Metal Gear Solid: Rising

Konami have reviled that you don’t have to kill anyone in Metal Gear Solid: Rising. Might sound dull to some gamers but it continues an awesome tradition in the MGS series.

You play as Raiden, a cyborg Ninja who’s preferred weapon is a razor sharp Katana. Departing from the usual style of play, this Metal Gear is all about hunting down your enemies and slicing stuff up. He's not like Snake, he won't hide away until the heat dies down, he'll just cut everything up!



I was worried about the series losing the stealth elements that made it so special. I don't think Konami are dumbing down the stealth tactics but changing them to appeal to a wider audience. Even though there are changes, I think it's really promising that Konami are still playing to their quirky strengths.

Metal Gear Solid: Rising will be released across all platforms in 2011.
