Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes (Xbox 360)

Good distraction for stressed out relatives.
mum loved it. I asked her how many stars to give and she almost shouted 5 - very quick response for her too.Her playing it constantly though was irritating especially when trying to read with all that noise going on (including her shouting things like "just die already" and "ha that's what you get")Only buy for a relative if you have earplugs!But in all seriousness if you want to distract your child/childish mother from stressing out about covid 19 you definitely want to buy this. It is a very immersive game it is a real feat to capture her attention for as long as this game did since she gets bored very easily these days

Good for a metal gear fan... wait for the full game to come out if your not a metal gear fan
As I am a big metal gear fan this game is just what I wanted. The graphics were awesome even on the Xbox 360 the movement between cameras was slick. No lag, no freezes perfect.Only thing I will say is for a new person that decided to buy this game without buying the previous metal gears it will cause some issues:The story won't make much sense.The length of the game will disappoint themCertain features that are new to a metal gear fan will seem average to a new person.This game is very VERY short, as its a kind of a taste what is to come in the full game later coming out called 'The Phantom Pain'But for me I can't deny how good the gameplay is and the important side of the story (as a metal gear fan)If I was perfectly honest. Order this game & 'The phantom pain' TOGETHER to have a better overall experience of the game for the majority of gamers out there.

Replay Value!
Fantastic Metal Gear Solid game. people complaining about it being 'too short' or too expensive or that its a 'glorified demo' are not real Metal Gear fans. Metal Gear Solid games are designed to be replayed over and over; approaching the game from different angles, exploring new strategies and weapons, finding easter eggs and secrets.if this is your first exposure to a Metal Gear Solid game you may be confused by it. if your someone who plays a game only once then you might feel cheated, because you have to understand that MGS is designed to be replayed over and over.Even I waited until the 1st price drop to order this game, but i was not disappointed. and now that it's even lower, as long as you understand that to fully experience these games you have to go back again and again, you shouldn't be disappointed either.

Essential for MGS fans
Essential for MGS fans. Even though it is short, it does encourage you to re-play the game, and i did all the extra missions knowing that my data will go straight into Phantom Pain. Enjoyable story (especially if you have played Peace Walker) Kiefer Sutherland is perfect as Big Boss - despite my love for David Hayter.Like the new direction Konami and Kojima have taken this game, more open, more free, more emotional but still very much Metal Gear as we know it.Personally as equivalent to a good appetizer at a restaurant that you can eat over and over gain for the same price - its definitely worth it!

metal gear solid ground zeros
Graphics and playability very good. The level of difficulty is quite high even at lower levels ... a real stealth game where hiding and crawling on the ground will be the only way to save the skin. I bought it from pandagames used to a few euros .... I think it's the right way to spend money on a game that although good is really too short .... thanks to the serious and reliable seller!

A bit over priced for such a short game, but a very promising lead up to "MGS: The Phantom Pain"!
So, I absolutely love the MGS. series but became a little disenchanted with the release of "Peace Walker" due to it's overly complex, time consuming, R.P.G. style game play. Nevertheless, I couldn't help but buy "MGS: Ground Zeroes" but I have to say that it is probably the best entry in the series in terms of game play, at least until the release of "The Phantom Pain". The new system has a more open-world feel to it, even to the point where the player can drive around in vehicles. The combat system is quite similar to "Peace Walker" but without the nonsense of leveling up guns or enemies having Hit Points. What lets "Ground Zeroes" down is its short length, I pretty much completed the whole thing in a couple of days. This wouldn't bother me if I hadn't paid the price of a fully developed game. Nevertheless, the game delivers more of a truly sneaking experience and promises good things for "The Phantom Pain".

What's the fuss about?
Why people slating the game to 3 stars or less cuz it's a demo?This is a MGS game to see another game await called The Phanton Pain.But my concern is let me say where is all the other guys who's does the voice acting?David Hayter as Snake or Colonel it's like they been replaced.And poorly done on Snake's voice not even good as David's one.Well Snake does not do kicks or punches he did in MGS 2 he grabs that player instead.Overall this is still a fun MGS outing game less cutscenes too.

A paid demo. GG Kojima.
A cynical man might see this as a blatant cash grab but I'm not completely sold on that. Some would say that the launch price did not equate to the amount of content and to that I can agree. If you somehow haven't heard about this 'game' and have a Metal Gear itch that simply must be scratched, buy it used. I'd prepare for disappointment if I were you though.
