Isn't it heavily implied in Ground Zeroes that Rising is a non-canon, alternate future? Especially the way the game's logo doesn't erase with the IR light, unlike all the other canon games.

So a lttp on this. Was a there a trailer for this? Or just the 2 teasing at the possibility of MGR2?

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Gray Fox game is a bad idea. Rising 2 set post-Rising, still with Raiden, is best. Forever.

That picture sums up everything wrong with that scene. Remember beating the game and feeling the same way. I still can't get over how unnecessary that scene is.
I would love a PC release of this
Yes. Platinum always institutes locks on their PC versions at 1080p and 60 FPS. Their justification in doing so is completely backwards.

Rising 1 was in development hell for a while. This is very likely a 2016 game.

Better than 30FPS and 720p
Rising wasn't one of the of the logos featured in GZ I don't think.
E: No wait, you're right but don't the logos just refer to games directed and not directed by Kojima?
WTF???!! BWAHAHAHA XDALL OVER MY FACE!!!AND THE REST OF MY BODY AS WELL
This thread is full of awesome gifs!

Well Kojima said last time if they had Platinum do a sequel he'd like them to use FOX Engine, so if that happened it's likely we'll have some proper resolution options!

I never thought I'd be getting proper sequels to Bayonetta, Rising, and a DMC4 expansion, much less in a row.
The presentation is already over. We got nothing.
Indeed. I guess it fits the ridiculous self-indulgent nature of the game in a way.
In all fairness, Raiden himself actually did get decent closure, which MGR indeed destroyed.
MGR is literally their only PC game. It's just an okay port. I would hope further PC versions of theirs would offer more options.

A lot of that was because Konami had no idea what they were doing. Once Platinum took over they made it in a little over a year. Would not be surprised to see it in 2016. Especially if we actually get Phantom Pain this year.
Definitely would like to see them attempt implementing Blade Wolf as a support attack character of sorts, we haven't really seen anything like that in these "stylish action" games.

Seriously how Platinum did it in such a short time is still beyond me. Very few developers could have pulled this off.

ah crap my bad, the gifv version of it is small
Rising is canon, that's been confirmed. The whole reason it is set after MGS4 is because it was a canonical entry but Platinum wanted more freedom in the story(Rising was originally set between MGS2 and 4). Also the logo erasing mechanic in GZ delt with the entries director, not the canonical status. Every game directed by Kojima erased, while the ones not directed by him did not.

Can Not Wait.
Hope they keep the same guy for the soundtrack, that was like 50% of the game for me.
Yes easily.
Rising is the best metal gear game anyways.

Why do people really want this? Sunny is a garbage character that very few people give a fuck about, and Raiden's outlook at the end of Metal Gear Rising is exciting.
Metal Gear Rising should be batshit insane 10000%.
The design of the logo has very little to do with canon. If you remember, Rising was originally an interquel between Sons of Liberty and Guns of the Patriots. I don't think the logo infers a canon, but perhaps the style of game, as Rising is focused on straight up action.
