Okay, let's get something out the way: Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes, no matter how good it is, was not worth the $40, £30, or whatever your national equivalent price-point was upon first release. Featuring a main mission that could be completed in about 90 minutes (or 8, if you know what you're doing), and only a smattering of side-quests to complete, Kojima's prologue simply lacked the content you'd expect from a release at that price.

But picking it up with a heavy discount (or even free, if you were lucky enough to catch it last month on PS Plus), then Ground Zeroes has the potential to reward you with one of the most deep and satisfying stealth experiences on next gen consoles.

Although there isn't much content included as previously stated, the small open world map is so dense with details and secrets ready to be found in every nook and cranny that the main mission of the campaign actually becomes incredibly replayable, especially for hardcore fans of the series.
