Accessories:
Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk: Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, is a next-gen experience complete with top-of-the-line graphics and surround sound designed for the Sony PlayStation 3. Featuring the most revealing display of Kojima Production's premier title, MSG4 details the world where Snake must under go his final mission. In a world overrun by private military companies (PMCs), wars are no longer fought over nations or ideologies. Instead, the wars of the future are micro-managed by overarching PMCs, right down to the bullet. New gadgets and abilities fuel Snake's journey deep into the enemy domains of the Middle East, South America, and beyond. New gear includes "Metal Gear Mk. II," the ultimate reconnaissance tool, and "Solid Eye," which gives Snake real-time information on enemies and his surroundings.
MGS4 is a next-generation adventure set in the aftermath of MGS2: Sons of Liberty. The concept behind the latest Metal Gear Solid project is "no place to hide," and this edition in the series will force Snake into unexpected circumstances with an all-new storyline that breaks away in some ways from the previous MGS franchise entries. We don't want to spoil it for you, but, producer Hideo Kojima did reveal some very juicy bits about the game and the storyline when it was first announced at E3 of 2006. "Until now," said Kojima, "we've released two entries of the MSX2 Metal Gear series, and three entries in the Metal Gear Solid series. Add to this Portable Ops, and you get a total of six titles. All mysteries will be cleared up in Metal Gear Solid 4." Kojima was very clear about the finality of MSG4, leaving gamers to wonder, "Will Snake die?!" When asked if the story will come to this sort of an end, Kojima responded without the slightest bit of vagueness, "It will come to an end." The MGS4 E3 trailer showed a number of characters from the Metal Gear and Metal Gear Solid histories. This final instalment is sure to deliver loads of cameos, in fact, it is rumoured that nearly all the characters from the series will make an appearance. In addition to a return of classic Metal Gear Solid characters, the gameplay systems from part three are also expected to make a comeback. The camouflage system from part three will make it into MGS4, with the addition of "OctoCamo," Snake's most advanced stealth suit to date. The name appears to be formed from the words "Octopus" and "camouflage," and players will be awestruck by the chameleon-like camo that changes with the surroundings. OctoCamo allows Snake to blend in with his environment as it digitally manifests nearby textures in real time. Think if it this way, if Snake is standing next to a wall worn out with holes, he too will appear to be riddled with holes. It has also been revealed that MGS4 will have online play, but no specifics have been released. Although very little information is known about the game's visuals, rumour has it that MGS4 is expected to be the finest representation of console graphics on the PS3, and it is expected that they will just get better and better as the game nears its release date. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Best MGS ever!The Good......... The way the story brings together most of the plots and characters from all three previous games. The narrative answers some of the questions from past games. My favourite part of the game was the return to shadow moses. This was a completely genius idea. All MGS fans remember charging through shadow moses in 1998 and despite the advances in MGS settings, nowhere feels like the home of MGS than shadow moses. It was brilliant going back and seeing how it had changed ...

How good an idea was it to put a virtual ipod on this to calm snakes nerves now thats some thought been put into this game every little detail is covered. The online games are good there are various game modes its ... Read More Rating: - Great Online and OfflineThis is a great game and one of the best games I have seen so far. The offline play(The full game) is a great sequel to all of the other games as it gives you all of the answers for the game that you have been waiting for and will surprise you with loads of twists and turns that you would never of expected. Also, they have online play which will probably revolutionise all other games. It allows you to create one character and then build up loads of skills and your own characters ... Read More Rating: - Ignore the nay-sayersFirst of all, to everyone saying this is more a movie than a game/the most boring movie they've ever watched etc. Do be quiet. You can skip the cut scenes so dry your little eyes, however you risk missing out huge segments of the story line but if it bores you so much then what have you got to lose? There are no words to describe just how engaging and breathtaking this game is. I mean wow, it's been a long time since a game has impressed me so. I had it for a couple of months but I was so busy ... Read More Rating: - It's a MasterpieceSimply. The most wonderful gaming experience everyone could have up to now... buy it, buy it, buy it, buy it, buy it... Peace. Browse for similar items by category:
