You should be ashamed!
I think it looks decent. I'm sure it'll be justified in game, not that it needs justification.

Unlikely. The ratings boards generally just want a video compilation of any content that might affect the rating of the game, and make their decision based on that.
Looking at the other ratings of MGS games seems like Konami just leaves that field blank
E: Nevermind MGS4 and 3 have Konami as production company

Wouldn't that be ridiculously easy to abuse?

Oh sure... if you never wanted any of your other games to ever get rated again, thus making them unsellable.
Not really. It's not in any company's best interest to submit stuff in bad faith. Sure, you can abuse the process, but it's so easy to get caught and you have more to lose than to gain from doing that.

I doubt any serious publisher would want to risk an effective ban from putting out games consoles should they get caught.

I don't know, without any kind of reasoning, why does it exist? If the answer if cheap thrills then it losses so much credibility as a design choice.
"buy this because tits" is not good enough. It tarnishes a product in my eyes. It says to me "this game needs this to try and sell", or "confidence in the product is low because they need this irrelevant angle to a story", hence why I hope it is given context, and not just because naked person teenage fap. I'm sure most will disagree, but it irritates me in any media when this is the case.
By comparison with GZ
I wonder what the operation scene at the end of GZ would be considered as. That was pretty graphic.
So MGS V has the same amount of sex and violence as the Atelier series then.

I wonder if this would have been banned if we never changed the rating system to have a R rating, which i still a joke it took so long.

My dumb American brain assumed the 2015 was a typo and you were saying January 1st, 2016. Which upset me because I was looking forward to it this year.

Yeah, I was just about to say this. Between cutting open people's guts to remove explosives and forcing children to rape women, I would consider Ground Zeroes high impact on violence and themes. Don't get me wrong, I am not saying they shouldn't be there (I think they fit thematicly with the game's setting and theme), but 15 year olds should not be playing it, in my opinion...
Edit: For those that didn't play it, my wording made it sound like the player is forcing kids rape women. No, no, it is the bad guys who did so (off screen, you only find out through an optional audio tape) and not the player, although the improve surgery is Snake's doing.
Congrats, you getting a censored version a month late

Or hopefully they are getting out of the way of the eventual GOTY Mad Max.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Rated R for Redundancy, which is what the entirety of KojiPro got.

RIP my summer ;(
Rubbing out Kojima's name takes time.
Someone mentioned it too me that there was apparently a lot of implied forced lesbian interactions. I'm sure it was all played off in that goofy boob-grabbing anime way, but apparently the rating board saw it differently.

It's still Sept 1st in the UK....
Eugh I hope it doesn't get pushed a month. It's basically getting a year of polish (although there will obviously be some kinda funny bug day 1) and I'd hoped for Sept1st so I could play it before UNi...
By comparison with GZ
GZ's finale doesn't even classify as high impact violence? And its audiolog's themes, neither?
I guess for me 'This is what she wants to wear' is a good enough reason.
I honestly don't care about what shes wearing. Its not her clothes or body that interest me.
I'm only really interested in her character.
I guess if I was actually thinking of a reason one could say its super hot where the story takes place and chucking on a turtle neck would be quite uncomfortable.
Quite surprising.
