Anthony Severino Writes: Despite bearing the name, this is no Metal Gear game. At least not like you’re used to. This would have been good and fine for Raiden to have a game of his own outside the Metal Gear Solid universe, that’s filled with action instead of stealth. But, then why have stealth? Why have a soliton radar? You rarely use either, and it doesn’t quite fit in the fast-paced action confusion. Hideo Kojima was right in cancelling Metal Gear Solid: Rising—it just didn’t work. Even he saw that. Instead, someone at Konami had the bright idea to let Platinum Games take over the development. From the ashes, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance was born, and like any problem child that grows up into an insufferable disappointment, it’ll leave a stain on the reputation of the parents: revered developers Platinum Games and Kojima Productions.
You might not be able to believe this, but Dark Souls is a pretty tricky game on the PlayStation 3.
There are more good non-Kojima Metal Gear games than one would realize. Scientifically, three examples prove a trend, and in this feature are three excellent Metal Gear games that Hideo Kojima did not direct.
I hope so, still cant forget MGS Survive , the first MGS game without Kojima involvement and it was a complete failure, the thing is Kojima way of thinking is outside the box and that's why their games 99% end up unique, original and a almost instant classic. MGS series are full of intricate things that somehows connects to each other, Lalulilelo, the Patriots, Outher heaven, Foxhound, PMCs , heck even Kojima manage to insert DARPA in there lol, a US government Defense Agency. So is really great MGS3 Remake is reviving the series but without Kojima who knows of the end result, I hope Konami have another or more developers insight their studios who can also think outside the box.
i mean sure, but he made it the thing it is today and why people love it so much.
i think its not easy to replicate.
I doubt it could.
Say what you want about the bloke, but his games are uniquely his.
I don't think anyone makes games like kojima does, for better or worse.
Could mgs continue without him, yea maybe, but it would lacking his genius so wouldn't be the same.
Well , he already created it. They just have to recreate it? Not like its a new concept or IP. Trash article.
Demand for a sequel is about to skyrocket, like the good ol' days of 2013!
In case you're living under a suspiciously rock-shaped object, the recent PlayStation Showcase revealed that a remake of Metal Gear Solid 3 will be coming, alongside a Master Collection of Metal Gear Solid 1, 2, and 3. While it is a remake of an existing game, there's a great deal of significance to it, considering the last time a game in the series came out was back in 2018 with Metal Gear Survive (and the less said about that, the better). Konami's decision to pull a Konami and feud with series creator Hideo Kojima has long left the fate of Metal Gear uncertain, but this recent announcement has led to all bets being off as to where Metal Gear can go from here.
This game is such a hit or miss between reviewers. From the demo I played I felt bored after a few mins. Though the graphics and physics are awesome for a game running at 60fps.
This reviewer has absolutely NO IDEA what he is talking about. With regards to Rising's development cycle. I Mean really you'd expect a reviewer to know what happened to Rising before spewing BS about it.
"but then gets his tail handed to him by the most generic of enemies—it doesn’t make sense"
Welcome to hack and slash genre. Where Kratos can take out a Giant and then be killed by 4 or 5 little ****s or Bayonetta can take out a large god thing with two heads and be ****ed by some little ****.
"from the weakest of enemies, to the anger-inducing boss fights—is frustrating. Frustrating due to the camera."
Translation - I suck at this game
"did not complete the game. I did not finish the last boss. On normal"
Translation - I REALLY SUCK AT THIS GAME!
This is not the game's fault if you suck at it.
I doubt this review is serious probably just wants hits.
Like I said before, not a real MGS game.
@Hanso
If it will help you sleep better at night son, this is not a MG game.
