Ok I'm a big Metal Gear fan, I played the original when I was a youngster back when it came out and then bought every subsequent game after that and usually whatever console it was on (twin snakes ugh!). I liked pretty much each one (bar twin snakes). However I have to say the MGS 4 was a big dissapointment for the following reason :-

- no decent character intereaction through the codec screen - Rosemary played no real signifigant part in the game - lack of humorous easter eggs - small play time - Act 3 : follow some idiot (boring) - faceless bosses - Drebin character very cleche and unecessary and over the top boss backstories - Buying lots of weapons adds no real value to the game - Act 4 : very short - Act 5 : very short (wouldn't it be good if you got to explore or actually do something on the ship) - Cut scenes too long, what kind of games has a save option between cutscenes? - Nonsensical jibberish storyline (sorry fellas but if you're swallowing liquid/ocelot hypnotising himself to fullfil some kind of role you've lost touch with reality) - Was a movie more than a game.

Aside from all that there was some really good points like the boss battles and the control system and the graphics. Anyway that's about it please rebut.
