lack of chaff gernades never thought id need them as much as i do

  • i remember how chaff crazy i was, hording all 18 of them and at the place after you beat raven with cameras all over the wall i would run around in circles laughing manically until i ran out of chaffs and died.

  • duh.. another ps3 hater who havent even played the game. there are no annoying environments. And the only bad thing anyone can say about the game is the length of cutscenes. What the fuck do you mean by etc. etc. anyway? I cant think of ANYTHING else bad :P so obvious you havent played it

  • ITs good it came for ps3 only coz every good game in the world coms on 360 and pc but never on ps3!!!!!!Left 4 dead,Halo and ........

  • I wish it was out on the 360.

  • fucking love MGS best game series of all fucking time, so long snake, gonna miss ya! xD

  • i just bought this 2 days ago. this game is the best looking game i have.  i got fnr4, now u know im not kidding

  • is there a european extreme-esque game style? I'd love to play that (thats what I liked about the MGS series, you couldnt just go around willy-nilly and shoot the crap outta everyone)

  • Wow its really amazing how many people are talking how tis game is god like. I've heard some people bought a PS3 soley for this game

  • yeah like me, or better said, ive TRADED my 360 just for THIS.

    And it was DAMN WORTH IT.

  • i was one of them

  • i hate game reviewers that use numbers. thats all theyre concerned about and they forget what they actually mean. just tell us if its a good game to get, rent, or not.

    and a 10 is a perfect game. this game is so awsome, and i am so glad i bought it, but,

    this game is not perfect

  • Although IGN and most people are criticizing the Cut Scenes. They are fucking awesome. They may be a bit long at times, but you don't even notice. Hands down one of the best games I've played/ I have the game. It's fucking amazing. It's simply a master piece. all the customization on the weapons and stuff, music, graphics, gameplay, voice acting, sound, etc. It's just perfect. People I didn't even play the Metal Gears all I did was read about the story before and even I'm enjoying it. :P

  • you are right altough a lot of people say that this is just a big effing movie, this game has created the best cutscenes ever made the best story, this game just put together all the pieces of the puzzle, it is actually on my top 5 games incluiding the other metal gear lol, but omg i just loved it it is a freaking masterpiece

  • ONE of the best games ever made?

    excuse me but there is NO game that can compare to this, the storyline and tie ins to all the other metal gear games, music, gameplay, graphics and just everything is so goddamn perfect it sends shivers down my spine every time i play it.

  • i feel gta4 and this were in a tough battle for game of the year but i would give it to gta

  • what??? this is 100000000000000000000000000000­00000000000 times better, gtais good though

  • ummm no

  • i feel mgs 4 is better

  • this game rocks one of my favoritee titles for the ps :D i onw the completa ps collection =D

  • how did this game not win game of the year?!?!?

  • hideo left and the series died. 360 fans your only getting the left over. This is no longer mgs because its not being made by hideo anymore and that its running on your system even thought multi platform so espect a pure letdown.

  • and you will need 12 dics to play it hahah

  • mgs 3 was gonna be a launch title for the ps3 they shouldve done that

  • I can't stand metal gear online.

  • personally i hate the mgs series far as the gameplay. thats why its not everyones favourite. yes, the environment and graphics are great not to mentioin the weps too. It just the stealth part of it and how you have to be so sneaky all the time. If u get seen ur dead , buy im not good witht this kinda stufff so jst my opionion. i got mgs 3 about 4 mnths ago, i couldnt get past like the second chapter and the gameplay was slugish not paced enough too much being stealth although thats the game.

  • I hear ya..

    every player has to dislike a gener no matter how hardcore he is.

    respect

  • yer thanks man. wats ur top 10 games?

  • I cant put them in order, but: 1- MGS1,2,3 & 4 2-Street Fighter(ALPHA3, 4) 3-DEVIL MAY CRY (1,3,4) 4-STREET OF RAGE 3 5-SUPER ROBOT WAR ALPHA 3 6-RESIDENT EVIL 2,4 7-SUPER MARIO CART DS 8-SONIC 3 9-FATAL FURY WILD AMBITION 10-SHINOBI 3(SEGA GEN.) I WOULD LOVE TO SEE A NEW STREET OF RAGE THIS GEN.
  • I'm not really looking forward too Rising but i am looking forward to peace walker!

    I don't wanna play as Raiden, I'm guessing there will be no stealth in rising?!

  • theres not it is going from tactile espionage action to lighting bolt action

  • BEST GAME EVER MADE!!

  • BEST GAME EVER!!!!

  • i cried a little...

  • pansey

  • i loved this because of the cut scenes not for the gameplay. best story but not the best game.

  • this game is fuqkin awsome u exaber08 do u play MGO(Metal Gear Online)

  • okay,i wasnt so sure about this game at first,then i bought it,im not very far but i love this game!!!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • what does metal gear solid have without snake? they need snake i dont wna play as raiden or any other faggot creation it's jus gotta be a young snake or big boss surley

  • Kojima shuld just make another epic game

  • Well or make a games like this one , the reason i am buying the PS3 is because of this game and i have a wii which is LIKE ONLY FOR PARTYS

  • Subsistence was better, but this game is still one of the best this generation

    If Kojima remade Snake Eater on the MGS4 engine/mechanics I'd cum buckets

  • lmao innit i would actually have to have a wank i'd be that exited lol

  • i have played halo 3 and gears and i was a huge xbox fanboy when i got my first halo bundled with xbox 1 but last summer when i saw that mgs4 bundle i had to grab it the box design made me want to grab it as well and once i opened it and bought myself hdmi from ebay and first time playing mgs game and my first playstation console ever i must say that mgs4 is just jaw dropping and the ps3 is highly given alot of doubts that it shouldn't be given this system and bundle is the best and mgs pwns !!!

  • I've already finish this game for 7th times...and still playing:-)

  • This game is probably THE best game in the world, Snake is the ultimate character u could ever play but the voice acting has got worse over the years at times. I BEG konami an kojima to stop talkin about ending the series!!! WTF? And NO i dnt wna play as fucking raiden he is fucking lame mate. They best be making many more as far as im concerned.

  • i also think it's the best game by far

  • Is this game a steal for 29$???????I wanna get a good game with a storyline that im accually going to care about and good gameplay.

  • Hell yes! Your looking at 40 hours of cinematics in the campaign, and around 30 hours of gameplay depending on how u play

  • plus mgo

  • It's unfair to try and bash on metal gear, I mean you wouldn't stand a CHANCE.

    Dude Gears of War doesn't even come CLOSE to this level of videogaming. This game is PERFECT.

    Metal gear has been here since the NES and has been dominating over a decade, so take your Gears of war, and your halo, and shove 'em good.

    Because they're just another lame FPS, and another gory action game with no depth and to much focus on online.

    And now how about a nice cup of shut the FUCK up.

  • You said it...Perfectly.

  • I agree with the sp but.. have you played halo 3 online? It's amazing.

  • I like MGS Online alot more then gears or gaylo

  • ehh multiplayer sint that great

  • 6:00

    This is the only thing in the world that tears me up for some reason. What an epic moment.

  • he couldn't just say it takes place 5 years after the events after MGS2?

  • This is a great game. I havent played the previous MGS before and I got addicted to this one since the first hour I played it.

  • well all the other mgs games are as good as this 1 :) each 1 has an great storyline

  • i bought dis game even doe i dnt have a ps3 xD but ima get one soon

  • MGS, for the fucking win.

  • The best game ever made: MGS, no doubt about it.

  • I salute you Snake !! You're fuckin awesome !

  • 10/10 not 9.9/10
