Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots

After 3 years of anticipation and 6 months of pre-order, I picked up my copy of MGS4:GotP yesterday afternoon.

It. Is. Awesome.

No, that's not nearly a good enough word. In fact, mere words cannot express the sheer exhilaration I have gotten through playing for a couple hours last night. The graphics, the sounds, the music, the gameplay, the story, Johnny! The references to the MGS (the first of the series on the PlayStation). It's all simply awe-inspiring and worth the wait. I'm glad they continued to push back the release date. Releasing this game too early could have been devastating to the franchise. It is better to wait and work out the kinks. I'm glad they did.

I'll be pretty much useless for the next few days while I play and re-play this game 24 hours a day. I thought about calling in sick to work today, but... once again, that work ethic and morals thing get in the way. Blasted morals.

Anyway, back to work. I shall see you all in a few days. :D
