CGM: When it comes to gameplay, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is undoubtedly the most polished and enjoyable entry in the series. Its a shame, however, that it entirely abandons the eccentricities, zaniness, and terrific storytelling that this franchise is known for. This doesnt feel like a Metal Gear game, but rather an entirely new project that series creator Hideo Kojima so obviously wanted to make. Its just simply called Metal Gear Solid.

Stu at Sushimonster85 writes 'Unless you have been living under a rock for the past couple of weeks, it has been impossible to ignore the release of Metal Gear Solid V. Hailed by many as one of the best games of recent years, and undoubtedly featuring the best pure gameplay found in the Metal Gear Solid series, it seems a fitting swan song for the man many consider to be gamings first/only Auteur. Indeed, only if you have been living under that same rock for six months now, the ugly (and very public) fallout between Metal Gear Solids creator Hideo Kojima, and Konami has gone hand in hand with final months of development, as well as the games release. So what next for the man who has had free run over his own multi-million dollar franchise? Aside from a long holiday, and tweeting about his latest Blu-ray purchases.'

For all the brilliance in Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain, there are certainly problems. Hideo Kojima's latest offers up open world gameplay of incredible intricacy and depth that creates exhilarating moments over and over again. It's all Kojima has wanted his series to be, but it is still far from a perfect game.

Metal Gear Solid V is a big, beautiful game that’s managed to garner quite a bit of high praise from critics and players alike. But while classic MGS DNA still pumps through its veins, Director Hideo Kojima and his team took a big risk and changed up the formula quite a bit in this outing. Thankfully, that risk paid off.

Rich at GameSpew writes: "Last Tuesday saw the release of what for many will probably be the game of the year, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. The latest entry in the highly regarded Metal Gear series, it was undoubtedly hyped beyond measure thanks to a constant barrage of media coverage about the game itself and the apparent fallout between its creator, Hideo Kojima, and his employer Konami. With mainstream press attending camps to review the game, before launch day it had already acquired a bewildering number of glowing reviews awarding the title 5/5 and 10/10 scores. Youd honestly believe it heralded a new age of videogames given the amount of praise bestowed upon it. Released on the same day, and therefore pretty much sent out to die, was a new game based on the Mad Max film franchise. Developed by Avalanche Studios of Just Cause fame, review copies for this title were sent out for the day of release, meaning that reviews trickled through shortly after its muted launch...
