Haven't played it in a while, but my opinions about it basically changed with every replay.
And I did in fact replay it. So, it wasn't that bad, though it may have included skipping a lot of cutscenes.
The gameplay was stellar when it actually happened. I liked some chapters a lot more than most people, it seems. Chapter 3 has awful lore-dumps, a very awkward driving section and the boss fight was meh. But the actual sneaking and shadowing was really cool. People seemed to hate this part, too, but it's one of the most pure stealth sections of the whole game.
Chapter 4 (Shadow Moses) was pure nostalgia-bait - in a good way. Finding the SOCOM, equipping it and pulling it out, Snake muttering these words. Great job, Kojima. Also, sneaking past these robots was a good change of pace.
MGS4 overall has some really high heights but also some terrible lows. And the cutscene to gameplay ratio is awful. That really holds it back. Though, I also have a soft-spot for Old Snake.
