I'm surprised there's no thread for this yet!

So this game has been announced as a prequel to Metal Gear Solid 5.

Big Boss is back. The enemy is a man with a burned face (no Burnt Face Man jokes, please) in a team that seems to be called XOF (FOX backwards)

Thoughts/Opinions? Is this game one step too far? Or is this the Metal Gear fix that you've been waiting for?

(Note, that the credits show that it will be compatible with Playstation 3 and X-Box 360. Kojima confirmed that it's for current gen platforms, but can scale to next-gen)
