Interesting. But kinda redundant. The whole MGS universe is messed up nuff without you added this to its mix :P

BEASELY3138d ago

Personally, I feel 5 lacked these sort of larger than life, masterfully crafted GI Joe sandbox super bases. Lots of rural terrain and not enough building infiltration like in past games. Walking through mother asked and swinging around on railings, ascending a bunch of latters makes me miss them even more. I loved Ground Zeroes because it plopped you in the middle of a seemingly impossible basevand you slowly learned how to conquer it.

Not as many highly detailed, large outposts as I would have liked in 5.

TheColbertinator3138d ago

True. Even a few side ops featuring unique locations would have been great

SlightlyRetarted3138d ago

Open world games are just so lukewarm when it comes to level desing. Ridiculous amount of open world games right now makes it even more obvious.
I would rather have 30 well desinged levels, than huge sandboxes with over 40 main missions and 150 side ops that are so obvious filler content that it hurts. Mix of Camp Omega style bases and MGS4 style levels would have been great. Mission leading to Devil's House was great. It got suddenly narrow, fog set in, ambient music set in, then the Devil's House itself and the after math. Desing and atmosphere were absolutely amazing.

They should of added Ground Zeroes as the first chapter then the hospital the second chapter years later etc.

just_looken3138d ago

If you look up dev diaries they were going to do that originally then the idea came up they need a prolouge game.

Basically konami again test the waters pay for the mgs v production.

GZ sets the stage for TPP. Also explains why Boss has a shrapnel horn sticking out of his skull.
Both are awesome!

Now we'll have to see how much the Master Collection will add to those numbers.

Number1TailzFan188d ago

Too bad it was a lazy release. They could've updated the visuals and everything. Missed opportunity.

Stanjara188d ago

...and yet, they couldn't give more respect and effort into the collection.
What a terrible company.

Minute Man 721188d ago (Edited 188d ago )

Are they counting every game?

Edit: they did

Nyxus188d ago

Yes, these are total lifetime sales of the entire series.

ApocalypseShadow188d ago

.... mostly with the help of PlayStation.

Get that Sony tramp stamp while you're at it. No one asked

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…

Cacabunga204d ago

I liked the game but for me it felt somehow like a military simulator rather than a proper MGS.. i got bored of that

micdagoat19204d ago

I do wish they would remaster all the soul reavers

micdagoat19204d ago

it was done this morning though

goldwyncq204d ago

The author was in a coma for 9 years and didn't get to play the game when it released.

Chocoburger204d ago

This review arrived just in time for launch. Perfect timing!

RupeeHoarder204d ago

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.

YourMommySpoils204d ago

Looks better than Starfield, Cyberpunk and most recent games out. Still fine.

RupeeHoarder204d ago

It most certainly does not lol.

andy85204d ago

Have you player Cyberpunk since the first day? It's absolutely stunning now

One of the worst games ever made. Absolute overhyped trash!

Snowb420204d ago

The gameplay was great. It was the tacked on open world and repetitive missions that messed the game up.

Shane Kim204d ago

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.

KyRo203d ago

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
