Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain will be released on both, PS3 and PS4. Those who don’t have the luxury to upgrade to the PS4 have to settle with the PS3 version of the game. If you are curious to know the difference between both platforms, you can check out a detailed direct-feed screenshot comparison between the PS3 and PS4 version of the game in this article.
Whether it's showcasing damage realistically or simulating fractures and conditions, these games are worth checking out.
The Metal Gear series has sold 60.2 million copies, as of September 2023.
Too bad it was a lazy release. They could've updated the visuals and everything. Missed opportunity.
...and yet, they couldn't give more respect and effort into the collection.
What a terrible company.
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is another rollercoaster of a game in the Metal Gear Solid series. Here's what to expect and why you need to experience it.
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…
I liked the game but for me it felt somehow like a military simulator rather than a proper MGS.. i got bored of that
The author was in a coma for 9 years and didn't get to play the game when it released.
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.
Looks better than Starfield, Cyberpunk and most recent games out. Still fine.
The gameplay was great. It was the tacked on open world and repetitive missions that messed the game up.
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.
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
I'm really enjoying the game so far but one of my nitpicks is that Snakes beard looks too fuzzy and undetailed, especially since facial hair is looking incredibly detailed these days, it stands out and it's a little disappointing, but again I'm really nitpicking here lol.
From what I can see the PS4 has:
Better textures
Better AA
Better depth of field (more ability to apply focus/blur)
Better shadows
But all in all the PS3-version holds up really well. The PS4-version simply gives the game a more realistic tone.
Does anyone want to add something to this analysis?
So can't wait to play this!
I've done so well at keeping away from spoilers.
Thursday can't come soon enough.
very impressive ps3 screenshots. however its jsut screenshots and we dont know how well it runs in actual gameplay.
still impressive nonetheless.
In motion the PS3(and 360) versions look A LOT worse than the PS4( and xone) versions.
