A) As much as I hate to admit it, I have never played a Metal Gear game besides Ground Zeroes, which I got with the pre-order. Well if you loved MGSV, the other MGS games might not be the right thing for you, but you still might want to check out the legacy collection to find out. My personal favourite was MGS3. I think the major difference between MGSV and the other parts of the series, is that the other ones take a lot more time for story telling - they're more like playing an interactive action/sci-fi/thriller movie.

Some people were annoyed by the rather long cutscenes, but ultimately it's what gave MGS the fan base it has today. Kojima may not be the best story teller, since his story do not only leave loose threads left (which is actually ok, if you do sequels), but are sometimes even incomprehensive and even contradictory.

What Kojima DOES know how to do though, is setting things in scene - that was always what he could do best.
