An Analysis of two Metal Gear Solid Games

[7]

[SPOILER ALERT] [SPOILER ALERT] [SPOILER ALERT] [SPOILER ALERT]

When contemplating proper game design theory, one would find much to profit from pondering the examples set forth by game design giant, Hideo Kojima. He has no doubt had a huge impact on the world of gaming and is hailed as a veritable "genius." Even so, this man is not without his detractors and has been increasingly questioned, by many, to the point of suggesting that his genius has led to a kind of "game design madness"!

 
Luckily, there has been a recent comparison study on two of his former works: Metal Gear Solid and Metal Gear Solid 4. In an attempt to provide humanity with a framework of pertinent information regarding his "loose" game design directions, I submit a line graph, forged from the fires of reason and fact!



For further reading, I have compiled an excerpt of the evidence from this study. This comes in the form of facts and general observations of the two titles, with a side-by-side comparison to determine differences.
