MGS 4 IGN UK Review
 
http://au.ps3.ign.com/articles/877/877611p1.html

9.9/10

Guess they didn't have the funds to pay off IGN like Rockstar to give it a 10 like GTAIV.

[DAS REICH] Blitz 05-30-2008 06:50 PM

wow, i still haven't bought a PS3 because they're only selling the cheapo 40GB version, and thus I haven't played GTA4 yet... this is gonna be quite a summer since MGS4 comes with the rereleased 80GBPS3

Pyro 05-30-2008 06:55 PM

Gonzo 05-30-2008 07:16 PM

huh? they're limiting them? where'd you hear that?

WTF is this bullshit, why the hell is Sony only selling the 40GB garbage and limiting the 80GB, which is $500?

EDIT: http://ps3.psu.com/Extremely-limited...0003675-p0.php

is that what your talking about? that one is only the 40GB rereleased in grey rather than black. They're also wide-rereleasing the 80GB PS3.

Gonzo 05-31-2008 08:57 AM

i heard that cause i work a game stop. the number one store in the company i might add.

mR.cLeAn 05-31-2008 09:58 AM

Pyro 05-31-2008 05:55 PM

this site does great reviews that are always honest on the spot - and harsh where it needs to be

Gonzo 06-10-2008 12:57 AM

i just got done play it for like 2 hours and so far its amazing.

geRV 06-10-2008 08:07 AM

Was thinking of grabbing this, never really been a fan of the whole stealth game genre.

[DAS REICH] Blitz 06-10-2008 04:03 PM

fuck gamestop, i was going to buy the new $500 80GB PS3 that came with the game (to which I would sell back for credit), but now they added some $30 P.O.S. Official MGS headset that hasn't been selling well, but raised the price of the entire bundle by $60 bucks...

Gonzo 06-10-2008 06:21 PM

this game is more action than stealth

Gonzo 06-12-2008 04:30 PM

just finished the game it took me about 17 hours. holy fucking shit the end cut scene was so fucking long. but it tied up everything. and dont skip the credits

[DAS REICH] Blitz 06-12-2008 05:16 PM

the 80GB sold out by 10 am in my area... now I have to wait a few more days/weeks till i can buy it....

geRV 06-12-2008 07:53 PM

Might be picking it up tomorrow, only real complaint ive seen is about the cutscenes being long and annoying.

[DAS REICH] Blitz 06-12-2008 08:29 PM

aight, so i finally found the MGS4 bundle online. However, I never have played any of the MGS games. Since I've never played, do you recommend me keeping the game, since it got a 10/10 from IGN, or should I resell it as it is probably a niche game.

Its a stealth based game but ive seen people say theyre playing it like a regular shooter and having fun.

Gonzo 06-12-2008 08:35 PM

dude buy it play it love it. the game sums up everythign from metal gear on NES to MGS4 like the dude from ign said it is one of the greatest games ever made. this with out a doubt in my mind totally deserves a 10. i dont see how ign gave gta4 a 10 but thats for another day.

GTA 4 seems to have gotton a load of backlash from what ive seen on a load of gaming forums. Initially people were on the hype bandwagon agreeing with the reviews, then after 3 or 4 days people were just asking "is that it"?

Even saints row 2 is taking the piss out of gta 4:





GTA 4 would have sold regardless, but i think after this one people will be eyeing up the next one more carefully before jumping on rockstars cock.

Coleman 06-12-2008 09:56 PM

my brother just sold his wii and all his games for some extra cash towards this. He got like $200 in gift cards and basically has the PS3 and MGS for free. I doubt he'll sleep more than 4 hours a night until the game has been beaten. ha

[DAS REICH] Blitz 06-13-2008 10:28 AM

you guys think MGS4 is better than GTA4? I've yet to play either, and regardless I'm buying GTA4, but now its just a matter of should I keep MGS4 just because its a good game, rather than sell it to buy a game I would usually buy anyways (NCAA, etc.)

geRV 06-13-2008 10:35 AM

Now waiting for the game to install, 8 mins. :rolleyes:

Gonzo 06-13-2008 11:07 AM

yeah isnt it sweet watching snake smoke 4 1/2 butts. to comment on an earlier post the cut scenes arent annoying. they tell the story that is outstanding. saints row two kinda looks like shit the first one was decent at best. there were too many bugs to count.

Pyro 06-13-2008 05:47 PM

walmart had some sick deal or something witht he bundle.

yeah, shame they sold out in seconds online... and the nearest walmart near me is 40 miles away.

the deal was that you get $100 gift card with any blu-ray player. PS3 is a blu-ray player, thus you get the 80GB PS3 with MGS4 for $500 along with a free $100 gift card. Best buy has a similar deal.
