Well from the trailer it seems there will be precision cutting in how you kill your enemies.

ShinMaster5068d ago

It looks like the analog stick is being used to guide which way to cut.

LaChance5068d ago

Looks really good to me. Keep my eye on it.

I just hope the story is as good as the other MGS's, that will be almost AAA confirmed.

Cevapi885068d ago

how about being able to deflect bullets...slice them right down the middle....we saw this in previous installments of the MGS series...lets see if we can actually have the ability to do this

Vo_Cal5068d ago

When i saw that, i almost peed..... a little

webeblazing5068d ago

are you talking bout deadpool

captain-obvious5068d ago

sorry but
where is the stealth ?

Biggest5068d ago

Am I the only person that played Afro Samurai? It's the same shit! As a matter of fact, I could argue that they're the same idea. Afro Samurai was fun for me because I love the series. You hack and slash your way to the end of the game. You have the ability to choose what and how you hack and slash with a measure of precision. From what the showed today, it's the same thing.

WildArmed5068d ago

while it not being a real MGS is estbalished..
i can't wait to see how this will roll out.
The game looks effen awesome!

Esp. since Kojima is working on Castlevania too, i think he can pull off the action-MGS game pretty well.

but I'm disappointed at the same time that we won't be getting a badass stealth game for what MGS is known for

hay5068d ago

Looks yummy. I love the tech behind this engine.

ALFAxD_CENTAURO5068d ago

Yes, looks good.

I asume you can unlock skills and improve the character.

Microsoft Xbox 3605068d ago

This was the only thing interesting coming from MS's conference. The Move would benefit this game the most.

-Ikon-5068d ago

you cant deny move precision and the way that demo looked. Imagine 2 moves dual wielding..

you can now recreate the radien videos from mgs4 in game

evilmonkey5015068d ago (Edited 5068d ago )

It is possible. This ISNT an xbox exclusive. Dont see how natal could do it, but yeah, move would kick ass with this game.

BlackSharinganX5067d ago

you know never thought of that my friend, thnx now i m ight get the move myself

Christopher5068d ago (Edited 5068d ago )

1. Destructible environments and objects.
2. Precision cutting
3. Power ups from defeated certain foes (energy?) that leads to skill enhancements
4. Free watermelon.
5. No cardboard boxes in sight, unfortunately.
6. Hideo is really uncomfortable when on stage.

@below: Yeah, don't know if it's because he's on stage or because he's not too happy with the direction of the game, but I'm leaning towards the former. From other reports, he was very happy and responsive at the PS Blog event last night.

jonboi245068d ago

or uncomfortable showing a game that really isn't his or maybe because he's on a MS stage. lol i kid. looks cool but i hated how when he got show he continues like nothing is happening. and i know it too early to tell but a lot of the enemies stood there shooting while he just walked up to them and sliced them.

dirthurts5068d ago (Edited 5068d ago )

Would you feel comfortable?

PirateThom5068d ago

Last year was the same, on Microsoft's stage... but, at Sony's, talking about a game he was in charge of and, obviously, cared about, he's very calm and composed.

raztad5068d ago

Lets not kid ourselves. Kojima feeling comfortable on a MS conference is like expecting Itagaki to feel at home at Sony stage. Guy loves PS brand and PS owners love Kojima work. BTW, dont forget to buy PW. Outstanding game regardless the platform.

Christopher5068d ago

***Kojima feeling comfortable on a MS conference is like expecting Itagaki to feel at home at Sony stage.***

Which only makes last night's event even funnier when he walked out on it after only a few minutes. Itagaki, that is. :p

jack_burt0n5068d ago

lol raz u make me feel guilty as soon as i get paid PW will b bought.

PirosThe4th5067d ago

lulz even Itekagi felt uncomfortable at M$ place....

Same happened last year.. i think that he doesn't really like M$... Konami is producing the game so he wasn't the one that came up with it.

SaberEdge5068d ago

I thought it looked cool. I also noticed that the gameplay portion looked better than MGS4, so that is a awesome.

evilmonkey5015068d ago

you could get beat up for saying things like that...lol. Better keep that opinion on the internet. :)

nycredude5068d ago

How did you notice that from such a short and small video? It looks like it's using the same engine to.

PirosThe4th5067d ago

@nycredude

They said that its a new multiplatform engine built from the ground up but its seems that they recycled all many models from MGS4 xD

Like the soldiers and some other stuff looks the same!

andron5068d ago

Kinda reminded me of the gameplay of Afro Samuarai with the slicing and the dicing, only better. Looking forward to more of this...

fooltheman5067d ago

maybe move will support it... ^^

mantisimo5067d ago (Edited 5067d ago )

I have to admit was actually fun in Okami (wii) when you sliced up the evil monkey guitar blowpipe devil.....things.

CYBERSNAKE5068d ago

lol i have to admit, i was a little impressed on how nicely he cut them melons

alphakennybody5068d ago (Edited 5068d ago )

ps move enable and it will be perfect!

with that kind of gameplay it'll feel more natural with the Move when cutting.

R2D25068d ago (Edited 5068d ago )

PS3 version for me - dont feel right playing any thing MGS related on any other console. That like me playing Halo on the PS3.

ChickeyCantor5068d ago

Its just software running on a machine...you kids these days.

Seferoth755068d ago

Nothing like that at all really. Cause you know MS owns Halo and Sony does not own MGS.

I know that happens a lot to casual gamers who know nothing about a series. even though Sony had the least amount of exclusive FF games some of Sony's casual gamers think its a Sony franchise

R2D25068d ago

I ma just saying that certain things dont feel right to me unless I play them on something that I am use to.

Saints Row 2 for example - I boguth Saints Row 1 for the 360 and boguht 2 for the PS3 and it did not feel right.

hay5068d ago

@R2D2: I had no problems playing Twin Snakes.

It didnt look to bad (im all for violence) ill wait till ive seen sum more gameplay b4 i make up my mind

It looked better then what it did yesterday

showtimefolks5068d ago

i am glad kojima didn't pull the exclusive crap ps3 fans deserve to play this just as much if not more

game needs to be fast i don't know what but the trailer that started was much more fast pace than the gameplay shown

and everything seems like ARCADE i mean cutting vans and pillers for buildings i hope they get some feedback from E# and improve and i really do believe KOJIMA himself needs to be involved if the feedback is not good

he just made peace walker and people called it one of the best if not best mgs game in the series mgs3 in my opinion

Kleptic5067d ago

Kojima stated numerous times that Rising is not 'his'...So it definitely is going to be very different than what MGS fans are used to...

No problem! Yeah it's a well made video.

TheVetOfGaming2401d ago

Interesting, although, I already knew most of what was on here. I just wish Kojima had the rights to the franchise. The saga has left with a whimper instead of a bang.

Utalkin2me2645d ago

@Erik7357

Obama banned mulsims too? So whats you point. It all of the sudden tpeople have a opinion on it due to not liking trump. But didn't care when Obama did it in 2011. Liberal Hypocrites.

ravinash2645d ago

He's been in barely a week, and all he does is create policies that give the appearance that he's doing something to please the people that voted for him. Nothing that is actually effective mind you.
He promises to build a wall, says Mexico has to pay for it - Mexico says it won't pay for it = no wall.
Even if the wall was built, if people are determined to get in, they will either climb or tunnel through, so the wall is completely pointless.

Then the ban on people from 6 Muslim countries. Basically creates a lot of hardship for innocent people (a lot of whom are american) because it's stopping families from being together.
And again it's ineffective because if someone really wants to get in (fake passport or go through one of those tunnels under the wall), then they will.
Even if they didn't, most of the attacks these days have been brainwashed people who were already living in America.

This just shows a president who is more concerned with the appearance they give rather than creating an actual thought out action plan to make the world a better place.

JunMei2645d ago

I'm not sure if he's serious or not. Needless to say, any time a country tries to make things overwhelmingly in its favor, making things unfair for everyone else, that's when countries stop doing business with that country. Which then causes exports from that country to falter, since it loses out on trade.

Do we really need Buzzfeed like articles now?? This site is supposed to be an escape from the US presidential fighting of the past 2 years. This is not the n4g I know and love.

The n4g I know is us fighting over review scores, consoles, handhelds, exclusives and PC.

The most promising games that never saw a release

VGS: 'Part of the excitement in gaming comes from watching a game be unveiled, following its news updates and eagerly awaiting the day of release. But there are times when it never gets to that final part. Either the game is cancelled, put on hold indefinitely, or becomes ‘vaporware’ - meaning, we simply never hear from it again. Here are some games that never saw a release, but that did look rather promising.'

Agent20093839d ago

I'm still disgruntled by Kojima's decision to cancel the original Metal Gear Solid: Rising's concept. It was absolutely ambitious: an open world stealth slasher with an ability to cut literally everything to make your way through... without enemy's notice.

I guess it was just too beautiful to happen.

Nyxus3839d ago

Yeah the idea was very cool but they just couldn't get the concept together. It's a shame but maybe they will do something with the material they have some day.

-Foxtrot3839d ago

I know right, in my opinion the game we got was horrible compared to what could of been. The Rising game we got seemed out of place for being a MGS game even despite being a spin off.

Eight Days hopefully will make it's way to the PS4 one day, the gameplay back in 2006 looked amazing. Imagine what it will look like now

Kenshin_BATT0USAI3839d ago

Rising is actually canon. LOL

Also, although it seems out of place. It was by no means a bad game. Terrible story, but gameplay was AMAZING.

-Foxtrot3839d ago

Get out...really, it's now cannon

I thought Kojima said it was a non cannon spin off...christ sake <sigh>

Dagobert3839d ago

I was seriously looking forward to Konami's MGS Rising. That was supposed to be an actual prequel to MGS4 where the storyline made sense. The new one just sucked honestly, it would have made a great Bayonetta game where gameplay is fun and storyline is just stupid.

zeal0us3839d ago

Blame the development for not being able to get the action and stealth element together.

ChipChipperson3839d ago (Edited 3839d ago )

The original concept for Rising definitely looked way better. It just had that swiftness and accuracy to the whole cutting mechanic. There was a certain, I suppose, elegance and finesse to the way they had Raiden move and how he fought. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed Revengeance for what it was, but I was really looking forward to what Kojima Productions was going for, both gameplay wise and story wise. Who knows, maybe one day they will use concept for a new Rising game that is made by Kojima Productions or possibly a new IP from them.

Nyxus3839d ago

I agree, while I did enjoy MG Rising, the previous concept did look and sound intriguing, and I was interested in that story focusing on Raiden's transition to cyborg ninja.

Murad3838d ago

I totally agree with your statement, but now that I'm thinking about it, if he did do it, it would be very difficult in terms of programming. The reason why is because every time, let's say hypothetically, Raiden cut something, that dataStructure would have to look completely different, or disappear and be replaced, there would be far too much to necessary power to be put on different systems, I believe, unless I'm thinking of programming this game completely the wrong way.

ZBlacktt3839d ago (Edited 3839d ago )

And when I was saying this spin off game was going to do so poorly long before it came out. People just clicked disagree, lol. I know the gaming market. :cool:

Same with MGS5. People will buy it for sure. But it won't have the impact MGS4 did. More so changing out David Hayter for no real reason at all. But more for a personal one of Kojima's. Many diehards did not like that at all!

A lot of the games history died in MGS4. Now it's become just some game. Will be interesting to see how it plays out.

TheDivine3838d ago

Idk I really didnt care for MGS4, it was too action focused, stealth meant nothing, the story was horrendous, along with many other things like lack of memorable boss fights. Still, MGS is as awesome to me as always. The game didnt live up to snakes last mission in my eyes but it was still a good game. The series is still amazing for sure.

I do agree axing David Hayter was a HORRIBLE thing to do. He is Snake. The series is def going more TPS and mainstream. I'm worried how Kojima will manage to keep it stealthy in an open world setting. I have my worries but Kojima has delivered time and time again so I will trust him and hope he makes me feel like a fool for doubting him lol.
