MGS4 is the first game in history(as far as i remembered) to get perfect scores from Famitsu, IGN, Gamespot & X play.......

Well, GTA4 is the first one to get all perfect scores if you exclude Famitsu.....but GOTY or not...both of the games had done the industry proud..
P.S. Is an equivalent for an Academy Award needed for the game industry???...

for other news X play also gave a 5/5 for the partly Malaysian made GRID...

Sorry to rain on your parade friend. Apparently Legend Of Zelda : Ocarina of Time got the honours earlier. Probably few other games before and after as well.

Gamespot - 10
IGN - 10
Famitsu 40
EGM - 10/10 - Platinum

That leaves out X-Play/Extended Play, which can easily be satisfied to give a perfect score, not sure if it existed yet back then.


Damn, me wishing for a PS3 now, even if only for this game.

I did know that Legend Of Zelda : Ocarina of Time  is the first one to get perfect scores from IGN, Gamespot & Famitsu....but MGS4 is still the first to achieve that, if you include X-Play....anyway LOZ:Oot is still a classic...

Supposedlly there will be a next installment....

But honestly I believe OoT is overrated. Maybe it's just me because I got to OoT after Majora's Mask and Wind Waker, which, IMO are far more polished.

1.3K for a PS3 is really tempting now, with MGS4 out. I'm considering discarding the idea for a Wii unless Ninty pulls out another Zelda game out of their hats this E3.

As for Kojima, I remember the guy said he was hesitant to work on an MGS game after the pressure working on MGS2:Sons of Liberty. In the end he still came out with two better MGS's after that. rolleyes.gif
