METAL GEAR RISING: REVENGEANCE

Play this game. This is peak. Even if you aren't a metal gear fan, this can be played without context from metal gear solid. GIVE US METAL GEAR RISING REVENGEANCE 2

Holy shit do I love this game. Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is literally the definition of badass.
The gameplay is where this game shines the most. Kojima is known for making absolutely crazy stories, ones that just are so far out yet still so amazing to experience. The whole story feels like a fever dream. The final boss, Senator Armstrong, is barely talked about for the entire game, shows up in the last 90 minutes, most of which being a cutscene, and still lands right on the dot of being an amazing antagonist and a stellar boss fight. Speaking of cutscenes, I actually loved how cinematic the game was. One of my favourite things. The soundtrack is one of, if not the best video game soundtrack ever. The entire game is a massive adrenaline rush. Especially for the final boss fight. The games first boss has you jumping from rocket to rocket as this crazy fast intense music plays. "RULES OF NATURE". The only thing I despise about this game is how short they made it. The main story can casually be beat in under 5 hours, but even so, those 5 hours will be the best time of your life.
10/10 game.

This game is amazing if you like Cyborg Ninja's game's but if you like me it's also another Chapter in the Metal Gear Solid world but as the Name says this is Jack the Ripper's story and it also give's us the chance to see why Solid Snake protected her from the moment she was Born.

This game has a pretty big learning curve. However, Once you get past that this game is an absolute blast.

Fun game, great combat, lots of replayability but short, finished it in like 5 hours. It's story is kinda bad but funny.

A really cool game was included with the soundtrack

I wish I could recommend this game; there's a lot of great style and substance to the combat, strong music, good bosses. Unfortunately its lackluster story won't get out of the way--even skipping as much as possible, on replay, there is constant whiplash as you're pulled out of gameplay to listen to a codec or skip a cutscene.

I'd love to see a sequel with less yappin' and more slashin'.

Just played the first few minutes and I am already sold. Would hack and slash again.

Game released over 10 years ago and I wish I had played it sooner.

The gameplay was solid, there were pointers where the camera was a little rough in large groups of enemies or tight areas but otherwise was absolutely manageable. There were a ton of fights and adjusting to the playstyle was very rewarding and fun. The bosses were cool and I loved that there were so many legitimate boss fights where I had to 1v1 a strong character and have to figure out their moves in order to win the fight.

Lastly, the soundtrack. This game has possibly the best soundtrack I have ever heard. The music added so much to the boss fights, it got me so hyped that I felt like I could run through a wall. Absolute masterpiece of music selection,

I would absolutely recommend this game.

This game's got it all. Over the top violence, awesome music, awesome gameplay, political commentary, a villain you realize is only wrong in his methods, cyborgs, a sense of humor, horrible experiments on children and you throw a Metal Gear in the first 20 minutes!

first time in ages i had a game night™, just like the good 'ol days before I GOT RESPONSIBILITIES!

I'm really glad i listened to my instincts and finally gave it a shot, i'm 21 years old and never got around to play this game when it was out for PS3. Well i'm glad i waited cause knowing me when i was young i wouldn't have paid attention, the story is refreshing in a way that i felt like i needed to do what the story was asking me to do, i felt motivated to see it too the end. The combat is unlike anything i have ever experienced before it has a certain mechanic that no game has ever done.

I would highly recommend this game to anyone that enjoys a good story, and spectacular combat 10/10

STANDIN IN, I REALIZE....

Gameplay 8/10
Soundtrack 10/10
Nanomachines, son 10/10

Overall 9/10

Great game and great mechanics. Just wish the camera wasn't so janky. Lost a lot of fights where a mastiff, raptor, or boss went near the border and I had to somehow parry when my camera kept resetting to default.

This is one of the most timeless masterpieces that keeps getting better and better every single day it passes since we were blessed by its release. Don't miss out on absolute bliss incarnate in game form. Get it, finish it, replay it, S rank it, and the experience will sear your soul forever.

This game's combat with parry/deflect mechanic make my snake solid again for the first time since Sekiro.

Comentario Analítico: "Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance"

En Febrero del 2013 estrenó Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance para PS3 y XBOX 360 (Llegando a PC en Septiembre del 2014), un Spin-off desarrollado por PlatinumGames y planteado al estilo Hack and Slash que tanto los caracteriza.

Volvemos a encarnar a Raiden (y esta vez sin engaños), cuatro años tras los acontecimientos de Guns of the Patriots y en su conflicto contra una organización militar privada que promulga la violencia y la soberanía de los fuertes por sobre los débiles. Por cuán genérico que suene, Metal Gear Rising entiende cómo subvertir a las expectativas, quizá lo hace por medio de escenas ligeramente mal planteadas, pero indudablemente efectivas. Por desgracia una enorme porción del argumento quedó relegado al Codec.

En términos jugables es un absoluto acierto. Es intuitivo, cómodo y gratificante, logra hacerte sentir mejor de lo que realmente sos y sé que cuando lo haya completado al 100% voy a extrañar el Blade Mode, es una mecánica tan inusual que incluso a más de 12 años de estreno continúa sin competencia; eso sí, la recta final te encaja un jefe, una zona minúscula y luego otros dos jefes sin darte un respiro.

Además de contar con una selección musical fabulosa, durante los combates se ejecutan dos pistas musicales simultaneamente, una instrumental y otra vocal; la vocal se conserva en silencio y se desmutea cuando llegamos al climax del combate. Es de lo más gratificante y orgásmico, un espectacular uso de la música dinámica.

Esta edición para PC viene de serie con los DLCs, que van desde cosméticos y armas hasta las VR Missions y las campañas de Blade Wolf y Jetstream Sam; por desgracia ninguna de éstas termina de valer la pena. Las VR Missions son desafíos y tutoriales, y las otras dos son pequeñas misiones alternativas que te fuerzan a revisitar escenarios de la campaña base.

¿En conclusión? Doktor, turn off my Yuu Tejima inhibitors.

❖ The soundtrack is absolute cinema (god-tier).
❖ Raiden is a very well written character to relate with.
❖ The combat mechanic is pretty solid (I sucked at parrying = skill lssue).

❖ Each villains are memorable to this date (which is impressive).
❖ The skill tree is actually useful (to a extent).
❖ Slice and dice literally anything.
❖ 10/10: Would recommended anyone to play MGR: Revengeance.

Side note: I'll vote for a specific U.S. senator that can destroy social medias spewing lies and defamation. Amen.

Insane combat game play and an amazing story mode!

i know i only have 4 hours on steam, but ive beat this game like hundreds of times on xbox, and have a few hundred hours, really enjoy this game, and its my favorite metal gear game, very ahead of its time. if you are thinking about getting it you should, amazing game (also boob posters are in the game so peak)

good challenge with great combos and gameplay that rewards skill

A great action game that's annoyingly hampered by its questionable control scheme for parrying and the shoddy camera.

The camera has a mind of its own which I can only describe its behaviour as a slithering fucking snake across the screen, seriously ive looked up raidens ass more times then I can count, the last boss can be infuriating with this camera as you would sometimes miss parry opportunitys as the camera would rather face something else, leading you to get hit, mad annoying.

Besides that the games awesome one of platinums best games, the soundtrack is legendary, bosses are fun and memorable, plot is typical metal gear nonsense jacked to 11, the memes of this game are more popular than the game itself these days.

Game length is only like 7 hours long so a pretty short game by todays standards, the difficulty does offer some good challenge just on hard, very hard ramps it up with more cancer enemy placements for you to enjoy, and the hardest difficulty Revengeance mode is pretty much parry perfectly or end up in block stun or die, although this is also in your favour if you're good at parrying, you can pretty much melt enemies in Revengeance if you can perfect parry on que as it does so much damage compared to the other modes.

Took 10 hours of trying various guides online to get it to launch played for a bit and no it doesn't work again. unacceptable to charge money for this

Combat in this game is incredible, the story is peak. I would Raiden and his sexy cyborg heels.

One of the best games ive ever played, i love slicing up muscular men with a glowing red katana that an acquaintance of an acquaintance tried to stab me with, while blasting the best music ive ever heard, at volumes so high it isnt music anymore, rather a sound.

10/10 would recommend

Pros:
- The combat is a surprising twist on both the usual Metal Gear stealth formula and Platinum's Spectacle-fighter style, almost feeling at times like a prototype for Fromsoft's Sekiro while feeling more like a DMC title.
- Combos are fluid, the parry system is really fun to master, and the Blade Mode makes tearing through enemies an absolute blast.
- MOST enemies are really fun to fight, all having their own unique strategies and challenges to keep you busy.
- The soundtrack is sublime, between the more ambient tracks between fights to the pumping lyrical songs. Red Sun is peak boss music.
- On that note, the bosses are some of the best-designed fights in a hack-n-slash.
- The story is extremely over-the-top while still feeling genuine and compelling. Its repeated use of the term "memes" is both hilarious and thought-provoking. It will make you laugh one moment and have you deeply disturbed the next (especially during File 4's finale with the server room scene).

Cons
- Some enemies were very clearly meant to be faced one-on-one, but because this is a Ninja Gaiden-esque hack-n-slash said enemies tend to be put in groups. Gekkos are cool in one-on-ones but when there's two of them and/or a group of mook cyborgs it can get really annoying. Same with Mastiffs and those dinosaur guys I forgor the name of.
- While parrying is cool, having said parry be mapped to the default attack button with a flick input is... baffling, to say the least. You might want to keep up a combo chain before going into a parry, only to go INTO a parry way too early and get hit, completely ruining your groove.
- While Platinum titles are usually short by nature, MGR is SHOCKINGLY short, with only 8 main levels, some of which being really short transitional chapters and others being just a boss. So in reality there's only like... 4 full length levels? 6 if you count the Sam and Bladewolf chapters.
- VR missions suck.

YMMV
- The game does feature stealth sections if you wanna put up with them. Unfortunately I haven't played the other Metal Gear games (yes I'm missing a lot of story context shut up) but this is passable, and aside from a couple hostage situations (especially the one in File 5) the stealth was rarely an issue.
- For whatever reason the PC ver flat out lacks a framerate option. Which is fine for the most part since the game was made for 60fps and can hit that on most rigs, but if you're someone who likes their games over 60 you might be pissed. Not helping is the fact the game runs at 59fps for... some reason, which leads to microstutter.
- There's no way to view the inputs for attacks on the customize screen, meaning you have to go out of your way to pull up the help menu to see what you just unlocked.
- While the steam page specifically advertises the boss replay and cutscenes options, both of these are hidden behind doing the DLC levels, which can catch you off guard. Not helping is the fact that said levels, especially Sam's story, are extremely difficult compared to the base game.

Let er rip. Goated gameplay, goated music. Now i want to play the older ones.

First game that made me want to grind for 100% achievements, just 12 more achievements to go.

this game, it's absolutely perfect right down to the small things, some glitches here and there, i blame that on steam, but that aside, as i Devil May Cry fan i thought this game was completely different but to my surprise it feels a lot like Devil May Cry and that made it easy to learn, i recommend to anyone familiar with Fast Hack and Slash.

his game is an absolute masterpiece. I had never tried such an experience before and I believe that there will not be a similar game that contains a story depth that resemble this game due to the fact that it include some sensitive topics. Overall, the gameplay was distinguish, the soundtracks were overwhelmingly great and suits the scenes and the characters were beyond perfect.

best. game. ever. best. soundtrack. ever. best. best. ever. would kill mom for this game

One hell of a great time! All the characters are memorable and the game is incredible. The mechanics are easy to learn but hard to master. If you're on the fence about this game, just get it. You won't regret it.

can't play on fullscreen because my screen resolution is too high for this game
why is this an issue when its not for any other game even before 2013?

This game is just a fever dream, adrenaline junkie, meme generator that pumps adrenaline straight into your veins and is the embodiment of the phrase "F*** YEAH". This game is probably also one of the easier hack-and-slash type games out there, since the mechanics are quite simple: Light attack, heavy attack, dash light, dash heavy, items, and a block/parry. (Quick note about the parry for anyone wondering, you have to press forward on the control stick AND the light attack button AT THE SAME TIME. Forward on the control stick is also in the direction of the enemy, and parrying is doing that right as the enemy hits you, not before). Also, there is a bullet time mode called Blade Mode, which, once an enemy is flashing blue, allows you to cut the enemy to pieces (also another quick tip, you can use the right analogue stick to aim your cuts if you're having a hard time cutting the target areas for the Zandatsu, or the way you recover Blade Mode gauge and health).
Neither of us have the time to cover the story, but just know it's amazing, and the Codec calls add a ton to the story (another note is if you're going for the Codec achievement, use the Codec while close to an enemy to get a special Codec conversation. This is why I missed the achievement on my first playthrough even though I was actively looking for more Codec conversations).
Last is the extra content: The VR missions, and the DLC missions. First, the VR missions are fun.... So long you aren't going for gold. Going for gold can slingshot you through half the store, so it's not worthless, but IT IS NOT FUN. The times are so strict, you have to use guides on the internet if you want to keep your sanity. Or, you know, just do them for fun and not gold. That works too. One more thing about the VR missions is that there are 70 missions total, 20 you find hidden through the campaign, and 50 that are DLC missions. You have access to the DLC missions straight away, but the main 20 you will need to find in the main campaign missions on laptops. They aren't that hard to find, I managed to find like 17 by myself, only a few I had to use a guide for.
As for the two DLC missions, one has you play as Blade Wolf, the other as Jetstream Sam. Unfortunately, these missions are kinda lackluster. The story for them are fine, but the gameplay, and more importantly, the content, are kind of lacking with them. First, with Blade Wolf's story, it's really short. There are three sections to it; the start, which is an introduction to the gameplay changes in Blade Wolf's moveset, showing this is more of a stealth mission rather than a combat themed one, which can be fun at times, the second part, where Blade Wolf attempts an escape, which is the meat of the game, and then the end when you fight the boss. The boss is the best part of the story, since it's a very well done boss, but aside from that, there isn't too much with it.
Next is Jetstream Sam's story, and hoo boy, I might get people mad with this, but I don't really like it. It has the same problem with Blade Wolf's story, in that it's short, with again, three sections, the sewers, the main building, and then the Armstrong fight, but the gameplay is more like Raiden's, as an all out combat style rather than stealth. However, this is where the problems come in with two minor changes: One is that his block doesn't block all damage, meaning anytime you get hit while blocking, you will take some chip damage, which is somewhat fine, since at this point, he doesn't have his augmentations yet, so of course he won't be as strong, and this encourages players to learn the game more by perfecting their skill in parrying instead of blocking, but this is where the second problem emerges: The Taunt. Jetstream Sam has a unique move where he taunts the enemy, making them mad for a short while. When this happens, the enemies take and deal more damage. The problem? THE DLC IS BALLANCED AROUND THIS. If you don't taunt the enemies, the game will come to a crawl since the enemies are REALLY tanky, meaning you have to use the taunt to make them take any substantial damage, but since this also makes them more agressive, and the taunt animation takes a while, though I can't remember if you can cancel it. In summary, you either play while knocking on death's door, or by playing at an incredibly slow pace.

While I would say more, I realize I said more about the DLC than I did about the main game. Point is, it's good. Really good. Get it if you're a fan of Hack-and-Slash games, a Metal Gear fan, or just curious about the MEMES, THE DNA OF THE SOUL. You'll have fun with it.

recentlly just finished my first playthrough and its a great game. its a ton of fun just running around and cuting enemies.
i also think that this is a game that you should try even if you usally play other style of games because i usally just play euro truck simulator 2 and loved this game when i tried it for the first time not so long ago and rn its my favriot game ever by far.

One of the most HELL YEAH games ever devised by complete accident actually. MGR:R is where stealth is hurled into the sun at terminal velocity while speed metal detonates your skull. THERE WILL BE BLOOD SHED!

MGR:R is supposed to be my jam, but the camera system is truly broken and I ended up getting frustrated with it. Furthermore, there's a bug that caps the fps to 30 if playing fullscreen, and you need to download a mod to fix it --this kind of things shouldn't pass a quality control to publish the game on PC--.
When the combat works, it is very enjoyable, but most of the time it doesn't work. The camera shouldn't rotate to the character's direction, it should be the other way around. This fact, in combination with the directional parry mechanic, makes me wonder if they just wanted to make the game worse on purpose.

Game where brain trafficking guy kills OBAMA and when beat him you have to fight sexy Australian twink, then you and funny dog have to fight against buff Donald Trump who uses the power of twitter and ratios against you, also Trump says something about omelettes 10/10

Great story, great OST, great everything except actually playing. The camera is is programmed by a moron; the lock on is supper buggy, the camera just snaps in a random direction one second after not using it, and during blade mode, it sometimes jolts around ruining your precision. Mechanics are HORRENDOUS; extreme overuse of stun and most of the combat is just button mashing the light attack over and over. Uncreative AI abilities that lead to frustrating scenarios of getting stuck parrying for long lengths of time, and possibly stunned by an unparry-able attack with no possible way to avoid it without being hit by some other AI's attack. Armstrong's boss fight is illogical and not intuitive. Overall the game is great in making you feel bad ass... when youre not fighting four consecutive stun attacks or button mashing one enemy for three minutes just to get an opening for blade mode.

The characters are amazing, especially Sam.
Story, also peak.
Music, that shi deserve a grammy

I'm not a huge fan of the Metal Gear solid games but this game was pretty good. The gameplay and action was quite good and easy to learn and master with enough practice. I do wish the campaign was longer and that you can do more things in the areas you go through and explore. Also I find the main character, Raiden, to be a bit of a hero cliche i'm getting tired of. He's like a more morally upright yet less vulgar and no nonsense version of Travis Touchdown which is funny since both characters have the same voice actor.

The politics, morals and ideologies clashing in this game is fun to watch and think about, albeit would have loved to see it more discussed and explored upon if the game was a little longer. Overall, this game is a must play for those who love intense hack and slashes.

This game has some of the funnest bosses and the soundtrack is PEAK. However, the rest of the game play is pretty boring.

Metal Gear Rising Revengeance is a 10/10 and is tied as my favorite MGS game with Snake Eater, I actually can’t think of a single problem with it, holy shit what a game!

This is one of the best games i have played. It is genuenley so saddening that its over for me but an amazing game with an even better sound track. Memes, DNA of the soul

great game if you like fun storys and cool action

very good, very satisfying, very gory. 10/10

very cool game but also can be unfuriating as hell. also the game is kinda easy ive done it all on hardmode so far

I'm not a fan of PC ports that needs mods to work (sort-of) properly, and while the game has its share of entertaining moments and good ideas, it's also the kind of misdesigned mess you'll probably need 2 playthroughs to even figure out how to play properly and by that time you'll be real good and tired of fiddling with the garbage camera and watching the Zandatsu animation for the 1000th time.

Metal Gear Rising ironically used Memes effectively to make sure it would live on forever. Truly rising to beyond human level of entertainment and ascending to MEME-like omnipresence!

8/10 Avarage story, fun slice mechanics, good combat
