Story:Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is the final canonical Metal Gear game to feature Solid Snake as the main character. The gameplay of the previous games have been kept along with some new features, such as the ability to roll on your back and also to hide in bins scattered around the environment. Most of the story and the relationship between the characters are explained through cut-scenes with a considerable length, so knowledge of the prior games is recommended to fully understand the story. The game also features a complex multiplayer mode entitled Metal Gear Online with some original missions based on the stealth aspects of the single-player games.Show more

I remembered playing this game when I was in grade school with my brother and father who have since passed away. This game brings back so many memories. Watching them play this game and eventually playing with them is apart of my earliest memories and is by far one of my fondest. I’d give anything to be a little kid playing with them again.

Metal Gear Solid 4 was a truly fantastic game. It's a huge deal when it ever ports to other platforms. This is easily one of the absolute greatest Metal Gear games ever made!!! This felt like the perfect conclusion to Solid Snake. They really went big with everything. Expect a long game even if you're skipping majority of the cut scenes. The cut scenes are all well made. Some even consider this more of a great movie than an game. In every possible way it's mind blowing awesomeness. So packed with content to keep you busy for hours. I really know if this were to be on GOG. People going to drop everything to buy it like no tomorrow. Metal Gear Solid 4 was among the last great Metal Gear games. It's a real shame because it was an PS3 exclusive. A lot of people missed out playing such a great game. Easily among the greatest stealth games ever made!!!

I loved to rexpirience that beautiful ending of the Metal Gear series. The music, the Boss Fights... everything was awesome. It's really a shame that the only way to experience it right now if you don't own a PS3 it's emulating it, which isn't perfect unfortunately.

The Metal Gear Solid Saga wouldn't feel completed and full on GOG without the addition of the Final Chapter and Definitive Experience of Solid Snake's ultimate mission as seen and playable in Guns of the Patriots.
A true experience that is not available outside PlayStation. Graphics and story hold up incredibly well, and the Kojima style is super present in this title. A true gem worth saving.

I beat MSG 1, 2, and 3 when I had the opportunity to play this one I had to sell my PS3. Who would've thought you wouldn't be able to play this game again unless you emulated it or had a PS3 copy lying around?

Great finale to the one of the best game seriess of all time. Unforgattable story, gameplay etc. . Dont let please this game gem let lost in the time a on old platform like playstaiton 3. i bet there is big audience who bought this game in 2025 but jsut praying for realese on modern devices
Metal Gear Solid 4 is the purest definition of a "Movie Game" to date, as Telltale games have attempted to be interactive cinematics, but Metal Gear Solid 4 has a distinct flare to its presentation, interactivity, and still manages to be a good game as well (in other words, even if you skip all the cutscenes, the game itself is still very fun and high quality). This technical, cinematic masterpiece has been trapped on Playstation 3 since it first released on it back in 2008, and with the Metal Gear Solid series making an exciting comeback recently, now is the best time to finally free Guns of The Patriots from its prison!

Originally intended to be the last Metal Gear Solid game and the end of Solid Snake's story. Bittersweet, a little forced but a lot of nostalgia. So many returning faces. Still won't beat Metal Gear Solid for pure fun, or the technical marvel that was Phantom Pain. And, honestly, I would have loved it more if Solid Snake got a classic happy ending too. Old Snake. Man, Hideo Kojima wanted to make it clear he did not want to continue this story.
i think this game its a great game because its the last mission of solid snake and its my favorite metal gear and if GOG add this game at the platform, many gamers can play this masterpiece, please set free this game from the PS3, we want this game, please!
