    The Unofficial Official MGS4 Thread (SPOYLURZ LOL!!)

    This thread is for the discussion of the game Metal Gear Solid 4 and it will contain spoilers. As per the rules, the spoilers will be in tags but this is fair warning:

    THIS TOPIC CONTAINS SPOILERS

    So if you get butthurt that I ruined your vidya gaym story then don't cry to me.

    Anyways, I want to bring up something major that has been getting "spoiled" but if anyone paid attention to the character roster from TGS06 it shouldn't be a surprise at all.



    Notice the guy second from the right. Yeah, *** SPOILERS ***
    Big Boss is still alive
    *** END SPOILERS ***
    .

    Images of the strategy guide were leaked and one page tells the story of how the patriots were formed which is honestly no big surprise if you played through portable ops. Some of the details are new, but for those that are interested (or just don't care) here's a summary:

    *** SPOILERS ***

    Major Zero formed the Patriots after the FOX unit went crazy in 1970

    The original members were Sigint, Paramedic, Ocelot, EVA, and eventually Naomi Hunter. They invited Snake, but after seeing the effects of the cold war he distanced himself from the rest of the world.

    Big Boss started the Zanzibar conflict in order to unite the world through the fear of war but was defeated by his clone Solid Snake.

    Major Zero establishes a network with the first computer and establishes the Patriots as a global dominator "behind the scenes."

    Big Boss takes control of one of these computers but is defeated by Snake again and presumably killed.

    Outraged, Ocelot breaks contact and leaves as does EVA.

    Gray Fox kills Paramedic as she applies the ninja armor to him. Naomi essentially takes the spot of EVA.

    The Shadow Moses incident was designed to teach Snake the truth about his heritage while subsequently destroying the Patriots. Both Ocelot and Liquid failed but every original member of the Patriots except Naomi and Zero are dead.

    Major Zero uploads his "memories" into a super computer effectively leaving his body behind. He assumes the identity of Campbel and creates the Tanker incident as a process to control the flow of worldwide information (but it was actually used as a way to collect data from the greatest living hero).

    MGS4 starts

      Alright I fixed the image.

      Anyways, I wouldn't be surprised if Kojima himself leaked the spoilers. He already established his hatred of rabid fans and hero worshippers in MGS2 and he claimed that MGS3 would be his last game. This is the first MGS game where it was co-written by someone else and I'd be pretty bitter if they grabbed me and said "Hey you have to do this game man COME ON."

              Yeah man, it says image has been moved or deleted. Maybe your browser cache'd it or something.

                Man, so it turns out MGS4's story is horribly predictable. I blame this on the fact that it was co-written by someone else rather than fully written by Kojima.

                    predictable?

                    I was constantly surprised, all the way up to the end.

                    I loved the game. great send-off to the series.

                      Admittedly, things get waaaaay better after act 2. The first two acts were basically reintroducing every character from the previous games. The pacing was off and it was too slow for me but once Act 3 kicks in everything gets infinitely better.

                        Act 4 just floored me. and Act 5... god DAMN.

                        Love this ****ing game. so much.

                        yes, there's a lot of cinemas, and they are long (none are 90 minutes though, thats bull****), but any fan of the series and character isnt going to mind, since the last thing we'd want to be is deprived of everything being completely tied up at the end.

                        I thought MGS3's emotional impact would never be outdone, but it definately was. I teared up a lot. my heart broke several times. this is easily the best gaming experience I have ever had.
