Introduction, setup, requirements

Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes (MGS V: GZ) makes its debut on PC today, marking the third Windows release for the stealth series, following the original Metal Gear Solid in 2000 and the more recent Metal Gear Rising Revengeance (our tech review on that here). GZ is the prologue to the forthcoming release of MGS V: Phantom Pain, and serves as a great tech showcase for Konami's impressive Fox engine.
