MGS: Ground Zeros 1080p PS4, 720p X1, sub 720 PS3/360

I bought MGS3 last year maybe and only played it until right after beating The End and then got burned out. I'm thinking of just reading a synopsis on the game and then going to MGS4.

A demo covering and letting gamers experience new gameplay mechanics but it holds content crucial to the storyline ... So it's a must

Can it really be considered a demo if its not part of the full games gameplay though?
Did gamestop break streetdate?

The raiden mission is exclusive to Xbox one. I'm sure they'll release both DLCs for both consoles in the future though.

So the lazy devs made an extra mission? Pretty much goes against the whole lazy tag no?
 
Tempted to get this, but will probably wait till sometime after I'm done with Infamous. Does look really good though.

No, because the game on Xbox isn't 1080p :txbrolleyes:
After MGS3 and heck, even MGS4, they should be called anything but lazy.
 
It's been so long since MGS4. Getting that itch.
 
"1 anonymous dev who is evidently some inexperienced indie dev somehow is being treated as more credible than actual devs, even industry legends like Kojima and Carmack. Unbelievable."

I wonder what your leader astro would think of "lazy dev" kojima now.

"But to be fair, why should Kojima or Carmack be taken seriously when they can't even get it right that the PS4 is 50% faster, when even anonymous indie devs know that?"

One giant ignorant fanboy-sized serving of crow for you, hrudey.

Hell this entire thread is a massive mountain of ignorant, wrong, delusional crow:

Reviews are up? I refuse to buy a game these days before seeing review scores.

Some quotes from the reviews above:

IGN :

As Metal Gear games go, Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes is a stripped down affair. It avoids lengthy cutscenes, climactic boss fights, and the usual frayed and tangled plot strands in favour of smart, tactical gameplay. While its central campaign is indeed as short as you might’ve heard at around two hours, its multitude of options make for an engaging and tense experience that encourages replayability for hours afterward. .

Gamespot:

It may only take you an hour or two to finish the main objective, but the game doesn't totally end there. In addition to filling in some of the gaps between Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker and the Phantom Pain, Ground Zeroes introduces a new stealth system and an open-world format that's perfect for experimentation. Even though you're prepared for the next chapter, what's the rush? After the credits roll on the main mission and a handful of side activities unlock, the best part of Ground Zeroes is just getting started. With a dearth of secrets to find, and new challenges to master, chasing the endgame will keep you entertained for hours on end.

Joystiq:

The undoubtable quality of Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes feels carved from a bigger, better game, and perhaps that makes it a better showcase for players who don't know their Snakes from their Otacons. Too good to be a cash-in, too calculated to be satisfying and too intriguing to spurn, Ground Zeroes is a fiscal test of patience. If you can't wait for the next stage of Metal Gear Solid, I'm afraid you'll leave this about the same as you went in.

It's not a demo, this is the prequel to the Phantom Pain, picked up my copy earlier at Targrt but work calls so no time to play it yet.
 
I will try the Game on Hard with no slow mo and everything turned off. Who wants to see it?! I'll be aiming for Rank S on one Go... Gameplay vid will be posted later!
 
So the game inspired me to play through Snake Eater again, loving it in HD, will play Peace Walker after never played that one.
 
The last MGS I played was MSG 2.

As a military guy, the over the top, 'Fantasy anime' enemies in a military game turned me off in later series. MGS 1 & 2 have them as well, but not as over the top I guess.
 
I noticed one extra effect on the PS4 version that the X1 lacked. When Snake gets into that brown vehicle on the PS4 there are mud clumps on the tire and it also looks like the tires are spinning in the mud a little bit. On X1 the tire is cleaner and doesn't seem to be affected by the mud.
