yeah but I don't know about all that cutting in the game-play, got mix feelings about this one..

will have to wait until I see more of the game before I can pass judgment.. :)

SeanRL5084d ago (Edited 5084d ago )

The game looks cool, but I don't think it's deserving of the Metal Gear name. MG is all about stealth, tactics and relying on intelligence and skill to succeed. MG rising consists of a gay ninja cutting f*cking everything in half.

KingKiff5084d ago

It is Metal gear Risisng and that is it... No SOLID at all.

SeanRL5084d ago (Edited 5084d ago )

lol, just noticed that gonna edit that.

EDIT; @Despair, yes that's what I meant. It's still a good game, just doesn't fit as well in the Metal Gear universe.

EDIT:Dramscus, I'm pretty sure it can be called either, can we discuss the point I made instead of how I made it?

El_Colombiano5084d ago

You're right. It shouldn't be Metal Gear SOLID just Metal Gear.

despair5084d ago

he was actually talking about Metal Gear universe that was always about stealth.

Dramscus5084d ago

Watch the video it clearly says metal gear solid rising.

dirthurts5084d ago (Edited 5084d ago )

It is still in the same universe, staring Metal Gear characters.
Not what we're used to, but I'd leave the name.
Looks interesting if nothing else.
I'm betting Snake pops up somewhere to save the day.

Duke Spookem5084d ago

It SHOULD just be called "Rising" but it won't because then it would be a mediocre game that sells like shit rather than a mediocre game that sells decently only because the name alone.

negative_05084d ago (Edited 5084d ago )

Actually, the solid in metal gear solid refers to the transition that metal gear made in going from 2d to 3d. Thats why the orignal games were named metal gear, with the first metal gear game on the ps1 adding the solid at the end. Heard that explanation somewhere, but still could be wrong. I suppose thats why they still have the solid in rising.

BattleAxe5084d ago

I'm not too sure about this game now. Looks kinda cool, but I don't want it to be a hack and slash. Heres hoping that the Metal Gear solid collection comes out.

C L O U D5084d ago

does anyone know that SOLID is not a reference to Solid Snake?

It was used In the PS1 title to emphasise the fact the game has gone 3-D in terms of graphics.

KingKiff5084d ago

You all know that there is no SOLID in the name... Disagree you stealth trolls.

SeanRL5084d ago

lol I noticed that too. You were just correcting my mistake.

beardpapa5084d ago (Edited 5084d ago )

It's not an MG game at all. It's like others have said, a ninja gaiden-like game with MGS as the brandname to support it. Somehow, I don't think Kojima likes the direction (heavily 3rd person action based) of the game but has to be there to ensure it doesn't tarnish the metal gear universe he created. I think he'd rather his metal gear games be more towards tactical espionage and not hack-and-slash.

topdawg1225084d ago

I'm still excited for this game and this focuses on Raiden. He's a ninja bad*ss, you think he's gonna sneak around everywhere. His transformation into this seperate game looks very interesting. As long as it has a decently fluid and more complex battle system then I'm all for it.

TheAwesomessMan5084d ago (Edited 5084d ago )

It should be called 'Ninja Raiden: Lightning Bolt Action'

On-topic: I have to see more of this. Not much on my radar.

theBedBurner5084d ago

To bad all what people are saying about is how bad Mircosoft's E3 conference was but this game surely looks bad-ass.

trounbyfire5084d ago

they showed gears, fable, halo, forza, Risisng what the other i forget

theBedBurner5084d ago

their was Call of Duty too which didn't look half-bad.

trounbyfire5084d ago

i get wanting to see what you cut but it looked like a 2D sidescroler bet'm up

despair5084d ago

thats what i was saying it looked sidescroller with 3d design, and if he can cut through anything in one hit then every enemy is dead with one slash? WTF?

Dellis5084d ago

SOLID was never meant to be SOLID snake, it was the whole 3D solid vision Kojima was taking the series into with PS3.

Interesting! Thanks for sharing.

Nyxus2418d ago

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

TheVetOfGaming2417d 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.

People use to have more support for Donald on here, was almost half and half...not anymore lol...people we're like "Ohh he wont do that he just said that in his camapign, he wont actually go through with building a wall and banning muslims noooo"

Utalkin2me2662d 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.

ravinash2661d 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.

JunMei2661d 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.

Agreed. I wonder where all these people complaining about Trump were on voting day.

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.'

Agent20093855d 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.

Nyxus3855d 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.

-Foxtrot3855d 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_BATT0USAI3855d 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.

-Foxtrot3855d ago

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

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

Dagobert3855d 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.

zeal0us3855d ago

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

ChipChipperson3855d ago (Edited 3855d 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.

Nyxus3855d 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.

Murad3855d 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.

ZBlacktt3855d ago (Edited 3855d 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.

TheDivine3855d 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.
