Why Revengeance Will Be Twice The Game Rising Would Have Been — Pixels or Death

January 19, 2012 in Blog comments 9

Pixels or Death's Sean McGeady believes Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance will be twice the game Metal Gear Solid: Rising would have been, and for a few very simple reasons.

Where Rising would have restrained Raiden's well documented abilities, Revengeance will set him free. Revengeance will set you free. Revengeance will set us free. Free to do the things we have wanted to do since we were first introduced to Grey Fox on Shadow Moses.

"Snake and I watched as a blade danced through the air like a painter’s brush dances across its canvas. We watched as the perfect palette of Shadow Moses, a controlled mixture of calm whites and clear blues, was violated with sheer red."

    I guarantee there will be a sister article about why it will also suck.

    this doesnt make sense at all, its just a name change. and honestly having Revengeance in there makes it sound like its a sequel or prequel, dont understand whats wrong with simply Metal Gear Rising. Revengeance couldve been the special "directors cut" version like Substance/Subsistence.

    Yeah, the above is totally correct. They're exactly the same game. Just because the name's changed, doesn't mean the gameplay is any different.

      Umm then you clearly didn't follow the game. Metal Gear Solid Rising was COMPLETELY different to Reveangence before it was given to Platinum games the gameplay was entirely different. Go look up MGSR videos and compare it to revengeance

        they only recently changed the name to Revengeance. or recently announced it. i doubt Platinum just started working on it at the same time as the name change.

          When Kojima dropped the project, Platinum games took over the project and completely changed the tone. Whether or not the game will be good is irrelevent. However, what people wanted was a stealth/action game. Platinum completely threw out the stealth part. It could definitely still be great, but pissed off a lot of people.

          yeah it looks a lot more "Devil May Cry" now and less realistic i guess, but i think its ok to go over the top with a Raiden game as opposed to a Snake game.

          are you still gonna be able to cut anything in half like before?

          The name change is to reflect the change in developers. As Red 9 said Kojima dropped the project and Platinum picked it up (mainly because development was going too slow) and platinum pretty much only knows one thing. Over the top action.

    Set us free? What a load of crap. Rising or Revengeance would have been great regardless of which one came out.
