Depends. It's close enough to be considered a MGS game, but different enough to make newcomers feel welcome and old hands interested.

I stopped playing MGS games after MGS for the PlayStation because they bored the shit out of me. 20 minutes of dialogue, 2 minutes of action, get lost because you have no idea what to fucking do, backtrack, accidentally figure out where to go, run into some ridiculously named "boss" character, 30 more minutes of dialogue, repeat ad infinitum.

MGS 4, however, is actually pretty good, although admittedly, I'm only a couple of hours in. The extensive dialogue is still there, but at least this go round it's pretty interesting and if it isn't you can skip it. The game play is pretty solid and, cinematically, it's a gorgeous game. Aside from the extensive string of shit jokes early on and the lame ass gekko, I like this game quite a bit.
