The game I have chosen to be this week’s Xbox Must Play is pretty easily recognised through a brief description. This first-person shooter has one mission objective: to see you dead. The enemy AI have an almost robotic accuracy with a rifle, and the ability to hear noises that would normally be missed if the enemies were Dumbo and an owl. But, not being content to lie back on the absolute certainty of its AI shooting you in the head, this title also goes down the sneaky, legal route: by supplying you with AI teammates so inept that you’ll finally crack; so that when you inevitably shoot them instead of your opponents, you’ll go to video-game prison.

The Metal Gear series, led by Kojima, pioneered the stealth genre, creating a masterclass in storytelling and gameplay.
No. But MGS5: Ground Zeroes might actually be one of the greatest Game Demo ever, if not the best.
I know a lot of people didn't, but I actually liked that story twist at the end. The game was fun and all, but I wouldn't call it a timeless classic.
A demo is free that was a $40 cry for help as later we would know konami did not want to fun hideo and his team anymore that is why we got the unfinished phantom pain.
Meh
Great stealth gameplay but the game was just average.
Bland open world that felt lifeless, the story felt shoehorned in, unfinished story etc. The whole thing was just average to me compared to the other main titled games.
I would have rather preferred it if they kept Ground Zeroes for the main game as the opening and the rest of the game turns into a Metal Gear 1 & 2 remake to bring things full circle.
If you dig around they had old behind trhe scenes of phantom pain vids and books wrote around the time.
Before funding was puled the main idea was to keep peace walker coop it was in the games early builds and that end game were your building your base that was suppose to be metal gear one.
You as the fake big boss was going to make your own metal gear one map aka your base (outer heaven) then me as sold snake use the mode that is in the game invade/defeat the base even fight your current version of metal gear that was in the game but not finished.
So your idea was on the table bit got canned.
Like hell it is. That was the first time I became aware of being sold an unfinished game and was blown away about blind fanboys saying it was some perfect game.
Yea, the first few chapters were great until they do that thing halfway and make you replay all the missions again. Then little things like capturing animals but only seeing a JPEG unlike 3 where everything was modeled out. Areas were massive, desolate, and boring to look at.
Game was a massive let down for me and the potential was so high for it. Honestly, this was one of the most disappointing games I ever played. What’s worse is it starts off brilliant. You literally play through until you get to the point where you could tell they just stopped developing and then quickly used glue and construction paper to “finish” it and then sold it. Quite frankly, that’s insulting to consumers and fans.
People have selective memory. This game had huge drama attached to it, what Konami did to Kojima and this game was horrible. Now they praise Konami cause they revived Silent Hill, even though SH looks half arsed too.
I dunno if they’re getting much praise after the Silent Hill 2 debacle. Makes me scared sh*tless for the MGS 3 Remake…
Yes and no. In many ways in was a great game; there's a very strong argument that it has the best gameplay of any MGS game, and that it is one of the more interesting open world "playgrounds" we have gotten, in terms of how the world operates. But as an MGS narrative, it is pretty far down the list, for many reasons.
17 years on from release and 5 years into a botting epidemic, Team Fortress 2 is on its knees, and it's high time Valve stepped in to fix it.
Ah yes, pc gaming aka the bastion of fairness and equity and everlasting online playerbase, all i can say is lmao
Not to mention that these tf2 idiots were the progenitor of mrx in gaming
Love it. My favorite online shooter. Had some great times with this game killing bots with friends.
too funny, but I'm actually playing this game right now. I've always loved the series and have the best of intentions of playing it when it first came out but it somehow got put on the back burner because of all of the other great title out then. Now, I'm just trying to beat it before Dark Souls hits as well as the other 10 titles that I'm dying to get in the next few months. I'd hate to put a game aside 3/4 of the way through it but I absolutely gotta play Dark Souls Day one.
I'd say that's a horrible choice when looking at R6V being a cheaper option.
Incredible game - though the frustration level sometimes hits critical ;) There are a lot of fantastic releases to choose from, but R6V2 will always be put back into that disc tray sooner or later :P
