2013 is looking to be a massive year for the action genre. The List of action games is quite impressive, but were going to focus on four titles to be early runners for action game of the year. Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, Bayonetta 2, God of War Ascension, and Castlevania Lords of Shadow 2 are all coming out in 2013 and have big name developers attached to them. Two of the four games on the list are developed by Platinum Games, so we know what genre they do best. We’re going to rank what games we think will be best in 2013 from 4th to 1st. Please comment on what you think. Which one of these games are you most excited for, and what game do you think will be the best?
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.
lMFAO that DmC was not mention
Both the PS3 and the WIIU has a Hack and Slash exclusive coming out next year, where is Microsoft's?
I think they all will be great and do well, but I will reserve judgement until I get to play them all.
Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes.
None
Just as last time with the first, I believe that Bayonetta 2 will keep it's title as hack N slash champion in my opinion.
