MGS 4 PS3 Review
Navneet Prakash, Jun 21, 2008 1129 hrs ISTI remember playing the first MGS way back in 1998; an unforgettable experience. Today, after 10 years, I review the last game in the series, one that's as good as all its predecessors.
Unparalleled gameplay and graphics, top-notch presentation, great sound effects, epic boss battles, high replay value, the most action-packed game in the series, brilliant cut-scenes, one of the best games ever made, Metal Gear Online.
Cons? Are you kidding me?

Presentation
This is one of the most polished products in the history of gaming. The production values will put Hollywood to shame with photo-realistic graphics and really good sound. The game runs smooth on the PS3 and despite the detailed textures and explosions, the frame rate doesn't drop and offers very smooth gameplay. The Octocamo suit and its changing textures really show off the efforts put by the team in making a graphically superior game. The amount of detail in each character's facial expressions during the cut-scenes is remarkable. The cut-scenes have amazing sequences, and must be watched. The presentation is just better than any other game ever. This is a game that has set a really high benchmark in terms of production values and I don't see any other game even coming close for years.
Final Verdict
This game is Hideo Kojima's final offering in the MGS series, and it's also his best. This game is better than anything I have ever played, it's way better than any other game in the market, and offers much more than your money's worth. For a true MGS fan, this is sheer delight. The plot ends perfectly, every character gets his/her due credit, the boss fights are epic, and the gameplay is intensely rewarding. There is tremendous replay value, especially with the online component that will be reviewed separately. Raiden is so cool, I'm positive we'll see a spin-off featuring him. The saga ends just right and will satisfy an MGS fan. This game makes owning a PS3 completely worth every rupee spent on it. I will miss looking forward to the next Solid Snake game, but will look forward to Hideo Kojima's next offering. This is a really good reason to buy a PS3, because you just can't afford to miss this game. Here's hoping we come across a game series that can remind us of the perfection that was Metal Gear Solid.
