What Gamespot Users have to say about Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance

  • Rating:9

    The kind of rip-roaring good time that even a non-fan of "Metal Gear" can enjoy.

    After finally getting through my adventures in the world of "The Legend of Zelda," I wanted to take a breather before my next marathon and play some PlatinumGames titles that I never got around to. After all, between the... Read Full Review

    Metal Gear Revengeance

    Unlike the slow, stealth-focused main-line games that mainly feature Solid Snake, Metal Gear Rising focusses on fast-paced gameplay with cyborg-ninja Raiden, although there is scope for stealth in some sections.Taking pl... Read Full Review

    A change from Stealth to Hack 'n' Slash is quite risky.

    Metal Gear Rising has caused a great revolt of the fans, Raiden has never been a character so loved by the public, many people do not like Metal Gear Solid 2 because of him, in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots he... Read Full Review

    This "Metal Gear Solid" spin-off is fast, bloody fun.

    Platinum Games' "Metal Gear Solid: Revengeance" is a hack n' slash game similar to their own "Bayonetta". Fast, violent and over-the-top, it takes place four years after MGS IV and features Raiden as the title character.... Read Full Review

    Beautiful visuals and gameplay. Voice acting in English sucks though :(

    Just started playing this title so don't start flaming yet. The english voice acting by Raiden sounds like he's trying too hard to be like David Hayter or Christian Bale's Batman. There is no way to change the audio from... Read Full Review

    Interesting take on hack and slash

    MGR Revengeance is a decent game. I do have mixed feelings about it, but that's mostly because it botched some of the details. As a whole package, the game is fun, fast, and somewhat inspiring.Let's get some of the obvio... Read Full Review

    Nanomachines, son

    In 2009, MGS4 was one year old, and some of those who played it often wondered what it would be like to play as Raiden, the cyborg ninja that helped Snake with his over the top killing moves. So it was no surprise that, ... Read Full Review

    The Good: Fantastic combat and gameplay, the slicing engine is fun, graphics are amazing, great soundtrackThe Bad: Extremely short, generic tone throughout, confusing story, enemies repeat often, nothing to do outside o... Read Full Review
