Popoptiq: Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain opens with an incredible hour long escape from an under attack hospital that is one of the most exciting opening hours of any video game Ive played. The game ends with a similar mission that is at once confusing, repetitive, boring and anticlimactic. Nothing sums up the final Metal Gear Solid game quite as succinctly as the bookending missions do. Its beautiful, crass, innovative, rote, clever, stupid, polished, and unfinished. This game, more than anything else so far, is the most compelling piece of evidence as to why Hideo Kojima and Konami had their public falling out throughout 2015. The game is a wonderful, ungodly mess; an $80 million game that probably needed a few million more throwing at it to get it ready for release, which presumably, Konami were unwilling to do. Its a disappointing ending for the long running series, that is also one of the best games of the year. Confused? Well, its Metal Gear, after all.

GameInformer: "Snake can wear a variety of different outfits in Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, but one of the options sadly isn't Quiet's scantily clad attire. Artist Anne Pogoda gives us a good look at what that outfit might look like on Snake. Hideo Kojima said Quiet's outfit was created to sell more action figures, and, well, he's right I would buy an action figure of Snake rocking this look."

There are few video game franchises out there where the creators name resounds just as loud if not louder than the series themselves. Profiles such as Shigeru Miyamoto, Gabe Newell, Markus Notch Persson and of course Hideo Kojima are individuals well known throughout the industry for some of the most iconic video game titles to ever grace our glowing screens. So when one particular designers name was suddenly absent on upcoming promotional pieces we all got a little suspicious about the outcome Kojimas latest project. Now thankfully Whistler can dispel most of anxiousness and assure you that Hideo Kojimas swan song with Konami is one of utmost excellence and craftsmanship.

MWEB GameZone writes: "It's hard to believe the game exists, given what it set out to achieve what it accomplished. Its a beautiful, incredible, weird, powerful, and proudly silly gaming experience - in other words, a Hideo Kojima game. It is, without a doubt, one of the greatest games ever made. However, some aspects of it incredibly awful, taxing or just baffling. For many players, these criticisms could be deal-breakers in terms of whether to spend full AAA game price."

GS:" Metal Gear Solid 5 The Phantom Pain has already been released in all regions but this doesn't mean that the stealth game developed by Hideo Kojima and his team is going to miss this year's Tokyo Game Show. The new iteration of Metal Gear Online, included in The Phantom Pain, has yet to launch and Konami will show more of it in the next few days."
