Metal Gear Rising- Revengence is an action video game developed by Platinum Games and produced by Kojima Productions
Wow Metal Gear Rising- Revengeance was one of my most anticiated games of this year, but now it's finally here all I can say is how disappointed I am. I was a massive fan of the MGS series I thought it was amazing playing MGS on the PS1 nothing out there was better then it but some how I believe it has lost its way because it looks like an MGS game and with the new fox engine it looks amazing but its just not MGS.The gameplay just didn't do it for me as I found myself dying lots of times and that for me is frustrating, hard and just not enjoyable to play. I've played (Platinum games) before i.e Bayonetta,Vanquish and ive really enjoyed them but this one its just not for me.
The gameplay focuses on fighting enemies using a sword and multiple sub weapons to perform combos and counterattacks. The game introduces the Blade Mode feature which allows the player to dismember cyborgs in slow motion and steal parts stored in their bodies. The series' stealth elements are also optional to reduce combat. The game was originally announced in 2009 under the title of Metal Gear Solid: Rising, and was intended to act as an interquel between the events of Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty and Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. This form of the game was to be produced solely by Kojima Productions. However, the team met with difficulties in developing a game based on swordplay, so the franchise director Hideo Kojima cancelled it and it should have stopped that way, gameplay for me was just to hard,bosses was unbeatable I would give them loads of hits and nothing would happen but one combo from them and I was dead. Even on the easy setting it was hard in the end I just give up. I was really excited about this game and got even more so when the reviews from the big guns come out with Ign giving it 8.5, Gamespot 8.5 I thought we might be on too a winner and It wasn't for me, but if you love the devil may cry's and ninja gaiden games then I would give a try and see what you think but for me it's a epic fail and a massive disappointment .

voice of the rebooted Lara Croft
Let me start straight away with that I think, this is one of the best story driven, well written, very well presented game I have played so far this year, not once did i want to put down my pad, not once did i feel I had lost my connection with any of the character.
I really enjoyed this games even though at one point I wasn't even going to play the game again as I was 36% into the game and I jump into somewhere I don't think I was meant to go and I couldn't get out or start at the last checkpoint as it kept starting me in the area I couldn't get out off, so basically I had to start again from the start, which of course I wasn't too happy about!
The game begins with Lara travelling on the ship called Endurance commanded by Conrad Roth, an old friend of the Croft family and former Royal Marine. Also there Reyes Roths lover, as well as several specialists are on board. Alex, a computer specialist, Johah a fisherman, Samantha, Laras old collage friend and also Dr.Whitman who is a celebrity archaeologist who is desperate to make a big find and escape bankruptcy.
The group are searching for the lost Japanese nation of the yamatai against Dr.Whitmans protests,
the ship follows Lara's advice anyway and enters the Dragon's Triangle, an area renowned for
causing ships to disappear. when the ship got struck by a violent storm and splits in two, Lara awakens on a beach but is knocked unconscious by an unknown assailant. This is when we start the nail biting edge of your seat roller coaster ride never in my life have I played a character that gets so beaten, banged up, impaled or shot at, the ordeal she has to go through would make anyone loose their mind but not Lara she battles on bruised and bleeding and still she kicks ass to escape the island.
As you can properly tell I fell in love with this game, at first I thought it was just going to be an uncharted clone but I was wrong, it might have used the uncharted template but with a story to match any AAA Hollywood movie with the action that is fast, brutal and combat that is tight.
Overall this game is a must buy .
