Metal Gear Solid 5 dev defends Ground Zeroes length

they should rename it to Metal Gear Solid 5:Phantom Pain DLC

I don't pay $40 for a movie ticket...

2 hours of gameplay should be $15 at most.

At least the price reflects, somewhat, the approximate length. But still, around two hours? I'd like to ask, "why bother?", and just skip straight to Phantom Pain.

So Let me see if I can get this math correct

If you're someone who gets the $40 version and then end uo buying MGS 5 Phantom pain for $60 whenever that comes out it means you've essentially spent $100 on the game.....and that's not even factoring how much it will be in total once dlcs starting coming out for the game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love my metal gear solid and all but damn...... I'm not supporting this game if that's how they wanna roll. **** that shit

So the PS4 version will look a little better than the Xbox One version? No reason to get mad about it. What were people expecting?

Damn Facebookers. As if the comment section wasn't bad enough.

Lol of course it'll look better on ps4

honestly i still think its a cash in. Im a huge MG fan and im not bought by this regardless of length of the game, price etc etc. Something crys ''Cash-In'' about this.

im sure many others would of prefer to wait for a FULL blown game instead of buying this for a back story then buy the full game, I think i will wait till this is included in a special package or something but i cant see my buying this, yet. I can wait. Its MG for crying out loud. we ALWAYS wait for the games lol.

so the video "clip" in this article is almost the whole game. nice...no need to buy it now.

Great game or not, I'm not paying $10 per hour of playtime.

I'll wait for the inevitable GZ/PP special edition

It's too expensive for two hours, but the worst part is it's setting a horrible precedent by giving developers another excuse to shorten games and start charging for demos.

This isn't a stand alone game though, this is a portion of a story driven game that has been removed and is being sold to us at an inflated price.

It took me around 8 hours on normal difficulty. That game is hard.

Everybody knows this is a prequel for the real game right. Just wait till MGS5 comes out, if you don't want to play this. Simple solution.

Geeze I remember I sunk about 300+ hours into peace walker...

Download the game on the ps3, and all will be well. At least that's what im going to do.

Facebook eruption!!! Storys dead.

Seriously? Everybody here thinks video games are worth less than movies?

the arrogance of stating the game is as good as journey at double the price before release date...

Is he seriously name dropping Voltaire's Candide to gamers? FYI You'd be much better off using Conrad's 100 or so page heart of darkness, seeing as how that's most video games' go too literature inspiration... By the way, yes I am pissed about David Hayter!

Give us a $30 Phantom Pain upgrade option and all will be well

They needed a real actor.

Ahh...Konami, have you learned nothing from the past? If you want to charge $40 for a two hour Metal Gear Solid demo, you have to package it for free with a mediocre, mindnumbingly dull action/mech game like Zone of the Enders so we can at least PRETEND we're getting a deal. You can't swing a dead nine-tailed fox in Japan without hitting a shitty action/mech game. Buy one out, slap a ZOE 3 sticker on it along with a $40 price tag, slip in a "free" copy of Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeros, and wait for the money to pour in!

Buying it day one.
