SomTervo Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 (edited) But the subtitles to the earlier games are superfluous; they can be identified by the numerical value alone. This new one (refuse to acknowledge that name) has to be identified by the subtitle alone. Edited June 20, 2012 by kenshi_ryden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hot Heart Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 Nah, because it's Rising now. Solid has become a gas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomTervo Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 Ohhhh yeahhhh. But still, the others are identified normally with no mention of the subtitles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faiblesse Des Sens Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 I've always referred to this as "Rising" or "Metal Gear Rising." Same situation as the other games. Hell even "Metal Gear Raiden" is just as easy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMightyEthan Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 For me it's never been the length that's an issue, it's just that it's a stupid made up word. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomTervo Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 Have you looked at this thread? We're already in a bromantic dramedy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
「Advent Chaos」 Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 So uh... anyone want to talk about speculations on the game's story? I've gathered that Raiden's trying to rescue/protect some country's leader? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalCaveman Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 One of the trailers mentioned cyborg technology being available to pretty much everyone after the Patriots went Kaput! So I want to see what's up with that, also, since they mentioned it was after the Patriots I want to know why Raiden is back to his cyborg ninja mode. Unless they already said why.

toxicitizen Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 Uh, didn't expect this thread would be buried so far. Oh well, just gave the demo a go. Holy crap, do want! Platinum's trademark insane, precise and fast-paced gameplay was to be expected but it also feels surprisingly more like Metal Gear than I expected. Whether it does the series justice thematically and story-wise remains to be seen. But on a more superficial level, it's Metal Gear alright. Stuff like the HUD, sound, visual style, etc. Not sure yet whether I'll be able to pick it up at launch but it will probably be my first console purchase since like.. Mass Effect 3.

CorgiShinobi Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) I'm really tempted to pre-order because there's that smexy Gray Fox skin, sword, and art book if you pre-order from GameStop. Japan has all five skins as retailer specific, though the MGS4 Raiden skin has been a promotional item in the last few days. In the end I'll have to see where I am financial because you can guarantee all these skins can be purchased later. EDIT: To clarify, the United States seems to only have three of the five skins, and all you UK types will get all the skins in the game. GameStop has Gray Fox, Best Buy has White Armor (carry more health items), and Amazon has Inferno Armor (carry more throwing weapons).

Cyber Rat Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 After playing the demo three times yesterday... I am VERY tempted to pre-order this. Holy crap, was it fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxicitizen Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 I know, right? I must've spent at least twenty minutes just in the first beach area trying to cut every to pieces. A surprisingly large amount of it was destroyable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayc4life Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 I played it in September and wasn't a fan of the camera moving too fast if you're running towards someone and you hold (I think) R1 to go into the precision mode. Felt the camera should have been grounded, or at least had the sensitivity turned down a bit for situations like that. It was a pretty fun game, but I can't see myself paying full-retail for it. Will wait patiently for Ground Zeroes instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorgiShinobi Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 (edited) You don't have to purchase anything; having the money and/or time later is more important than having something like a skin. Yeah, I could get some cool bonus stuff for a game I definitely want, but I'm not going to put the cart before the horse if it means blowing $60 when I could (if not should) save it for later. Then again, I'm "that guy" who doesn't know the proper method of consuming as a consumer. EDIT: And so to contribute to the discussion of this game, if any of you saw the white cat on the beach, you may have not thought anything of it. If you actually tried to slice it...

Mal Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 I'll admit. I AM REALLY tempted on getting this game. Sadly, I got wiser (And broke) with money and won't be getting it... I never touched a DMC game and only ever played a bit of Bayonetta but hearing (Plus seeing a bit) on how awesome the boss fights are... it is tempting.

Mister Jack Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 I was pretty impressed by the demo but I heard the game is only about 5 hours long so I'll probably just rent it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorgiShinobi Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 (edited) Honestly, the story is a bit short and half the game takes place in Denver, Colorado, but it has the Platinum Games charm where it mixes elements of the Metal Gear universe with a style similar to Vanquish and Bayonetta, but still makes itself entirely unique. Right now, I thought I would get all the collectibles and secrets while playing through my completed Normal playthrough, but other content doesn't unlock until you've played on higher difficulties. You really do want to start out on Normal to get the hang of the game because even going onto Hard steps up the difficulty quite a lot. I honestly doubt I'll S Rank on Revengeance difficulty since to "S Rank" means you take no damage in any ranked battle. I'll tell ya this, even when you can parry, some enemies attack with such intensity. Also, you do want to actively listen to codec conversations. They help explain some of the WTF moments of the game and they do tend to be entertaining. I've learned that Raiden's eye patch is actually an optical device, all the cyborgs are explained to be the standard frame where they'll look the same, and cyborg boobies are still not as realistic as real ones. EDIT: Oh, and if you're somehow a master your first run, I guess the game could be "5 hours." My experience, the bosses will trash you a couple times where you have to learn their pattern, and what approach you want to take since there are a few strategies to these guys. Freaking Monsoon gave me a lot of trouble. Edited March 4, 2013 by Atomsk88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted March 4, 2013 Report Share Posted March 4, 2013 Wouldn't it be shorter than MGS4's cutscenes if it were only 5 hours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mal Posted May 18, 2013 Report Share Posted May 18, 2013 (edited) Well, I guess I have no excuses now (Unless it is a shit port). Also I suppose we got Dark Souls to thank for this? Edited May 18, 2013 by MaliciousH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
