DTOID: "While Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain isn't an insignificant time sucker as is, it did launch missing its competitive online multiplayer component, Metal Gear Online, which was delayed until October 6 on consoles and January 2016 on PC."

GR: "Metal Gear Solid 5 isn't just a stellar free-form stealth-action game; it's also one hell of a military base management sim. It makes sense - as Big Boss and leader of the Diamond Dogs, it's up to you to manage the development of your home, Mother Base, as well as the staff that runs it. It's a lot to take in at first, but it's not as complicated as you think; most of your day-to-day operations are handled through your iDroid, and happen in the background while you play."

The end of an era has finally arrived, and with Hideo Kojima still at the top of his game, The Phantom Pain is nothing short of spectacular.

Robert from DJP writes "The great Hideo Kojima/Konami have released the final instalment in the Metal Gear Solid franchise, Metal Gear Solid: The Phantom Pain, set nine years after the events of Ground Zero. You awake from a coma to find out that the events of ground zero left you with some pretty big physical and emotional scars."

GR: "72 seconds. At first, it feels like a mistake. There's no reason why it takes so long to drive between Mother Base platforms. Or why a game defined by its freedom is forcing you to travel in a straight line. There's no scenery, no incoming calls, no priorities to juggle apart from listen to one of the game's audio tapes. A tape that lasts 69 seconds. Damn. MGS5 is a game so balanced, sublimely authored and nuanced, even its mistakes are calculated; gifting you unprecedented freedom, but unafraid to limit your options to create powerful moments of introspection."

To many, videogames are a kind of medicine. Ive read stories about people immersing themselves in Metal Gear Solid to get themselves through a bereavement, obsessing over grindy MMOs to help deal with the directionless unease of unemployment, or revisiting childhood favourites to find an emotional anchor during traumatic life transitions. Ive read those stories, encouraged by the apparent restorative properties gamers have found in the medium but Ive never really identified with them.
