Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain

I've had the collectors edition ordered since day one. I can't wait

My main concern with this game having seen much of the gameplay footage is that it'll end up more like Peace Walker than anything else; individual, do-as-you-please missions that are tied together with some narrative in-between, and to me that simply isn't MGS. I'm trying to work out how they're going to deliver a decent storyline with the trademark assortment of characters when you can seemingly choose every aspect of the missions you take on e.g. partner (human, dog, robot), weapons and even the character you play as.

Maybe I've missed some crucial point but it just has me a bit worried. Still got my snake-arm edition pre-ordered though, did want the PS4 to go with it but it's a bit too pricey.

5 weeks too long

Forgot all about this, looks like the PS4 version is the one to get this time around?

I've been waiting for a game to finally drag me away from destiny, this should be it!

no real way to tell, Ground Zeroes was about an hour for the main game, yet I ended up playing it for around 20hr, plenty of re-playability..

Same here. I played the hell out of all of those different scenarios. I can only imagine that the full game is similarly set up. I'm fully expecting more than 20 hours.

I'd love one, but it's money I can put towards a new TV instead.

Looking forward for release, day 1 buy for me and it will be for the PS4 even though i have a really capable gaming PC - MGS doesn't feel right if not on a Sony console.
