If you haven"t played this game yet, you're doing yourself a disservice. It's like no metal gear before it. The cutscenes don't bother me one bit, the story is awesome.

MGS4 is the best game I have played this generation of consoles. I'll even go out and say I haven't played a game, well not a game, but a masterpiece like this in years...

Those are some really good numbers, good see the MGS fans are happy. Nice to get a game you have been waiting for. If I end up getting a ps3, this will be a game I would definitely get

I will be interesting to see what the actual breakout is, once some more detail is released.
