Yes. Metal gear Rising. Not Solid anymore. Also, they changed the concept of "Lighting Bolt Action" and "Zan-datsu" to "Revenge".

Also confirms the rumors of Rising being developed by Platinum games alongside with Kojima Productions.



Looks badass. But as Kojima said, Some metal gear fans may not like Rising.

Oh yeah, and I'm not sure, but I think that's Quinton Flynn's voice (Raiden's VA), which confirms his presence in Rising as well.

EDIT: Changed trailer link. Hurry and watch it before it gets deleted.
EDIT2: Thanks for the mirror, soulx.

I was watching the trailer and was thinking it looked like a Bayonetta and Vanquish mish mash. Than I sae the Platinum games logo at the end and laughed. I like Platinum, they've produced good stuff so I'm interested in this.

I know little about this game. How does this fit into metal gear and what controls are they using for this?

And... That other guy in the trailer looks a bit like vamp. I dunno.
Say what? If you are talking about my mii in Mario Kart, that not my real mii.

@below Oh... :lol:

Did that trailer even tell us anything? It's was cool and all but I want more info on the plot. Showing the word "revenge" a bunch of times doesn't do much.

Thanks Densetsu.

So true. I guess the mods could merge both threads.
Merged 'em :)
Alright, thanks =D.

Also I suggest that you add the video in the first post, OP.
Code:

It's worth to quickly recap as to "why" the sub-title changed.

The saga started with Metal Gear 1 and 2, both reffering to stealth games with a bird's eye view on what's going on. There was also the bastard child, Snake's Revenge, with "no" sub-title since it's basically junk and even Kojima believes it was a mistake. These were followed by the Solid series, reffering to the same "style" of gameplay, but in full 3D instead of bird's eye. Now comes Rising, a down-to-the-core action game where the emphasis is put on sword fighting. It's not a "Solid" game, hence a different title. It also revolves around a slightly different story arc, focusing on Raiden rather than Snake or Big Boss.

Sorry, but what's "bird's eye?"

And, well, MGS2 focused on Rather than Snake or big boss.

No problem.

And I thought the same thing when Raiden was fighting that guy on top of the train...looks kinda like Vamp.

But I really like the stealth aspect of MGS...this looks more like a hack-and-slash, which has never really appealed to me. I'll just have to see how the reviews go once the game is actually released.

Bird's Eye view in Metal Gear 2:

While it is true that MGS 2 also featured Raiden as the playable character, I don't think it was "revolving" around him, the focus was still on Snake, plus the game was also within the Solid story arc, so there was no need to change the title then. It played very much the same as the previous MGS. Here, it's completely different.

To further prove the point, I'm reminding y'all about Metal Gear: Ghost Babel, which was "wrongly" released in the west as Metal Gear Solid for the Gameboy Colour. That game also featured the same bird's eye view and took place outside the continuity of Solid series, hence the difference in the title. Of course not that NOE and NOA cared - they wanted to sell the game and the "Solid" in the title was a guarrantee of sales despite the fact that the game had little to do with the "Solid" continuity and continues to mindfuck people who try to put it somewhere within the timeline.

Same can be said about Ac!d games. Not in the Solid continuity - not called Solid, simple as that.

Thanks, and true. I just hope this game doesn't stay too away from the MGS saga.

Me neither, but as Kojima said...

“If somebody thinks I love Snake and just really wants traditional stealth gameplay and that experience, then it may be hard to get into Rising but for people who are more open and willing to try new things, it shouldn’t be a problem. Raiden in MGS 4 was received very well, and I wanted to keep going with that direction in Rising. The people who liked him in 4 will like him in this, but it’s a personal preference”
