“Solid is back to his best…”
Konami have announced that their mega super uber amazing game, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, has become the PlayStation 3’s best selling exclusive game. During their annual report, Konami announced that the game has sold over 5,000,000 copies. We scored the game Console Monster’s first 100%, of which here’s a snippet from our review…
“Quite simply, I could ramble on about this game all day long. There’s just moments of absolute genius that make this game probably the best video game I’ve ever played – and I’ve played quite a few! Sure, the game has some rather long cut-scenes, has probably the longest ending I’ve ever seen, and requires a little bit of sitting around waiting for the game to be installed to your hard drive, but the sheer creative direction of this title make these otherwise annoying elements add to the games genius rather than hinder it. In all my years of writing about video games, I’ve never ever given a game a perfect score – in fact, I’ve never agreed with a perfect score, as I’ve felt that a game always has something it could work on. I just can’t see any reason not to give this game full marks. Congratulations Konami – Quite simply the greatest way to finish off an immense journey – with perfection.”
