Is this Metal Gear Solid: Rising’s box art?

Scrawl: "This morning on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace, Metal Gear Solid: Rising was updated from its old placeholder box art to the box art you see above."

He seems to be holding the spine of would could be a defeated cyborg enemy. Also, the thing on his back looks like a pretty cool weapon.

I can't wait to see some gameplay.

nanometric5072d ago

Looks like a light version of Fortunes/Crying Wolfes railgun, imho.

Focker4205072d ago

:crosses fingers: please be alien, please be alien, please be alien,.....

Everything else has aliens, so why not MGS, :rolls eyes:

Xbox 360, WTF?!

Sheikh Yerbouti5072d ago

Raf1k1...Dude me too. First thing I said..."Rail gun, huh? Day one"

Some folks hate the departure from the Solid series, but I look forward to the re-acquaintance. Hopefully Raiden and I will hit it off better this time.

Just. No. Naked. Somersaults. lol

Hellsvacancy5072d ago (Edited 5072d ago )

That thing on his back looks like sum sort of future electric guitar lol (i dont like it)

Apone5071d ago

I think it's some sort of subsonic stabilizer ;)

Man In Black5072d ago

Like with the previous games. It's been like that since Snake Eater, with NA getting some shitty CGI boxart, and EU getting Shinkawa's artwork.

sickbird5072d ago

i know right the NA boxart for MGS4 is terrible, good thing i got the special addition with the good artwork.

AAACE55072d ago

Where are the wavy lines that they have been talking about the past few days? You know, the one's they said replaces the old design to make way for Natal!

WildArmed5072d ago

lol Am I the only one that doesn't care about the box art?
At this point the game could be ANYTHING, we havn't seen a screenie as much as a video of gameplay.
I just cant help wonder if this game's development is going well at all.

Imperator5072d ago

This game....is so not a Metal Gear Solid title.... Why is Solid even in the title? It should be called Metal Gear Rising (without the Solid).. eh.

BkaY5072d ago

it bothers me as well.. and i read in news that they haven't even contracted for snake voice over...

MGR sounds right to me..

E3 plz bring the tiny winy, insy winsy gameplay....

peace

ps: i dont give a flying ratsass about the boxart... all i care about is what i am getting out of the dvd/bluray..

The_Firestarter5071d ago

That kept it as MGS:R for name brand recognition. I agree, MGR would be a MUCH better name, but what the fuck ever. This isn't even a TRUE MGS game.

Eamon5072d ago

Does this mean MGS Rising is going to be featured in MS's conference?
That would be a bit ironic.

Can't wait for E3 in a couple of days!

beardpapa5072d ago

He has some killer thighs. It's almost like he has a phat ass. Lol

solidt125072d ago

that box art is hot. I hope that is the real box art

Ninjews5072d ago

That has to b e Frank Jaeger. The game looks sweet, wonder if it will be like God of War?

It Looks Like Grey Fox To Me.

darkdoom30005072d ago

Fox did have white hair. so did raiden. oh shi-

Raiden was an orphan, raised by solidus. Raiden's father is...... grey fox! confirmed by me.

xaviertooth5072d ago

if that's the boxart, it'll blend really well with the PS3 gamecase better than the green theme of the 360.

MiloGarret5072d ago

lol, you just can't help yourself can you?

Parapraxis5072d ago

Sorry xaviertooth, but that just sounded desperate lol.

darkdoom30005072d ago (Edited 5072d ago )

*facepalm

comments like that make us PS3 fans look bad.

Scott6675072d ago

While I do agree (I've never really liked the green casing of my 360 games), this is a very silly comment to make.

btw... it wouldnt hurt you a bit to act like a gamer not a hater...

whom im kiddin...never mind..

peace

Sheikh Yerbouti5071d ago

Since The Contra Revival Shows Konami Still Cares, How About A New Castlevania?

Hanzala from eXputer: "Contra: Operation Galuga is a classic revival done right, but why hasn't Konami done the same yet for the bigger and more popular Castlevania?"

shinoff218325d ago

Slowdown. Let them get these suikoden games done first. Alot of us are still waiting for those

XiNatsuDragnel25d ago

Castlevania fighting game for wii needs to be remade plz

Aphrodia24d ago

well, the new C ontra was made by Wayforward, who have been taking sooooo many of these classic franchises and making new iterations of them. Imo they aren't very good at it. And I don't see operation galuga being a large enough success to possibly give them Castlevania.

It’s almost like Metal Gear is a well known franchise

just_looken83d ago

Horrible news more proof todays "gamer" is just a cow ready to be milked.

That mgs collection is no better than my ps3 copy but my ps3 copy has 0 server restrictions i always roll my eyes when reviewers or these new "youtube gamer" channels show off the information books on a webpage via a trash in game browser or the lack of controller support like it s a good thing.

Also GOG still has a better version mgs 1 or use the duck ps1 emulator.

Well time for the peace walker remaster pc port 480p 20fps needs a rtx 3090 or 6900xt to run with dunovo konami account then a govt id check.

just_looken81d ago (Edited 81d ago )

All the bonus content on the new collection needs a konami server to load them up if you pull your lan cord only the games will work but that is temp as those games are digital goods.

When i said digital i know there is a disc version games are on the disc i was referring to the pc version and the patches after the fact but yes ps5 has a disc version.

Here is the online bit

You mean the game that won a bunch of awards and has an 83 on opencritic?

83 is good, not sure what you are getting at.
You must miss loads of great games.

DarXyde86d ago

Gee, I wonder if there were any contemporaneous issues internally while the game was being made?

Nah, couldn't be. Game was released exactly as intended.

Samonuske86d ago

And regardless of its issues, it still had arguably the best gameplay in the series.

mkis00786d ago

The gameplay was amazing, coming from one who didn't play any of them until 4

Yui_Suzumiya86d ago

MGS ended with 4 for me. I want Hideo Kojima to get the Snatcher IP from Konami so there can be a remastered release and a sequel.

mkis00786d ago

Well 4 is technically the last in sequence right?

Chocoburger86d ago

@mkis007

Unless if you want to count Revengeance, which I started a new playthrough of recently, and damn is it still fun.

CDbiggen86d ago (Edited 86d ago )

Yeah it was, he didn't want to keep making MGS and it showed. Even if he was given the time by konami to finish it, what was there was already so weak that it's hard to see what could've salvaged it. The gameplay was quality no doubt. I still cringe at the characters and story though and the jeep scene.
