The ending to Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain has been rather divisive, to say the least. But here's why you shouldn't hate on it too much.
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
Well if this indeed is the last one , how about a bundle contain all MGS games in one collection . Now that would be a great send off .

It was a terrible ending and there's no way to justify answering why Big Boss was still alive in Metal Gear 2 was worth paying $60 for. We never saw the creation of Zanzibar Land or why and how Big Boss became evil.
Instead we got a terrible self insert character, which explains lack of dialogue for "Venom Snake", and an awful "twist". Then you have those idiots that try to justify the ending by saying well you know I've played the series for [insert amount of years here] so in a way I felt like I was Big Boss the whole time.
Yeah the true fans didn't get the ending we wanted but its still an amazing game and the ending isn't bad its just not what we wanted. Still, it has amazing gameplay and is definitely one of the best stealth/TPS/Action games ever.
The game is also technically perfect aswell, runs at 1080p/60fps/Openworld pretty much no bugs what so ever except the save glitch witch Konami were kind enough to send a PSA about.
"Metal Gear Solid V's Ending Was Actually a Great Sendoff for the Series"
No It was not...
1 hideo kojima stated hes fav character is gray fox YET gray fox didn't even appear in the game didn't even mention the name..
2. Solid snake was didn't appear in the game
3. Liquid snake have too small time in the game.
4. the after credits didn't said what happened with Solid Snake/Otacon after mgs4.
5. Big boss was never evil, and hell even major zero is good guy.. listen the tapes... the real evil was Donald Anderson and para medic.
I'm a BIG fan of the game but I wanted more, I'm a little disappointed.
the game focuses too much to quiet and the idiot parasites/zombie thing. Cant fucking believe this is the LAST Metal Gear Solid game! from kojima.
