Dude, the online is ****ing awesome. You haven't played it so you can't decide. Its more humorous and team oriented sort of like Team Fortress. If you ask people what games they got their PS3 for MGS4 is mentioned 1/2 the time if not 2/3. And its 3rd Person for MOVING not shooting. Just shows how much you know about the game. You ran around in 3rd Person but had to go into FP to shoot. If you look at PS3 vs 360 debates you see people say I'll get a PS3 when MGS4 comes out. Saying it'll say SOME is an understatement.
