Stealth Games

After 17 years and numerous times when he said he was finished with the series, legendary game maker Hideo Kojima has released his true swansong to the Metal Gear Solid franchise in what is likely going to be his magnum opus, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. Both controversy and a high level of expectations surround The Phantom Pain, as Kojima is expected to be leaving Konami after three decades of working there. Fortunately, The Phantom Pain shatters these expectations and transcends its circumstances through sheer gameplay alone. If Hideo Kojima really is leaving and never planning to revisit the Metal Gear series he started on the MSX2 back in 1987, then consider this the perfect way to say goodbye to the fans and the franchise.

The current-gen console war continues in Metal Gear Gear V: The Phantom Pain. Also, a secret final mission and ending cut from the game have been found.

The creator of the Metal Gear Solid series, Hideo Kojima, looks back at the impact his games have had on his coworkers and fans in a heartfelt debriefing video.

It's time to go back to Dunwall and become the supernatural/steampunk assassin Corvo Attano one more time in Dishonored Definitive Edition. As an enhanced version of the hit 2012 game for last-gen consoles, Dishonored brings back its unique take on stealth gameplay told through a first-person perspective. Obviously, this Definitive Edition launched to help get us hyped up for Dishonored 2, but there isn't much here that could be considered new when compared to its original release (especially in regards to the last-gen Game of the Year Edition). Nevertheless, there's still something that's remarkably satisfying about infiltrating an enemy compound with such a variety of ways in dispatching your enemies, whether you're using a crossbow, traps, your sword, your hands, magic or a legion of bloodthirsty rats.

With Metal Gear Solid 5: Ground Zeroes on its way, we would like to reminisce about the 10 Greatest Moments in Metal Gear Solid History. Even though Ground Zeroes acts a prologue to Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain, we would still like to refresh everyone on some of the most memorable scenes throughout the Metal Gear franchise before we play as Big Boss yet again. Be prepared for laughs, tears, bodies, boxes and bullets as we explore some of our favorite scenes starring Big Boss, Solid Snake and Raiden. The Metal Gear series taught us that when it comes to patriotism, espionage is a necessity. Nevertheless, there's no need for stealth when it comes to the 10 Greatest Moments in Metal Gear Solid History.

Nothing says welcome back to Dunwall like a launch trailer for the Definitive Edition of Dishonored.

Hideo Kojima says goodbye with his final trailer for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, and Metal Gear Sahelanthropus is officially a boy.

The episodic stealth game Republique is heading to PlayStation 4 next year in one grand, espionage-filled package.

Volume, the latest game by Thomas Was Alone creator Mike Bithell, takes typical top-down stealth gameplay, and mixes in its own artistic flare and characters. The result is a very well told story mired by repetitive gameplay. The foundation upon which the game’s mechanics are built is solid and it’s very fun to run through missions undetected, but it becomes less fun in extended play sessions.

We've got an official word on Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain's console display differences as well as the hardware requirements for its PC version.
