    It's a short but good game, after the story has missions that are not bad but you can tell it's a "demo" ...

    Same game mechanics as MGSV Phantom Pain however basically a very short demo version of the game.

    Metal Gear V: Ground Zeroes, no vale la pena por si solo, demasiado corto, creo que el juego lo puedes terminar en 1 hora, para nada rejugable, creo que Konami hizo muy mal en vender esto, pudo ver sido una demo tecnica o beta abierta, cerrada, pero no venderlo por $40.00.

    No es mal juego, el problema es que es practicamente una demo de pago.... Lo he jugado y me lo he pasado en poco tiempo, el juego esta bien, pero se merece solo un 5 por la escasez de contenido...

    While lacking content, the near-perfect stealth gameplay makes this demo a game I've played more than entire full games.

    Un ´juego´ que deja mucho a deber por el simple hecho de quitar el prologo de The Phantom Pain y vendertelo por separado, pero jugablemente nos introduce las mecanicas de uno de los mejores juegos de infiltracion de la historia y tiene la mejor intro de cualquier MGS.
    Como demo funciona, pero como juego individual que es como lo quiso vender Konami, apesta.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There are too many games (and also the real world out there) for me to play the same game again after finishing it. I might make one exception for "Black flag" but this MGS-game is definitely not one I want to play again to find another tunnel or some item in a hidden backroom.
    It was extremely short and imho a huge waste of money.
    (Spoiler alert)
    And the ending was not exactly rewarding either.    … Expand

    Metal Gear Solid V Ground Zeroes Review: 5/10
    I didn't enjoy MGS Ground Zeroes. I expected a complete game, but felt like I was playing some kind of demo. My only motivation to continue is to get all the trophies and... that's it.
    Although the mechanics are great I would love to use them in different areas, more variety of missions, different enemies... I got interested to the story and    Metal Gear Solid V Ground Zeroes Review: 5/10

    Apesar de ser o MGS mais curto, serve muito bem ao seu propósito, ser um prólogo fantástico do melhor Metal Gear de todos. Tem várias missões variáveis pra manter sua vida útil, muito bom.

    Um exelente prólogo para um jogo ótimo como TPP, uma pena ser tão curto, mas compensa em sua qualidade e profundidade narrativa.

    Despite it's main campaign shortness, ground zeroes provide so many beautiful content and interesting story perspective and an awesome polished gameplay that it became one of the best entry in the series... I spend more than 30 hours in this game, it's definitely a must play

    Excelente juego, pero lo que no me gusto mucho es que un prologo, debieron haber ahorrado el tiempo para lanzar un solo MGSV mas completo.

    As short as it was, loved all it had to offer. And the bigger story comes in Phantom Pain and you realize why it was better to separate the two.

    No compre este juego. Alquílalo por un día. Soy dueño de todos los MGS y todos los juegos que Kojima ha hecho (incluidos Policenauts, Snacher, etc.) Ahora que hemos cubierto el hecho de que se trata de una demostración de $ 30 y una desvergonzada toma de efectivo que sin duda será un gran empaño para lo que de otro modo sería increíble reputación de nuestro amado Kojim

    A vision of the future of what awaits us with The Phantom Pain, the Deja Vu mission is exceptional for a fan of the serie. I don't like judging games by their price but this is a $30 intro, that's too much. The promise made with the story (with the help of the trailers) made me hope for a story without concession for The Phantom Pain.

    Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes[a] is a 2014 action-adventure stealth video game developed by Kojima Productions and published by Konami.

    The perfect stealth experience. The Phantom Pain being a awful makes this game every bit better. the open world doesnt work, while ground zeroes created the perfect formula for a mission in a stealth game.

    No tiene nada positivo que se haya vendido como un producto aparte de TPP, fue solamente una estrategia sucia para sacar un poco más de dinero. La experiencia que brinda es agradable, pero nada más. Solo unas cuantas misiones, skins diferentes para Big Boss y records personales en cada misión.

    Metal Gear Solid Ground Zeroes (2/10 Discount Hitman): Ground Zeroes is an extremely short prequel to Metal Gear Solid 5. While the actual gameplay is fine, everything else is extremely lacking. The entire game consists of one level with multiple selectable mission objectives. The primary story mission involves rescuing two targets from confinement and extracting them via helicopter.

    Este juego no debió costar $30 como costó en su día, aun asi me costó 20 y apenas se me hace un precio justo, pq esto es sin no es una demo, es simplemente el inició de phantom pain y muy buena demostración de lo que se venía, buena introducción del control que hasta ahorita se me hace una maravilla, y el cliffhanger de la historia me gustó mucho.

    Sadly this game was not really worth what they were selling it at. Even though this is true I really adore games that take less than 12 hours to finish that I can play over and over again. I had a lot of fun with what little it has.

    Weird controls which you have to learn all by yourself, the tutorials are next to non-existent. And the story, it's my first MGS game and they try to bring me up to speed with scrolling texts, can you believe it?

    There might be an interesting game in this engine, but it’s not here, not yet, and as a result Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes is at best a very expensive demo that should only be approached with the lowest expectations.
