Also before moving out to MGSV, which I have not played before, I checked out Peace Walker as it's included in the HD collection I played 2 and 2 on this time. Apparently some of the characters here are relevant in V too.

My first impression is alright but not fantastic. It's certainly not I game I'll play through in the same way as the first four. I know it's a PSP game originally and it's pretty clear it was made for that. The mission system is a bit of a drag if you just want to play through, but it would be a good game to have handheld and play one or two missions of every now and then. If you missed gameplay in the fourth, then this is great, because it's just more of that really. I'm not certain I'll bother going through all Extra Ops, since there are apparently about four times as many as there are Main Ops, but I plan on finishing the Main Ops.

As for the story, I'm not that invested, really just side stuff Big Boss was doing these years and no way The Boss is alive lol. It's fun to see Miller actually being Miller and not Liquid in disguise for the first time since Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake (unless he was in Portable Ops, which I do not own and have no intention of getting).

Best part of the game some missions in (and I never thought I'd ever say this about anything) was the tutorial. That was peak Metal Gear Solid fourth wall breaking.
