Metal Gear Rising: Revengence!

[Mad Pierrot]

Guys now in Youtube we have access to the full versions of the songs used in the games. The mixes are epic. Check the channel from these videos. Also, we need to make a poll involving favorite themes and bosses, what do you think?

[Kyero Fox]

Self, stop using your phone to read topics

[kenjiharima]

imho they cannot trash this game that well recived, because most of them cannot even find bugs on the full game, unlike DmC which almost every week there is a bug posted on youtube and in most cases of people that bought the game it freezes. Also bosses here in MGR have highly intelligent AI's. Don't move they come at you slowly then hit you.

Yep just got my copy. Now playing the hell out of it!

[kenjiharima]

On another topic.

Man...even now they complain about the MGR manuals? Jeez...lots of trolls these day.

Now that the game is out and the tables have turned, what do you expect to happen? A game should not be exempt from criticism just because of the studio behind it. Platinum games isn't infallible. I too hate what happened with DmC, but that shouldn't make me gloss over MGR's mistakes.

And while the fanbase might be idiots, they are supportive of the games they do like/have interest in (see fgc).

Reciprocity, in these circumstances, is never the answer. I'm not saying one side is completely innocent, but Capcom's fanbase as of late has gotten really bad and stupid.

@jb8 You're right concerning Metacritic. But I stand by my point on the grounds that (rational) users are just like you and me they'll give their thoughts on how they feel if a game was worth their money.

Like I said before, if you feel you got your enjoyment out of a game then good for you. The main reason I brought up DmC as an example was because I'm getting sick of the DmC fanboys trying knock another game down just to try and make them feel like the game they prefer is vastly superior. Sorry if it turned into a rant.

Soooooo went out early this morning, arrived just before our EB Games opened.... to find a huuuuuuge line outside of it. Was kinda worried that maaaaybe I wouldn't get my copy of Rising today..... until I realized they were all there for Crysis 3. So, got my copy/Gray Fox/Fox Blade/Artbook.... and played about.... 3-4 hours into it?

Honestly, I DO hear ALOT of people complaining about the length.... doesn't really matter to me. From what I've played so far, I'm gonna have alot of hours of replay value just perfecting these missions. Oh.... and everyone's going on about Sundowner's theme and all.... personal favourite so far would be Monsoon's~

[Chaos2Frozen]

So from what I could gather:

Wooden Sword: Find all the Men in Boxes
Armor breaker: collect all ID chips (left arms)
Stun Blade: Find all data storage items
Machette: find 10 data storage items
Long Blade: 1st place in all VR missions

In addition, you only get the wigs after completing the game... Armor Breaker as well from what I heard...

I'm only worried whether you need to do so in one complete playthrough Cause I've been jumping chapters...

Actually it's just me I like Monsoon's as well, but more for the instrumental than the vocals.

[Chaos2Frozen]

I don't think anybody mentioned this yet-

Spoiler for before Monsoon battle, not plot related:

Right bfore fighting Monsoon the game would go into first person view.

Pay attention to the right most cyborg the white ninja cat from the first chapter makes a reappearance.

Finally it reached my country and it is stupendously expensive. RM 279 for PS3 version. The retailers said that is the cheapest price they can offer. At least on the sticker on its box, it says it had some free disk-locked "DLCs".

I hate to make a comparison but Mass Effect trilogy cost at least RM 299 but with three different games in one box with some free(once not) DLCs each. God of War Saga(5 games) only cost RM 209.

[Kyero Fox]

I tried to play on revengence as my first run. I got destroyed lol

You realized that those are 'collection packs' of games several years old?

At least it also came with several of them, which is a fair price for me. As for the game itself I would love to play it but not buying it. Too bad my country don't have a service which you can rent the games instead of buying them.

[Chaos2Frozen]

I've completed 5/20 of the VR missions and unlocked the Red (or rather 'orange') armor for Raiden.

The description indicated that it has a decrease in defense and it consumes energy faster, but it also absorbs energy faster.

Lots of instant kills I would imagine

Yes, all you have to do is wait several years then maybe Rising would be as cheap.

Ok got it today...

In a broken DVD-case, the Steelbook is missing and the Cyborg Ninja DLC code not working...
Despite this, the DVD itself works fine, now i'm torn between reporting & sending it back to my retailer or simple play it. :-/

Well, maybe thier are nice enough to send the steelbook... I won't need a new DVD-case then...

[Kyero Fox]

Send it back, Theres no excuse for what you got. I'd send it in and demand a refund AND the product.

[Kyral]

I filed a complain now, with everything that was wrong/missing/not working... now let's see how they react to my demands.

If they want it returned, heck, so be it. A few days not playing is not really a loss now.

[Kyero Fox]

Good, hope it doesn't take too long. But yea, I'm not gonna lose any sleep over not being able to play for a few days. Hell I got my game from gamefly yesterday and I only played the first part up to blade wolf.

[kenjiharima]

DLC codes will work on the 21st till the MGR shop is up on PSN/Xbox Live.
As for the other case, I guess send it back get a new item.

Hey guys having problems with Mitsurugi...err...Sam can you help any techniques I need to buy?

I'm not even there yet Sorry.

EDIT:

I know we've seen a ton of reviews by now, but I thought I'll share this one because it's quite entertaining

(Don't be fooled by the first part, he loves it )
