The cutscenes weren't that long. The problem was the frequency. You'd play for like 5 mins, then cutscene, then play for another 8-10 minutes, then cutscene, then you'll have a decent chunk of gameplay, then you'll be like "nice," then the same sh1t starts over again. Cutscene, 5 min gameplay, cutscene. My god that was annoying, especially since the story didnt make much sense to me. I really hate how they say something and explain it over and over again. Talk about redundancy.
"MS is stealing" Sony fanboys am teh supah-owned?
*rolls eyes*
Whatever dude. Rationalizing doesn't change anything. If half of a game is WATCHING cutscenes, what do you call that? It IS passive. It's not an insult. It's just the way MGS4 is. Nothing wrong with it. I don't know why fanboys are getting so pissed off. Obviously the formula works since it's selling so well. But the game is not for everyone. Get over it fanboys. Seriously.
Dude, BUBBLES! More people need to be like you. WHo care what cliffy says. They all want our money.
Can't fuking wait for this!
The camera is actually the same. It's just that in Ninja Gaiden II, the environmets are much bigger and enemies have a lot more space to move around. In Ninja Gaiden I, the camera was still crap, but the space was small so snapping the camera usually got everything you needed to see in view. In NG II, you are surrounded. No matter what you do, there will still be a sh1tload of enemies offscreen throwing penises and torsos at you.
Any Ninja Gaiden II player will tell you that some of the combos the basic enemies in NGII pull off are comparable to the stuff you see the main characters do in GOW or DMC. And that's just the enemies.
Yeah, dude that like is old. That worked on the original Ninja Gaiden XBOX. That's were that line came from. Ever since Ninja Gaiden Black, the FS isn't very effective anymore. In fact, above the normal mode in the series, spamming it is a good way to get killed.
OK Misfit, you are lying come on dude. I mean, to all the Ninja Gaiden Black players here on N4G. Do you REALLY think this guy beat Ninja Gaiden Black on Master Ninja WITHOUT DYING? Not just a chapter. THE ENTIRE GAME. ON MASTER NINJA. IN A COUPLE OF PLAY THROUGHS. LOL much?
I know some people have done it, but not this guy.
Dude, MGO is not MGS4. That's why it's called MGO and not MGS4O. The same way as The Orange Box has Team Fortress in it, but Half Life 2 is NOT Team Fortress. He was talking about MGS4, which IS passive entertainment. Almost exactly half the game is all cutscenes, and the actual game, while excellent, is over way too fast and I got bored by the cutscenes. The truth hurts. DEAL WITH IT fanboys.
MGS4 = Passive entertainment
The game took me about 17hrs to beat, and about 8 to 9 of those were cutscenes. That's HALF the freakin' game!
It IS passive entertainment, good or bad, whether you like it or not. It's not like cliffy said MGS4 sucks. He said it's passive entertainment and he doesn't do games like that. Why didn't people get pissed when Nintendo said they don't do western games and that's why the got Retro? Huh? Sony fanboys are so freakin insecure. They...
still sore about him "dissing" MGS4? lol?
Hmm, wasn't it bundled?
hehe "innovation" in the videogame industry. Sigh, if they make it look good, then why not.
Jealous of what? Gears sold more copies in the same time frame than this has. Cliffy makes action games where you SHOOT things and run for cover and fight stuff and blow stuff up all the time. OF COURSE he is going to think MGS4 is passive. It took me like 20 minutes to START playing the game once I put the disk in. You know what I'm talking about.
Yeah he just had the genius to make a game that basically became a cultural phenomenon, made him rich, sold a record breaking amount of copies in a short time span, and it's still being played to this day.
Seriously Sony fanboys, I know you think Cliffy was a little out of line, but you need to stfu and THINK first before you start posting sh1t.
Your average PS3 fanboy right here. Retarded 10yr old. Talks a lot, makes not sense.
I've played MGS4, and I'm sorry fanboys. I DIDN'T like it at all. It was a good game, but I just didn't like it. It's like semi-movie, semi-game. The plot was intriguing, but I couldn't understand anything. The game IS passive. I swear. It actually took me about 15-20 minutes to actually START playing the game. I don't own a PS3, but I'm at my cousin's for the holidays and that's ALL he plays on the PS3. I tried to get into it, but I got very bored. It DID feel passive a lot of times, especia...
I could also spin it this way:
The fact that MS is even seriously competing with Sony and beating it in some territories even though Sony has been in the console business much longer than MS and Sony has had a much larger fanbase advantage than MS and Sony has a brand loyalty effect is embarrassing for Sony....you see where I'm going with this?
Ugh juuken you sound like a person with a sad life. Look at your 7.4 comment. It's so..idk. Wow.
