Out of the press conference for microsoft this was the only thing that excited me, this is on ps3 anyways, this conference is worser than Nintendo.

Anorexorcist5065d ago (Edited 5065d ago )

but don't you love how only the Xbox 360 name and logo were shown at the very end of the trailer at 1:59.

Oh Microsoft, your little bits of propaganda that stem from you bottomless check book is so funny and pathetic at the same time.

No it's actually not funny, just pathetic.

Microsoft just can't make their own blockbusters, so they feel like throwing money around and duping some people (specifically the casuals) into buying their console for a specific multi-platformer is their way to survive.

Survive yes. Thrive, No.

ShinMaster5065d ago

Yeah, the Xbox 360 logo is not part of the trailer.
It's just something Microsoft added at the end of it.
You don't fool me, MS, you don't fool me!

DaTruth5065d ago

Lighting Bolt Action??? They should have called it MGR or something.

Don't know how interested I am in this anymore, but I guess I need to see more!

Zydake5065d ago

NOOOOOOO ITS PAINFUL TO WATCH MY EYES

theKiller5064d ago

i dont believe anything that comes from MS unless is people playing it wit their 360 joy pad and see the x and y buttons on the screen.

Takoulya5064d ago

I'm not defending MS here, but SONY did the same thing for Assassin's Creed 2 marketing. On topic, though, this game looks like crap. As a huge fan of the Metal Gear Solid series, I'm severely disappointed. What happened to the stealth gameplay? Now we can just cut people in half? Nice move, Konami & Kojipro.

jeseth5064d ago

Rising doesn't feel like metal gear at all. It looks like a hack and slash action game. Hopefully there are more stealth aspects to it because with a character like Raiden it could be a great new story line in Metal Gear.

This Rising looks more like Ninja Gaiden Sigma when it should be more like Tenchu....or....more like Metal Gear.

gtamike1235065d ago

They should of called it "Raiden" and see if it sales with out MGS in the name.

chaosatom5065d ago

That looked like Ninja Gaiden than MGS. WTF??????????

40cal5065d ago

I looked like Ninja Gaiden to me also, but with something different maybe better.
But again, "set in the Metal Gear universe" is really all they have to say to me.

deafwing5064d ago

... Kojima productions has changed the MGS series from Tactical Espionage Action to "Lightning Bolt Action" .. in other words if you're looking for stealth gameplay, most likely you won't find it here.

Kleptic5064d ago

^^Kojima made it very clear that he was only overseeing MGR...not directing it...It WON'T be a Metal Gear Solid game like fans are used to...probably the main reason Kojima himself said he was disappointed with it so far...

callahan095065d ago (Edited 5065d ago )

By far the coolest thing at the MS conference. I'm happy with what I see. It's not stealthy espionage like MGS normally is, but the game definitely looks fun and has that Kojima sense of humor with the watermelon cutting.

ThanatosDMC5065d ago

HAHAHAH! Cold is eating up this multiplat.

Megaton5065d ago

Personally, I liked it, but it's not Metal Gear. It's called Metal Gear, and it has Raiden, but it doesn't look Metal Gear at all.

MNicholas5064d ago

Graphics are a bit outdated but that's to be expected. The real-time slicing and lighting is great.

The shadows are low-res but this will probably be fixed by release. Environment textures are low res textures is low res, however, and that's a bit disappointing.

Also disappointing is the use of last-gen tricks like baked shadows rather than actual normal maps for things like the four small bumps on the mech's "hand." Hopefully these are just place-holders and will get proper shading by release.

Consoldtobots5064d ago

I don't understand why anyone is getting worked up over a trailer, I'll wait till I see ACTUAL gameplay footage before I pass judgement on what it's "better than". Many of you know the 360 has a track record of gameplay graphics that don't live up to their trailers. With PS3 it has been quite the opposite so I doubt rising is gonna win any graphics awards.

God_Of_Epicness5064d ago (Edited 5064d ago )

If this does not take up to 4 DVDs for the 360, then I won't be buying it for my PS3. 360 just holds everything back.

jessupj5064d ago

After seeing I'm telling you guys right now the sh*thead Australian gov is going to ban this game. Because cutting people up into 1000 pieces is too much fun and clearly needs to be censored....

goflyakite5064d ago

I've never played a MGS game but this trailer was cool.

Cutting people in pieces looks fun.

gamesmaster5064d ago

if there is no stealth stage implemented into the story anywhere, i'll cut cut cut my head off... I Like mgs becasue its not a hack and slash action game, (albeit mgs4 had some action elements) for me this is a step in the wrong direction.

They want hack and slash cause they have no patience.

Btw the game looked kinda laggy i hope they fix it

sikbeta5065d ago

Seriously...WTF!? Cut...Cut....Cut.... Keep Cutting....

No Solid Snake, No naked Snake/Big Boss = No MGS Game

Kahvipannu5065d ago

I kinda agree with you, Snakes/BB is heart of MGS games, I don't like Raiden. But art style looks pure MGS, and trailer was interesting too.

Consoldtobots5064d ago

this kinda reminds me of a modern day VR:missions from MGS2.

HurtfulTimez5064d ago

have you somehow played it long enough for you to realise there are no Metal Gears or are you just being stupid? every Metal Gear fan knows that the Metal Gears are actually the Robotic Machines the charcater has been sent in to destroy. So yes it is a Metal Gear game obviously it does not have snake because its not about him its abot Raiden so if it doesnt have any Metal Gears when the game is released your point is valid up until that point...

you FAIL.

Sheikah5065d ago

what was up with the Hatake Kakashi look of Raiden :o\?

hamoor5065d ago

Why everybody is acting like they are surprised???
ITS MOTHER FICKING RAIDEN HOW DO YOU WANT HIM TO FIGHT???
sheesh fanboys are really pissing me off

despair5065d ago

umm You ever play MGS2...that was raiden and it was stealth...so uh yea.

ThanatosDMC5065d ago (Edited 5065d ago )

They had to make Raiden cooler from MGS2. Kojima even announced that he was surprised people hated Raiden. So he was made cooler in MGS4.

table5064d ago

Although hamoor is wrong, he is right in respect that you do fight with blades in MGS2. I think a lot of people round here are forgetting the blade fights toward the end of the game and this trailer looked distinctly similar to that style. I think a lot of the ps3 fanboys round here arn't really mgs fans, otherwise they would have noticed this in a flash.

DARK WITNESS5064d ago

@ThanatosDMC

exactly.... some people really don't make sense.

Look at all the hate Raiden got in mgs2.. then people complain he plays different now.

come on, In MGS4 everyone was going off their rocks about how cool the cut scene was with Raiden fighting Vamp and how awesome it would have been to play that... ok, well now you got a whole game playing like that... now everyone is complaining again cos they want him to play like he did in MGS2.

honestly after seeing him in MGS4 I thought it's nice to see them expand on that. MGS4 is cool ( it's still my favorite exclusive on the ps3 ) but why would I want to play as Raiden if he is just going to play the same as Snake, I may as well just stick with 4.

If this was exactly the same game exclusive to the ps3 you lot know you would be shafting yourselves all over your Tv with the ZOMG it's AMAZZINGZ BEST GAME EVER - We Love you Kojima and you are a god and all that crap !.... but no, it's multiplat so it automatically falls into lets find a reason to hate it.

I loved it, and it was by far the coolest thing to come out of MS pathetic excuse of a sadass conference. I am happy it's multi, everyone gets to enjoy it.

AWESOME!

squallheart5065d ago

well remember this game is being catered for western audiences, meaning just hack and slash. That is why its coming to the 360 since this style of game suits the console where as mgs4 was more strategy. After watching the trailer i pretty much new it was going to turn out like this when they announced it. Like a previous poster mention Ninja Raiden Sigma.

Kahvipannu5065d ago

MGS game strategy? I'm sorry, but I have to say that was hilarious.

Marquis_de_Sade5065d ago

Nonsense, MGS4 was the easiest MGS game to play with a run n gun style.

Fireseed5064d ago

This is what we call a new game, cause you know eventually without innovation it all becomes the same regurgitated crap. But I know, I know we can get to FF14, Gran Turismo 5, and Killzone 3 and its new and original, but as soon as Halo, and Gears gets a third game it becomes milk.

MysticStrummer5065d ago

Agreed. Pass. I don't care how much they cyborg him up, Raiden is my most hated MGS character. Hack and slash games don't normally do much for me anyway. I'm into Greek mythology so the God of War games were awesome, but Dante's Infero, Ninja Gaiden, Devil May Cry, Darksiders... meh. Just not my type of game in general.

In the 17 minute documentary they talk about the Metal Gear Solid port for Game.Com, the cancelled Metal Gear Solid: Rising concept, and ideas that were cut from Metal Gear Solid 2, among other things.

@Erik7357

Obama banned mulsims too? So whats you point. It all of the sudden tpeople have a opinion on it due to not liking trump. But didn't care when Obama did it in 2011. Liberal Hypocrites.

ravinash2642d ago

He's been in barely a week, and all he does is create policies that give the appearance that he's doing something to please the people that voted for him. Nothing that is actually effective mind you.
He promises to build a wall, says Mexico has to pay for it - Mexico says it won't pay for it = no wall.
Even if the wall was built, if people are determined to get in, they will either climb or tunnel through, so the wall is completely pointless.

Then the ban on people from 6 Muslim countries. Basically creates a lot of hardship for innocent people (a lot of whom are american) because it's stopping families from being together.
And again it's ineffective because if someone really wants to get in (fake passport or go through one of those tunnels under the wall), then they will.
Even if they didn't, most of the attacks these days have been brainwashed people who were already living in America.

This just shows a president who is more concerned with the appearance they give rather than creating an actual thought out action plan to make the world a better place.

JunMei2642d ago

I'm not sure if he's serious or not. Needless to say, any time a country tries to make things overwhelmingly in its favor, making things unfair for everyone else, that's when countries stop doing business with that country. Which then causes exports from that country to falter, since it loses out on trade.

The most promising games that never saw a release

VGS: 'Part of the excitement in gaming comes from watching a game be unveiled, following its news updates and eagerly awaiting the day of release. But there are times when it never gets to that final part. Either the game is cancelled, put on hold indefinitely, or becomes ‘vaporware’ - meaning, we simply never hear from it again. Here are some games that never saw a release, but that did look rather promising.'

Agent20093836d ago

I'm still disgruntled by Kojima's decision to cancel the original Metal Gear Solid: Rising's concept. It was absolutely ambitious: an open world stealth slasher with an ability to cut literally everything to make your way through... without enemy's notice.

I guess it was just too beautiful to happen.

Nyxus3836d ago

Yeah the idea was very cool but they just couldn't get the concept together. It's a shame but maybe they will do something with the material they have some day.

-Foxtrot3836d ago

I know right, in my opinion the game we got was horrible compared to what could of been. The Rising game we got seemed out of place for being a MGS game even despite being a spin off.

Eight Days hopefully will make it's way to the PS4 one day, the gameplay back in 2006 looked amazing. Imagine what it will look like now

Kenshin_BATT0USAI3836d ago

Rising is actually canon. LOL

Also, although it seems out of place. It was by no means a bad game. Terrible story, but gameplay was AMAZING.

-Foxtrot3836d ago

Get out...really, it's now cannon

I thought Kojima said it was a non cannon spin off...christ sake <sigh>

Dagobert3836d ago

I was seriously looking forward to Konami's MGS Rising. That was supposed to be an actual prequel to MGS4 where the storyline made sense. The new one just sucked honestly, it would have made a great Bayonetta game where gameplay is fun and storyline is just stupid.

zeal0us3836d ago

Blame the development for not being able to get the action and stealth element together.

ChipChipperson3836d ago (Edited 3836d ago )

The original concept for Rising definitely looked way better. It just had that swiftness and accuracy to the whole cutting mechanic. There was a certain, I suppose, elegance and finesse to the way they had Raiden move and how he fought. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed Revengeance for what it was, but I was really looking forward to what Kojima Productions was going for, both gameplay wise and story wise. Who knows, maybe one day they will use concept for a new Rising game that is made by Kojima Productions or possibly a new IP from them.

Nyxus3836d ago

I agree, while I did enjoy MG Rising, the previous concept did look and sound intriguing, and I was interested in that story focusing on Raiden's transition to cyborg ninja.

Murad3835d ago

I totally agree with your statement, but now that I'm thinking about it, if he did do it, it would be very difficult in terms of programming. The reason why is because every time, let's say hypothetically, Raiden cut something, that dataStructure would have to look completely different, or disappear and be replaced, there would be far too much to necessary power to be put on different systems, I believe, unless I'm thinking of programming this game completely the wrong way.

And when I was saying this spin off game was going to do so poorly long before it came out. People just clicked disagree, lol. I know the gaming market. :cool:

Same with MGS5. People will buy it for sure. But it won't have the impact MGS4 did. More so changing out David Hayter for no real reason at all. But more for a personal one of Kojima's. Many diehards did not like that at all!

A lot of the games history died in MGS4. Now it's become just some game. Will be interesting to see how it plays out.

TheDivine3835d ago

Idk I really didnt care for MGS4, it was too action focused, stealth meant nothing, the story was horrendous, along with many other things like lack of memorable boss fights. Still, MGS is as awesome to me as always. The game didnt live up to snakes last mission in my eyes but it was still a good game. The series is still amazing for sure.

I do agree axing David Hayter was a HORRIBLE thing to do. He is Snake. The series is def going more TPS and mainstream. I'm worried how Kojima will manage to keep it stealthy in an open world setting. I have my worries but Kojima has delivered time and time again so I will trust him and hope he makes me feel like a fool for doubting him lol.
