I've been told that Rising neither spoils MGS4 or requires prior knowledge of the series to enjoy.
I haven't played MGS4 either, I sat this entire console generation out until I picked up a PS3 this last Black Friday.

So ready for this. Getting some wine for this.
You don't have to if you don't want to but playing MGS4 would help you know more about Raiden, his family, the setting Rising and about some of the other characters (like Sunny).
I wouldn't get your hopes up for seeing any mods for this title.

This is nothing like the rest of the series, though.

Why is that?
Gameplay wise but the story and character connection is still there.
If I'm not mistaken there isn't actually an in-game model for Sunny. She only appears in pre-rendered cut scenes.

I'm really interested in mods for MGR. Sure there won't be any total conversions but there's bound to be some neat stuff.

PC has a boss rush mode? I'd really like to see them add something like that to the console versions, it's the one thing it desperately needs.

I've said it in the release date thread and I'll say it here again, I'm really happy about the anticipation that this port gets. I hope it does as well as the hype suggests.
That's great, thank you!

This is a fantastic OT. Also, fantastic game.
Question, partly because I was going to make a sarcastic comment and I realized there was a real question built-in to it: When it says the game runs at 60 fps, does that mean that if you run the minimum system requirements, it can hit that with appropriate detail settings? I often bristle when people assert that a title runs at 60 fps, when that sometimes means that given upper-end hardware, it's possible for it to run at that rate, but wouldn't on many otherwise capable systems.

Has anyone received their Steam key from GMG yet?
That was for the console version, we just don't know about performance yet.
Going over the minimal requirements, they look to be total bullshit. Many AAA publishers have been doing that recently.
Of course, that is just speculation, no way to know until actual release.

So is this region locked?
Yes.

25 hours and 18 minutes
The game itself is region-free, but:
- If you're in one of the Asian countries listed here, you'll need to use a VPN to activate a retail key (Spotflux is free and US-based)
- Steam users in South America and Eastern European are unable to gift the game directly or trade it to users outside of these respective territories; while it is possible to circumvent this by having the gift e-mailed to you, at which point you can add it your inventory and then activate it using VPN, I wouldn't recommend this as it technically falls under the umbrella of using a VPN to skirt region-specific pricing, which Valve doesn't take kindly to (redeeming keys is fine as Valve doesn't see a cent from those)
If you want the game on the cheap, buy a key from Nuuvem (~$17; you can ignore the warning about it being region-locked to the Americas).
