The overhead camera of earlier games has been replaced by a streamlined view and over-the-shoulder camera for aiming a weapon, with an optional at the toggle of a button.A further addition to gameplay mechanics is the Psyche Meter. Psyche is decreased by non-lethal attacks and is influenced by battlefield psychology. Stressors (including temperature extremes, foul smells, and being hunted by the enemy) increase Snake's stress gauge, eventually depleting his Psyche. Adverse effects include difficulty in aiming, more frequent back pain and the possibility of Snake passing out upon receiving damage. Among the available methods of restoring Psyche are eating, drinking, smoking, and reading an adult magazine.Snake has a few gadgets to aid him in battle.

The OctoCamo suit mimics the appearance and texture of any surface in a similar fashion to an octopus, or a chameleon, decreasing the probability of Snake being noticed. Additionally, FaceCamo is made available to players after they defeat Laughing Octopus. FaceCamo can be worn by Solid Snake on his face and it can be set to either work in tandem with the Octocamo or instead mimic the face of other in-game characters. However, to get access to these unique FaceCamos, players have to complete certain in-game requirements first.

When the FaceCamo is worn with OctoCamo, under ideal conditions, Snake's stealth quotient can reach 100%. The Solid Eye device highlights items and enemies and can operate in a night vision and a binocular mode.

It also offers a baseline map, which indicates the location of nearby units. The latter function is also performed by the Threat Ring, a visualization of Snake's senses that deforms based on nearby unit proximity and relays them to the player.Metal Gear Mk.II (later replaced with Mk.III), a small support robot that always tags along with Snake, offers functionality and a means to the in-game menu for a large part of Snake's mission. It can be remotely controlled to stun enemies, provide reconnaissance and interact with the environment.

Its design is based on the namesake robot from, a game designed by Hideo Kojima. It is also controlled during the beginning of each separate 'Act', although the player is not able to utilize its capabilities during this time.Whenever the Drebin menu is available, weapons, attachments, and ammunition can be purchased via Drebin Points (DPs), awarded for on-site procurement of weapons already in the inventory and by initiating specific scripted events or destroying Unmanned Vehicles. The conversion rate between weapons and DPs depends on current battlefield conditions, with more-intense fighting yielding higher prices. Also, Drebin would purchase items from the player at a discounted price, especially at certain points in the story and certain days in real life.

The game may also be finished without killing anyone, using non-lethal weapons.The Virtual Range, similar to the training of previous titles, functions as a test facility for weapon performance and gameplay controls. Plot fictional chronology. 1964 –.

Snake travels to the Middle East, infiltrating a war zone occupied by Liquid's PMC Praying Mantis, where he meets Drebin 893, an underground arms dealer, who injects Snake with nanomachines that enable him to use the latest generation of weaponry.

When Snake reaches his target, Liquid transmits a signal that incapacitates the nearby members of Liquid's own nanomachine-equipped PMC, Meryl and her inspection unit, and Snake himself. As Snake collapses, he sees again for the first time since he infiltrated.Naomi explains via an encoded message that she is being forced to do research for Liquid in South America, and asks Snake to rescue her.

Snake locates Naomi, who explains that Liquid plans to use ' biometric data as a key to access and take sole command of the Patriots' firearms control system, the SOP. After a medical examination, Snake learns his accelerated aging is due to intentional genetic mutations made before his birth, shortening his natural lifespan. In addition, Naomi discovers the FOXDIE virus inside him will mutate within three months, indiscriminately spreading to the rest of the population.

Pieuvre Armement PMC soldiers kidnap Naomi, but with the help of Drebin and Raiden, Snake is able to retrieve her and they succeed in escaping the country, though Raiden is injured by a returning.Snake finds an Eastern Europe resistance group that has both the equipment needed to heal Raiden, and the living but comatose body of Big Boss. Once there, leading the resistance group under the alias 'Big Mama', reveals that she was the surrogate mother to Snake and Liquid Snake through the 'Les Enfants Terribles' cloning project. Liquid's Raven Sword PMC attacks Snake, Big Mama, and her decoy vehicles pretending to transport Big Boss. Snake helps Big Mama escape to the riverside, where Big Boss' body is hidden to be taken to safety by ship.

They arrive to find Liquid has already captured the body, thus obtaining Big Boss' biometric data. He reveals the next phase of his plan to seize the Patriots' entire control system by infiltrating their network using an AI core previously thought to be defunct, to act as a. US military forces attempt to arrest Liquid, but he disables their firearms and incapacitates them, leaving them vulnerable and helpless to be slaughtered by his elite troopers.

Vamp throws Big Boss' body into the burning wreckage of the resistance transport ship, leaving the side of Snake's face severely burned after he saves Big Mama from jumping in after it. Liquid escapes with Naomi as collateral, but Otacon's remote mobile robot sneaks onto Liquid's boat after them. Big Mama dies from her injuries.Through footage recorded by the robot, Snake and Otacon learn of Liquid's intention to destroy the Patriots' master AI with a nuclear strike using 's, allowing the Trojan AI under his control to ascend to highest authority.

To facilitate his plan, Liquid needs a non-ID-tagged nuclear warhead, which is to be recovered from the Shadow Moses facility in Alaska. Snake infiltrates Shadow Moses Island and reaches REX's hangar, only to be ambushed by Vamp, who has Naomi with him. Raiden and Vamp duel again and Vamp is killed. Naomi reveals that she has terminal cancer and, overcome with guilt over her mistakes, disables the nanomachines holding off the effects of the cancer and dies.

Snake and Raiden use REX to escape the hangar, where they encounter and battle. Liquid reveals Outer Haven, a modified version of, ready to fulfill his launch plan.

Raiden is nearly killed defending Snake. The, captained by, arrives and begins firing on Haven, causing it to retreat.Seizing the moment it surfaces to launch the nuke, Snake, Meryl, and Johnny board the ship via catapults. When Snake arrives at the core, he uses Otacon's robot to install a computer virus coded by Naomi and Sunny into Liquid's Trojan AI that destroys not only the core AI but the entire Patriot AI network controlling global affairs as well, while leaving the bare necessities for modern civilization to survive.

The destruction of the Patriots brings the war economy to a halt and foils their plan to impose SOP onto civilian populations worldwide. After passing out in the core room, Snake awakens atop Outer Haven's tower to find Liquid. Liquid explains that he allowed the virus to be installed, knowing it would achieve his goal of destroying the Patriots. Liquid says he 'still has a score to settle' with Snake and the two engage in a final fistfight, with Snake emerging victorious. Liquid becomes Revolver Ocelot once again before dying.In the aftermath of the battle, Meryl reconciles with Campbell, her real father, and marries Johnny. At the wedding, Drebin reveals his origin as a child soldier as well as his role in Patriots' schemes.

He also reveals that Meryl's unit had been an unwitting pawn used by the Patriots, but that they and Drebin were now free. Otacon decides to raise Sunny to allow her to live a normal childhood.

Raiden reconciles with Rose after learning that their child was not miscarried, and that her marriage to Campbell was a ruse to protect them from the Patriots. Snake, meanwhile, visits the grave of Big Boss at a cemetery. With nothing left to fight for, and to prevent a global epidemic from his mutant FOXDIE strain, Snake attempts suicide.In a post-credits scene, Snake is surprised when Big Boss, very much alive, arrives at the cemetery with a vegetative in a wheelchair. Big Boss explains that the body burned in Eastern Europe was actually, and reveals that the Patriots were founded by Major Zero, EVA, Ocelot, and Big Boss himself.

Their goal was to realize the will of, a hero and Big Boss' mentor. While their power increased, differing interpretations split the group into two rival factions - Zero's, which stood for complete government control of society to prevent conflict; and Big Boss's, which yearned for a world where soldiers fought solely for what they believed in and not politicians or governments. Zero captured Big Boss, placed him in an, and entrusted control to networks which lead to the war economy, a vision far from The Boss's will. Ocelot and EVA then devised a plan to destroy the Patriots and bring Big Boss back to life. The 'possession' of Ocelot through Liquid's right arm was a ruse to draw attention away from Snake. Big Boss kills Zero by turning off his life support, and informs Snake that the nanomachines Drebin injected into him came with a new strain of FOXDIE, engineered by the Patriot AIs to eradicate the old strains and to kill Big Boss's rival Patriot faction, and were therefore the true cause of EVA and Ocelot's deaths. With the new strain destroying the mutated strain, Snake poses no risk of becoming a biological weapon, so long as he does not live long enough for the new strain to mutate.

However, Snake's very presence would kill Big Boss. Big Boss dies beside the Boss's grave. Snake quits smoking and decides to live the short time he has left peacefully with Otacon and Sunny, vowing to live long enough to see what the future holds for the world he has helped create.Development. From the left to right: Kenichiro Imaizumi (producer), Yumi Kikuchi (Raging Raven character of The Beauty and the Beast Unit, voice and motion capture actress), (producer, director, writer) at the 2007.Metal Gear Solid 4 started development due to fan demand. Series creator Hideo Kojima had previously directed the prequel which was meant to end the series. However, people's demand to have a sequel to and clear the mysteries Kojima wanted to leave to the players' interpretations resulted in the making of Metal Gear Solid 4.

Kojima announced that he would be retiring as director of the Metal Gear series after, and would leave his position open to another person for Metal Gear Solid 4. As a joke, the new director was announced as ', but in R, a 400-page book bundled with Metal Gear Solid 3 's Japanese 'Premium Package', the director was revealed to be Shuyo Murata, co-writer of MGS3 and director of. He also contributed to Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. However, it was announced that Kojima would be co-directing the game with Murata after substantial negative fan reaction, including.Hideo Kojima wished to implement a new style of gameplay which was set in a full-scale war zone. Kojima wanted to also retain the stealth elements from previous entries in the series, which made the team abandon the original 'No Place to Hide' concept.

The only announced war zone before release was the Middle East. Using several locations emphasized Kojima's original intention to present the world in full-scale armed conflict. Solid Snake was physically aged to portray to the player the games' overarching theme, 'SENSE', and to assign them to a character whose task was to pass moral values to future generations.

Kojima's initial ending for the MGS4 would entail Snake and Otacon turning themselves in for breaking the law, and subsequently convicted and executed. This was avoided after negative feedback from the development team. Snake's experience across the series made the creation of new enemies challenging and encouraged staff to create groups of non-human enemies to rival Snake.During development, the game's exclusivity was continuously questioned, even after Kojima officially confirmed the exclusivity several times.

The exclusivity of the game was still in doubt from non-PlayStation 3 owners for a long period after the initial release, with the company confirming that the 25th Anniversary edition of the game released in late 2012 was still a PS3 exclusive. Upon the release of, Kojima had once again firmly denied chances of MGS4 's release on any other console, stating that an 'Xbox 360 version will not be released, because an Xbox 360 version of MGS4 hasn't gone on sale.'

And that 'the amount of data in MGS4 is just too enormous'.The game was publicly announced first at, by means of a humorous and slightly abstract gag using characters from Metal Gear Solid 3, under the slogan of 'No Place to Hide'. The title was described as 'essentially finished' by January 2008 and went through extensive.

In an interview with, Norihiko Hibino stated that the company had difficulties with 'Russian composers who said we stole their music', referring to an occasion when a group of Russian games journalists presented Hideo Kojima with a composition by and claimed this had been plagiarised to create the theme.

Hibino states that 'they didn't actually', however, the company was 'too sensitive about the situation' and elected to drop the theme.The official soundtrack was released on May 28, 2008, by Konami Digital Entertainment under the catalog number GFCA-98/9. It consists of two discs of music and 47 tracks. A soundtrack album was also packaged with Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots Limited Edition. Trophy support In August 2009, when asked if there would be a patch to add to the game, Kojima Productions' Sean Eyestone asked people to 'stay patient'.

In November 2010, an updated Greatest Hits box art of the game was released, which in the top right-hand corner boasted the addition of 'Trophies' to the game.

The first review was a 10/10 from (UK), commenting ' MGS4 shifts gears constantly, innovating again and again'. The game has been awarded 10/10 from Game Informer and a 5/5 in all categories (graphics, control, sound, and fun factor) from GamePro. Japanese magazine (40/40).

The game received a 9.9/10 from, a 9.5/10 from IGN Australia, and a 10/10 from IGN. IGN was quoted in a video review, saying MGS4 is 'one of the best games ever made'. And both gave the game 8/10. Gave it a 10/10 saying ' Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots is the most technically stunning video game ever made', making MGS4 one of only five games ever to receive a perfect '10' from both IGN and GameSpot, and the sixth of only nine games to receive a perfect ten from GameSpot overall.IGN also included the game at #59 in its list of Top 100 Games of a Generation.Reviewers acclaimed the manner in which the title concludes the series.

Stated that 'You could not ask for a funnier, cleverer, more ambitious or inspired or over-the-top conclusion', and IGN found that the result 'refines the MGS formula and introduces just enough new (or respectfully influenced) ideas to ensure that it stands on its own as a game'. Edge concluded that 'it is faithful to its fans, its premise and its heart, delivering an experience that is, in so many ways, without equal', while IGN UK described it simply as 'the ultimate Metal Gear game' and 'a dazzling, heart-lifting, voyage of discovery'.The game was also described as being very sad and depressing for a video game, with the main character dealing with death, depression, and self-carelessness. Kotaku said, ' Metal Gear Solid 4 is so unusual in that it's the rare game that asks them to be interested in something else: a march toward defeat, an interactive tragedy.' The new control scheme ('the ideal balance of intuitiveness and range'), camouflage system and shift to more free-form, 'replayable' gameplay (in particular the Drebin Points system and alternatives to 'stealthy' play) were particularly highly praised with a few minor annoyances.

The variety of set-piece events, details such as the 'psyche' meter, and healthy provision of secrets were also remarked upon. Eurogamer tempered their overall praise with concern that one of the chapters may induce 'ennui', but noted that the game quickly recovered, while Edge expressed mild disappointment that the 'Beauty and the Beast' unit compare poorly to the previous title's main foes, the 'Cobra Unit'.The game was also lauded for its technological and artistic achievements, with Edge describing the 'Otacon' character as 'the real star', and 'a gaming revolution' while they found the game's score to be superior to that of many Hollywood offerings.

The magazine felt that the few visual shortfalls (such as texture detail) did nothing to detract from the game's overall quality. IGN UK commented that the attention to detail in both visuals and audio represented 'sublime brilliance', and remarked upon innovations such as the use of split-screen.Criticism of the game was largely leveled at the storyline, which reviewers found at times to be confusing or poorly executed and with IGN UK advising players to revisit the earlier titles for clarity. However, the overall result was praised as emotionally engaging and topical, and characters such as Liquid Ocelot were singled out for the quality of their depiction. It was generally conceded that although the use of were more intrusive than they needed to be (comprising 'about half of the content of the game' by one estimate, and which 'might make you crave action, or wonder why they couldn't have been turned into interactive sequences'), the style was somewhat appropriate given the rest of the series ('in many ways it's a vindication of Kojima's unique interpretation of the videogame medium' ) and unlikely to trouble fans. The addition of a pause function for these story sequences was universally welcomed.Edge and Eurogamer alike concluded that although the game represents an of the series style, it ultimately fails to revitalize it, and would not win over new fans. IGN UK was concerned that the game's and widespread praise may lead to disappointment, but felt that the game was a 'masterpiece'.

He also listed the length of install times, noting that the restrictions were intended to prevent spoilers regarding what occurs during the installations.Following this statement, gaming site published a blog entry in which it claims it will be unable to review the game either, claiming Konami have withheld review code because of non-compliance with the limitations. The article originally implied that the absence of a review was due to GameSpot's refusal to attend the 'Boot Camp' event at Kojima Productions' offices.

However, it has revised it to state that the Boot Camp was a mid-development feedback and PR exercise, and would not have led to a review in any case.The day before Konami's restrictions were to be lifted, ( EGM) reviewer Jeremy Parish clarified the reasons for the self-imposed review embargo, dispelling rumors of a disagreement between Konami and EGM on the review conditions in a lengthy blog commentary. His review of the game appeared on the website shortly after. References Notes. Retrieved 2008-02-28. (PDF). Archived from (PDF) on 2008-05-30.

Once the 20 stages of the game have been completed, players have access to a new “Survival Mode” that lets them play the whole thing again, with the facility to skip the story images and ignore the life gauge. If that doesn’t seem too much of a bonus (and we don’t blame you), you also get access to more than 30 different wallpapers that can be “bought” for Drebin Points acquired at the end of each stage. These wallpapers include previously-unreleased Yoji Shinkawa character illustrations.Anyone already with the initial Metal Gear Solid Touch game on their handset can now upgrade to this new version for free.

If you didn’t leap when you had the chance, the game is now available for purchase; a free “lite” taster version will be released soon.Press Release:KONAMI LAUNCHES FULL VERSION OF METAL GEAR SOLID TOUCH ON APPLE iPHONE AND iPOD TOUCHPopular App Expanded to Include New Levels and Intuitive Touch Shooting ControlsEL SEGUNDO, Calif. – April 23, 2009 – Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc. Announced today that the full version of METAL GEAR SOLID TOUCH has launched on the Apple App Store. Set in the immersive world of METAL GEAR SOLID 4: GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS and created with the concept of allowing players to “touch” upon the world of METAL GEAR SOLID, the highly anticipated full version of the game introduces eight additional gameplay levels to the iPhone and iPod touch.Developed by Kojima Productions and designed specifically for the iPhone and iPod touch, METAL GEAR SOLID TOUCH unfolds in five chapters over a span of the 20 stages with familiar enemies attempting to keep Old Snake from accomplishing his mission. The characters featured in the latter eight stages of the story will feature new abilities, putting them in a class of their own. Powerful enemies, such as the remainder of the “B&B Corps” and the dreaded Gekko, along with unique gameplay mechanisms such as piloting Metal Gear REX in battle, will have players facing multiple challenges that can’t be overcome by mere “tapping.” The variety of new elements will test strategy and insight more than ever before.Taking advantage of the iPhone’s capabilities, players can shake their iPhone during Mantis Boss Battle to attack. Once all 20 stages have been cleared, a Survival Mode is unlocked, which lets players skip the story images and play stages consecutively without replenishing their life gauge.As an added bonus, players will have access to over 30 original wallpapers that are available from Drebin’s Shop.

Drebin Points are awarded according to the score at the end of each stage. The wallpapers feature a variety of artwork that include unreleased illustrations by METAL GEAR SOLID character designer, Yoji Shinkawa, gorgeous 3D CG, as well as images that were designed using METAL GEAR SOLID as a motif.Players who have already installed the initial release of METAL GEAR SOLID TOUCH can update to the complete version for free. For those who have yet to purchase the game, the complete version is available for purchase from the Apple App Store on iPhone and iPod touch or at www.itunes.com/appstore/. For players who just want a “touch” of METAL GEAR SOLID, Konami will soon be releasing METAL GEAR SOLID TOUCH Lite, a free version that players can use to sample the game.
