The story was just ok, the combat nice and fast paced and semi responsive. The annoyances i had in this game lowered this game to the 6.5 i gave it. The camera moved around during fighting lose track of some enemies, any enemy bigger than you will not stun from your attacks even hard one, almost all attacks are locked onto you and only way to not get hurt is to dodge/parry which didnt work sometimes cause they made that button an attack button, during boss fight bosses seem unable to be hit, inputting the required key or keys to get out of grapples didnt always work. and only about a 6-7 hour game. So not worth buying might be worth a rent but thats about it. The only innovative thing this game added was the ability to slice almost anything at any angle was fun for a while. In my opinion the Metal Gear franchise should have taken a hint from how badly Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII was and stayed out of the action genre, stick to what your good at and keep doing that well.
