MGS5 is about the last Xbox 360 game of note that I haven't played yet.

The gameplay looks like the kind of thing I'd enjoy, but I worry about being put off and constantly annoyed by the story as to be perfectly frank I generally dislike Kojima's writing and the way his games are often stuffed with cutscenes.

Am I likely to still be able to enjoy the game, or am I just going to be suffering through lengthy cutscenes for like a third of my playtime like in MGS4?

You're in luck: There is no writing in MGS5

Curl, you could of did a quick google search. The most well known thing about MGS5 that it is not a story heavy Kojima game, and it was on purpose in response to MGS4. You'll be fine.

MGS5 has fairly little story for an MGS game and, depending on what your problem is with Kojima's writing in general, it might also be more bearable. Anyway, even if you completely ignore the story, gameplay is absolutely solid and you should be able to enjoy it. Gameplay-wise, I'd say it's the best in the series by far. One minus is that there's fairly little sneaking in areas with lots of buildings, so most of the game is fairly open in that regard as well.

If you have the chance, play this game on PC or on Ps4. It deserves 60 fps.

Thanks for the input everyone, looks like I'll be picking this one up next time I spot it at EB Games.
