Does the game even make sense anymore? No but Kojima has another classic on his hands. Online play makes this game a 10/10 for me

If you've never played a MGS game you won't understand the story but if you have then it's a very fitting ending to a great saga.

Found the game some what repetitive and boring. Really missed a more robust story. Game did not live up to previous mgs games, certainly not the best mgs game of the series. Long live kojima production.

Gameplay is fantastic! Graphics are beautiful and plays super smooth. Story is good, but goes off from traditional American espionage and delves into the paranormal. I personally didn't care for that aspect but everything else made up for it and it is a metal gear game so that was to be expected. Very happy with purchase.

If you're a serious gamer and want to get lost in a game for endless hours this is a great game to go to. Seeking out all accessories, secrets, and accomplishments is very fulfilling. Game play builds on prior Metal Gear Solid games but is improved. I felt unstoppable as I gathered the various tools available. Highly recommend!

It's a shame that Konami was stupid enough to fire Kojima, but this makes for a phenomenal ending to the MGS saga. I loved it!

Great game to add to the Metal Gear series. If you have been playing them from the start or just starting it is worth buying.

I have played all of the previous Metal Gear games and can say that this is probably the best one. All of the control problems are gone. It almost makes the game too easy but there is still plenty of challenge to be found.
Well over a hundred hours of gameplay, and that doesn't even count the online features. Fantastic game.

By far the most expansive and intelligent Metal Gear Solid game yet. Don't need any previous playing experience to enjoy it.

It's only good but I know people where hype about this game but for me not really. It has online multiplayer but haven't tried yet and probably will not. Graphic was about average . But I'll still recommend this game for people that like mgs trilogy

If you are a metal gear fan this is the title to get for your new console. It's open ended and the online play is stellar.

Gameplay is top notch, Narrative is disjointed.

Kojima opted to, either out of necessity or choice, excerpt much of the story and narrative into "tapes" you listen to separately. This leads to a disorienting story. Search on youtube for mission 51 for additional story after you finish the game.

Hideo Kojima has managed to raise the bar in cinematic storytelling once again. I can't wait for the next... Oh yeah... :(

Gameplay wise it might be the greatest game ever made. I play MGS for the story and this one leaves a lot to be desired, especially when a third of the game is removed for no reason whatsoever.
