Greene beat Metal Gear Solid 4 for me recently. Looking back at my Metal Gear Solid review, I think my critiques apply to this game and to the series as a whole: Kojima had lots of interesting gameplay ideas, a compelling plot, and intricate characters, but I don't think he's the best person to present them. I can understand why people love the series and simultaneously why they would hate it.

What would be best is if they remade the original two NES Metal Gears, but considering what happened with Kojima, that's doubtful.
