If you are choosing between MGS5 and new 007 game, choose MGS5.
Edit: I want to expand a bit on why.
I have never played a single MGS game, nor I did play new Bond game (on that later). As of right now I am playing MGS5 for the first time and I am stunned on how fun, long and wide this game is compared to anything else. That is fucking nuts what this old AAA game offers to a player. Right before MSG5 I have finished Assassins Creed 1 and 2 and I will say that both ACs are far far away from what MGS5 offers a player. The game is truly a stealth sandbox. Probably an ultimate one too.
As for new 007 game, I have watched one channel where guys play old games and dissect the experience. They have played Blood Stone and kind of liked it. There are plenty of issues with that game but it was semi-fun to play.
Now one of these guys did a review of new 007 game. His main problem with it is that it is too repetetive and straight forward. Plot is not engaging, characters have no chemistry with a player. Some sections are too short (mainly driving, mainly pointless driving) and the others are plain simple. His comparison games were Hitman and Uncharted where he claims that devs of new 007 game failed to capture true nature of both games. He provided examples on why and they made sense for me.
His conclusion was that the game is okay, but doesn’t offer same or better experience as the other 2 which games this game is compared to or inspired by. And both games are much more older and more fun to play than new 007.
tl;dr I highly suggest to take MGS5 due to how unlinear, sandboxy, how much it offers and replayability it has over a lineal gameplay of new 007. And MGS5 is half the price.
Edit 2: Also wanted to add that I am around half way though the MGS5 and its been over 30h of gameplay for me. I am also watching a play-through of this game to compare my experience to someone else who’s much better. This guy plays on NG+ with all the weps at max and reaching all S ranks and their play-through is 20h. 20 HOURS, CARL! If you play for the first time, it offers you over 50h of gameplay. What modern game offers a player 50h of gameplay for 30 bucks? AND THERE ARE ALSO SIDE MISSIONS! I cant believe I am simping for this game so much.
