Far Cry 3 And The Stranger In A Strange Land IN BRIEF: Konami will include a demo of the wonderfully titled Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance with Zone of the Enders HD this spring, it said today. The demo will show off several of the upcoming action game’s new combat mechanics.
Pure, 100% organic bananas. I mean, I know we should be expecting this, since it’s being developed by the guys behind Bayonetta, but still. Bananas.
There’s a simple rule publishers need to adhere to when it comes to live action marketing: either do it right, or don’t do it at all. Skimp on the quality, even just a little, and what you end up with will probably be a bit shit.
I just… don’t know what I’m watching. I’ve watched this new Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance trailer three times already and I still have no idea what’s going on. It’s like that weird video from Lost. Or pretty much anything from the Metal Gear Solid series.
The man leading development on Metal Gear Rising, former Capcom star Atsushi Inaba, sounds like he was prepared for the fan backlash stemming from the game’s VGA trailer over the weekend.
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. It’s a name Square Enix would be proud of, but before you go thinking some Japanese guy made it up by combining “Revenge” and “Vengeance” and nobody had the sense to tell him it was a stupid name, know that it’s a word that’s been used before.
If you’re making a game about slicing things up, shape your business card like a razor blade. We’ve got pictures here of the cards of Metal Gear maker Hideo Kojima and Atsushi Inaba, whose Platinum Games team is making the revived Metal Gear spin-off.
The first official screenshots for Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance are now on the brand new Metal Gear Solid website (where, oddly, the age-gate only goes back to 1960… stay away, old people!).
