LOL. European reviews came out, tons of perfect scores. But the best one is games radar who explains they couldnt finish then game so they are not doing a review yet. They also said this:

Is MGS5 a fitting legacy to the series? I can't say… yet. Based on the UK boot camp, I know of only one reviewer (who was able to play for six days) who has seen enough of the game to deliver a meaningful perspective… and I can't even explain why for fear of spoilers. In my boot camp, reviewers were charging through missions wearing the chicken hat (which makes you invisible) almost completely ignoring Mother Base and all the side-ops in a race for the 'end'. Will it score high? I mean, duh, but I don't feel the boot camp was sufficient basis to offer my views on Kojima's intentions and MGS5's abiding legacy.

So people reviewing the game aren't even playing it correctly. Yeah I'll just make up my own mind on where it fits into the MGS hierarchy.

No wonder the reviews are worthless thus far.

Well if they got to play it properly they would have liked it more, so it should be getting 11s.

Don't be silly. It'd be getting at least 12s.

Basically this.


Review event? Nope, not even once.

And for the record I'm pretty sure the game is going to be excellent.

I'm not sure that trailer is all that spoilery.  I seem to remember tricks like that done in other MGS trailers to throw us off or that didn't turn out to be quite right.  How the hell do they explain the way Bb looks in 4?

Yeah it's just a metaphor. Still the other part was nuts, would have loved to see that in game.
