** Regardless of the platform, the both games are absolutely unbelievable to look at. The fact the UsefulNotes/PlayStation3 and UsefulNotes/{{Xbox 360}} can still run this game at a playable frame rate, on ''9 and 10 year old hardware'', respectively, is an amazing feat in optimization.

Moved from Metal Gear Solid V Trivia page.

** Many fans and sources speculated that ''The Phantom Pain'' was actually a ''VideoGame/MetalGear'' game well before it was announced as such, thanks to the clues left in the original trailer.
** A number of fans had figured out that the {{creepy child}} with a gas mask was actually a young Psycho Mantis, or that he was at least involved with the mysterious organization of "Those Who Don't Exist". This was given further credence by ''Game Informer'' about a month before the release of ''Ground Zeroes''.
** From his reveal, there were much speculation being thrown around about Eli being [[spoiler:a young [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid Liquid Snake]]]], and with very little talk on the matter, only strengthened the suspicions. [[spoiler:So, when it turns out that he actually ''is'' Liquid, no one was surprised.]]
** Regarding a huge plot twist revealed at the end of the game: [[spoiler:several people guessed that "Venom Snake" was a clone of Big Boss. While this isn't entirely true, he is a separate individual. Rather than being a complete clone, he made in to a body double with MagicPlasticSurgery and hypnotherapy]].
