Oh, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, I think I’m going to love you very much.  Or hate your guts.  A lot. The reason for my duplicity is simple; Konami and developer Platnium Games have just released a trailer for the game which pays special attention to some of the boss encounters you’ll have.  Now, I relish a challenge (usually) but these guys just look like they’re going to punish anybody who doesn’t [...]

Metal Gear Solid artist Yoji Shinkwawa has said that fans should expect a ‘special surprise’ to coincide with the 25th anniversary of the IP. Indeed, it was Shinkawa-san’s sketchy, brushstroke artistic stylings that have been synonymous with the Metal Gear Solid franchise. As far as the surprise goes, I don’t imagine it will be a new game or an HD update of the original or anything like that; but I will [...]

Jealous of your friends who got a Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance demo with their purchase of Zone of the Enders HD Collection? Well, soon you’ll be able to stow that jealousy as Konami and developer Platinum Games have confirmed that a demo for the hyper-kinetic hack and slasher will arrive on the Xbox Live Marketplace and the Playstation Network on January 22nd. To celebrate the news, the powers that be [...]

The undoubted highlight out of all of the trailers that were shown at the 2012 Spike Video Games Awards, was this mysterious little number. Titled ‘The Phantom Pain‘, the game is made by just-popped-up Moby Dick Studios and appears to show the main character with a hook arm, struggling to move his atrophied body out of medical facility which is under attack by various suited heavies. With lots of crawling around, a [...]

Two new, and really quite insane, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance videos have been released today by publisher Konami. Showing off a hugely frenetic sewer battle and a frankly balls-to-wall scrap with Metal Gear Ray, I’m just struggling to think what else developer Platinum Games can do to convince the fence-sitters and disbelievers out there of just how excellent this game will be. Not convinced yourself? Take a wander over the jump. [...]

At the Tokyo Game Show, Konami decided to unleash a brand new trailer for the Platinum Games developed Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance on the public. It contains all sorts of gory, sword-slashing craziness as you might well imagine. Fancy taking a look at it? Of course you do; find it after the jump.

The internet is a very big place with lots of misleading information, but every once in a while, something slips up and a trickle of truth comes to the attention of the public. That said, this nugget of information may not be true at all and could just be Photoshopped bull, but with the vast assortment of characters already included in PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale, these “character reveals” could very [...]

Today at PAX Hideo Kojima debuted eleven minutes of gameplay footage of the new Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes, which will be a prologue of sorts to Metal Gear Solid 5. Check it out after the jump.

Perhaps the tastiest tidbit to come out of the Metal Gear Solid 25th anniversary for fans, was the unveiling of a brand new Metal Gear Solid title. Titled, Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes and showcasing the new FOX graphics engine, the game returns players to the shoes of Big Boss; the primary protagonist of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater.

Konami have at last confirmed that a live-action movie for their stealthy, box-sneaking opus, Metal Gear Solid, will be made (possibly) into reality with movie studio Colombia Pictures in charge of property. Avi Arad, he of the Marvel movies fame, has also signed on to the dotted line as producer.
