My view of MGS4 was that Kojima wanted it done; so he tied up all the plot points no matter how he had to.

His husbando is BB; so he's sticking to that timeline now.

I've still not gotten around to playing through MGS4 (lawl no PS3), and while I've got access to one now, I'd rather not play through it with the fiance knowing absolutely nothing about the franchise. It's just asking for trouble.
Same reason I won't play Rising when she's around, no matter how fun it is.

I think Rising does a wonderful job of setting the status quo after the fall of the Patriots.

Snake and Big Boss' era of soldiery is done.

We Megaman X now.

Absolutely.

On another note, I just beat the game. The ending was interesting to say the least. Certain parts I really liked. I do wish we saw Rose and little Jack at least once, though.

EDIT: Whoa, I totally didn't notice it before, but Raiden's lifebar in stage 00 is the MGS4 life bar and it's from stage 01 on that it changes.

...aaand apparently Kojima loves the positive feedback, so he wants to do a Rising 2. So long as it's with Platinum.
Likely even in the FOX Engine.

It's so far the biggest title Platinum has ever released, and most likely the biggest they'll ever release unless they do a 2nd Rising. Making this it's proper franchise and taking on the job would be a golden goose for Platinum.

And with Kojima now fully supporting them where as before he "had" to be involved, They'll probably have a much larger resource pool.

What's good is that Kojima wants Platinum to do the series rather than just have his team do it. Though when his team did have control they failed miserably at making an action game.

Awesome.

I also love how Rising selling as it does, as well as being as well-received as it is, is allowing Kojima to 'experiment' with Ground Zeroes (he even thinks he might not be able to sell it, even if it gets released). He's pretty laid-back about it, too - "Don't worry! Rising's selling great!"

Kinda of an amusing thing I noticed about the Ray battle.

It kinda of mimics the battle between Snake/Rex and Liquid Ray in that you take out it's right arm, then it's left arm, then you go after it's head.

Haha, it does, doesn't it?

Just beat Rising, by the by. Hoooooly shiiit. That was the best final fight I've had in a Metal Gear game, period. MSG1 was... there, MGS2 lost me entirely with the plot, MGS3 tried too hard to be cinematic... but Rising? Dear fucking lord, that was awesome.

Gonna have to grab Bayonetta now, I suppose.

YES, Yes you should. Bayonetta's setting is literally the exact opposite Risings setting, but the fast pace and over the top action is just as great.

Actually, it's probably even more Over the top, especially when it comes to bosses. Plus you can find it cheap for like 10-20 bucks.


Also I know you're reading this Grahf. What happened to 100% Bayonetta? fufufufu

I got too hype about Metal Gear and got distracted. :o

I managed to get red bloomers ver. Bayo so that should help keep me on task when I pick it up again.

Y'all make me feel so old. Everyone's running around blasting through this, and I've only made it to 3 so far. Absolutely loving it, but I've just got no time any more.

Yes, but you have a life, a wife, and a real job.

You're living the dream we all wish for.

Also the 2 of them popping shut the visors at the same time was kind of cute.

EDIT: haha, I love how Raiden's voice completely changes when he calls Sunny and goes back to MGS2 raiden.

Beat the game on Normal over the weekend. Loved every moment of it, though I was hoping for a longer final stage before the giant Metal Gear.

There's a Metal Gear in this Metal Gear? Thanks for spoiling jerk!

EDIT: Eh....Is it technically a Giant Metal Gear and not just a Metal Gear?

I dunno. I just went with the name given in-game.

Incidentally, is that thing even capable of firing nukes like their predecessors, or have MGs/UGs evolved past the "Walking Silo" design?

It's pretty gigantic for your typical Metal Gear. It's definitively at least 3 or maybe even 4 times bigger than Rex or Ray. Though, that may be because it's very spider-like with its legs spread out.

I even think you posted a video of it called "CRAB BATTLE" earlier.

Finally finished the game. Japanese version costed like 50% more, but fuck, that was totally worth it. Horiuchi's acting gave me goddamn chills when
Spoiler: click to toggle
. The drawn out pronunciation, the rasp, the way he switched in and out even during codec calls was amazing. Also worth the purchase just for the Snake sword DLC coming in April.

Oh yeah, Fox's blade is stupidly OP when you get the 100k BP upgrade for it as well, which raises the clean cut % to like 30%? Considering how fast you swing that shit, grunts just pop open like pinatas.

I just finished the game on normal this weekend. That final battle was epic, my girlfriend was at the edge of her seat until i kept getting my but kicked, some of those fights really put your reflexes to the test. I am going to play on hard mode next. Im loving this game but it really went full throttle after stage 03, its like it was boss fight after boss fight in no time flat.

Supposedly some of the fights change on Very Hard and Revengeance. Like the final bosses CQC phase. You have to either deal a massive amount of damage to him, or survive for 3+ minutes.
