Gematsu: "Metal Gear Rising producer Atsushi Inaba doesn’t like Ninja Gaiden 3. So he would appreciate it if fans quit comparing it to Metal Gear Rising – because some of them are doing that, apparently."
He shouldn't really be bragging about Rising either. Talk about not living up to your predecessor's. Anyone that has played MGS4 and witnessed the fighting knows that Raiden's assault is a graceful ballet of death. It is beautiful violence, a choreography of annihilation. Rising lacks this in everything we have seen. Although there is speed it is a crude hack hack hack with none of the delicate destruction wreaked in Raiden's previous incarnation.
Rising looks terrible to be honest. Specially the art-direction, it's sooo ugly and generic I can't believe this is a Metal Gear game. And not to mention the insane screen-tearing, you can't even enjoy the action with the screen breaking apart all the time. The game's seriously lacking in overall quality.
And I know you guys are gonna disagree with my comment no matter what and that's why I ask this in advance: how can you guys ignore it that easily? Or is just that you're so blind you can't see it?
Personally I liked the last MG Rising trailer. I see some stealth there, multiple weapons and even some more delicate slow-mo hack & slash that we could expect from Raiden, all combined with DMC-ish badass action.
Still not sure if this is going to be good. We had only seen trailers and it's already a emotional rollercoaster. The first teaser got me hyped, the Platinum trailer was a disappointment, now this last trailer made me hopeful... Gotta wait and see I guess.
"Professionalism" in the video game industry? Haha there's so many outspoken developers and so on that whenever a comment like this comes out I'm not surprised. There are also some very professional figures in the gaming industry, but I feel like a lot of people in the industry can feel free to be themselves because once they've made a name for themselves I don't really associate them with their company anymore, instead I just see them as they are.
Also MGR looks amazing. I love platinum games and they definitely know how to make action games. However, story is an integral part of the Metal Gear series so not sure how they'll do with that part, luckily Kojima has input so I'm not that worried about it.... Only slightly
I respectfully disagree sir, I thought Ninja Blade was the perfect embodiment of a Ninja. The action was so over the top that only a truly gifted shinobi could pull it off. The QTE were some of the coolest I've ever seen at that time. Severely underrated game.
If you read his twitter it actually doesn't say any of that, it says some other weird shit in Japanese translated in English but it doesn't say anything about shitty this or that, that was whoever it is came up with this post.
Who really gives a damn, Japanese developers are a shadow of their former self. Kojima is so overrated its pathetic. Ive written short stories that were much more coherent than his convoluted stories.
Congratulations. You've managed to write 5 minute stories that you feel are better than Hideo Kojima's entire saga of works. Very modest of you, random internet dude I've never heard of.
Ninja Gaiden has a history of quality action gaming with a difficult challenge that really makes you feel great when you get through a tough game... NG3 did not live up to this standard. Don't screw up Metal Gear RR, and give people a reason to compare it to sh$t*Y games.
I'll give Rising a chance, because I'm a die-hard Metal Gear Solid fan. Though honestly the change in direction makes me scratch my head a bit. The over the top-ness of what I've seen is a little off-putting to me despite the fact that there have been moments like that in the Solid series.
I guess we'll just have to wait until it's out to get a good verdict. I'm just a bit wary is all I suppose.
They said you could play the game using stealth, yet the last trailer shows us all action and such. I mean not a single part of that demo showed any stealthness.
Either way, it's a spinoff and not part of the actual series story. Probably will end up getting it cause it does look like a good hack and slash, but no way am I going to play it just cause it has Metal Gear in the name.
That was the case prior to handing the project to Platinum Games. It was suppose to be a stealth game and it was called MGS: Rising. This one is totally different from the first concept.
there were 3 "stealth" kills shown in the latest trailer: 1) aerial stealth kill coming down one footed on his sword 2) common behind the back stab 3) he sliced the guy in half from behind the pillar
there was atleast an inkling of stealth
if you remember, the original was supposed to emphasize stealth but also a sense of hunting your opponents. rising was supposed to be about ultimately engaging and dispatching your prey. metal gear solid is WAY more about NOT engaging, being completely undetected. different ends even since the beginning of the project.
actually it is a part of the main story seeing as it's about Raiden who is a big part of it. just because it dose not have Snake in it dose not make it any less important than Metal Gear solid peacewalker which can be argued has nothing to do with the series story.....but still dose seeing as it shows what Big Boss did after metal gear solid 3. This is about Raiden and his character, how being a child soldier effected him and reveal more about his past and why he is now who he is. There will be some stealth options but they said from the very beginning this was ment to be a fast paced action game because people wanted to have a playable Raiden and do the stuff he did in MGS4
Rising is not suppose to be a stealth game anymore. The sooner people realize that the sooner they will see how promising this game looks.
I was EXTREMELY skeptical about this game prior to seeing the latest trailer because it wasn't being made by Kojima, but after seeing it, most of my doubts are gone. Now I just hope that the story is on par with the Metal Gear Solid series.
Considering that the team that was making MGR couldn't even make it properly, they have no right to talk.
If Platinum didn't jump in, the game would have been canceled.
"Oh yeah, that spin off... yeah it was a pretty amazing action game... we couldn't even get the project going and Platinum delivered one of the best action games of the year" Nuff Said.
Hahahaha... I love reading MG diehard remarks. They're the only one's hatin' on this game. News Flash: It's not a MG game. I repeat: It's NOT an MG game. It's a spin off. You'll get your real MG next gen. Relax and enjoy the ride. Good God.
" News Flash: It's not a MG game. I repeat: It's NOT an MG game. It's a spin off. You'll get your real MG next gen. Relax and enjoy the ride. Good God. "
O rly? I must be seeing things in the title then.. because I could have swore it was called METAL GEAR rising..
Come on man. It's a spin off that shares the same universe but not the same MG gameplay. Plain and simple. It's a... *deep breath* Spin. Off. Therefore, it's NOT Metal Gear. Despite sharing the same name.
The only comparison between MGR:R and NG3 is that they're both action games. Simple as that. On the other hand, MGR:R is being developed by the best developers this generation; Platinum Games. Just that alone guarantees the game will be exceptional! Although I'm not a fan of the MGS series (DON'T KILL ME, but I have played and completed MGS4 :P) MGR:R is definitely amongst my most anticipated games.
Oh, I forgot to mention. I agree with Inaba... NG3 was terrible. Don't get me wrong, NG (alongside DMC) are my two top favoured videogame franchises and I've spent countless hours on each game. Except for NG3... I beat it once and I hadn't gone back to it. Definitely says something; especially it being my favoured genre...
Research what that makes Naughty Dog the best? Research what that makes God of War the best? Sales data? If that's all you're going on then Call of Duty is the best and Justin Beiber actually has skill.
Sorry but your logic is flawed. If he thinks P* is the best, that's his opinion and he is allowed to have it. I'm inclined to agree with him seeing as they make the most fun titles.
It does actually have things to do with the MGS series, albeit a few. Mainly that it's set after MGS4 and it starts Raiden. However the only thing you got correct was that it is a spin off. Minus the trash part. Last time i checked there were other spinoffs as well namely Metal Gear Acid! And you know what they were actually really well done for being a different type of game.
So before you go and start calling a game that you've never even played trash get some facts straight. Peacewalker was not intended to be MGS5. In fact before these statements of a MGS5 Kojima himself said he wouldn't make another one. Obviously that's changed. Also, since you've failed to realize this, Metal gear rising is NOT, and i can't stress this enough, part of, other than the few things i previously stated, the Metal gear SOLID universe. Hence the name difference. It's a story about Raiden.
I'm loving Platinum Rising more and more, esp after last trailer. I personally felt like this was going to be just a repetitive game like Vanquish, but the more story and characters I see, the better. I think all of us Metal Gear fans are concerned about the story in the end. Peace Walker was amazing as you got the sense of how Big Boss was rising and Outer Heaven came about. I still believe Rising will bring in new fans but how well they crave the story elements of Metal Gear is yet to be seen. I think this will be a fresh start for a new generation of fans.
Yeah because you've somehow played it right? I get that you can get a sense of "gameplay" from the trailer to kind of know whether or not you'll like it, but just cause the trailer doesn't appeal to you doesn't mean it is going to be shit. Saying a game is shit before it even comes out is asinine.
How do you have a valid opinion when you haven't played the game? That's like me saying India's national cricket team sucks, but I know next to nothing about cricket(I believe they have a pretty good national team, though).
Your opinion is your own, and as such, you can have whatever opinion you want. But when you start giving your opinion on a subject on which you're ignorant, your right to voice said opinion comes into question.
The game looks amazing. It's only getting hate because fanboys expect a Raiden game to have the same game mechanics as a Solid game, and because it's not PS3 exclusive. Platinum is one of the best devs out there today so I anticipate anything coming from them.
From the lastest trailer it looks like Metal Gear Rising will be a phenomenal action game. I mean, it single-handedly killed almost all my hype for the new DmC. Platinum knows how to make action games man. I just hope the story doesn't suck.
NG3 was a shitty game compared to the other versions
I'll give Rising a chance, because I'm a die-hard Metal Gear Solid fan. Though honestly the change in direction makes me scratch my head a bit. The over the top-ness of what I've seen is a little off-putting to me despite the fact that there have been moments like that in the Solid series.

Someone developing "MGS5" could probably say the same about Metal Gear Rising
"Oh yeah that spin off...yeah it was terrible, not really a MGS game. MGS5 will obviously be better then that"
It looked like Ninja Gaiden, But never felt the way it should.
Its true...its true...MG Rising awesome!
