[quote]Re: This review is a new games journalism nightmare. by GreenwichJ 06/24/2008, 5:08 PM Some of the cut-scenes are crap, merely filling out the ludicrous plot with loads of bad dialogue. Others (the more action-y ones) are fantastic and on a par with Hollywood. What sets this game out are the graphics, which are astonishing: very high definition and completely glitch-free. And the gameplay, which is tense and highly varied throughout. One minute you're tracking someone through a sandbox-style city, and another you're piloting some huge robot. I wouldn't necessarily tell you to buy a PS3 for it though. The PS3 is obviously intended for older users; why have a Blu-ray player unless you can connect it to the family's "big TV"? No point if you're a teenager confined to his bedroom.[/quote] HOW DID HE KNOW? [quote]Re: This review is a new games journalism nightmare. by realsleep 06/24/2008, 9:40 PM I've considered buying a PS3 just for this game, so I understand where the reveiwer is coming from. The Metal Gear series is one of the best ever created, and those quirks and knowing winks to fans are what make it a great series.[/quote] HOW DID HE KNOW?

Also, the implication that I should not only buy a Playstation 3, but some surround sound setup, just for a "pretentious art house" game is pretty insulting. I'll save my money for a game with good writers, but thanks for trying to fool me, you apparently think any reader just has too much money and needs to find a way to spend a bunch of it before it goes bad like fruit.[/quote] Like this game or not, what do think would happen if the cultural gabfest podcast took on videogames just once. This game more than any other would be fodder for a longer discussion.[/quote] HOW DID HE KNOW?[/quote]
