Ground Zeroes: Did We Really Need An Intro To Phantom Pain?

Konami has said many times that Ground Zeroes is designed to "ease players into a new MGS world." But if you think about it, that doesn't make much sense.

I honestly think they would have been better off just including Ground Zeroes with Phantom Pain when it releases.

porkChop3715d ago

Yeah, like they did with the tanker mission from MGS2 and the virtuous mission from MGS3. Prologues should be part of the main package. Even though MGS5 is completely different from the other MGS games, a simple tutorial would be enough to get players to understand the new mechanics.

Kingthrash3603715d ago

agreed.
heres hoping they give a discount for mgsv to players who buy gz. kinda like cod/bf4/ac4 did with the upgrade system. that would take the sting of a $40(at most) buy of a intro. say if you pay 40 you get mgsv for an additional 30...or something like that.

GribbleGrunger3714d ago (Edited 3714d ago )

Yes we did, but it shouldn't have been sold separately to make them more money.

WitWolfy3715d ago

Screw that, include the prologue with the main package. If the fans cant wait then screw them!!! it isn't like there are millions of others stealth games out there that can easily replace MGS because of not releasing this year.

Get over it! Tt will be finished, when its finished!

ZodTheRipper3715d ago

Well I'm really happy that I get to play MGS so early on my PS4 so screw you too ;)

WitWolfy3714d ago

NO NO NO NO.. Screw you!!! lol just joking

Good for you I'll get it for my JTAG not paying $40 for a demo :)

purp13m0nk3y3714d ago

I hope they include Ground Zeros as part of the Phantom Pain anyway. That way people who hold out for the full release don't miss out on the prologue.

But I gotta say I agree with zod. I'm stoked we get to play a sneaky peek ahead of the full game. The price is a little steep, but you don't HAVE to buy it.

It also give Hideo an excellent opportunity to gather some feed back from fans. He can use this info to improve/tweak the Phantom Pain if there are any major gripes or problems with Ground Zeros.

PurpatraitorMGS3714d ago

People can keep complaining about the price but ive waited 6 years for another MGS...

So i guess im trying to say....

Kojima please take my money XD

sigfredod3714d ago

Of course not, doný forget that initially GZ was going to be on the same disc than TPP, until they decided to do it stand alone

Now we'll have to see how much the Master Collection will add to those numbers.

Number1TailzFan176d ago

Too bad it was a lazy release. They could've updated the visuals and everything. Missed opportunity.

Stanjara176d ago

...and yet, they couldn't give more respect and effort into the collection.
What a terrible company.

Minute Man 721176d ago (Edited 176d ago )

Are they counting every game?

Edit: they did

Nyxus176d ago

Yes, these are total lifetime sales of the entire series.

ApocalypseShadow176d ago

.... mostly with the help of PlayStation.

Yea I don’t get why they’re allowing old reviews to be posted here. Someone did one on Soul Reaver and I got so excited thinking there was some stealth release of an HD Remaster, but no… it’s just someone who had a slow day posted an old review…

Cacabunga192d ago

I liked the game but for me it felt somehow like a military simulator rather than a proper MGS.. i got bored of that

micdagoat19192d ago

I do wish they would remaster all the soul reavers

micdagoat19192d ago

it was done this morning though

goldwyncq192d ago

The author was in a coma for 9 years and didn't get to play the game when it released.

Chocoburger192d ago

This review arrived just in time for launch. Perfect timing!

RupeeHoarder192d ago

Amazing how bad this game looks already. We keep acting like this gen doesn't feel like an update but I think we're starting to see it.

YourMommySpoils192d ago

Looks better than Starfield, Cyberpunk and most recent games out. Still fine.

RupeeHoarder192d ago

It most certainly does not lol.

andy85192d ago

Have you player Cyberpunk since the first day? It's absolutely stunning now

One of the worst games ever made. Absolute overhyped trash!

Snowb420192d ago

The gameplay was great. It was the tacked on open world and repetitive missions that messed the game up.

Shane Kim192d ago

The game started really strong in that hospital, but after a couple of hours I wondered if it was even an mgs game I was playing.

KyRo191d ago

The hospital section was the only bit that felt like a MGS game.

MGS4 was the ending for me. I totally ignore the fact 5 exists. It didn't need to exist tbh
