    Interesting. I'm playing this now, so I'm going to have to pay a bit more attention going forward. I never knew it was that deep...

    Okay... I think I get it now... but Snake...Boss...GAAAAAAH!! (Head Explodes). Dammit! Now I've gotta repaint

    @movezig I don't know if you regularly read here or not, but the amount of hate GamesRadar has been getting is unnecessary in general, so you don't need to make it more so by pointing out tiny, flawed tidbits. *sigh*

    Hopefully this will clear up the confusion people still have with MGS4 and the series in general. It's not that hard to understand if you look at it from a distance. Great job of explaining it though GR!

    SPOILERS!!! shouldnt bioshock and other games be up there? becuase theres certian things like: is the main characters ryan of fontaines son? how did u grow up on your own? and if u even did? and another one is dead rising? WHY IS FRANK SCREAMING ON THE TANK!?!?! and i heard that in the second one the whole of americas been infected with the zombie gene? could this be due to the zombie-orphan children or the part when u have to collect carlitos bombs? downpart about that is could there be a different main character???....

    GR kicks all ass, if i want a game/platform update i go Here, if i want a review i go Here, because, God knows Hows Gr did this, but their Reviews are pretty damn Unbiased compared to other Game Reviews out their, paid by their product to a put a good word out, Gr kicks ass, and even kicking ass kicks ass...so ya...Games Radar Kicks Ass!

    The only part of the MGS4 ending I don't understand is why Old Snake and Big Boss don't look identical anymore yet they did when they were younger. Can anyone explain that for me?

  • Baconator96 - February 19, 2009 6:41 a.m.

    i do hope that they dont abandon Altair. Hes the only reason people loved that game.

  • punkmetalmage - February 19, 2009 6:11 a.m.

    The Manhattan Project took place in New Mexico, not New York.

    MGS 4 was awsome but reading that articul actually made me more confused i dont even know how too. o well the game was super fun that is all that counts to me

  • FierceDeity - February 19, 2009 1:03 a.m.

    also explain the zelda games and i'll be super impressed

  • DoctorCrazy - February 19, 2009 12:47 a.m.

    Wow, it all makes sense to me now. Looks like my mission on Earth is complete. Beam me up.

  • FierceDeity - February 19, 2009 12:43 a.m.

    thanks for clearing up braid

    I'm pretty sure Jonathan Blow has come out and said that it's more complicated than just the A-Bomb. From what I remember the princess represents three things, his mom, his girlfriend and the A-bomb.

    Crap i just realized someone at gr told why they used it.Sorry.
