    I really enjoyed this game. This was my first entry in the Metal Gear universe and I was in love with it. The open world worked fine for me, the story is very well written and the mission design is just amazing. I loved every single time that I had to prepare myself to go to the open world according to the mission that I was going to do, taking different equipments and    9/10

    I've never been that big a fan of the Metal Gear Solid series - I found the controls clumsy, the one-false-move-and-you're-dead trial and error formula exasperating and seemed to spend more time watching the games than actually playing them.

    What are the best game? Please have a video game. Smooth and intuitive. Excellent graphics and great usability. Story left a little to be desired

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Es un METAL GEAR en toda regla es extraño y ofrece esa acción que tanto nos gusta. lastima que no lo pude jugar en su lanzamiento por falta de dinero. Pero que vale la pena haber esperado.

    Soy gran fan de la saga y de las ideas de Kojima me parece un tipo único. Obviamente le falta para ser una obra maestra y algo mas por criticar es que de pronto la historia y los sucesos del juego pudieron haber sido un poco mas elaborados. el mundo me parece muy vacío. los npcs son super torpes parecen IA super sencilla las mas de 40 misiones principales algunas están hechas solo por rellenar pero eso aun así no quita su apartado grafico es brutal sus controles son super intuitivos y una estabilidad grafica en el ps4. lo hace un juego bueno pero o una obra maestra.

    Good story. Great missions. Cool environments for the sandbox approach. Weapons and items available are a lot of fun.

    Good story with a good plot twist at the end.
    Graphics look better than some games released today.
    Some of the best third person gameplay ever.
    Tons of weapon and tool variety giving the player lots of different ways of approaching a mission.
    Cinematography is 11/10
    I wish we got that "mission 51" to probably conclude the story

    This is Konami’s best swan song ever! Gameplay, setpiece, story, everything about this game is feel like is incredible as hell. This game is definitely a 100% masterpiece.

    This game affected me so much that I had to change my channel name.

Anyway, the only defect of this game is that Quiet looks exactly like my ex-wife!… Expand

    To make one thing clear: 0 point reviews are mainly "sponsored" by opposing industry which is why they are mainly pointless. Some of the 10 point reviews may be "sponsored" too – but in case of MGS V 10 points are fully justified from an objective point of view. Simple as that. A modern classic as for me.

Anything you want to approach, can be approached in almost infinite possibilities. I absolutely adored this game, from its side content, to the main story. Everything feels amazing to control aswell, and the game doesn't fail to succeed at base-building either. As base-building can sometimes be considered tedious, it feels like you are the (as implied) big boss at a building company. This game's story, the bosses, and consideration put into the game is all truly something to marvel at. However, since Konami did what they did, I cannot put this game any higher than an 8. For more context, just search up why Konami fired Kojima after MGSV.… Expand

    só tenho uma coisa pra dizer...
    metal gear solid 3 é melhor, más o gameplay mundo aberto e o gameplay diversificado com gráficos de nova geração por 84 reais merece no minimo um 7.

    Its honestly pretty good!! I dont like some of the missions and the gameplay is kinda confusing. But the story and game in general is great and I am thankful for Hideo Kojima for creating the Metal Gear franchise!

    I have to start praising the incredible optimization of this game with extremely beautiful graphics, which runs on machines and consoles that just by looking at it, one is surprised to see that it runs on lighter devices. The script is great, especially the voice team and the game's memorable characters.

    Posiblemente es la mejor jugabilidad que existe en un videojuego hasta la fecha, me parece simplemente sobresaliente, sinceramente no me canso de jugarlo, el control del personaje esta muy cuidado y se hace muy entretenido teniendo en cuenta que es un juego muy repetitivo y por ultimo el apartado técnico es sublime.

    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]
