Why Revengeance Rocks...

User Rating: 8.5 | Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance PS3
So many comments and bad energy was flashed towards the development of this game that some would say it was bound to fail, but... Here it is, and it Rocks!
There is a saying that goes something like this: "A man can die trying to please everyone". And it is so true.
Using the name and characters of such a beloved and respected series as MGS could never be considered an easy task. Also it could not come without risk.
The game that was a Metal Gear, but wasn't meant to be exactly a Metal Gear became something on it's own.
Good Graphics, excellent combat system with almost seamless combo execution, rocking soundtrack and all that Metal Gear charm to back it up.
A fast paced, action packed Hack and Slash game with the most beautifully styled sword moves out there. Also, it brings with it a bit of that Samurai/Ninja way feel to the table. The manner in which you chose to slay your foes and how efficiently you do so become a question of honor, your very own trademark killing style. Trying to score S rank in the many combat sections of the game becomes a mission of perfection in the path of mastery of your sword.
I think that that game should pack a bit more play hours for a game that took so much time to be launched, but still, a fun game that deserves it's place alongside the MGS series.
