Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance demo is up on Xbox Live and PSN US. PSN EU whenever.

S-Ranked the boss. The slide move plus the follow up bounces his ass, leaving him wide open for a combo. Mash the blade mode in close range for some cheap damage, too.

They better be able to skip codecs in the full game.

If you mean the walking section, I think, like the similar sections in Vanquish, it's used to seamlessly mask loading between stages in place of cinematic cut scenes.

As long as they dont fix that Raiden has no backwards walking animation, I'll be perfectly fine moonwalking across the room every time it happens

Wow. lol

first time I've seen this

AFAIK no multiplayer to speak of. Unless it's the world's best kept secret
 
Systems Video Explanation from the Konami youtube channel, it shows a bunch of Raiden's moves along with dodging and how to deal with missiles/grenades.

Could we post this on the top of every page or something?

The divekick canceled into stealth kill near the end is amazing

someone needs to gif this http://youtu.be/IabHyQJA9-w?t=2m54s<---Dive Kick Cancel into stealth kill into zandetsu

nothing says freedom to experiment quite like a trick move in gif form
 
This slide move is TOO good, lol. Big fight with 4 grunts and a gecko, slide into soldier for free, blade move, grab spine. Repeat on other three guys, blocking all their bullets automatically with ninja run. Parry obvious as hell Gecko attacks, mash buttons, QTE mash buttons, S-rank

Damn I forgot about that move. I kept doing this back, forward palm move because it's so cool. But I got hit by the Gekkos a lot since their windup is so deceptively long.

So it's not up on PSN yet? WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME OH LORD? It's for the best I guess... I got a economics midterm to study for D:

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
No. First we must make the twenty blood sacrifices, and only then will Grace Chen stir from her slumber.

I'm also partial to Raiden baseballing the grenade back at the grunt with a backwards dodge slash.

Anyways, I think it's a good video to show people the mechanics as all the moves shown are from the demo afaik.

Also, Japanese demo S-Rank without parries. Lots of neat tricks plus slide abuse and glitches.

Demo was damn good fun. However I'm unsure about how the defensive mechanics work in the game. Not so sure how I feel about the lack of rolling and the parry, seems kind of clunky to dodge attacks with the run. Maybe I just need more practice!

Watching this http://youtu.be/xYGIRVeVY24?t=1m7s is definitely informative though. Can't wait to show some of those moves when I play the demo again.

Just press forward and attack to parry/counter when you see an enemy red light flash on the screen (eye, weapon light, etc).

EDIT: What the, I had no idea there were hidden objects in the tutorial area.

I really enjoyed the demo. Really looking forward to the game.


Are you not able to obtain the enemy data in the demo though? There where at least two guys where I cut off their left hands and it never did anything (other than cutting off their hands).

Between this and the Ni No Kuni W.E. thread, there is a delicious lack of patience amongst GAF members!
I only don't care because I'm still at work

Nah I think it works different in the full version.(I've seen screens where left arms glow red)

All limbs to is give you 100 BP for each one. but I'm not even sure how to consistently get them to register

Are you wireless?

PS3's wireless is notoriously shitty. I get 3mb/s on my computer easy on my wireless connection but still have to leave my PS3 on over night to get anything over 2 gigs

I downloaded that patch earlier today and it took forever. I thought the demo would be up on psn but it wasn't, had to download it on xbox.

Is MGR still releasing on PC?

Nope. PC version was cut when the development switched to Platinum and their engine. They said they'd look into it once the 360/PS3 versions are out.

PS3 version it is then.

No unfortunately :(

Konami and Japanese devs hate PC....

Well I wouldnt lump JP devs in, since the best versions of Sonic Generations and Binary Domain were the PC versions. Do wish that more multiplatform releases hit the PC though.
 
Despite all my complaints, this is a very good game from what I can tell, if pretty easy, because of the reliance on the super-powerful, constantly replenishing, very lengthy blade mode. Who knows, it'll probably get more challenging. Not like Bayonetta didn't get broken as fuck with the Killgore glitch.

The lock-on is a godsend though, don't know WTF the NT dudes who made DmC were thinking taking that shit out.

Also, this thread is huge so sorry for asking a probably repeat question, but is this the same as the zoe demo or is it more?
