There was footage of the PSP game in the Sony conference. I don't think there was anything shown of Rising though.

MGS: PO is almost unplayable without a second analogue stick, so I'm finding it hard to be excited about a new PSP game, even though the trailer did look very good. I'd rather if they'd dumped the third person camera though and went back to an overhead view like the PS1 game, that would suit the PSP controls more.

The Raiden game is too early to tell. I'm expecting it to be a spin off with a different gameplay style - probably hack n slash given the current Raiden character.

Hmm MGSR = Castlevania except set in in 2020 or whenever the F it is.

MGSPW heh... 4 big boss's? I'm still trying to figure that one out...

Konami unveils multi-format Metal Gear Solid!

Hideo Kojima's classic series returns in the form of Metal Gear Solid: Rising for Xbox®360, PLAYSTATION®3 and PC-DVD

4th June, 2009

Konami Digital Entertainment GmbH has announced Kojima Productions is working on a new Metal Gear Solid title, which will mark the series’ first simultaneous multi-format release. Entitled Metal Gear Solid: Rising, the game will be available for Xbox®360, PLAYSTATION®3 and PC-DVD.

The first Metal Gear Solid game in the series’ history to be released simultaneously on three platforms, Metal Gear Solid: Rising stars Raiden – one of the most popular characters within the MGS universe. Raiden made his debut as a playable character in Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty for PlayStation®2, and appeared as a non-playable cyborg in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots for PLAYSTATION®3.

“The Metal Gear Solid series has always pushed the bar with its cinematic visuals and entertaining story line,” commented Martin Schneider, European Marketing Director for Konami Digital Entertainment GmbH. “Now even more gamers can immerse themselves in the franchise and experience the groundbreaking series as Metal Gear Solid: Rising heads to the platform of their choice.”

How dare they have the gall to gall to call Raiden "one of the most popular characters within the MGS universe". He's the most hated if anything.

Oh cool
I doubt there will be any stealth really, which is kinda what I love about MGS
But I will get the game, if for the storyline alone

In MGS4, Raiden definitively made up for his Charlies Angels Reject vibe.

Wasn't there stealth in MGS2

Not when the tagline for this game is 'Lightning Bolt Action' instead of 'Tactical Espionage Action' as it has been with all the previous games.

Also, I am trying to find a link to a transcript of the PSP game reveal that Kojima did. Apparently he says something like 'And don't worry, this is not some crappy spin-off game'! :pac:

Lightning bolt in Japanese = Raiden

Therfore
MGS: Rising [Raiden Action]
