[quote]Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes is nearly upon us in North America and Europe – even though the street date was recently broken in the UAE and spoilers are freely available online. Premier Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu finally provided their review score of the game and it turns out to have scored 38 out of 40. [u][b]The reviews breakdown is 10/9/9/10 with four separate reviewers giving their take on the experience. Whichever way you look at it, Ground Zeroes is a 9+ experience.[/b] Some criticisms that have dogged the game including its play length – with the infamous report that the main campaign was only 2 hours long (since [b]debunked in recent impressions[/b]). Kojima for his part has stated that there are multiple ways to play and finish the game, with tons of secrets waiting for erstwhile players.[/u] Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes releases on March 18th in North America and March 20th in Europe for PS3, PS4, Xbox One and Xbox 360.[/quote] First review I've found so far of GZ and it is nearly a straight 10/10. The most important aspect of this game is replayability in the new open world that is brand new to the franchise. I've read in another article the game goes well above 8h of gameplay, which is nowadays your standard campaign length, but for half the price. But if you still think this is a ripoff, then you can wait until The Phantom Pain releases... in late 2015, early 2016 (as reported by some). I'm more than willing to pay 25 pounds for a top notch game that I know I will be putting in dozens upon dozens of hours into thanks to the many ways you can play through the missions. IMO, its price is justified. They could have put a full price tag, but didn't.
