RIP Solid Snake 1998-2008 June 13, 2008
I know that Solid Snake is a fictional video game character but I thought I'd pay my respects to him. Yes, it's true, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, is indeed, the last Metal Gear Solid game. I had a great run when it came to Metal Gear. Hopefully, Hideo Kojima is working on another great series. Snake kept me on the edge of my seat when it came to playing his character on my video game consoles. To be honest, it makes me sad to see him go. But, I still have the memories. Thanks Snake, you will always be one of my favorite video game heroes.
Thanks for reading.

Metal Gear Solid 4 Review June 13, 2008
WARNING!: There will be major spoilers in the Boss Fights section of the review. If you don't want to be spoiled the surprise or anything, please don't read that section.
Man, this was such a great game. This was one of the best games compared to Sons Of Liberty, Twin Snakes, and Snake Eater. Still, the other games have some things that are better than this one. Like for example, scenes that bring tears to your eyes, like when Sniper Wolf died, or great boss fights, like all these games had. Keep in mind, those are the only three Metal Gear Solid games I've played. Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, makes it four. Let's move onto what made Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, what it is.
- Graphics: The graphics were by far, the best I've seen in any Metal Gear Solid game. Everything was so realistic looking. The characters, the enviornmets, how all the soldiers, etc. acted. Everything just really impressed me. Man, I haven't been disappointed with the graphics in the slightest.
- Controls: The controls are a little different than Snake Eater so, it takes time getting used to how all the buttons function and what they control. Other than that, controlling your character isn't a pain at all. The controls were great.
- Story: The story, well, was really confusing but patched up a lot of questions. Most of the cut-scenes went into the details about why everything happened the way it was supposed to. I really enjoyed the story. But it kind of leaves a few questions unanswered. I think I'll go to the Gamespot forums for a little answer seeking.
- Boss Fights: This is probably the only thing in the whole game I hated. The boss fights weren't that fun. After you killed a boss, they would get up with the last strength they had and try and kill you. You shoot them once, they fall, rise up, shoot again, rise up, fire that last bullet, they scream. Talk a little more, then curl up into a fetal position and harden into a rock. Literally, their whole body except their face hardens into a rock. BTW, the other thing that bugged me was that all the bosses were women. Except for two of them. They included Ocelot and Vamp.

MGS 4-Day 3 June 13, 2008
Man, I just had a blast completing this game. I just beat it a few minutes ago. The last cut scene is over an hour long. Seriously, part of me wanted to watch the whole thing, part of me just wanted it to end. Not because it was bad or anything. It's just that I was really tired and I had shit to do. Well, I've had such a great time playing this. I hope you did too. Now, I'm off to do my MGS 3 Review. Trust me, it all won't be bad.
Thanks for reading.

MGS 4-Day 2 June 13, 2008
Remember when I stated in my other article yesterday that MGS disappointed me? Well, I've been playing all day and once you reach Act 2, that is when all the fun starts. Man, this game is getting better. I better take back all those things I've said about MGS Founder Hideo Kojima. This game is awesome. Man, it gets better and better. Trust me, Act 1 is boring and I would suggest skipping all the cut scenes cause there is nothing special in them at all. Well, maybe not all of them but a majority of the cut scenes were pretty pointless. Trust me, the game will indeed, get better once you are done with Act 1.
Thanks for reading.

Want To Play MGS 4 Online? Well, you're PSN ID Is Worthless! June 13, 2008
For those of you who don't know what the PSN ID is, it's the ID you use to sign in online to play games online. Well, Sony, believe it or not, says that your PSN ID is worthless when playing MGO (Metal Gear Online). You still need to sign in with it though. But, get ready, you don't need one more ID, you need two. That's right, you need two other IDs to play MGO. You need a KONAMI ID, which allows you to access their services and products and you need GAME ID, which is required to play MGO.
This just really pisses me off. I now need three IDs to play MGO? OK. I'll sign up but this is ridiculous! Why do I need three? In Japan, they were using these IDs for all their games. This is the first time these two other IDs have been made public to the United States.
Don't forget to get your pen and paper out and write down the other two passwords you need to play this game online.
Thanks for reading.
