We need more games like this.. 

Metal Gear Solid is the greatest gaming franchise for me. It is not only a game with gameplay, it is one with reality engraved into its amazing storytelling.

This game is damn near 10 years old, without raytracing. Looks and runs way better than most recent releases.

It's still beyond me how people disliked MGSV. I thought it was a masterpiece when i first beat it nearly a decade ago and i still think so today.

That uncut long take opening cutscene that transitions smoothly to gameplay…. I was so in awe the first time I played this game. Still so cool

This game is almost a decade old and still look incredibly good like I used to played back then. Such a timeless masterpiece. Like you said Hollow... We need more games like this.

These MGS games have always been way ahead. Incredible details and gameplay

The running sound is so badass, exactly like a soldier running with full gear. Gonna play this again someday. This game was a trailer of FOX Engine before MSG V Phantom Pain.

Damn, visually this game still looks amazing today. Games like this give us hope and remind us what big budget studio games can actually be capable of if passion comes before profit.

MGS is of my all-time favorite video game franchises. Happy to see Hollow playing it. 💯🔥🔥🔥

I was hoping we get a full series of this game. The recent uploads have been a total blast seeing you revisit some older games in general. Thanks Hollow and keep up the amazing work!😎🤘🏼🔥

Rule no.1 if you're a stealth soldier: *Don't wear a Shiny ass latex gimp suit. It be reflectin' light at all angles gon get ya busted!*

this game is still unmatched in its stealth mechanics and gameplay, the level is amazing and graphically it still holds up

Kept you waiting huh? The first time I saw that it was nothing but chills. Metal gear is top tier, it doesn't get any better.

I’m still lost as to why he never did a full playthrough this game is dope 🔥

I don't know if anybody remembers, but in almost any Base you go deep undercover to complete your mission ? as I remember well, you have the option to take out the lights first and cameras with your silencer gun . and make your mission lot easier and take out your enemy in the dark and hide the bodys and use allot of buildings to crawl under to take out unsuspecting soldiers. remember that Metal Gear is a tactical espionage game that focuses on stealth and strategy . kind of like The Hitman game too. the more you learn certain skills weapons and techniques while being patient the better prepared you'll be to neutralize your enemy. and the more fun it will be acting like a shadow or phantom in the dark . and get better ranking points by the end of your mission....😄been a fan of Metal gear since 1987.

MGS is my favorite franchise 🧡. I love MGSV so much, the intro to GZ is still maybe the best ever and that stealth gameplay is perfection. Can't believe it's almost 10 years since GZ released though. Awesome to see you play this!!!

The level design of Camp Omega is something you won't find in any game period, It's one of the greatest levels in stealth games and so satisfying to sneak around, MGSV Ground Zeroes got a lot of flak for how short it is but it has a good amount of side ops and a pretty cool easter egg, The graphics are also amazing and yet the game runs on such weak piece of hardware for its PC port it's astonishing, i ran that game on my old and weak laptop back in the day and got playable enough framerate and it was amazing running a relatively new game on my laptop that looked so good, and the fact it's even on PS3 makes it even more awesome since you can play the entire franchise on a single console (although probably not the best place to experience MGSV, it's great to have the option), I wish Kojima had made an MGS game like Ground Zeroes but much expanded and more in its direction, Though i also love The Phantom Pain but we all know what happened with that game thanks to Konami.

the coolest way i found to infiltrate the compound was by hiding in one of those trucks and letting the guys drive me right in lol

The game is perfectly optimized, so broad audience could feel the atmosphere and everything that this games has.

Agreed. The stealth genre is scarce. This game was amazing. Splinter cell is good too...we definitely need games like this!

That opening is legendary

Best part is how brilliantly this game is optimised. It's a shame that games nowadays are not optimised and crash even at the highest configuration

omg just as i was looking for some of your content to watch while working, you upload!! this is perfect!!

I am back into gaming after being away for 40 years. One of my ex-students has guided me in picking games. First game was Hogwarts Legacy, then RDR2, followed by Ghost of Tsushima. She knows I like stealth introduced me to Metal Gear Solid and I am in heaven. Stealth galore!

i recently played ground zero with an S rank on all the mistons after a few tries and now starting the phantom pain. Very very cool game so far and unique. Never played a lot of stealth games. And also the cool thing is this games require skill. It's not your average shooter game.

People can harp on plot, or lack of. But Ground Zeros / Phantom Pain absolutely nailed its gameplay loop. Quite literally has some of the best & tightest gameplay you'll ever play in any game.

MGSV is still the industry standard for stealth games. I remember doing minimalist runs on GZ and I was shocked at not only the variability of approach, but how well designed each approach was. A recent game that does this is the brilliant RE4 remake. It's mechanically fairly detailed and has excellent AI. The only caveat that RE4 gets right, is that the balancing could've used improvement in GZ and TPP. The shooting controls and mechanics were too stock standard, and made the game too easy to approach that way. I personally always used stealth, but it was self imposed. Nonetheless, MGSV and RE4 are at the top of the pile in terms of game design for their genres, and we absolutely need more like them.

I love metal gear solid. Used to play it with my big cousin when I was a kid. 😩❤️

11.01 eyes rolled back toes curled

This game is amazing, I hadn't played it since release, then fell off for some unknown reason, played through the whole MGS series and ended with this one, and oh boy is it still fantastic.

This is my favorite series ever! Been playing since mgs1! Im even meeting Solid snake himself tomorrow im so hyped it's such a good time to be a mgs fan 😁😁

this is only the prequel to MGS V, one of the most amazing games i ever played

Wow!! It’s crazy how good this game looks! Insane. After almost 10 years bring back memories. 🔥🔥 Keep it up Hollow. 🤘🏻

Ground Zeros had one of the most incredible openings in a game

Thank you Hollow for always bringing us the best playthroughs

Metal Gear Solid Ground Zero really got to me with it's Audio Logs you collect and they treated Kids and Female prisoners truly Hideo Kojima best works.

I don’t know if you played Peace Walker but it’s the most important one for this game’s story

The enemy AI in this game is unimaginable. Top notch ❤

This is one of the best looking intro scenes ive ever seen. I remember getting ripped off and thought this was a full game

Awesome games. Great follow up to final fantasy in terms of maturity and cut scene heavy story oriented game. A favourite amongst many including myself. 👌

"Any quick readers among Us viewers?!" 1:24:24

Yes, he need more games like this...i fully understand that.

my dad loves this series, he STILL plays this game

I still get glimpses of this game in my dreams. That is how much I used love playing this ❤

Is it just me or does Hollow look and sound like Drake😂😂😂

The reason we don't have more games like this and why it still looks this good is because it's made by Kojima, Hes the Goat of all Devs. He knows how to maximize the consol in ways most dont. Also, you gotta play Metal Gear solid 4 Because it reveals who the patriots are which are referenced in 5

5 and 3 are my all time favorites. I am surprised with how amazing the quality of 5 is even today. :3

This game is soooo memorable for me because I was able to run this in max setting in my potato pc 🤣 golden memories

Thanks Hollow, because of you I got the itch to go back and play ground zeroes to see how well it holds up. Finished it an hour last night and now ready to repurchase the phantom pain!

This is peak stealth game ever.

People talk so much shit about metal gear but metal gear pioneered most of the stealth genres today and helped carry Sony in its beginning phases. Put some respect on kojima !

"You have grenades!" 55:25

The literal image of “they don’t make ‘em how they used to”

I absolutely love stealth and in my opinion, this is the only game that gets it right. Playing it was heaven to me.

"You get extra points for that too!" 33:12

This video was insane! Can’t believe you played this game after all this time. You really know what your subscribers want to see😅

Agreed! MGS games are truly unmatched. Need more of MGS series to continue.

This game is an utter masterpiece. I couldn’t believe how many people disliked it. That’s so odd.

The hype when this game released. Because you knew the final chapter was just a year away. Don't think i've ever been this hyped for any game before.

I hope this channel never ends and keeps spreading happiness.❤😊 Whoever is reading this comment, I wish you success, health, love and happiness

Man this means a lot to me. I hope you play not just ground zeros but Phantom Pain as a whole. Always take notice of the soldiers that salute you and the ones that don't. Cutscene or not. What you use to fight soldiers with or sneak by them with. Always notice Kojimas work and how it goes unrecognized. Notice how proper he is, but at the same time perverted. This game was never supposed to be made but I'm glad it was. It's all a inderect visual of how Konami treated Kojima just before they forced him to resign. Kojima had a sad MGS end story but he will move on to creat the most insane and beautiful story driven games ever made. He might not win awards for it but they will never go un noticed.

I started replaying MGS5 yesterday. MGS4 may be my favorite game ever. Burning Crusades was my favorite gaming experience (killed Illidan before nerf).

This was my first MGS game and I loved it a lot more than I ever expected. Can’t wait for the release of the collection of games on PC too!

0:00 I'll recognize that chopper sound anytime, anywhere

I am really hoping they expand on 5. I just played it all the way through again and I wanted more missions. The last 10 missions were just duplicates. They could add a huge world and keep the exact same system. Building up mother base was so unbelievably satisfying and it drove you to keep playing even after you beat the game. I spent all day trying to get S soldiers.

MSG brings back the kid nostalgia for me… Snake? Snnaakkkeeeee! PS1 days… I’m 30 🤣

Nothing comes close to this game bro..

this game run smoothly even on low end pc, but still it has an amazing graphic.. i remember my pc cant even run dragon age but it run this very smoothly

Metal Gear Zeroes and Phantom Pain are right up there with my favourite games ever.I could name a dozen reasons but one that stands out is the incredible intuitive controls,so many games even great ones can be frustrating, this games handling is in my opinion the best ever😮🎉I would be interested in any recommendations for games like this I may have missed. Thank you 🙏 nice video .

One of the greatest, most rewarding and replayable games of the era. MGSV is a masterpiece.

I’m so excited for the Metal Gear Solid master collection. Ground Zeroes was my first MGS game and I’ve only played that and TPP

u look like drake

FYI: when snake is looking for paz's pulse your joystick will vibrate according her pulse.

It’s so sad that they had all the elements to make one of the best games of all time and somehow botched it. Every time I see the amazing gameplay I can’t believe they didn’t deliver a cohesive and amazing story to go with it. It still creates fantastic emotions but every moment I am reminded of what it could have been

Metal Gear Solid & Assassin Creed My life right there

Who's still watching in 2024😄

Bro finally, I’ve been waiting for you to play any of the MGS’s play 4 and snake eater next!!!!!!

One of the best games in the world. I grew up with MGS in my early teens. My first Playstation game was MSG 1 and Tekken 3. Can't wait for the snake eater remake.

My cousin and I - to this day - quote MGS 1,2,3,3 and phantom pain. THE LA LEE LOO LEH LO??!!

I was just playing this earlier didn’t expect you to upload this of all games its a masterpiece just like the rest of the MGS series

Got them both on sale for like $5 a couple months ago. One of the best looking games I've played...ever. Nice upload bro 🤜🤛

MGS will always be my fav game, i remember playing the ps1 game then first game got mgs2 on ps2 and played for a while weekend straight, one of my best gaming memories

I think MGS, and Hitman 1-3 (the open world ones) are the best stealth games in video game history. Splinter cell, Dishonored 2, and AC are fun too, but MGS, and Hitman are on another level.

I can’t wait tell the collection drops in October 🔥

It's amazing to see how much they refined from this game to prepare for Phantom Pain. Love the playthrough btw!

The intro to mgs5 is the greatest videogame intro ever!

“Where do you want me to put this guy, in my mouth?” I lol’ed at that 😂😂😂

I miss how closed off the world felt while also feeling completely free to walk around the earlier mgs games

Metal gear solid vi needs to happen. Afghanistan, CCCP Soviet Union, USA and other countries too, bigger open world gameplay using ps5 to full potential

Making a good looking game is not a big thing but optimising to this level is what makes metal gear so amazing and fun to play i wish game dev focused more on game optimization like konami❤

im 22 right now, when i first bought phantom pain, back in 2017 i believe, i didnt really like it, i thought to myself "this isnt metal gear... what is this?" and after the first 3 missions i uninstalled it, and a couple of weeks ago my brother wanted to get into metal gear because of the hype of raiden being a ninja, and i told him he'd have to play MGS3 first, then MGS, 2 and 4... and it sparked my interest in the game again, so i gave it another try... and 16% missions completed in i can definitely say that it is the best game i've ever played, from the stealth, to the buddy system, to the mother base, to the music cassette tapes... no other game has made me smile/feel like this in a very very long time... and i honestly dont want to finish it because i know that when i do, i wont feel the same

Kojima and Konami working together bringing us Metal Gear Solid was the greatest feat any humans have collectively made together. Nothing will ever beat it no matter what. They always outdo themselves and go beyond in their storytelling. Thanks Kojima! I hope the new MGS from here on out at least keeps the Kojima spirit alive and inspiration. Thanks for putting MGSV out there to those who may not have had the pleasure. I have been playing Sniper Elite 5 because the controls are similar and you can choose how you play each map; like Snake or just spy it up and mix both action and stealth. We need more games like MGS that gets you lost into the gameplay and story alike and not one or the other.

so true. This is top on my favourite game list. I tried searching for game like metal gear 5 on steam but alas I could not find any

I really liked Ground Zeroes. It’s a shame the main game of MGS5 didn’t give me the same vibe though, and I didn’t enjoy it as much. I guess I just didn’t like replaying big open area maps and preferred the gritty more complex smaller map of GZ.

When they release the other games in that package please play it Hollow. I’m not sure if you’ve ever played it but it would be so cool to see you play it dude :)

spoilers ahead for those who haven't played the phantom pain: in MGSV: The Phantom Pain, you don't play as big boss, but you actually play as the medic in the chopper at the ending of this game that thinks he is big boss himself. We of course won't find out until the very end of the phantom pain, but it's very unexpected to see a character that we never see before being the main protagonist for a game as big as MGSV TPP. This is why i love kojima and the metal gear franchise. I'm just happy we are getting a remake for MGS3 which is arguably the best MGS game of all time, even though i think kojima won't be involved in the making of the remake.

MGS and Splinter Cell, the glory days of stealth gaming... how I miss them

Nice to see this. I'm currently doing a big boss playthrough of MGS2 since it is the only one I've never big boss'd. Glad to see it get some love.

This was, by and large, the best stealth game. In many a regard still is to day and Ground Zeroes was really above and beyond. I´ve played it so many times over and it still ticks all the boxes. MGSV is great in total, but in reality, G.S. was quite amazing on its own.

I really wish they would go back and strip MGS1 and remake it from the ground up - its like printing money and such classics deserve that love.
