While the only videogame reviews thatreallymatter are the ones onDestructoid.com, when a game gets a perfect score in Japanese publicationFamitsu, people listen.
And that’s exactly whatMetal Gear Solid 4just accomplished: All four reviewers in the popular magazine gave the upcoming PlayStation 3 game a 10, bringing its overall score to a perfect 40. While the opinion of four people is not the final word on whether a game will be good or not, I have always been fascinated by the games that receive perfect scores inFamitsu.
Over the years, only seven other videogames have accomplished this feat:The Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time,Soulcalibur,Vagrant Story,The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker,Nintendogs,Final Fantasy XII, andSuper Smash Bros. Brawl. Although varied almost to the point of being random, I adore each and every one of these games. It is neat to know thatMetal Gear Solid 4(the first PS3 game!) will be joining this exclusive club.
The only bad news: This does not help with the agonizing wait until next week when the game finally hits store shelves.
