Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes

Although I'm not very familiar with the Metal Gear Solid series, I love quality stealth action games. And this is perhaps one of the best stealth games I've played! One mission (if we count only the "GROUND ZEROES" mission, NOT counting ANOTHER 5-7 side missions at different times of the day and tasks that are not similar to one another), one location, not much? But this ONE mission can be completed on two difficulties, in several ways: in one go, without killing, without stunning or using a tranquilizer, etc.

Plus, at least a dozen different types of weapons are hidden in this location. Plus the game has good optimization, with such cinematic graphics the game is not too demanding and even my rather weak laptop can play this game well. (Of course there is no 30 fps, somewhere around 15-20 … Read full

I don't think this game should be called a "paid demo". Of course, it appears to have little content, but only in appearance. A lot of audio recordings, additional tasks, bonus missions, even if they all take place on the same training ground, but this is much more than the usual demo version.

The game itself is a bold step forward in the stealth action genre. Before this project, few people thought that even in the old parts of the "thief", in fact, the levels were built according to a corridor system with many workarounds. What has changed over the years? There were fewer and fewer workarounds, and the corridors became narrower. Kojima literally kicks us out of the helicopter into a huge location with the words “you need to save two people. Figure it out yourself.” And here we have to stu… Read full

To be honest, before the announcement of the fifth part, I had not even heard of the game. However, the huge number of positive reviews about the previous parts convinced me that the game is worthy of attention. I would like to start with graphics. It is good, and with excellent optimization (I would like to believe that this is the problem, and not the tiny size of the location), the game ran almost at maximum on my old computer. The stealth in the game is interesting, although I didn’t notice anything particularly new for this genre. The only upsetting thing was the typical behavior of the enemies, who lose sight of you as soon as you hide behind a barrel before running right in front of the flashlight. Unfortunately, I can’t say anything meaningful about the plot because I’m not familiar with the previous parts of the series, and in this “prologue” almost nothing is clear.
