Compelling story line with characters you care about. What's not to like?

If you are an MGS fan, don't hesitate and buy it. If you are not, you should also try it.

This is the first time I write my feedback for a game but I feel that I have to justify the game.

Things I heard most often before I actually get to play the game is that this is only a tutorial to the future MGS:TPP, and it only takes less than an hour to finish, and yet it costs 22 GBP. I thought it's gonna be a total rip off, but as a MGS fan, I paid for it nevertheless. After I received it and played it for hours, I have to say that you should never doubt Hideo Kojima, this game is really fun to play, it feels 100% next-gen, the graphics, the concepts, the game mechanics, I really can't figure out how they manage to give us such graphics on the ps3 console, but they made it. The most importance thing is, it gives you the feeling that this is still the MGS game we all used to know, something has changed but every bit of what we liked about the game is still there and has become even smoother and better. Unlike some other stealth franchises such as Hitman and Splinter Cell, no offense but every time I play a newly released title I feel like I'm playing a different game, so it's very hard for you to stay loyal to those franchises.

So much for the gameplay, I want to say something about the story. No need to panic because there are not gonna be any spoilers. Hideo Kojima has told us that the story will become much darker in MGS5, but I didn't expect it to be THIS dark, after I finished the main story. watched the ending cutscene and listened to some of the cassette tapes, I was so shocked that it took me really long time to recover from it, so if you are a fan and know the story really well, embrace yourself for the horrifying but still excellent story.

For those who are still hesitating due to the comments on playtime, I assure you that the game can give you tens of hours of fun since there are tons of things to do so cancel your order for game that has won millions of prizes in E3 and everyeone seems to be hyping for it and claimes to be the biggest hit of next-gen and got giant mechs and start with T but is still empty and boring, spend the money on this game, you won't regret it.

Una buona introduzione

Reviewed in Italy on June 22, 2023

Un gioco che nella sua narrativa è meraviglioso, tuttavia il gioco in sé a volte diventa ripetitivo e noioso. Se amate la saga di Metal Gear, questo si discosta tanto dagli originali perché è stato introdotto il concetto di open world. Kojima le storie le sa raccontare. Ground Zeroes non è altro che una piccola introduzione al gioco vero e proprio e sinceramente è anche meglio rispetto al gioco vero e proprio. Grafica pazzesca e giocabilità migliorata. Ovviamente dura molto poco, ma l'esperienza è positiva.

Received a scratched disc in a sealed box

Reviewed in India on June 27, 2020

Platform For Display: PlayStation 3Verified Purchase

It's been a few weeks now without any response from the seller so I don't have any hope really. But I am hoping with the insanity in the world there is some humanity left in people.

I am not bitter about using a scratched disc, if it plays fine I have no issues. I have been a Hideo Kojima fan for aeons and the only reason I shelled out this much for an MGSV 'demo' despite owning Phantom Pain was to complete my MGS collection for the PS3. Now it is just a hollow box with an unplayable disc nestled between my copies of MGSIV and MGSV.

So all I have to say is Buyer Beware. Maybe this was just a one off from the seller as other reviews sing high praises, but this was just my crappy experience buying this. And hopefully it helps you, the seller or Amazon in some way.

Great MGS experience but a little short.

This is a very good MGS game the physics and graphics are a vast improvement in fact the best ive seen so far on ps3 :} and yet there is so much more then good graphics the AI is so clever if you so much as move a little bit in front of a guards field of view they will get suspicious and call in to CP (command post) and put the base on caution. also the weapons are amazingly made with realism and the rain drips down the soldiers as if real rain I enjoyed multiple play throughs on this but now to the negative which is the game was very short you have only one campaign mission and 3 extra ops and an unlockable extra op after obtaining all XOF patches but apart from the shortness its a great game for 20 quid and will keep you occupied for hours especially trying to get S-Rank lol. Definitely recommended for MGS fans and new fans alike.

Personally loved it though

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 3, 2017

Platform For Display: PlayStation 3Verified Purchase

WHOA - can't get over quite how unremittingly dark the storyline is. I mean, seriously. This does contain some heavy, HEAVY stuff. Definitely NOT suitable for kids. Personally loved it though. Didn't think I would enjoy another MGS game post David Hater but surprisingly worked. game play is good, challenging, open-world - you can tackle it however you like with varying degree's of success. Main story-line is short as everyone mentions, but re-play is actually very good - completing the main story-line mission only finishes around 6 percent of the full game and that's assuming you manage to rescue all the POW's as well as two primary characters, so MUCH left to do and explore. Collecting all the XOF patches opens up additions levels on top of those completing the game unlocks - all told you can pick away at this for some considerable time after, refining your skills ready for the follow-up main game The Phantom Pain. Collecting the cassettes opens a world of horror you'd rather never know existed (assuming you play them back) and parents should be ware this game contains seriously adult material not very far beneath the surface - but this isn't to detract from the achievement of creating a game franchise where the real-life horrors of war can be addressed alongside enormously enjoyable entertainment. Hideo Kojima doesn't censor the audience - he leaves you free to find things out for yourself without ramming morality down your throat. You make up your own mind about what you take with you - and I think that's important. Very good game, especially now its cheaper. 10/10

Tutto perfetto.

Consegna rapidissima e pacco arrivato in condizioni perfette. La custodia è in italiano, il che è stato una piacevole sorpresa, dato che l'aspettavo in inglese. Il gioco è compreso dell'opzione multilingua e non presenta difetti degni di nota.
La missione principale ha una durata ridicola, ma ve ne sono altre sei secondarie da sbloccare seguendo particolari condizioni. Tutte le misisoni presentano due diverse difficoltà e possono essere risolte in vari modi, aumentandone la longevità e la rigiocabilità.
Essendo fan della saga do voto pieno, ma sottolineo che l'acquisto è consigliato solo a chi è interessato a recuperare anche il seguito "Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain", essendo questo "Ground Zeroes" solo un prologo.
Se non avete mai giocato ad un "Metal Gear" non potrete apprezzarne appieno la trama.

honest reviewer man

metal gear shortage ..

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 24, 2014

Platform For Display: PlayStation 3Verified Purchase

Technically a very good game excellent graphics and very cinematic. Graphics really are the best i've ever seen on a ps3 console. It really feels like an interactive movie which metal gear solid games have been known for in recent years. However the game is extremely short and really only takes a few hours to complete which is quite shocking to be honest. Additional game modes which makes the game last bit longer. However the main part of the game is too short therefore is not really value for money. It's almost like playing 1 big over or not about game weather is the prices cheaper i would give it a high rating however due to the price and length of the game demo with a few extra modes. Overall a good game however due to the price and length of the game i can only give an average rating.

Metal Gear Solid Is back.

This game is a tease if there ever was one. The mechanics, visuals, and plot (not much, but what there is is amazing) are top-notch. Kojima has packed in more thought provoking, crazy sh*t into a 30min-ish mission that most developers will fit into 10 hours. The side-ops make the game last much longer, and are very fun. The freedom to play any way and try out different things is also brilliant.
I'd recommend this to any Metal Gear Solid fan, maybe not to a newcomer however, who may feel cheated. I however don't, this is well worth the £22 I paid!
