Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots Discussion Thread


Recommended Posts

Is this the final installment of the MGS series?

Thats an interestin question! In one of the cutscences in the game it scrolls thru all the games of the series staring way bak on the likes of the SNES games then it scrolls right up and stops at MGS4 and below MGS4 there is two empty boxes that said "Under Construction" :s

Its not the last metal gear solid, its unclear as to wether its the last one Kojima will create because he said he wouldnt make another at the end of mgs1, 2 and 3. Its certainly the last Metal Gear with Snakes story though.

So, everyone, do you think that this may be the greatest game ever?

Not even close. But the series as a whole does rank pretty high on the list as ONE OF the best ever.

Just got through the game.

There is so much I want to say, but there is no word for the entire game other than EPIC! Top 3 games, ever made! And the ending, jawdropping

Now I want it so bad, I'm going cry in the corner. :cry:

Okay, what the hell - Wanted to start again, now the game is installing between chapters, AGAIN?!

That's pretty lame ...

By the way, a quick picture from the ending, do not look unless you want a pretty big spoiler;

Alright, this is gonna probably sound odd to some of you, but eh what the hey.

Would someone who has finished the game, and seen the ending mind either posting in spoiler tags! or PM'ing me how the story ends with Snake? I have no way of playing the game, nor can I afford getting a PS3 anytime soon, and I'm dying to know how it ends.

:(

Just finished the game a few hours ago and watched the blue disk included with the limited edition!

Well I'm going to post my opinions all in spoiler tags because I don't want to ruin any single bit of mgs to anyone!

The game is Epic! I can't find words to describe it any better. The atention to detail, the MGS kodac moments (not codec, I'm refering to things like the snake and the not so solid statue :p), the gameplay, the sound, the items, etc! I loved every bit of it, but I must say that the thing I truly loved is Act 4! I don't think I will ever find a game moment that will be as memorable as that (unless they do a remake of the first game with the original soundtrack). The ending was incredible, I think the voice of that cool guy that dies in the end should be played by David Hayter in a diferent tone, but I understand why they didn't do that. I've beaten the game as fast as I could, took me 16hrs, now I'm going to take my time to take a closer look to every little detail.

There is only a little problem for everyone that want's to have a play with a certain very special facecamo... the game must be beaten within 5 hrs, no alerts, no kills, no special items, no nothing in the hardest level... I don't believe that it is possible... I was hoping for a bit more of mgs 1, but I guess this is mgs4 :D

Audioboxer: if you want to talk to anyone about mgs4 you can PM me.

Oh by the way The MGS1 FaceCamo is freakin' awesome, you can just see all 5 pixels :rofl: Also the part where Snake dreams of Shadow Moses, you get to play a bit of MGS1, so awesome!

    • I and many others did not vote to get out of the E.u because of Putin or Farage, we did so for our own reasons. You don't have to tel me what my own did or did not do when it comes to the E.U. The EEC is or was the European Economic Community, a different beast to what the E.U is now.The EEC was a mainly about trading, the E.U have gone far beyond that and as I have said before, is now more of a United States of Europe. The U.K did not vote to join a United States of Europe. Anyway, they did not want us in there in the first place, Charles de Gaulle stopped us joining as he claimed we didn’t agree with the core ideas of integration. He was not wrong and that is why we voted out of the E.U when the time came. I was not old enough to vote the first time. My only regret is that we did not have the referendum years ago and got out years ago. If we rejoined, we would have to agree to join the Euro and no doubt Schengen, agree with freedom of movement, we have enough problem with people coming over here as it is. i have no problem with people coming over here if they work and don't try to push their way of life onto us. The E.U has a currency, freedom of movement, an anthem a flag, a parliament, well they are there, not sure if they do anything. Don't sound like something that is just for trading. Oh yeah, also wanted a euro Army. How many stupid rules have the E.U made that we had to follow? I doubt I will see the Uk rejoin the E.U, which suits me. Oh yeah, my partner is Polish, she came over here before Poland joined the E.U and she got fed up of people just coming over here with ease, while she had to struggle. She is now a British citizen and have been for a fair few years
    • Hello, Paul. Thanks for the editorial. It was interesting. I'm going research more into the app and its concept. Of course, if you know me at all, you know that I'd say your articles needs some editing! I a;ways do, don't I? For instance, the article occasionally mentions a concept before defining it, e.g., relays.
    • Screamer is 50% off on Steam, making it £24.99 here in the UK: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2814990/Screamer/ You might remember the series from the mid 90s / early 2000s, this new game is also by Milestone who created the older games.
    • U.S. partially reverses Anthropic AI ban for Mythos but keeps Fable 5 off the market by Karthik Mudaliar Anthropic says that the U.S. government has finally allowed it to restore Claude Mythos 5. But of course, there's a catch. The rollout is again for a limited set of U.S. organizations that operate and defend critical infrastructure. The company announced this in a post on X (formerly Twitter). This does not mean that Anthropic's latest frontier models are back to normal availability. Fable 5, which was a tuned version of Mythos 5 for public release, remains unavailable. Anthropic said that it is still working with the government to expand Mythos 5 access and make Fable 5 available again, but there's no timeline. Reports from Bloomberg and Reuters say that this decision actually came through a letter from the U.S. Commerce Department. According to Reuters, this would allow more than 100 companies and institutions access to Mythos 5. Reuters also reported that Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s letter removes the need for export licenses for approved companies’ non-US citizen employees, as well as Anthropic’s own non-US citizen employees, while restrictions remain for organizations outside the approved list. Anthropic isn't alone with this kind of controlled rollout. OpenAI's newest model family, GPT 5.6, was announced just yesterday, but isn't available for everyone yet. In its announcement, OpenAI also said that access to these models is initially limited to a select group of trusted partners and organizations, with broader access planned later this year. Both of these cases show that frontier AI launches are no longer just ordinary product releases and more like slow and vetted deployments shaped heavily by the U.S. government.
