I had a blast with the first one, I just hope the 2nd game has a better story

NYC_Gamer3911d ago

I couldn't stand the gameplay/story of the original but hope the sequel gets made for fans of MGR

user55757083911d ago

like a raiden game that actually bridges the gap between mgs2 and mgs4

in that case im hoping for a prequel

Mr_Pinky3911d ago (Edited 3911d ago )

I'd rather they work on something else. I was a little disapointed with Rising overall.

Take away Metal Gear from it and it's just a typical hack and slash. Raiden isn't really the character in my opinion to stand on his own in a full game. I really can't stand him, the ninja thing from MGS4 onwards felt like they were trying to get people to like him. Gray Fox however..now there's a ninja and a hack and slash game I'd like to play

zerocrossing3911d ago (Edited 3911d ago )

I still thoroughly believe that the only reason MGR: Rising exists is because Konami wanted a new IP but thought setting it in the Metal Gear universe would help encourage sales.

Not that I'm complaining, it was probably a smart move.

I agree, and I'm not at all saying Rising was made for a fast buck, I just meant that they probably used the Metal Gear setting due to how popular the franchise is, instead of taking a bigger risk and creating an entirely new IP that could have very easily failed.

Salooh3911d ago

You kidding ?. Maybe that's one reason but the game wasn't made for fast buck , If it was aiming for that they wouldn't go and try something original and skillful , The game is a classic . Raiden fit to the gameplay so it was reasonable to made it in MG universe ..

They could make a sequel with the same gameplay but with the character that kojima always wanted . Don't remember the name though...

Let's just hope it's for next generation and use FOX engine with the help of platinum not the other way around. If they do that no one will underrate this awesome game that can be one of the best sword game eveeer ...

ginsunuva3910d ago (Edited 3910d ago )

No it was because MS paid Konami to make some type of game with the word "Metal Gear" in it for the 360.
So that at that one e3 Mattrick can say with his evil grin, "We has metal geerz on teh exbaux 360"

gano3911d ago

Have you all forgot.
Kojima said he wanted to keep on using raiden, but because his reception was not well liked, well you know.

I liked mgs2 that was more real story wise after mgs.
But because americans didn't dig him, he came with this half story
type.
Mgr story was half assed period. Fucin senator!? Ex high school football jock? Stop playin, the story was the only bad thing, even for koji. But it was a collab, so whatever.

But he did want to use raiden and i see potential there, but be fair for his vision. Shyt its kojima for cryin out loud. His games hardly soft on story.
Dmc is nother story, clowns keep tryin to say its a prequel to devil may cry. Wasn't that the point of 3. How he hell a new team go make a pre of something they never made. Fuc Dmc and his momma.

dcj05243911d ago

I like raiden. What did people not like about him? He is quite gullible though.

Kenshin_BATT0USAI3910d ago

By typical hack n' slash, you mean the only action game with depth left? LOL Go back to your God of War(no offence to GoW, it's good but combat lacks depth)

Firan3911d ago

MGR was fun. I would be happy for a sequel.

XboxFun3911d ago

Had a blast with MGR, loved the game to death and it was a gorgeous game at that.

I'm hoping for a sequel...But how about Vanquish guys?

NYC_Gamer3911d ago (Edited 3911d ago )

SEGA owns the Vanquish franchise

Edit:
Yes,but some other publisher would have to buy the rights from SEGA like Nintendo did with Bayonetta.

XboxFun3911d ago (Edited 3911d ago )

Can we still get a sequel...

Edit:
How about something simple like Platinum make the sequel and Sega publish it to the systems. That is all i'm asking.

SuperLupe3911d ago

Vanquish 2 would be sweet. One f the best action games I played this gen. I dont dare imagine what it would give on next gen consoles.

dcj05243911d ago

Oh god. I cant think about it. My mind would blow up and stop function.

Metal Gear Solid Can Work Without Hideo Kojima

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.

senorfartcushion317d ago

It actually can’t. But it won’t matter.

Kojima is Metal Gear the same way that Christopher Nolan is The Dark Knight, or David Lynch is Twin Peaks: The Return episode 8. Artistry is the creation of a thing from your own thoughts and feelings. Take away the original artist’s thoughts and feelings and you have a new thing entirely.

This isn’t going to stop the mega corporation creating a fake version and spending millions TELLING customers that it’s made with the same thoughts and feelings. The masses will buy the idea the same way the corporation will sell the idea.

just_looken316d ago

I guess everyone forgot metal gear solid rising was tossed to platnium games with a story script and that is it.

Z501316d ago

Kojima was involved in Rising tho

just_looken315d ago

kpjima just did the story everything else was platnium games look it up.

Hence i said script

neutralgamer1992316d ago

i think the bigger issue is whether or not Konami is actually interested in fully funding AAA games development. Even this remake is done by a studio not really known in gaming industry. Quality remake/projets vs cheap cash in quick releases. Which way will Konami head. I am a huge MGS fan and i feel like Kojima did long time MGS fans dirty with how made MGS5 and it's story elements

senorfartcushion316d ago

Remakes and remasters provide a gateway through to producing AAA games faster and cheaper.

RaveTears316d ago (Edited 316d ago )

Actually MGS Portable Ops which was technically the first canon MGS game that Kojima wasn’t mainly involved with it. Kojima was only the producer but not the writer and director.

Konami did other MGS spin off that were successful but that because Konami put effort. Just along Konami is not lazy and cash grab, they can a MGS game without Kojima.

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.

Flawlessmic317d ago

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.

Soulsborne317d ago

Well , he already created it. They just have to recreate it? Not like its a new concept or IP. Trash article.

Terry_B317d ago

Yes. It only needs motivated clever people.

Why We Need Metal Gear Rising 2

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.
