Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain

While reactions to its story were mixed, Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain scores highly in the gameplay department. Having multiple points of entry for sneaking, utilizing AI companions to either snipe enemies from afar or provide fire support, and using the FULTON to send soldiers, materials and even animals to bolster Mother base rarely gets old. If experimenting in a stealth sandbox sounds like fun, then The Phantom Pain will keep you coming back again and again.
