Today Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain is arguably the most talked-about video game sites around the world: not only the early reviews suggest a true masterpiece with ratings that stood firmly between 9 and 10, but also the recent news about microtransactions is creating a fierce debate among fans. Konami is desired but scurry for cover, explaining that things are not exactly as told by Gamespot.

The Konami producer Ken-Ichiro Imaizumi has explained on Twitter that the MB Coins, the currency of the game that we will need to start playing in multiplayer, you will still be playing guadagnabile, completing the campaign missions and in other ways.

Those who do not want to resort to additional charges may then earn the MB Coins, but obviously remains to be checked as this will be easy and, anyway, what kind of competitive advantage have those who choose to buy with their own money. The microtransactions are not necessarily a bad thing, but allow players to "buy" the superiority in multiplayer is definitely the wrong way to implement them: we hope that this is not the case in Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain and we await further clarification from the Japanese, who will shoot with the usual promptness.
