Metal Gear Solid 4 Review: The Legacy

The End Is Here

Everything in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots provides an extraordinary gameplay experience from storyline revolving around the themes of war and horror to the treacherous path of the battlefield. Most importantly though are the visuals which title MGS4 one of the best looking titles ever created on any system. The raw power pushes through the dual layered Blu-ray PS3 disc and renders graphics with sheer brilliance. Character models are extraordinarily rendered in real time, and transitions between cutscenes and gameplay are flawless and instinctive. Nothing seems tacked on; everything is what makes a hero’s journey unremarkable. While there are many more good things to mention, we won’t as always for the sake of you all there.

Legends are not born; they are made as can be witnessed by the full series of Metal Gear. Through an expansive battlefront, players will engage in the best stealth action to date and one that will always keep them in the shadows. Always lurking for the right moment to strike, and be known by anyone. To be known, by what history has asked of them: a savior.
