Overrated? How? How is it overrated? Does anyone even respect it at all?
Metal Gear Solid is a gaming experience like no other. The gameplay, the writing, everything is different at least. It has a few problems, but it's mostly very good.
Is the dialogue well written? I think it's better than most people give it credit for because their attention spans suck, but no, the dialogue is really too long and meandering. But that's why we love it, darn it!
There's really no criticism that an MGS fan doesn't have to say "well yes, but..." to. The dialogue sucks. Well yes, but it's really good too. The plot makes no sense. Well yes, but when you get to know it it's really compelling. Every game ends with a stupid shirtless fistfight with the pilot of a giant robot. Well yes, but it's a shirtless fistfight with the pilot of a giant robot and that's freakin' radical.
Yea I didn't really feel the love for Metal Gear Solid, but every one has their own gaming taste. Some of my favorite ps3 games to play: *Infamous 1 + 2 (the second is better) *BF3 (not exclusive) *The Uncharted series *Dragons Dogma (not exclusive) *Little Big planet 1 + 2 *Last of Us (comes out later this year but it will be awesome no doubt)
