One of the Greatest Games of all time. July 5, 2008 3 out of 9 found this review helpful
1. Buy a PS3 (preferrably the 80GB so you have PS2 compatibility, unless you wanna fire up a trusty PS2)
2. Get Metal Gear Solid The Essential Collection (PS2)
3. Get MGS4. Regular version if you are new to this. LE if you are a fan.
4. Witness the PS3 being the best next gen console from here on out.
THE END.
Think inside the Box - Own the COMPLETE Metal Gear 4 experience. June 29, 2008 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
This review is solely on the extra items included in the Metal Gear 4: Guns of the Patriots Limited Edition.
This was released at GameStop stores. In addition to the Metal Gear 4 game, it contained the following extra materials:
- A limited edition box featuring artwork of Solid Snake and Liquid Ocelot. - One Blu-ray disc with the following audio tracks: 1.Old Snake 2.Love Theme 3.Gekko 4.BB Corps 5.Breakthrough 6.Endless Pain 7.White Blood 8.Midnight Shadow 9.Desperate Chase 10.Mobs Alive 11.Next-Gen Control 12.Guns of the Patriots 13.Sorrow 14.Father & Son 15.Metal Gear Saga 16.Here's to You
- A Second Blu-ray disc with the following featurettes:
(1) Hideo Kojima's Gene: a documentary on the man behind the Metal Gear games and the leader of the Metal Gear 4 development team.
(2) 20 Years of Metal Gear: a brief description of the progression of Metal Gear games from 1988 to 2008.
(a) Researching Modern Warfare: This shows the military training of the production team to produce more realistic game play. (b) The Road to Realism: A feature on the travels of Kojima's development team from Morocco to Africa and other locales, leaving no detail unnoticed. (c) Characters Come to Life: This section shows the motion capture, designs and creation of the game characters, from their Japanese and English counterparts. (d) The Sound and The Fury: This feature shows the challenges of foley artists to create accurate in-game sounds, from the crunch of gravel underfoot to missile explosions. (e) Kojima Productions Reaching Out: This section details the trips Kojima productions takes around the world to get in touch with Metal Gear fans far and near. (f) The Outsider on The Inside: This is a feature on an English-speaking jack-of-all-trades who took his love of video games and pursued a career in Japan. (g) Hello Logan: A feature on the company behind the in-game commercials
(3) A selection screen for all four of the in-game commercials:
(a) Bomb Shelter Buffet (b) The 7th Circle (c) Body of Armor (d) Celebrity Moralist
The featurettes can be watched with Japanese or English subtitles.
This is quite a nice package of extra materials. It used to be very difficult, if not impossible, to see the trials and tribulations of video game production in a Japanese setting - and it is a real treat to see the unsung heroes behind such an epic game.
Through these extra materials, we gain a deeper understand of Hideo Kojima's inner passion to deliver a video game that not only entertains, but gives players a chance to enrich their lives. It's clear that with over 200 people working for over 3 years on this game, it was a labor of love...and it shows.
My only complaint is that the music in this limited edition is more of a "greatest hits" selection. However, that can be overlooked, with the other extras. If you want the complete soundtrack, you can order it HERE.
If you're a Metal Gear nut like I am, this should already be in your library. If not, you're definitely missing out.
Very highly recommended.
