As if the game did not have enough reasons to continually justify its price, it was revealed today that a YouTuber by the name of Ian Higton completed Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes in just ten minutes. It means to be said however that this time did include skipping all side missions and cut scenes. An average player doing all that can be seen will more likely take around two hours to complete the game.
Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes is a prologue to the upcoming game Metal Gear Solid 5: Phantom Pain. The game has been criticized at length as a being a cash in for a tech demo, although the developers insist otherwise. The game costs $30 for what is being said as having two hours in content, although that certainly varies by player as seen by what Higton was able to do.
Konami dropped the price of the game by $10 dollars last month, presumably due to consumer feedback. They also announced that players who buy the first run of Ground Zeroes will receive exclusive content for Phantom Pain when it releases.
Will exclusive content, a price reduction and a hint of whats to come in upcoming Phantom Pain be enough for you to spend $30 on a game that can be completed in 10 minutes? Let us know if you are excited about Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes in the comments below!
