Still working through it (haven't had that much time) and I completed some of Act 4 (up through the first boss) and absolutely love it. After Act 3, I was feeling a bit less positive about the game, but Act 4 has me gripped again. Beautifully handled and offers more gameplay than I had expected (based on what others had stated). It's still rather different than the first two acts, but it's enjoyable nonetheless.

It's true, and you'll hear an accusatory voice from the past haunting him when he does. I loved that touch.

Damn, Drebin is my second favorite character so far and I just finished act 2. The guy's voice acting is superb.

In the pre-credits timeline, it says that SIGINT forms ARPA. I derived that he is Donald Anderson, the DARPA chief.Oni Jazar said:
I read through the history and story in the guide last night. One thing I didn't notice while playing was
I really think there need to be two more games in the series to complete the storyline. This one and then one where
The give away that the corpse is not Big Boss because the eye patch is on the left eye

you play as Raiden, see how he gets all messed up, rescue Sunny, and searching for Big Boss for EVA

Does anyone know if the sequence (route taken) in the beginning of act 3 on Hard mode is the same on Extreme?

Amazing game, the depth, the story, amazing. The ending was a bit too
But that's personal preference, but an amazing game and HDW score is just amazing!!
"perfect", with everyone living happy ever after. I would of preferred at least one "good" main character to die and at least some kind of send off for Ocelot, he doesn't focus much in the story, his motivation, why he does it. Which is a shame as he has been one of the biggest characters in the MGS saga.

Harry Gregson Williams didn't compose the entire soundtrack, you know.
Well, I've gotten up to the final boss fight on the boss extreme. When I get off work later today I should be getting my big boss badge.
It's been one helluva trip. You can't really enjoy the game on this difficulty because it's so frustating at times. One thing is for sure though. I have the game down to a science now, thus any other difficulty will be a walk in the park after the shit I've gone through.
Parts of the game that had me ready to punch a hole in my wall:
Overall, playing mgs4 on the boss extreme is almost like playing an entirely different game. It's a lot more intense. But definetly a rewarding experience.

Parts of the game that had me ready to punch a hole in my wall:
the first fight with the frogs. It is much tougher and less forgiving on extreme.
The chase in act two. Frigging zombie soldiers throwing grenades and shit.
The motorcycle chase in act 3. I firmly believe that this part is impossible to complete on extreme without using auto-aim. My dog was scared cause this part had me cussing and punching my couch in frustration.
The vamp fight in act 4. Mother fucker needs to stand still. I also hated how there were times he was immune to attacka so even though I shot him in the face with a stun grenade he'd just keep coming.
The screaming mantis fight in act 5. If you're not constantly shooting the doll as soon as she stops moving then you're dead. Between her throwing knives, the soldiers and meryl it's just too much. I had a bit of frustration with this battle until I got the hang of it.

I'm attempting a completely "clean" playthrough on Solid Normal, and in every situation you've mentioned it's apparent it'll be a fucking bitch and half on The Boss Extreme. I'm considering not even going for the Big Boss emblem because of the sheer frustration.

Just finished the game. Everything including the last piece of gameplay was great.
After that... it got really, really, really lame. IMO this was no way to end a great series. It was too long, too crappy, too cheesy. It was even worse than Return of the King. They should've just ended with
.
Seriously, Kojima, if you want it to be a great combination of a game or a movie, make sure the movie part is fantastic, or better, end fantastic. This was crappy.

Snake beating Liquid Ocelot and then at the grave shooting his brains out, none of that wedding and big boss crap

That wouldn't make sense because it's at the start at thegame, at the grave that Otacon shows up.
From what I know
the grave next to the that of the Boss is Frank Jaeger

He is at frank's grave. It says Outer Heaven on the tombstone. Thats where the real solder died, obviously before he was turned into grey fox.

OK, no big deal if it's not some major plot point, but I wasn't being sarcastic. Did I miss something that should have clued me in whose grave that wasGamer @ Heart said:
(besides that it looks like a graveyard from MGS3, which could have been a coincidence)

You did a dangerous thing highlighting spoiler tags when your only on act 2. Enjoy the game and be more careful here!
