    A really good game. I played over 450 hours but I don't review a 10/10 score because the entire game is so repetitive and where is the mission 51? This game have a perfect gameplay and the buddies have a fantastic A.I, but the older MGS is better. R.I.P Konami.

    Before I begin the story to MGSVTPP is very bland and it tries to tie too many games in a short amount of time. It feels rushed at points but considering Konami is a bunch of idiots working like a group of monkeys releasing all of their good game designers out the door it isn’t too surprising. So
    Konami is a crap box company. With that said…

    Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain (A mouthful) is a fun game. An open world stealth action game where it benefits to either capture your foe or make him work for you, or kill everybody that is within plain eyesight. (ba dum dum) The fact that the game is an open world sandbox allows for you to take creative approaches on how you go about capturing a base. You can have a lot of fun making a bunch of noise and acting like some homicidal eye patch wearing maniac that is trotting through the desert killing every single person in their path (unless plot says otherwise). Or you can be some type of deformed James Bond. However which way you want to go about it, you can do it.

    Multiplayer isn’t great, capturing competitor bases and earning points that can be spent improving your base adds a challenge to the game. There is an assortment of weapons you can chose and develop. You have tiny fighting robots that make the game… interesting. The gameplay can be addictive once you get into it. But honestly there is a lot of good to the game. Considering it’s getting cheaper and cheaper by the day, it’s defiantly worth the pickup.

    There isn’t a whole lot to be said. The creator is a troll that made this game to be a horror title than said it was a joke and it became this pleasure. Then with the whole fiasco with P.T. Konami and Hideo Kojima just seem to have different viewpoints as what a game can be. When you see what Hideo can do with a horror title it makes me hope that Death Stranding is the P.T. we didn’t get. But considering he said the game isn’t going to be a horror genre and something along the lines of action whatever I have my doubts.

    Anyway, if you don’t care about inner game company politics and just want a good game to play, you cannot go wrong with this game.

    Happy Gaming.    … Expand

Whereas older games in the series are literally impossible without stealthy kills and espionage, this installment allows you to approach each and every mission exactly how you want. Combine this with the massive world map, countless easter eggs, ridiculously expansive weapon customisation, innovative base creation and gorgeous graphics, this is the best Metal Gear since the groundbreaking Metal Gear Solid, for me.

    The controls are tight, the difficulty is consistently tough but always managable, and as mentioned, every mission and side mission can be completed in whatever way you choose. You can sneak into a compound under shadow and slit every soldier's throat in the area. You can call an air strike to destroy entire regiments. You can call on allies to personally assist you in the field. You can set numerous traps and lure enemies to their death. Even when you appear to have messed up a mission, there is almost always a way to still reach your goal, and this is one of MGSV's best strengths - even if your careful planning collapses, nothing's there to stop you whipping out your emergency rocket launcher and blitzing enemies. It is FAR harder to go in all guns blazing, but the variety offered by the gameplay can suit your mood and you really can make movie-style moments appear from thin air in a rush of panicked decision-making or last-minute successes.

    The freedom and scale of the game is incredible, but returning home to your secret base floating in the middle of the deep ocean is so satisfying. As you progress in the game, loot raw materials, recruit any soldier you take down (via the amazing Fulton extraction balloons), and accrue reputation and money, you can expand your base physically and technically to suit your needs. Add med bays to keep your soldiers (which you can dispatch on missions real-time for extra materials), add research facilities to improve your equipment customisation. The base literally grows every time you helicopter in and is a solid tracker of your game and story progress, as you try to reform the world's first country-less army.

    The story is maybe the only thing lacking in this game, off the back of the fantastically convoluted prior games. MGS is known for its interesting characters and story twists, and MGSV steps back a little, with very few truly plot-driven moments. This is evident mostly at the end of the game, as the main storyline rounds off and only loose ends exist. One exception to this problem is Quiet, one of the coolest franchise characters in a while. But even she, with her ludicrous but amazing backstory, is underutilised. I guess the lack of story focus allows for the immersive gameplay experience, but I'm sure they could've squeezed in a bit more character development if they tried - it does feel like there's a DLC missing or something.

    Despite the narrative hiccup, MGSV is technically speaking probably the best-functioning game I've ever played. Allowing you to completely adhere to your own likes, dislikes and strengths, whether that be customising the hell out of your gear, slowly and tactically taking down enemies, destroying them completely with nuclear-grade mechas or exploring every inch of the equatorial landscape, there's something for you.

    Easily the most fun game I've played in a decade.    … Expand

The map is massive, but very empty, yet, there are a handful of really great areas to hone your stealth and skills. The story feels like a sidenote rather than seamlessly blending into each chapter, but that's partly due to the way the missions are set out. As great as this game could have been, it falls short in ways like repetitive missions and a load of them. Base building is quite cool and farming soldiers to defend your base and upgrade equipment. All in all it is a great action game, but I personally don't see it as a great Metal Gear. Still, it is quite fantastic for the most part.… Expand

    The only complaint I have with this game is that it’s kind of same old same with regards to missions after playing for about 50 hours or so. But that isn’t so bad really, I mean 50 hours of entertainment is good right?

    I'm embarrassed to say that this was my first MGS experience.

    But at least that gives me an open mind when playing this game, as i'm not comparing it to previous games in the series.

    The game looks great, the combat is fun but the story tails off toward the end (although it does have some brilliant sections).

    what really pissed me off is chapter 2, the game clearly wasn't finished the way it's supposed to, I had to do my own mini research on google just to make sense of the story (I'm not really into MGS lore mind you).

    overall the game is solid =) you should get it, but if you are new to the series please keep in mind that the game is Japanese through and through so some westerners may find it really strange at times.    … Expand

    What can I say that isn't already said? Game mechanics are **** brilliant. Many games claim and are, in essence, "Open world".

Nowadays, games that are "Open world" are confused with "Sandbox Games", when in actuality, they are more restrictive than ANY linear game experience I've ever experienced.What can I say that isn't already said? Game mechanics are **** brilliant. Many games claim and are, in essence, "Open world". But rarely is that compensated with "Sandbox fun" often attributed to "Open world" games. Nowadays, games that are "Open world" are confused with "Sandbox Games", when in actuality, they are more restrictive than ANY linear game experience I've ever experienced. Red Dead Redemption 2, while a great game, is so restrictive in mission design and ways of interacting with the open world, that sometimes it turns a linear experience with a really big backdrop to it. MGSV: TPP sorts all that **** out and scratches that itch of "Do whatever the **** you want, EVEN WHEN YOU'RE ON A MISSION". There's nothing you can or can't do, and on top of that, the story is intriguing, and well directed, despite the game itself not necessarily being story driven.

    The story will satisfy most, with tapes that are completely optional to listen to fleshing out the story and lore further. Even better, is that you can listen to these cassettes WHILE ON MISSIONS, giving them a "Audiobook feel" as you just soak in every word while you kick the **** out of highly trained and equiped soldiers and shooting them back to base with your Fulton all undetected. All these "Hardcore" MGS fans who are butt hurt are simply salty because it breaks up the formula of the classic MGS games. Well **** that. If you are in 2 minds about this game, go with the mind of "I want that game" because you SERIOUSLY won't regret it. Also, make sure you get the definitive experience, as it comes with the start of the story with Ground Zeroes. A great tutorial level for the main game. Although be careful. Going from full control of Snake in Ground Zeroes right into frustratingly slow crawling and cutscene land can be jarring. If you want to play the game as soon as possible, start right from the get-go in the main game. Or just do whatever you want, however you want it. (Just like the game!)

    Incredibly, ANY negatives about this game are so small and lacking in consequence over the experience of the game that there virtually ARE no negatives. Despite the background development problems between Konami and Kojima, the game is not incomplete. It is complete, and worth every **** MINUTE OF PLAY AND CENT YOU SPEND ON IT. GET IT NOW, IT'S MORE WORTH IT NOW THAN WHEN IT WAS RELEASED.    … Expand

    I remember not being able to afford MGS: Snake Eater, so instead I watched a walkthrough from start to finish on Youtube. I remember watching my friend play MGS 4, and wishing I owned a PS3. The first MGS game I did get to experience was Peace Walker on the PSP. A fantastic game. It still is one of my favorites. - You might wonder what any of this has to do with MGS5, and I'll tell you. In all these games I've mentioned, each had consistent mechanics that made it an MGS game. While MGS V has added and improved upon most of them, such as the stealth gameplay, graphics, the buddy-system and bringing over the base management system from peace walker, it has missed out on a crucial area which really defines and shines in an MGS game. The narrative.
    The opening hours are the only time this game feels like an MGS game, the cinematic feel, the incredibly over the top yet magnetic action on screen, and paranormal entities I know I'll be facing in future levels. After that however, the story flatlines. Nothing happens. You go to Afghanistan, then you go to Angola. Very interesting biomes, but after a few hours they feel sparse. There are some interesting plot-lines such as child soldiers and biological warfare, but none of it really connects on a deeper level. It could have been replaced with another plot-line such as conventional warfare and it wouldn't have made a difference, other than alter a few missions. Boss fights are non-existent, and the few that are there are a chore. Run, dive, shoot missile. Run, dive, shoot missile. Repeat. Peace-walker had better, more interesting and varied boss-fights, and that game came out in 2010 for the PSP!
    Not only is the story weak, it's pacing is abysmal, and this affects the gameplay as well. I have a hunch that this is due to Kojima and Konami's less than amicable breakup. This game has the most story padding I've ever encountered in my life. I'm not exaggerating. You can not progress with the main story unless you repeat certain missions on a higher difficulty. Reading Critic reviews where none of this is brought up makes me wonder if the reviewers actually got that far in the game before publishing their review....
    While the characters are interesting as ever, there were no memorable story moments. Since this game is a prequel, Kojima might have been limited in scope and ambition, but I don't see how that's enough of a reason for the story to be lackluster. The gameplay is phenomenal, but the game painfully lacks an MGS story.
    The reason for my high rating is the exceptional stealth gameplay.
    While this game is undoubtedly great, it is not worth the "Best PS4 Game of 2015" . The 10/10s for this game confuse me. Honestly, reading the reviews, both Critic and User, shows me people didn't finish the game, or even got far into the campaign.
    While you usually wouldn't find so much focus on the negatives on a game rated 8/10, you have to understand the lost potential. This could have been the best MGS game of all time. But it's only the best in some departments. I haven't played 1 and 2, but Snake Eater, Guns of the Patriot, and even Peace Walker had a more engaging and flowing narrative. I had no problem with Phantom Pain's segmented mission structure, where you return to Mother Base (or the ACP) in between missions. But the lacking conjunction of story between the missions is what killed me.
    While originally playing the game for the very first time, I gave it a 10/10. Now, my rose-tinted glasses have fallen off, and I'm realizing that this is not the best MGS game.

    My reasons include:
    - Lack of a story
    - Boss fights
    - Immense story padding
    - No variety in missions
    - Two interesting, but albeit empty biomes

    The game, while improving on gameplay aspects, falls disappointingly short of its predecessors in many regards. Personally, I am certain it would've been the perfect send-off to the series if Kojima could have had more time to finish the game. It is an incomplete game in terms of narrative. The story is mutilated, and different missions are too far spread apart, and too few.
    The collectors edition has a documentary, where you can see another chapter of the game title "Peace". This would've been the actual ending, but alas, it is missing from the game. This is because the game is not complete. I would've given a rating of 9/10, but the lack of variety in missions combined with having to repeat missions to progress bought it down to a 8/10.
    Konami robbed us of this game, truly.    … Expand

    Great stealth game with amazing gameplay, graphics, soundtrack, and everything else. But as a Metal Gear game, probaly one of the weakest, Konami and Kojima beefs didn't help on this game development, besides this, some characters are forgotten, the main villain is pretty wacky, and the rest of the missions are the same first missions with harder difficult.

The sheer amount of content alone is worth a 10/10, but as if that wasn’t enough, the quality itself surpasses anything that could be scored on a rating system. Definitely a good fit almost no matter what type of gamer you are.

    El gameplay de MGS V es increible, creo que llega al punto de ser perfecta, pero en lo que falla totalmente este juego es en su historia. La historia no llama mucho la atención, los personajes y los jefes solo están ahí porque sí, no hay ningún interés en profundizar con los personajes del todo.

    Kojima hizo un excelente trabajo con esta nueva versión de MGS, lo único malo de esta obra de arte es la repetición, al termino de cada misión primaria, de quienes hicieron el juego (Kojima y equipo). Quieren hacerte saber, a toda costa, quien hizo el juego, dando a entender la relacion tensa entre Konami y Kojima.
    Volviendo al juego, MGS es mi saga preferida y recomiendo 100% el jugarlo, para entender un poco TPP tienes que jugar, con anterioridad, Ground Zeroes    … Expand

    A god damn masterpiece. Worth every single penny, even if you don't like stealth games... because you can approach a scenario any way you want. It gives you so much freedom and creativity sometimes I wonder if something I did wasan't even meant to be in the game. And if even all that sounds bad, there's a cute puppy so just get the game for the puppy. But, there are some problems. TheA god damn masterpiece.

And if even all that sounds bad, there's a cute puppy so just get the game for the puppy. But, there are some problems. The biggest problem is the fact this game was made by Hideo Kojima, so of course there's a whole part dedicated to pervy camera angles of a woman in a bra and panties. But other than that this game is amazing. Just get it.… Expand

    For me is a surprise how they completely changed the game and still managed to make a master piece. Yes, i dont like this episodic missions system and the story end is not the best. But gameplay is perfect, performance and grapics are incredible, this new feature of building your own mother base is super fun in multiplayer.

But gameplay is perfect, performance and grapics are incredible, this new feature of building your own mother base is super fun in multiplayer. The amount of weapons, gadgets and stuff you can do to infiltrate in enemy lines are endless, they bring vehicles, recruiting soldier system, open world feells so alive, lot of collectables, animals, resources...etc. Everything its just so perfectly well done. For me is a 9. Mandatory for the fans.… Expand

    It is such a pity that the last few missions are just harder versions of the former ones. And the online features seem quite annoying to me. If there were no drawbacks above, it would have been a perfect game.

    Flawed masterpiece. This is as good as it gets when it comes to stealth gameplay, some really cool ideas and huge scope of the game, but it does feel unfinished. I guess Kojima had too big ambitions on this one.

    If this is where Kojima does finally leave the series he created, it will be a bittersweet send-off, both for Big Boss and one of gaming's most intriguing auteurs.

    The holy grail of world-building games, it’s argued, is a black box that lets players do as they like with minimal handholding. Pliability with just the right measure of accountability. Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, a tactical stealth simulation wrapped in a colossal resource management puzzle inside a love letter to theatrical inscrutability, comes the closest of any game I’ve yet played to realizing that ideal.

    There’s no denying the Game of the Year potential of The Phantom Pain. The campaign is absolutely massive, it’s almost too much to cope. That being said, Chapter II is a huge let-down and feels like artificial padding. Still, this is about as good as tactical espionage operations can get in a video game. [Oct 2015]
