MG: Revengeance demo & Hollywooda cuming now dated.

[Bob]

it's Metal Gear in name only.

Metal Gear - Solid

Metal Gear - Revengance.

That's why I didn't use the suffixes fella

So it's the same words to indicate the same franchise.. it's not. Now go and have a lie down.. I'm sure all that wanking over concept arts tired you out.

So! anyone?

Had a very quick go very late last night i didn't really pay any attention to the tutorial or what I was supposed to be doing but it seems pretty cool, i like the blade control &
slashing guys up into bits is fun!.

But you can tell its gonna be a very linear experience that probably wont raise any bars or fill any voids till MGS5.

The thing is no matter how cool you are or how flash the gameplay is you just cant beat playing as Snake can you?....

Can we please try and move this thread further down the list? The thought of hollywooda ejaculating is making me physically sick.

I know we've spent the entire topic talking about this but I don't think not beating Snake is a bad thing. If this was a traditional MGS game then yeah, I'd probably agree (MGS2, anyone?) but considering it's not canon and a completely different style and genre I think comparing it to the old games is a bit pointless. Glad to hear you thought it was fun though!

Not played the demo yet myself since I don't have Gold at the moment but I'm not sure if I will or not. I won't be able to get it on release anyway so playing it will just make me want it even more.

Yeah, I gave it a play earlier today. First thoughts on the blade control were kinda the opposite though, it just seemed like frantically wobbling the right stick about to slash (because it is) and I'm not sure yet if it's that accurate. Suppose practice and time will show in regards to that though.

As for the rest, it felt like Bayo with a metal gear paint job even more than I expected; the (non blade swishing) controls are pretty much the same bar a few minor bits, the combos seemed to have the same timing and flow and the graphics engine is clearly identical. There were even a few character models which were clearly from Bayonetta (again, different paint jobs).

Not saying any of that's a bad thing, just sayin really.

Overall I think it should be alright, it's kinda hard to tell with the demo as there are clearly powers and lots of moves which aren't unlocked yet so you only get a feel of the basics and the blade stuff is either gonna take practice to master or be a bit shit and just in there because they can.

Deffo think I'll get it at some point just because of how much it feels like Bayonetta and I love that combat engine but not sure how the Metal Gear fanbase will receive it.

I've given this another proper go and yer its much awesome I really like it, the tutorial should give you more help with actual combat as fighting the last boss and trying to figure out the counter action can be frustrating, having on screen tips while someone is beating the tar out of you is never a good idea.

But when the combat with a Cyborg clicks its effortlessly cool, just give one of them a few digs then go into blade mode
Which slows the action allowing you to angle your blade and take the competition apart, literally!!.

Slashing a Cyborg down the middle and pulling his guts out while he splits in two is an ohh yer! Moment and the game just oozes style, I'm looking forward to this now.

The Japanese press seems positive!
