"I realize that even though Metal Gear Solid 4 is one of the best games of all time, some people won’t like it. No one will ever make a game that makes everyone happy. I understand that. What I don’t understand why people dislike the game. How can those that are mesmerized by the games’ awesomeness understand where the haters are coming from? I just happened to do a little research and discovered some reasons that someone would dislike it.

The shocking results, after the jump.

You’re an Xbot

This one is rather obvious. You love all things Xbox related and hate everything Sony related. That is unless the game is a timed exclusive. When it comes out you’ll scream with your fingers in your ears that your version is better.

You’re a Wiibot

There can’t possibly be any of these outside of Japan. If it happens to be the case, I feel so sorry for you and your low standards. I’m sure there’s a number you could call. Did I just make up Wiibot?

You have ADD

The cut scenes are a little too long for you. It’s just too hard to keep your attention on the screen when there are….would you check out that ceiling fan….oh, I hear a car….hey there’s a dog barking outside. What was I talking about?

You discriminate against Mustaches

You may have had a bad Mario experience, or were forced to watch Magnum P.I. in your younger years. Now you fear and distrust the ’stache. Snake rocks it like a porn star, so you automatically dislike the game. If this describes you, you should go to www.americanmustacheinstitute.org and stop the hate.

You have a fear of breasts

It’s no secret that the ladies of Metal Gear have no problem bearing the cleavage. During your game play when you met Naomi aka Dr. Cleavage, you probably shrieked and went to a corner and curled up in the fetal position. You are a girly man. Or a girl.

You’re a Gold Digger

If you seek out old men so you can have access their money, Snake is not the man for you. Although he has some traits that gold diggers would like, like he’ll die of old age at 40, is sterile, and is never home. The fact that he has no money, 3 pairs of clothes and a case of “old man ass,” all told, equals the ultimate deal breaker.

You’re a super Star Wars fanboy

If you are a member pf George Lucas’ cult, then you may have decided that the large metallic hunters known as Geckos are knock offs of Imperial Scout Walkers. If this is the case, you need to know that Lucas is not the end all be all of all things Sci Fi. Oh, and Episodes 1-3 were a mistake! MISTAKE!!!!

You’re a hippy

If you’re one of those peace loving, hemp sweater wearing, patchouli oil smelling weirdos, this is not you’re game. You guys should love this game as a salute to Snake for making it possible for you to have the freedom to smell as bad as you do. He’s fighting huge machines and old age, while you sit around a camp fire and sing your crappy songs. GET A JOB!

These are just a few of the reason’s why anyone would not like this game. I left off the obvious reasons such as: Nazis’, Communists, Pirates, Terrorists, and the Amish. Especially the Amish. Feel free to share your reasons for disliking MGS4 below."

I agree with there are too many cutscenes...I feel like I never get to play sometimes..Just constant sitting around...and I can't do it... I love the game otherwise..

I like the cutscene at the beginning of Act 2...you can switch the main screen, play with the Otacon robot, etc... I have no problem with the length of the cutscenes so far, or the frequency of them.

eh Id rather just play...I probably have ADD thought because I get bored with stuff like that very easily... It just seems to me like I am sitting and watching things then I am playing.

What a fuckwad. How many people don't like Halo? I'm pretty sure that is "one of the best games of all time." Everyone has their reasons.

Halo is "one of the greatest fanboi driven games of all time"...other than that, it's just a shallow console shooter that sucked even as a PC port.

As do I, funny how that works... :action-sm

Don't base the quality of a game on opinionated reviews, there is no perfect system in place because perception always plays a part in every review, there is no such thing as 100% biased-free reviews.

I really don't care why anyone else doesn't like it I just can't stand how slow moving it is. Graphics are unfucking believable, It's just the character movement is slow. And the only other issue I had is that Online multiplayer there are a bunch of fucktards that have no idea how to use a mic and the ones that do have nothing but inane bullshit coming out of them. I bought it for online play and the first week ruined this game for me. I'm bringing it to gamestop for a new anything.

I will probably never touch the online play...MGS was about the single player for me..The slow moving is how all MGS games have been because the game is about sneaking around and not running out shooting.. Like I said the onl;y problem I have is its a lot of watching and not playing...

I guess I just need to give it another go. I have to try to sneak around I guess.

Yep, I'm trying to go thru the game using just the anesthetic gun and the knife...but I also enjoy using the sniper rifle.

This series is all about sneaking, not brute force.

Honestly, how delusional are you to not be able to admit that halo has shifted an entire genre and has single-handedly brought online gaming on the map. Yes, I know that Everquest and other MMOs have been in place for a long time, but console gaming never got online like it was when Halo 2 went there and now every game has online in some fashion.


With that said, when I finish up Uncharted, I am picking up MGS4 and Rachet and Clank despite the fact that I have never been crazy about the MGS series.

I guess this one is me, since I feel like several hours is too long to invest in a not particularly well executed story if it was an actual motion picture, let alone a video game where I had hoped to do some actual playing.
That, and the fact that Kojima-san cant help but have his latent homosexuality bleed through into the story.
I'm not an MGS hater by any means though. I own every chapter in the story, dating back to the PS1 iteration. I like the game play, when it's present, not just: walk through door-watch cutscene, break neck/slit throat-watch cutscene, ect.
I actually waited for the MGS4 bundle to be released to buy my PS3. That was more about the phat deal I got though. $350 for a brand new 80 gigger + game. You cant not like that.

Online gaming was already a mainstay for PC gamers. It just took any console to go online with any mass appeal game to change the genre. The true delusion is you thinking that Halo was so spectacular. Huge sales doesn't equal greatness, just look at pop music. Microsoft pushed Halo heavily with their marketing department like it was the next Spears album.

Delusional, probably, but not a silly goose.

Some people don't like cutscenes, plus the gameplay is not run and gun....This is why this game is great...It's always been diff and one of a kind...every single one of these MGS games is the best game ever. I'm not even joking...1, 2, 3, and now 4...nothing is better.

I admit I liked the MG series from the first game on the original PS1. I have to admit that the Splinter Cell series blows any Metal gear away though.

the newest splinter cell thats coming out is going to be nuts if they can pull it off correctly. but mgs is easily the best game this year. i think the penalties for being detected in splinter cell are much more severe. its a shame syphon filter kinda fell off, the original on psx was pretty fun
