Many reviewers touch upon this already about the MGS series and it's "story".

Overall MGS4 did deserve PS3 GOTY. Really

IGN really liked Infamous :3

Infamous is awesome. Period. End of statement. I know a lot of times we at IGN get railed on for over-hyping games -- we tell you a game looks great during the preview period but then crap on it when review time comes -- but I'm willing to put my reputation on the line right now and tell you I can't see that happening with this game.

Infamous is a blast, and you're going to need to buy it come spring.

I've never had problems with the MGS story. I was able to understand it clearly, though I'll admit that the ending for MGS2 got me confused as hell.

GTAIV had a good story, but to me the ending felt rushed, no matter which ending you chose. I guess I also liked MGS4's story more.

I'm satisfied though that MGS4 winning GOTY.

PSXExtreme interviewed David Jaffe & Scott Campbell:

PSXE: Dave, after seeing a little of God of War III, do you regret in any way leaving; do you wish you could’ve been part of that project?

Jaffe: "Actually, here was my response to GoWIII- I had gone to Santa Monica studios and I saw the trailer they were going to show on the SpikeTV [Video Game Awards]. But they didn’t show it all; I was watching it on TV and I was like, "I don’t know if they’re going to dole this out over time, like break the trailer up into chunks throughout the night and we’ll eventually see the whole thing." But they didn’t do that. Anyway, when I saw that trailer, to me, it looked like a next-gen God of War. You know, I’m not blown away; I expect the level design and codes and stuff to be as good as it has always been, and yeah, it looks just like a next-gen God of War.

But they showed me this [other] sequence – that’s all I can say about it – and they must’ve put it together only two or three days prior to me showing up. And that’s the stuff that absolutely blew me away; it looked better than Gears 2; it looked like a Renaissance canvas-style painting come to life. Stunningly beautiful. I actually found myself getting nervous and sweaty and I was like, "why am I getting like this?" But it was because I was wondering, "how the fu** are we going to compete? The bar has just been raised again." Our game just doesn’t look that good and it never will, and there are reasons for that. But no, I don't say I want to be part of the project and I wish those guys the best."

Reviewers and critics didn't have much to say about the story, it was the presentation of Guns of the Patriots they didn't like. I don't recall any writing problems or holes in the story significant or not through all 4 MGS games, but perhaps it'd be easy for me to forget small stuff considering the scope of each game's story.

I have no idea why that is, maybe some people think the MGS4 Story is too complex and difficult, and in my opinion the GTA4 story is just boring.

Some people think the story of mgs4 was convuloted.

I thought the E3 build of infamous looked REALLY shoddy so thank god it's recieved a lot of polish since then, especially on the shadows and animations.

Give us a demo now Sucker Punch!

Does anyone have any idea what exactly the Divx update actually does?

After getting a certain update an option appears that says register Divx code but you have to make an activation Cd from the Divx website but I haven't so I have been wondering what Divx actually does on the PS3.

erictheking · 12-20-2008, 08:38 PM

That was update 2.5 I think. There was another DivX update around the beginning of the year which enabled DivX/XviD and WMV playback. With this newer update it was just about registering your PS3 with DivX or something, so you can rent/buy DivX content.

Hell On Earth · 12-21-2008, 02:04 AM

Is LBP worth the purchase?

Don't flatter it.

MGS 4's narrative is hardly difficult. Incredibly tedious and in need of editing, on the other hand.

And while I don't agree GTAIV's narrative wasn't always the most engaging, I can't see how you could consider two characters sitting at tables and talking for an hour at a time spewing superfluous exposition a la MGS 4 entertaining by comparison...

I just wrote what people think.
I dont agree with that.
I find the MGS Story awesome..
But GTA4 is more or less a bit boring for me.

Sephiroth · 12-21-2008, 05:45 AM

MGS4 deserves GOTY.

Byakuya · 12-21-2008, 05:48 AM

GTAIV was garbage.

Trunkten · 12-21-2008, 08:51 AM

On a different note, I've made up my mind to get hold of a PS3 after christmas, but having been out of the gaming loop for a couple of years now, I've little idea what is on the horizon in terms of games...

I want FFXIII, MGS4 and Gran Turismo 5, those three alone are enough for me to choose a PS3, but are there any decent RPGs coming out for the console any time soon, and are there any out?

Thanks in advance.

Sephiroth · 12-21-2008, 08:41 PM

White Knight is coming out for the PS3, it looks like it is going to be pretty good.

Byakuya · 12-22-2008, 07:45 AM

Only in Japan though.

So for now you'd have to import it..

I do try. I can assure you of that, but they just don't come. It's something I've always struggled with, fought in the vain hope that I might wrest myself from whatever mute demon has me in it's grasp. Still nothing. Well, that's not strictly true. Frustration, anger, depression; I suppose they could all be classed as 'somethings'. But no words. As they always do, words have failed me again. If I could tell you all I wanted to tell with a look, or a touch, or a thought, I would, but the reality is we all need words. So instead of talking to you, I take words and use them in the next best way; by writing them down. I can take my time, tell you what and how I feel, convey my frustrations and explain my anger. I love you. I always have loved you, and always will love you. - Anon -
