Not too story-heavy, an easy-to-walk-into Metal Gear game for newcomers to the series. Open world, exploration, customization, fun easter eggs; varying from most Metal Gear games, you are relatively free in your methods of attacking or defending locations and executing missions, giving a considerable amount of replay value. Contains somewhat intense situations, such as children in war zones, and ethical choices that will make you question yourself and where you stand. Au contraire, due to a lacking plot and a seemingly hollow protagnist, with other franchise characters not seeming as themselves, I would not call it a great 'Metal Gear game' necessarily, but an excellent game nonetheless. If only Konami didn't fire Kojima and it would be even bigger and better...
