So incredibly jealous of all the people who have got their copies early! I NEED REVENGEANCE

 

[demidar]

No, but I wouldn't know if there's a reward at the end of the tunnel. Titles can be tracked in the collectables screen, along with severed left hand ID data (think dogtags), and other stuff. I know there's achievements for completing certain categories of collectables, but I don't know if titles are under that umbrella.

I loved collecting dog tags in MGS2, this game keeps getting better and better.

 

[thesolidshark]

I actually thought that the last boss fight was fun. It was as insane as the final boss fight of MGS 2

Versus

Solidus

? Either way, now I can see how people say it gets better as you go.

 

[DJwest]

So are you guys getting the game on 360 or PS3 ? Anyone tried the demo on both consoles and preferred the 360 controller ?

 

[ZTS]

.

Oh wait those were MGS2 spoilers. LOl never mind.

 

[Ragus]

And now I must wait until the 19th.

Did you rike it?

 

[EatChildren]

Did you rike it?

No. Worse than Superman 64. 2/10. Needed more guns.

I see. Preorder cancelled.

 

[anddo0]

Thank's Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance.

Ouch!

I'm using backup controller for this one.

 

[-tetsuo-]

Ive died about 100 times in the final chapter

 

[perineumlick]

Just started the PS3 version last night. Had a good time with it. Plays nice and smooth; maybe smoother than the demo. Some of these bosses are insane.

 

[rvy]

I'm surprised there's still no final boss footage on YT. I'm curious now.

 

[Muchi Muchi Pink]

No. Worse than Superman 64. 2/10. Needed more guns.

How bad is it exactly? Choose between Superman 64, Rise of Robots or Terminator 2 for the master system

 

[Naar]

I beat the game yesterday and trophies were popping up after I do something to make them pop (like chapter finish)

But the game doesn't show on my trophy list :\ and every time I go into trophy menu it says it's syncing and reaches 100% and then all games show up expect MGR!

Anyone know what the problem is?

Also I can vouch for that last boss taking 70% of the continues. I was in a similar situation until I figured out how to beat him and what to do and not do

From last page. Anyone can help?

 

[The Xtortionist]

3 hours long, no guns, not enough cutscenes, 3.4/10

I'm surprised there's still no final boss footage on YT. I'm curious now.

I've seen it and recommend not spoiling it for yourself. At least not the cutscene before. It's pretty bonkers.

HMMMMMMMMMM. Worse than Superman 64 and Terminator 2, but not quite as good as Rise of the Robots.

Can I just use this as my review?

Yes but you have to beat cyborg snake you see solid snake was not really the clone son of big boss he just idolised him and all the events of the solid series was snake collecting VR/AI data on raidens abilities and ninja powers so he could construct an exo skeleton in his old age enhanced with the spirit and will and data of raiden and become the ultimate warrior like big boss thats the final boss fight cyborg solid snake its real cool

This one can be called a mixture of both

 

[-tetsuo-]

This fight sucks

 

[rvy]

LMAO @ the dog going "Are you fucking serious, you blonde dipshit?". Amazing cutscenes.

 

[DarkLordMalik]

Are people serious about hating this game?

I mean it was pretty good, not at the level of Bayonetta but still pretty damn good. Why all the hate? :|

 

[demidar]

Reading about the last boss kicking everyone's ass leaves me tingling with anticipation.

 

[FlutterPuffs]

I'm not surprised if the story sucks in this one.

I mean, MGS' story lunacy + Platinum Games visual lunacy = a big floppy donkey mess.

Do I think that I will still like it though? Yes.

Sigh.

 

[Gbraga]

Spoiler

Well, they have the whole system made, including dodges and melee combos for the final boss fight, it's a waste not to have it as an unlockable IMO

(Final boss spoilers)

 

[-tetsuo-]

I wonder how this fight is on Normal because it is extremely bad on Hard.

 

[rvy]

YOU ARE NOT HELPING MY HYPE AND CURIOSITY.

 

[Corky]

So this is good? Is it bayonetta good or vanquish good?

 

[rvy]

I'm not sure there's a difference.

 

[BeeDog]

From last page. Anyone can help?

Since the game isn't officially released, the trophies probably aren't listed on the Sony servers. When the game gets its official release, you'll be able to sync them, don't worry.

 

[The perfect Dark]

Literally like...70% of those continues was the final boss. Which in turn became less troublesome when I stopped playing like a moron and learned how to best tackle the fight better.

And now I must wait until the 19th.

Wait...6:18 hours on hard?
So without the last difficult boss fight it's 5 1/2 hours?

Reminds me of Vanquish.
Nope, not worth 60€ imo. I'll wait until price drop

It's an action brawler. It does not count cutscenes and codec conversations, nor does it count retries and replays in your final time. It only counts your best time, so every continue is made irrelevant in the game time (to my knowledge), only the one where I won counts.

If you're only going to play it once, no it won't take long to beat. You also wont unlock half the shit in the game, and have VR challenges on top of that.

 

[Corky]

I'm not sure there's a difference.

Vanquish is like a piece of hot, crumble blueberry pie on a cool summer evening with creamy custard that tickles your tastebuds in ways you wouldn't even dream of, all of it served to you by your beautiful wife/husband who simultaneously whispers promises of acts that would make the author of the Kama Sutra blush.

Bayonetta is an order of magnitude better than that.

Yea but I have bought many games days before the official release and had no problems with the trophies synching.

I guess I will wait and see what happens in 2 days

Yea true. I played the game about 12 hours straight until I beat it but my end time was slightly less than 6 hours. So half my playing time wasn't recorded

It doesnt count any of those retries or any cutscenes -- Its a special calculator for speed runners only. Good god people. Do we have to tattoo this to every fucking page. Or put a kibosh on posting that end screen unless you label it "ACTUALLY PLAYED FOR 12 HOURS THO" on the image.

 

[iSnakeTk]

So is the Zandatsu actually improved in the final game ? In the demo it was terrible trying to cut precisely. There was a point where I became really frustated and just said fuck it , spam xxxyyy in zandatsu mode.

 

[DarkLordMalik]

Took me close to 10 hours on Normal but the in-game timer was reading it at 5:15. Not to mention i skipped almost every codec conversation and rushed through most of the game. I wanted to give the Hard difficulty a try so i will start properly on Hard. Thankfully, didn't start with Hard otherwise the Final Boss Fight might have broken my controller.

It got delayed a week in Australia. Fuuuuuuu

It did??? FFS!! Damn this country!! Now I think I definitely will import it. Cheaper and I might get it faster.

This is fappable material.

Aren't you the Monsters Arcade guy? Nice Sundowner fight. I haven't seen anyone else

That's why you don't start on Hard

 

[winstano]

I beat the game yesterday and trophies were popping up after I do something to make them pop (like chapter finish)

But the game doesn't show on my trophy list :\ and every time I go into trophy menu it says it's syncing and reaches 100% and then all games show up expect MGR!

Anyone know what the problem is?

Also I can vouch for that last boss taking 70% of the continues. I was in a similar situation until I figured out how to beat him and what to do and not do

Same thing's happening here. I think it's probably just because the game's not out for a week still, they'll pop up on release day I guess. If you want to see them in your list, set your trophy mode to Offline and they'll show up then

I really started off sloppy in that fight. I had paused for like 5 hours and already had lost my rhythm. On top of that, I was in the middle of a crazy ass encounter in a Pathfinder game lol

 

[jett]

Normal mode is pretty easy. If you're used to the demo you should probably start on hard. I've literally died more times in a shitty set-piece in the prologue than in the next 3-4 chapters.

 

[demidar]

That's what I did, fastest delivery too and it comes to about $85 which is about the same retail except 3-5 days earlier.

Game isn't out yet. DmC did the same thing when I was reviewing it on PS3. Once release date hits the trophies will appear on your list.
