Rumor: Metal Gear Solid 4 Has 90-Minute Cutscenes

[x3sphere]

<strong>Update</strong>: Hilarious. We're going to have to file this under "rumor," for now at least. According to <a href="http://www.gamepro.com/news.cfm?article_id=187049" target="_blank">GamePro</a> magazine editor Sid Shuman, MGS4 does have cutscenes like the 45-minute one in Sons of Liberty, but nothing that approaches 90-minutes. Who to believe?

According to a CVG piece, Hideo Kojima's forthcoming PS3 epic Metal Gear Solid 4 will have numerous cutscenes that hit the 90 minute mark. Which to my knowledge, is unprecedented in a video game.

"MGS4's story is massive. The videogame equivalent of all three Godfather movies on one disc," says the site's sister UK-mag PSW.

Thankfully, you can pause or even skip the cutscenes if you'd like. But considering a key element of MGS4 is its deep story, I'm sure most of us will stay in for the long haul and watch them.

!!!! 90... minutes!

Okay. Now is this 90 minutes total with all of the cutscenes combined together, or is just just 1 cutscene that is 90 minutes long.

Okay. Now is this 90 minutes total with all of the cutscenes combined together, or is just just 1 cutscene that is 90 minutes long.

It has more than one cutscene that is 90 minutes long From the site:

"the latest instalment in Hideo Kojima's seminal stealth series, has cut-scenes (note the plural) that approach the 90 minutes mark."

I wish many games had longer cutscenes. The gameplay is only as good as the story.
