So who is picking this up next month? The demo was just released a couple of days ago and was wondering what everybody's impressions of it were? I thought it was pretty solid, but the camera got pretty irritating at times.


Kojima is involved. They were working on this themselves when things weren't going too well, so they brought in Platinum.Blu wrote:I didn't realize Platinum Games was behind this one, which was interesting.

I'll pick it up though. Raiden redeemed himself in MGS4. Better than the melodrama I saw in MGS2.
I honestly think he just kind of gave them the "nod" and that's it, kind of like Lords of Shadow. Though he probably had a little more input here, but Kojima's clearly been busy with other projects like the Fox Engine, Ground Zeroes, etc. Supposedly he wanted Gray Fox to be the main in this (which would have been odd how that would tie in somewhere), but yeah he gave Platinum the reigns to do whatever for the most part. I think bruno told me Platinum even revamped the engine for this and rebuilt most of the game once they took over.AppleQueso wrote:Kojima is involved.

Kamiya and Kojima are a good pairing.
There's a demo on PSN and I think XBLA right now.Blu wrote:Is there a demo out now? Or was this mainly at booths at Expos?
And those who bought the LE of the Zone of the Enders HD Collection got it months ago on-disc. *smug smile*AppleQueso wrote:There's a demo on PSN and I think XBLA right now.Blu wrote:Is there a demo out now? Or was this mainly at booths at Expos?
