I finally got around to picking up a PS3, mainly for reviewing games for this site but also because of the kick ass blu-ray player and the ability to review those as well. Anyhow, in my PS3 venture, Metal Gear Solid 4 came with the package.

Immediately after watching Blue Planet on blu-ray, I cracked open MGS4 and was rather disappointed to find I had to wait about 10 minutes for the game to install. However after the install I was astounded by all the amazing graphics and cut scenes.

The game opens with you in the back of a truck and with a handful of militia whom get ambushed. This was pretty self explanatory and the cinematic and brief gameplay are brilliantly done and definitely a showcasing piece for the PS3.

I have only played through the second act thus far but I can say with certainly I will come back and give a full review once I have. This game is great and has a bit more action than that of MGS3 which made me want to fall asleep or just crack my knuckles in impatience.
