Is Konami trolling us with these awful Metal Gear Rising screens?

Konami has released some new Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance screens. They're so egregiously bad that we're convinced they're either a mistake or designed to troll us. (Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, PS3, Xbox 360)

Lol, the one with the box is hilarious...
gaffyh  +   308d ago
What exactly is wrong with any of these screens? They're not awful at all.
slimpickens  +   308d ago
Pic 5 sucks but the rest look good by me.
Kurylo3d  +   308d ago
because they look like they have graphics from a ps2 game. Infact metal gear solid 2 looked better then some of these screenshots.

I think you may have gotten too used to this generations graphics as you clearly don't remember what PS2 graphics were like (in most cases).

I initially thought they are not that bad
then i pressed view full screen. holy shit they are bad on my 22 inch screen. wonder how it would look on my 50 inch plasmna9
irepbtown  +   308d ago
Maybe the screens are from the PS2 version of the game :D

But I think they're trolling us. Or hinting that it will be open world game. Though I dont know how they could pull that off.

Oh these Awful, Awful screens OMG

If you look closely you can see that on the right leg in the third pictures' Uvw unwrap procedure was done incorrectly, resulting in a 1 pixel shift and 1mm to scale loss of symmetry Oh wow this is worse than i thought, they are definitely trolling.
last time i saw work so amateur, I was in hamburg germany at the batteries not included convention.

ha ha its so awful, they are so! tROLL'in us Only an idiot would look at that and say, thats better than all of you could do

and only a super idiot would say thats just merely a clipping issue and everything about that work exudes professionalism, and that the department responsible for clipping in a game engine is not hideo kojima but likely the super genius he's got hired who also happens to be the only person in the studio who can rewrite the hundreds of heroglyphic lines of code needed to correct such a minor issue.

These guys are definitely trolling, Ive never seen such Awful work, this is terrible... i mean they couldnt just move the box? and fix this blasphemy.
Pic 5 Is Soo rediculously bad and not to mention how bad the rest of it is, they should have learned to utilize the power of the PS3 that is still untapped then these screens wouldnt be so AWFUL My goodness they have to be trolling because if they arent then im not buying this game. so much untapped power that the developers need to get experience with so that they can make these screens not look awful.

Man they are so trolling all of us, MAN! this is so bad, so awful. I mean come on. theyll release the new screens soon that show the real power of the ps3!
LastDance  +   308d ago
The pictures suck because the game looks terrible.
joab777  +   308d ago
We all know what gets talked about. And they know that people will go see how good it really looks. But it gets attention and gets us blogging about it.
ChrisW  +   308d ago
Screen shots are always hints as to what the game is suppose to be like.
SPAM-FRITTER-123  +   308d ago
the 5th screen shot is from the PS3 verion IMO. you can tell just by the look of the the jagged edges.

literally zero interest in this game.

Typical hack-n-slash game with Metal Gear stamped on it.
jc48573  +   309d ago
KP got nowhere with this game and we all know time means money. I doubt Konami had plans to turn this into a high budget title, especially when time has already been wasted.
pandehz  +   309d ago
Hehe thats a nice screenshot actually.

Is that thing what I think it is?

can't really see anything wrong with all screenshots but the fifth...
Irishguy95  +   309d ago
Whoever made the title is genius, this is sure to attract a ****load of heat, only to find out there is nothing actually wrong/ Yeah besides the 5th

Actually in the first, the box is supposed to be over him. Thought it was cut up at first but guess not, just a big clipping issue

Now that you mention it, and I see a floating car in another picture. None of these seem worthy of the title though, these are just development oddities. If they appear a lot in the final game we might have something to talk about, but at this point...
WeskerChildReborned  +   308d ago
Yep, it' all for heat.
BinaryMind  +   308d ago
On the other hand, if you like staring at Raiden's ass I'm sure these are fantastic screenshots.
NewZealander  +   308d ago
well staring at raidens ass will be a lot more enjoyable then old snakes ground humping ass from MGS4 EWWW!
Run_bare  +   309d ago
Why don't they just concentrate on ZOE 3. The last game was MGS 4 in June 2008, it's been 4+ years now and stop recycling all games for HD, I need some new contents.
HammadTheOne  +   308d ago
zone of the Enders was amazing.
RGB  +   308d ago
You obviously forgot about Peace Walker.
Run_bare  +   308d ago
No, not forget, I don't have a PSP as I was waiting for Vita at the time.
Summons75  +   308d ago
Rising is being made by Platinum Games, KP just has control story and to make sure they keep to metal gear vibe. ZOE3 will most likely depend on how well the HD collection sells
TheFallenAngel  +   309d ago
Is this site trolling us for making like 10 different pages for just pics?
GunzBlazing09  +   309d ago
I love Rising... Raiden has an Alter Ego just like Eminem with "Slim Shady"

They can develop so much in terms of story... Good that it's Kojima Productions working on the story.. If it was Platinium it would be lame.. I liked Vanquish story but it missed a bit of.. y'a know Kojima style... it's hard to explain...

I like Kojima Productions writing.. it gets me damm involved in the game
numonex360  +   309d ago
MGS 4 was so good it should have been ported to the XBox 360. MGS 4 is the best PS3 exclusive surpassing God of War 3 and Uncharted 2/3.

I'll give you uncharted but God of War 3 is untouchable.
HammadTheOne  +   308d ago
Xbox can't handle it and changing stuff would ruin it. Remember how FF XIII was fcked up cause of the Xbox port? The PS3 Demo graphics were better than the real thing.
DigitalRaptor  +   308d ago
No it wasn't fcked up cause of the port. The game was destined for the way it turned out because it was originally designed as Ps2 game and then Square decided to work it towards the next generation. The fact that it came to 360 with the DVD format only added to the problems.
Darrius Cole  +   308d ago
I pretty sure that there were floods of posts that showed that the graphics of the PS3 demo were better that the graphics of both final versions.
UnitSmiley  +   309d ago
Ugh the screen where Raiden is hoping missles to get to the chopper. I hope this game isn't ridiculously over the top. Action is fine, i'm looking forward to it. I know this isn't a stealth game and i'm down with that. But I don't want this to be a generic hack n slash with no sense of realism at all. I wish Kojima had kept working on it instead of handing it off. I mean, I loved Vanquish from Platinum n all, but I don't want this game to be a bayonetta/dmc clone.
bishop-br  +   308d ago
I don't know man, remember the MGS4 Rainden fighting Gekkos? That was over the top action too... If the game focus on Raiden as a cyborg ninja I'd say some over the top fights (specially boss fights) is believable and sits well within the previously stabilished character in the franchise.
Kurylo3d  +   308d ago
yea but in this ones trailer.. if mgs4 gecko spinning was over the trop.. the fact that he picks up a metal gear ray.. and throws it... then leaps on it while its in the air and runs up and cuts it into little peices.... well...

The thing is the size of a 10 floor building. That is a little too over the top and thats what this game looks liek its all about.
PirateThom  +   308d ago
Gekkos were tiny though, in MGS4 Raiden could contain a ship moving through land for a few seconds...

In this, he throws a RAY unit into the air.

It's not within his established character to be so overpowered he's bordering on invincible.
Summons75  +   308d ago
KP knew they couldn't handle the project thats why they ask PG to do the gameplay for them since Bayonetta and Vanquish were great. KP is still behind the story and quality of the game. nothing to worry about at all.
Ramas  +   308d ago
5th screenshot graphics like ps2....
Electro_UK  +   308d ago
Anyone thought that this might these might be shots of the Vita version?
Kaizin514  +   308d ago
Yea, that is the first thing that came to mind. That, or these were scanned in from a magazine of sorts. In any case, I don't think they look bad and I plan on buying it anyways, looking forward to it.

I love Platinum. :) I can't wait for this game.
Skateboard  +   308d ago
Raiden was over the top in Mgs4. I don't understand all the bitching.
PirateThom  +   308d ago
He wasn't that overpowered... he still got his crap knocked in by Vamp, he still couldn't hold back a ship moving through land for more than a few seconds and Gekkos are tiny Metal Gear units.

In Rising, he throws a RAY into the air.

I rest my case.
MySwordIsHeavenly  +   308d ago
I know Metal Gear Ray's are bigger, but they're not like ships or anything. Platinum knows how to make a character powerful and still give you a challenge. Bayonetta and Vanquish? Devil May Cry?
Shadowstar  +   308d ago
"He wasn't that overpowered ... he still couldn't hold back a ship moving through land for more than a few seconds..."

Um... Is my sarcasm detector out, or did you mean that for real? Because... if holding back a 630-meter long battleship for any time at all isn't ridiculously overpowered...
Frankfurt  +   308d ago
Even thought footage so far looked better than that, it wouldn't surprise me if it were real. This is a 60fps game in a sub-30 world...

Gameplay >>>>>> Graphics.
Platinum >>>>>> All.

Terrible screenshots. But the game does look alright in motion (if the gameplay clips from this year's E3 are anything to go by).
frankboy2012  +   308d ago
This game is taking forever to come out.....well atleast my great great great great great great great great great great grandson will get to play it when it releases :)
RyuX19  +   308d ago
It's coming out early next year lol.
RyuX19  +   308d ago
I don't know why test footage was released as screen shots; kind of a dumb decision on their part. I know they release a lot of test footage on their YouTube so it's not surprise to me, but to others they are gonna be like "WTF?".

Watch the trailers in HD and the game looks nothing like these screens. Also keep in mind folks that this is a 60fps game with a lot of things going on. With all of the stuff that will be happening on screen I think this game looks fine.

IWentBrokeForGaming  +   308d ago
Aren't the 360 fans the only ones truely anticipating the arival of this game? I figured PS fans automaticly new this game was bs because it's such a major departure for the series?

Im personally not impressed with these screens at all, but at least 360 fans get SOMETHING Metal Gear related!
Studio-YaMi  +   308d ago
CVG are FULL of it (you know what!),these screenshots are nowhere awful like they stated in the article headline..

only the fifth screen looks kinda -old build- but other than that it looks good(at least!).
RedSoakedSponge  +   308d ago
the enemies in these pics look like they are helgast from killzone

60 frames comes at a price.
edgeofsins  +   308d ago
Some are decent and some are bad. I don't think they are all at the games native resolution so it makes all of them look worse probably.
0pie  +   308d ago
Japan make some shity games... I dont know why people are surprised here.
floetry101  +   308d ago
I think it's funny that every time the public is shown game screenshots, they're practically flawless. These screens are just showing us that the game is in fact...still a game. I'm sure it looks a hell of a lot better in motion anyway. Vanquish sure did.
Kos-Mos  +   308d ago
American journalism at it`s finest; questions in the headline.
