I swear MGS4 is one of the most traded back in games Ive come across, its great but its so story based people only play it once. That being said, I still have my copy and might try it online sometime.

It is nice. I'm really looking forward to this.

Anyway, this is just the press release that was released by Konami the other day.

This is a timeless franchise that will have tremendous legs in the years to come.

The franchise is not over, just the story of "Solid snake" is over.

Its not bad if you have a friend or two to go in with you. The whole PSN community isn't as open or talkative as the XBL is.. so friends are the best way to enjoy this one

You mean getting swear at by every racial homophobic insult in the book?

I can't stand live but that why they got the mute function. The next best invention after toilette paper to get rid of the crap.

I loved the online, but the lag pissed me off so bad i sold it. Amazing game though! Best story I have played in a game.

Yea, it's the reason I bought a PS3 - I almost feel guilty for just plowing through the entire game in a few days,but then never replaying it.

It's understandable though.. there have been a ton of great games out since this one debuted. It's nice to see support for it though. Maybe it'll bring new people to the online aspect of it, and bring more people like yourselves back to it =)

The story seemed a bit too convoluted. But I will give them props on the production values in the game.

im siding with bgrundman on this one. the story was a little, well different, and the cut scenes were certainly cinematic

true.. the story had its faults.. but the fact that they managed to tie up so many loose ends was simply amazing

May have to one day try again. But with COD WAW and SoCom, etc it's hard to give it love.

Guess not ;)

It means headshots aren't an instant kill, the head needs as much damage as the body for the kill.

10 - Might bring my back to MGS4
This will be a good reason to dust off MGS4. I didn't get into much of the multiplayer, but what I played of it was pretty fun.

Online is really fun if you take your time with it. The only issue for me was that I sucked at head shots. So I'm glad there are new gameplay modes to turn of head shots. I havent really had time to go back to the game so i guess next week i'll have a reason to put some of my new games down and go back to it.

13 - PS3 is coming along but xbox live online is 100 times better
The new rule changes sound cool, especially since I can't make a head shot to save my life. Those who can, now lose the advantage lol.
The maps sound cool too. The forest firefight sounds like a Vietnam type experience. Maybe it will be even better if would ever get to 360!

No replay value with the online...just not that good. Try again Konami ditch hat ID BS.

14.2 - Too fn slowpaced and not very rewarding..
The controls scheme works great for Single -player but when you throw in the multiplayer matches it's awkward + Slowness. Not enough Game modes.
Plus I hate shooting games with the Dualshock controller.(Read my Profile) I bought MGs4 because I was intrigued by the story and was a very satisfying single player. Not many people have MICs on PSN. I hate that ID crap Konami has.

Someone stated earlier this is one of the most traded in games and they right just go ask some top game stores. If MGO was the sh^t that wouldn't be so.

To each, his own though..

I think really it just needs getting used to. It is slow and the controls are awkward (in the beginning) but if once you get over that it is terrific. I don't really agree about there not being enough game modes, though. There are 7 modes at the moment which is a pretty healthy number.

I do think the whole konami ID thing is a bit daft but it's a one off thing and once you've set one up (which takes about 2 minutes) you never have to worry about it again.

The problem is, really, that the game is so different to every other game out there that it can be pretty difficult to acclimatise to it. Once you do, though, it becomes very varied and rewarding. I now find most other MP games repetitive because I'm used to having so many options beyond 'point and shoot'.

Still, like you said 'to each, his own' and if it's not for you then so be it.
