    Um dos melhores jogos de ação que já joguei, combado com uma ótima gameplay e uma excelente trilha sonora, consegue tornar fã mesmo quem não conhece a franquia inteira, um jogo que te faz querer saber mais sobre o passado dos personagens

    Metal Gear Solid V will be considered as a timeless masterpiece the uniqueness, creativity and smoothness of the gameplay is something I've never seen before in a video game. One of the best games I've ever played.

    one of the best games i have ever played, i thought the story was great, the gameplay was awesome, the only flaw i saw was the lifeless open world , big open world yet not much to do but repetitive boring side missions. but the main story makes up for it

    The game has its own problems, because of the conflict with Konami, the game was not finished, but nevertheless it gave me a lot of emotions on a solid 10!

    This is the first metal gear solid game I’ve played and I absolutely love it, I hope the previous games get a remake or remaster so I can see how it all began.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is a PS4 masterpiece, the best in the series in terms of gameplay/mechanics, genius diversity of controls and choices, the base building and recruting is complicated and fun, which gives the multiplayer the meaning it needs, the intro is the best I’ve ever seen in a video game, the smart/shocking plot twost ending makes you relise the greatness of this game and it’s plot, the characters, bossfights, soundtrack were all badass and great, not to mention the cassette dialog, long but never bored of it
    The chapter 2 had some reptitive missions as an error that should’ve not happened    … Expand

    One of my favourite titles of all time, even after some time since it’s first publishing, it sits amongst the most accurate tactical and espionage action shooters, the details in this gem are the real deal.
    Good story (don’t mock the game for the complexity of the story pls, if you can’t understand such things the kindergarten may suit you better) but would have liked more polished aspects    One of my favourite titles of all time, even after some time since it’s first publishing, it sits amongst the most accurate tactical and espionage action shooters, the details in this gem are the real deal.
    Good story (don’t mock the game for the complexity of the story pls, if you can’t understand such things the kindergarten may suit you better) but would have liked more polished aspects of it (as well as a complete ending, still I’m really happy and satisfied with the actual ending).
    Crazy good characters, both the voice acting and action scenes, the immagination and detailing in these are at movie levels.
    I hope Kojima sorts things out, as I would really love to see more titles of this phenomenal series, but only time will tell.

    Hope Snake won’t keep us waiting much more longer.    … Expand

    Beautiful ending to a legendary series, and the perfect sequel to Peace Walker. Hideo manages to do the unthinkable and actually pulls off a real love story in the Metal Gear universe. This game has some of the best cutscenes in the entire series without all the bloated backstory exposition and decadent 15 minute monologues. This is stealth gameplay at its best.

    MGSV is one the best games I’ve ever played. The controls are tight, the stealth is the best it’s ever been, but the obvious star of the show is the open world. The freedom you have in approaching missions is unparalleled, and it makes you want to go through every mission a million times just to see how many ways you can complete it.

The story, in comparison to other entries in the series, is a little weak. it makes up for it with stellar voice performances and some thought provoking philosophical commentary. All in all, MGSV delivers where it counts. Great action, a liberating open world, and wacky, over the top set-ups.… Expand

    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]
