    I booted this up for fun. Two hours later I’m standing shirtless in my living room doing parry motions like a schizophrenic cyborg ninja. This game changes you. Bro, this game had me slicing dudes like I’m cutting onions for emotional therapy. Every boss fight = gym playlist material. Every cutscene = pure crackhead energy. Every parry = confidence boost IRL. This is raw, unfiltered sigma energy distilled into blade mode. Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is the ultimate aura workout. So play…

    One of the cool things about revisiting a game like Metal Gear Rising is that boss fights I remember being stuck on for an entire day back when I played in 2015 I’m now getting on my first try within a few minutes without getting hit once. Really rewarding feeling

    Funny Game Journalism story: Back when I was covering events, I got to try an early build of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. The demo had the watermelons you could cut, tactically starting on that level because they wanted journos to be wowed by the slicing/physics. Unfortunately, I was there...

    Saw the trailer for this game back at E3 2012, when I was just a little girl. I could never play it because of a defect in my eyes that made PS3’s 3D effects give me terrible motion sickness. I specially trained my eyes so I could finally play it, and I finished it today. One of the best video games I’ve ever played. Absolutely the best work Platinum Games has ever done. 10/10.

    Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance✅ Didn’t expect this game to end up being one of my favorite games ever💀 The combat is INCREDIBLE. Legitimately A+ Tier up there with Ninja Gaiden— just behind Sekiro imo My ONLY complaint is too many cinematic combat scenes taking the fight out of my hands 9.5/10

    A masterpiece that has stood the test of time and hundreds of hours of gameplay. I've explored this game inside and out, unlocked 100% of the achievements (60 out of 60), spent almost 250 hours here (and I don't plan to stop), and I can say with confidence: Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is one of the best hack-and-slash games in the history of the gaming industry. Let me explain why. Pros: Combat System: It's great. The "Blade Mode" mechanic (freely cutting enemies into pieces) still feels…

    the only thing I know for real is that this game breaks the rules of nature. there's a red sun amidst the dark skies, the stains of time are destroying the collective consciousness, and I remain a stranger to this weird ass politics and war game. unfortunately, since a soul can't be cut, I'm my own master now it has to be this way. 10/10 would recommend though, the domino's thousand piece pizza cutting simulation is a pretty fun game

    This game is dumb as hell and i loved every minute of it. Revengeance is rule of cool all the way down, it holds nothing back. its a classic hack and slash that was co-written by a twelve year old hopped up on halloween candy and mid 90's action films. Do not dissapoint your inner child, buy this game.

    Still very great game on days of today, released between 2013 and problaby 2014 for the PC it's the best game style hack and slash but too very extreme hard if you dony have learned how to parry or the mechanics of game's style like it was on my case but i've tried a save online that i found on internet to change difficulty for easy with all upgrade possible, i'd recommend you play in difficulty easy until for you learn better parry yourself and should watch tutorials on youtube about it…

    TIP FOR ANYONE LOOKING TO BUY THIS- at first you might think that: "well its a metal gear game so itll be no problem if i play it on hard." i strongly discourage playing it on hard from your first playthrough nomatter how high your gamerscore is. the thing is- you still have to grasp all the mechanics such as parriying, slicing accurately, stealth, what attach to use when, etc.... and on hard you have no time to learn them all as youre just thrown into the deep end without preparation. for…

    MGR:R is genuinely the epitome of what a "traditional" video game can and should be. The political commentary, general atmosphere, characters, writing, plot, narrative, gameplay mechanics, level design, music, and the QoL features added to this PC version mean that there are very few games that could even hope to hold a candle to something like this. The codec alone likely has more dialogue (good/interesting conversations too) than a lot of other games period, and it's fully voice acted on top…
