MGS V: Ground Zeroes at Bafta Inside Gaming
The Bafta Gaming awards were held this week at the Tobacco Docks in Wapping, but before all the evening festivities, there was the Inside Gaming festival. Held in the very same halls the ceremonies would later take place in, a handful of yet to be released games were available to play by the public for the very first time, one of these games was Metal Gear Solid 5 Ground Zeroes.

Metal Gear has traditionally been about slowly stealthing your way through a level, the best players never even get spotted let alone set off an alert, but now you can sprint around, jump into a jeep and race about or get into a huge turret and blow people up if you'd rather play that way. The open world aspect really has changed everything about it, every single person I watched play (and I watched quite a few) all played the game completely different to how I did on my run through. I tried to sneak in but was spotted by a soldier in a guard tower, after trying to run away and hide, I realised the guards would actively follow the traces that I left behind, and with no cardboard box to hide in, they ended up finding me. That's where my time ran out, I'm thoroughly looking forward to playing the full game which is due to be released on PS3, PS4, Xbox One and Xbox 360 on March 21st. Look out for our review of the game in the coming weeks.
