We have a new Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance trailer

EatChildren

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Is this the sacrifice Platinum has to make for solid 60fps on current consoles?

Yes, but it's also on a tight development schedule, as Platinum had to bail KojiPro out of their colossal failure, and that too is likely contributing to the presentation shortcomings.

Is the theme of the game going to be Raiden's disrespect for androids and misunderstanding of android/synthetic/AI right of life is contrast by his own inhumanity and blood lust and not-so-slow transformation into more robot than man and in the end he will come to learn that violence comes from man because man created robots and it is man who was the villain all along and this revelation came from within his own transformations also nanomachines?

I feel like you've probably spoiled the entire plot.
 
Raiden sure is a crazy motherfucker.

What happened to the guy who would have phone calls with his girlfriend and was happy that he managed to avoid drowning?

I don't see any presentation shortcomings. All I see is Platinum being Platinum.

Loved it. Loved it. Loooooooooooooooved it. That cutscene and voice-over were HILARIOUS, and the gameplay looks awesome as always.

I hope the Japanese version of the LE will come with the English track too, because I would hate to miss out on it.

Ah ok, I didn't know the history of this game.

We were talking strictly graphics, lighting effects, shaders, etc... which is flat out average (I would say bad) in this trailer.

If you're talking about gameplay or animations or combat, those are completely separate issues.

The action looks great as ever, but I'm worried the setting is going to be really dull (either because of the MGS fiction or because Platinum didn't have a ton of time). The area in the demo is decent looking, but the environment in this trailer doesn't have much going for it. I know that's not where your attention will be during the intense moments, but a game like this still needs interesting/memorable locations to compete with the best of the genre.

Wait, that's Raiden talking at the beginning?

What the fuck.

And people say Samus's characterization was bad in Other M.

And on the sixth day the LORD David Bowie created man and woman in His image. And he saw that it was good. On the seventh day the LORD created videogames so that He might take the bloody day off for once.
Goddamn Jack, you scary! FUCK DA POLICE, I guess.

Gameplay is top notch!
Cutscenes and dialogue...? Fucking LOL
Can't help but fully embrace it though, cheese and all.

Holy shit Raiden's voice in the opening monologue is like pure Kojima spite for all the people who used to say he sounded like a whiny bitch. I didn't play MGS4 so maybe it was like this for that game too, but jesus christ, I don't think I've ever heard something so hilariously and unintentionally awful in the realm of videogame voice acting.

How can you tell at 240p? Besides, this is running at 60 FPS on 8-year-old hardware. Give 'em a break.

I think, judging by the end that Raiden/Jack The Ripper has clearly gone a little bit bi-polar/schizophrenic and that the voice over has been taken a bit out of context but I for one am loving mad bastard Quinton Flynn. Turning out better than I could have ever expected.

Yeah sounds like it's straight from a bad 80s film dub

The voice for Raiden is so, so, so fucking terrible.

Also as someone who has finished MGS4, I still have no idea how exactly this game is happening story-wise.

ROFL at the opening being in Denver.
I saw the Colefax Ave. sign and I was like... wait, what?

So many games taking place in Colorado, recently.

Hnnnrggh, goddammit, I played the demo of this for about half an hour at a friends' house at New Year and preordered it the moment I could, but I need more! Where's that public demo?! 30 minutes WAS NOT ENOUGH

Not watching the trailer though, I'm happy with what I've seen so far.
