Maniacal is the best way to play this cutting game, dashing into gunfire and shoving your sword through any obstacle, no matter its size or perceived deadliness. The supporting characters occasionally plead for planning, stealth, restraint - hesitation - but their calls come across as denial against the true nature of Revengeance. They're right in the middle of some seriously sexed up Fruit Ninja fan-fiction.
The silly portmanteau is the prelude to a starring role for Raiden, the formerly feeble stand-in for Snake in Metal Gear Solid 2. Following the events of Metal Gear Solid 4, which turned him into a twirling killing machine and redeemed him in the eyes of bros everywhere, the fair-haired cyborg works for a protection outfit called Maverick Security Consulting. Their first presidential client in Revengeance is butchered and thrown off a moving train, so I wouldn't recommend them.
After an ignominious defeat, Raiden's body is rebuilt with augmented strength, a pristine cyber-butt and a critical reliance on electrolytes, which must be absorbed from glowing enemy spines (unnaturally). It sounds gruesome, but extracting power cords in battle is a clinical process in the mind, and a brilliant hook for an action game.
That sounds awesome. May have to check that one out.

And another Crysis 3 review. Good quote: "The game is not quite as thriller as its technology or as thriller as the other games in the series"

Report: PS4 Launches In November With $429 And $529 Models
I guess we'll find out tomorrow.
Crysis 3
Game Informer (85/100): "This impressive graphical fidelity takes a serious hit in the transition to multiplayer. Though Crysis 3 has some of the better-designed maps in the series, the muddied textures are a far cry from the jaw-dropping visuals of the single-player campaign, especially on consoles."
IGN (85/100): "It's not quite a next generation experience come early, but it's a superbly controlled, tightly paced and tactically flexible shooter with a satisfyingly focused story, and an excellent way to tie up the Crysis series... for now."
Destructoid (75/100): "Crysis 3 attempts to strike a balance between Crysis and Crysis 2, but in doing so manages to lose a little bit of what made each game appealing. The result is a title that doesn't truly match the open-ended excitement of the first game nor the revelatory empowerment of the second, yet manages to provide enough of both to at least tantalize, even if it doesn't completely satisfy."
GamesRadar (70/100): "A gratifying shooter experience. Even though the campaign is on the shorter side, there are a few visual hiccups, and some of the enemy AI is unbalanced, those small gripes get overshadowed by Crysis 3's tactical gameplay, beautiful environments, and superb online multiplayer. While not treading new ground for the FPS genre, Crysis 3 is a solid shooter."
VideoGamer (60/100): "By the end of the game I was bored silly, and considering the scope of what was going on that shouldn't have been the case. Sadly, bar a few exceptions - a Jurassic Park-style hunting section in long grass, an open-ended assault on Ceph AA emplacements - I'd rinsed and repeated the same thing so much that I couldn't care less."
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance
Polygon (90/100): "Platinum Games has done something incredibly rare: honoring a beloved series while successfully broadening its reach into a whole new genre.
Eurogamer (90/100): "If Revengeance didn't have camera issues this would be the easiest 10 I've ever given. As things stand it's still brilliant, staking out new territory in the genre and adapting certain Metal Gear characteristics so well that it makes the competition look outrageously bad. This is simply the ultimate one-man show, worth its ticket price many times over, an experience that improves exponentially as it gets faster and as you get better.
Giant Bomb (80/100): "A thrilling and engaging experience. The swordplay is fun, and it's really fascinating to see the different spots where either Kojima's or Platinum's signature styles shine through. It also has a wild final confrontation that shows elements of both."
Game Informer (78/100): "If you have any hopes for this story building on Metal Gear lore or giving you a chance to reconnect with characters you care about, you will be disappointed. The new characters are uninteresting and poorly developed, and the old characters are practically non-existent."
OPM: (70/100): "Sadly, the combat doesn't have enough depth to trouble the genre's best (it certainly can't touch Ninja Theory's DmC reboot), and there's a disappointing disposability about the whole experience. This is a project that has been rightfully and respectably salvaged, but one that can't quite cut it at the top.
Sounds a lot better than MGS4.
I've played every Metal Gear Solid so far and 1 (I finished that one) is the only one I could make it more then an hour in. Just not my thing.
I've been playing the shit out of some Ni No Kuni. Played for another 4 hours today and I'm about 33 hours in. I just got my dragon.
The combination of open-world and New York, the graphics, the bow. I've read things man, seen MP videos. It'll be a strong title. Maybe "phenomenal" is too strong a word though.Quote:

"Revengeance" looks like a kick-ass action game, and that the story is pretty much unimportant, skippable nonsense is a definite plus for me.
I love watching someone play MGS, but I BLOW at that game. I literally cannot get more than ten minutes in without being stuck.
MGRR is $54 on Amazon. FYI
Sounds like there might be more time playing than watching.Quote:

Your face is a terrible comeback.
Anyway, I was legitimately shocked by the

part of Final Fantasy VI. Great game.
But really- I enjoyed every single second of MGS4 and before its release, I was a big fan of the series and Hideo Kojima's work.
That's how I feel the reception of Tree of Life was last year for MC.
It's been generally stated that if you weren't a fan of the MGS series before MGS4 was released, there's a good chance you would not enjoy the game as much, especially since most of the time the game is reliving scenes from previous games. If you hadn't experienced that in the past, you wouldn't understand the references.
I was a fan of the series. I liked the gameplay parts of MGS4, I just wish there was more of it. There's a part where you spend a few minutes watching Raiden sword fighting robots, and then you're like 'why aren't I controlling this?'.Quote:
