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.","187839\u002Fmetal-gear-solid-4-guns-of-the-patriots-cover.jpg","187839\u002Fmetal-gear-solid-4-guns-of-the-patriots-header.jpg","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.youtube.com\u002Fwatch?v=RRDc68wpbIQ","2008-06-12",null,380,"metal-gear-solid-4-guns-of-the-patriots",[18,23],{"company":19,"developed":21,"published":22},{"name":20},"Konami",false,true,{"company":24,"developed":22,"published":21},{"name":25},"Kojima Productions",[27,28,29],"Shooter","Tactical","Adventure",[31],"PlayStation 3",[33,47,62,77,92,104,119],{"id":34,"author":35,"outlet":38,"summary":44,"review_url":45,"review_date":13,"original_score":43,"normalized_score":46},71513,{"id":36,"name":37},4983,"Jeff Haynes",{"id":39,"logo":40,"name":41,"website_url":42,"score_format":43},69,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FIGN-logo.jpg","IGN","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.ign.com\u002F","10","Is it possible to give a game an 11?  If so, this would be the game that would merit that score.  Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is a title that exceeds all of the hype that was attached to the title.  Regardless of whether you've seen every trailer and screenshot, read every preview and heard every interview, you won't get a full sense of how phenomenal this title is unless you sit down and experience it for yourself.\n\nLegends die hard and deserve a heroic story that lives on when they are gone.  Metal Gear Solid 4 is such an ending for the legendary warrior Solid Snake. Not only does it sum up the full franchise of Metal Gear, its depth and its complexity, coupled with its technical prowess, make it one of the best games of the year and, indeed, one of the best games ever made.  Get some well earned rest, Snake.  You've earned it.  We salute you.","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.ign.com\u002Farticles\u002F2008\u002F06\u002F12\u002Fmetal-gear-solid-4-guns-of-the-patriots-review",100,{"id":48,"author":49,"outlet":52,"summary":57,"review_url":58,"review_date":59,"original_score":60,"normalized_score":61},53230,{"id":50,"name":51},4408,"Tom Orry",{"id":53,"logo":54,"name":55,"website_url":56,"score_format":43},74,"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.criticdb.com\u002Fstorage\u002Fv1\u002Fobject\u002Fpublic\u002Favatars\u002FOutlets\u002FVideogamer-logo.jpg","Videogamer","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.videogamer.com\u002F","Metal Gear Solid 4 had a lot to live up to and it's done so brilliantly.
