The editors didn't like
Excessive cutscenes makes it feel like a directors cut

Drebin fundamentally changes the core MGS experience
Metal Gear Online is hindered by a clunky interface and reliance on the PlayStation Network.
Storytelling is heavyhanded
The singleplayer experience ends.

Despite its intrusive storyline, Metal Gear Solid 4 is a varied, engaging and entertaining epic. It may diminish slightly towards the end of the game, but there could be no greater reward for the fans’ patience than this. 9.2/10Print this pageUser r...

Less emphasis on stealth
Just as stealth games aren’t for everyone, the relatively sedate pace of cinematic gaming may seem unappealing to many. If you prefer fast-paced action games that keep you on your toes, chances are you’ve not liked the Metal Gear Solid se...
