    I'm not sure if it was mentioned in the video but MGS4 was released prior to trophies / achievements being a thing on the PS3 and were added 4 years after MGS4 released.

    It's 48/50, ah, it hurt me too. Because I just finished the game where I had to collect the discs. And I missed the one and only one, by accident. The next game would be a speedrun. And in such a case, I have to play again, doing EVERYTHING again (sometimes the reward is a disc), and only the third playthrough will be speedrun and platinum. So it hurts me too, 48/50.

    The great thing about MGS4's Big Boss Emblem, is it is very lenient with saves. You can make it a whole lot easier by constantly saving. Iirc, you can't do that in MGS2. MGS2's Big Boss rank may be the hardest of all of them.

    Congrats, man. Even as a trophy hunter, Metal Gear Solid 4 was one of the games where I decided early on I wouldn't be going for the platinum. It just wasn't worth it in my eyes. For as great as the game is, I feel like trophies should be either an extension of what a game already expects of the player, or a means of encouraging exploration. Some of them are, but too many expect ridiculous, arbitrary nonsense that just pads out the trophy list. It felt like they didn't really know what to put when they patched the trophies into a later version, so they just made it needlessly difficult.

    Grindy games are always way worse than hard games anyways congrats Adam i would never could do this i think your next game should be a more relaxing one like Ratchet and clank 2016 or crash bandicoot 3 i dont know well edited video btw. The song at 26:00 is pashtun language and not arabic Afghanistan is in centraal and south asia not the middle east/west asia it would be more apropreiot with an arabic song

    Wow, this video was entertaining af. It didn’t feel like 50 minues. More than 10 to 15 minutes. But always premium quality. I felt your pain from my comfortable chair (while playing Immortals: Fenyx rising for the 2nd time because an end game trophy bugged). I have no connection to MGS in any shape o’ form (other than playing MSG V for a few hours and found out that it is not my cup of tea). But this Platinum journey was captivating from start to finish. I tip my hat and say: Congratulations, Adam. Well done, fellow trophy hunter!

    Great video!
    The greatest disappointment, possibly of my whole life is the save I had for Big Boss Extreme, I got to Ocelot. I was getting more and more frustrated with it, so I said "right, i'll comeback in a week and complete it, when it's not 3am.."
    In that week, my PS3 got the Yellow Light of Death, which also corrupted my HDD.
    As much as I love MGS4, I have at least 8 play throughs.. I just thought "yep.. not happening". So I tell myself "i've kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiind of completed it on extreme.. but not really.."

    Personally I've achieved the big boss ranking in this game. I wouldn't suggest playing on easy over and over is good practice for the boss extreme. Probably why the player had no idea how to navigate during the boss extreme play through. You gotta crawl on your stomach almost the entire time. They'll never hear or see you. The true challenge in the boss extreme is non lethally defeating bosses such as Raging Raven and The Sniper boss.
