"In just a couple of days, most of us will be playing Metal Gear Solid V (including 95% of the people who claim they've boycotted Konami). Chris felt that it was "equal parts tough and flashy, and it's fitting that if this is Kojima's last Metal Gear, he goes out on a high note."
Whether it's showcasing damage realistically or simulating fractures and conditions, these games are worth checking out.
The Metal Gear series has sold 60.2 million copies, as of September 2023.
Too bad it was a lazy release. They could've updated the visuals and everything. Missed opportunity.
...and yet, they couldn't give more respect and effort into the collection.
What a terrible company.
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is another rollercoaster of a game in the Metal Gear Solid series. Here's what to expect and why you need to experience it.
Yea I don’t get why they’re allowing old reviews to be posted here. Someone did one on Soul Reaver and I got so excited thinking there was some stealth release of an HD Remaster, but no… it’s just someone who had a slow day posted an old review…
I liked the game but for me it felt somehow like a military simulator rather than a proper MGS.. i got bored of that
The author was in a coma for 9 years and didn't get to play the game when it released.
Amazing how bad this game looks already. We keep acting like this gen doesn't feel like an update but I think we're starting to see it.
Looks better than Starfield, Cyberpunk and most recent games out. Still fine.
The gameplay was great. It was the tacked on open world and repetitive missions that messed the game up.
The game started really strong in that hospital, but after a couple of hours I wondered if it was even an mgs game I was playing.
The hospital section was the only bit that felt like a MGS game.
MGS4 was the ending for me. I totally ignore the fact 5 exists. It didn't need to exist tbh
Looks, plays, and feels better than all the previous MGS games, I consider them the greatest games of all time even though I know they aren't close to being perfect.
Perfection doesn't exist in a wide sense, each individual has their own set idea of the very notion, mine being MGS3 being the perfect game of all time says it all.
The "perfect game" is a myth.
Impossibru!
I'm just glad the game is good. I couldn't take another mediocre one play through experience again like most of the games this gen.
Then you have a less than perfect game, these games have never been perfect. They have delivered a great games , fun games , a game worth having and knowing they have done that game after game am okay with that. Besides like others have stated perfect is Myth .
