A review by Walid Matar
I'm over 26 hours into the game, so I feel like I can legitimately talk about it.

I've been playing GTA since GTA 2. The visuals and the physics in this game really shine. The story is the best of any GTA. There's not as much to do in the single player as San Andreas for example, but THERE'S MULTIPLAYER. This is the first GTA with MP.

I would recommend it to every PS3 owner looking for a fun open world game.

A review by Catarino Mata
I really love my PS3. I originally bought it to watch Blu-ray movies but once I started playing games on it I realized how great of a value it is. I haven't touched my xbox 360 in two weeks now. The only reason I still have it is for Gears of War 2. I really don't have one complaint about my PS3. If I could change one thing though, I would add the backwards compatibility feature. Not a critical function I need but I just miss playing the old ratchet and clank games. Hopefully, Sony will offer them on the PSN. It was a rough start for the PS3 but it seems like 2008 will be a great year for it and 2009 will be even better.

Works like it should, force feedback in PS1 and PS2 games as well. A bit heavier than the SixAxis, but for games that support force feedback this is the new weapon of choice.

Description: Amazon.comThe award-winning Gran Turismo franchise returns with its 5th installment, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, exclusively for PlayStation 3.

Developed By the Best<
>Polyphony Digital is the developer of the Gran Turismo franchise, led by creator Kazunori Yamauchi. Polyphony Digital is known for pushing the limits of the PlayStation hardware, and with its realistic graphics and physics, Gran Turismo 5: Prologueis no different. In addition to receiving CAD data from the auto manufacturers, they have taken thousands of photos to model each car (and track). As an example of the level of detail, a car in Gran Turismo 4 has the same number of polygons as a headlight in Gran Turismo 5: Prologue.

Polyphony works even closer with the automotive industry to make sure that the cars look and drive just as they do in real life. In fact, Kazunori Yamauchi designed the on-board computer for the real Nissan GT-R. If you're lucky to buy one when it releases, you will notice the Polyphony Digital logo when you start your car.

This is for people still deciding between the regular and special editions.
I have over 15 special edition games in my collection. I have never seen a special edition as elaborate as this. For an extra thirty you get a wide variety of quality bonuses.

First thing you will realize is that it is a large,heavy box. Slide off the cardboard box and inside is the safety deposit box. This box is sturdy and has a decent amount of room. I would not say use this thing as a safe, but it is nice to store things in. It come with two keys.

The art book is probably the nicest surprise in here. It contains some incredible production art for the game. It is a 30 page (or so) hardcover book. Not a pamphlet like I was expecting. The quality of this thing is amazing. For me it was worth the extra thirty alone.

The soundtrack was the reason I got the specialedition. I thought I would like a lot of the songs on there. I did enjoy most of them, but likely not all the songs will fit your tastes. Either way nice bonus. I would think they would release a more complete version down the line.

You also get a Rockstar logo keychain which is nice.

It also contains a duffel bag. It is a surprisingly good size. If you travel often you may be able to put this to good use. It is also good if you go to a gym often.

Of course you also get the game which is the most important thing of all.

If you feel burned by previous limited editions there is little to fear here. This is a great deal for collectors and grand theft auto lovers alike.

Description: Amazon.com Product DescriptionMetal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, is a next-gen experience complete with top-of-the-line graphics and surround sound designed for the Sony PlayStation 3. Featuring the most revealing display of Kojima Production's premier title, MSG4 details the world where Snake must under go his final mission. In a world overrun by private military companies (PMCs), wars are no longer fought over nations or ideologies. Instead, the wars of the future are micro-managed by overarching PMCs, right down to the bullet. New gadgets and abilities fuel Snake's journey deep into the enemy domains of the Middle East, South America, and beyond. New gear includes "Metal Gear Mk. II," the ultimate reconnaissance tool, and "Solid Eye," which gives Snake real-time information on enemies and his surroundings.

Joined by a familiar cast of characters, Snake must once again return to the battlefield to confront his lifelong rival, Liquid Ocelot, who is manipulating the world's wars from the oneworld where soldiers will always have a place. But Liquid Ocelot is not the only one who will be able to manipulate the world's wars--Snake can destabilize opposing forces by working behind the scenes, supporting the local militia as they fight PMCs, creating a smokescreen that allows Snake to move freely within the war-zone.

MGS4 is a next-generation adventure set in the aftermath of MGS2: Sons of Liberty. The concept behind the latest Metal Gear Solid project is "no place to hide," and this edition in the series will force Snake into unexpected circumstances with an all-new storyline that breaks away in some ways from the previous MGS franchise entries. We don't want to spoil it for you, but, producer Hideo Kojima did reveal some very juicy tidbits about the game and the storyline when it was first announced at E3 of 2006. "Until now," said Kojima, "we've released two entries of the MSX2 Metal Gear series, and three entries in the Metal Gear Solid series. Add to this Portable Ops, and you get a total of six titles. All mysteries will be cleared up in Metal Gear Solid 4."

Kojima was very clear about the finality of MSG4, leaving gamers to wonder, "Will Snake die?!" When asked if the story will come to this sort of an end, Kojima responded without the slightest bit of vagueness, "It will come to an end." The MGS4 E3 trailer showed a number of characters from the Metal Gear and Metal Gear Solid histories. This final installment is sure to deliver loads of cameos, in fact, it is rumored that nearly all the characters from the series will make an appearance.

In addition to a return of classic Metal Gear Solid characters, the gameplay systems from part three are also expected to make a comeback. The camouflage system from part three will make it into MGS4, with the addition of "OctoCamo," Snake's most advanced stealth suit to date. The name appears to be formed from the words "Octopus" and "camoflauge," and players will be awestruck by the chameleon-like camo that changes with the surroundings. OctoCamo allows Snake to blend in with his environment as it digitally manifests nearby textures in real time. Think if it this way, if Snake is standing next to a wall worn out with holes, he too will appear to be riddled with holes. It has also been revealed that MGS4 will have online play, but no specifics have been released. Although very little information is known about the game's visuals, rumor has it that MGS4 is expected to be the finest representation of console graphics on the PS3, and it is expected that they will just get better and better as the game nears its release date.

A review by Janet M. Bandur
I have been a fan of Metal Gear ever since i bought MGS2 last summer to see what was so great about it,and boy I loved it,I managed to complete it 100%,which means i complted the game on every difficulty(starting with Medium),i discovered every secret and easter eggs and overall finished the game 22 times.I bought MGS3:Snake Eater with some of my birthday money in November 2005 and i loved that game even more,so to complete my understanding of the story i bought The Twin Snakes for my GameCube,finshed that although it dissapointed me a little as teh cutscenes was overdone and the game was so short,but i manged to complete it 100% like the otehr two games.The conclusion was that MGS3 was teh best in the series yet,for me.
Now roll on Metal Gear Solid 4:Guns Of The Patriots(MGS4:GOTP) a PS3 game which is going to be the conclusion of teh series(or so they say).It is said that its release date is 7/7/07 seeing as thats Metal Gear`s 20th Annerversery.
MGS4 willbe set 6 years after the events of MGS2 and Solid Snake is yet again finding himself in combat against terrorist teams and METAL GEAR robots or more primarily the Patriots have set up a plan.
Solid Snake will be old in this game,but the game only takes place 6 years after MGS2,it is because Snake is a clone made out of 1970`s technology and is also infected with the FOXDIE virus which will give him pains and increased fear rate.He only has 6 months to live as told by Naomi Hunter.
I am not buying a PS3 just for this game,i want plenty of others-But when i do get my PS3 this will be a game i will definately get.
I have seen all MGS4 screenshots,seen all trailers and teasers and also have seen the Famitsu poster which features Snake,big Boss,Meryl,Vamp and Naomi Hunter,not to mention have read all teh info about it off interviews and Kojima`s Blogs.So i`ll keep up to date about the game.
So anyone who is buying a PS3 and likes stealth combat,all i can say is buy MGS4 when it comes out! Surely it will get good reviews such as 8`s and 9`s seeing as the rest of the series did.
Not to mention MGS4 is one of PS3`s highly anticipated games,you can`t go wrong with a successful series unless you are not a fan of the genre.
MGS4 WILL ROCK!

Ok this game like every one says looks good...but it gets old fast. You go to one city and back to your town, then to another city back to your town, to the last city back to yours. There is some neat stuff between and in the towns but it gets really OLD fast. over all though its a cool game. good story line and all but if you get tired of games fast I would stay away from it.
