Metal Gear Rising

Love Metal Gear? In the case I'm sure you love a stealth game. You are probably aware this isn't that. Think more God Of War Set in Metal Gear Universe. The graphics are slick, the controls are great, gameplay is awesome. Pre release this game was getting real stick from some fanboys. If you like the Metal Gear Universe you'll love this. My only gripe would be its not the longest game but with several difficulty modes to play through its go replay value cover. Not a Metal Gear fan? This could still be the game for you if you enjoy God of War style button mashing. The limited edition package is great for any MG fan as the figurine is amazing and can be posed really easily. A great addition to my office desk.

Metal Gear Rising is an amazing game. A quick reminder for those that are interested in getting into the Metal Gear franchise. This game is not a pure stealth game. It is mainly an action game with stealth elements. If you're looking to get into Metal Gear. Pick up the HD collection or download Metal Gear Solid 1 on the PS Network. That said, MGR is an excellent game. Developed by Platinum Games (creators of Vanquish and Bayonetta) and produced by Kojima Productions. This game is an shinig example of fusion between the two companies. MGR focuses more on making the character Raiden (Rye-den) more of a destructive force than a stealth master. The game feels like a more visceral Bayonetta, but without the tongue in cheek humour that Bayonetta has. As it deals with the Metal Gear universe, there are little homages packed in the game. The game itself is limited, but for what you get in the game can last for a long time and there is a lot of replay value with getting the trophies and completing it on the hardest difficulty. The only negative aspect of the game is that the camera can sometime hinder your progress, but its a small issue at that. Overall, MGR: Revengeance is a game well worth the money and a fine addition to the Meta Gear series.

A Cut Above

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition is very good. Firstly, the limited edition collection comes in a very impressive box with artwork by the MGS series artist Yoji Shinkawa. Once you open the box up, inside is a Play Arts Kai Raiden action figure with white armour. This one is exclusive to this box set and considering the regular edition Raiden retails at around £60, MGS fans should snap this up for the figure alone. However, the one downside to all this, is that the game itself unbelievably does not come in a steelbook. The game itself is superb, and the developer Platinum Games have crafted an excellent, action-packed adventure that is similar to other games they have created. However, without giving anything away, please note that this is not like a traditional MGS game in which stealth is the main emphasis. Instead, Raiden is an unstoppable cyborg that does not have to resort to sneaking (although it is possible to do so) so for the most part you will be attacking enemies head on with Raiden's sword and smooth attacking combinations. The boss battles are very typical of the solid series though. Overall, it's a good game that is well worth playing.

Best game

Whether or not you have ever enjoyed Metal Gear, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition is a must for anyone who appreciates melee-combat. Its simple, fast, and clean, with enough supporting content like additional weapons and secrets to encourage a campaign replay or more, if you find yourself obsessed with the idea of a no-kill run.

Being a huge and very long time fan of Metal Gear Solid, I was more than a little excited about Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition. The Zavvi exclusive version with the play arts Kai figure is well worth the money. The only downside is the game itself. The game is extremely hard on the normal difficulty mode, and if you change it to easy mode it loses its fun factor quickly. I found the graphics fantastic and the story compelling. It's just not quite the game I wanted and hoped it would be.

Great value

I strongly recommend Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition. The game is actually really enjoyable. Even though the game is a bit short, the customisation will keep you busy for a second, third or maybe a fourth play through. This edition also come with a Figure and some DLCs.

Great all round

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Limited Edition truly is a great addition to the Metal Gear universe. The game play is fast, fluid and unique, and the story definitely goes with the previous titles. I bought the special edition because I collect figures of the characters from games I like, and this makes a good edition to my collection. Also, the DLC costume which comes with this edition came in very useful, as it grants the ability to hold double the amount of healing units than the other ones, so that helped a lot on harder difficulties!
