I bought five PC copies as gifts and one for myself. Twenty bucks? poo poo yeah son. I really would love to see the data on how well this one did on PC sales. I am imagining it did pretty well. SA isn't the only forum I saw blowing up in glee about this PC port.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is a spin-off character action game along the lines of Devil May Cry and Bayonetta, created together by Platinum Games and Kojima Productions. In my opinion, it is one of the top two games of 2013, and on January 9th it'll finally be coming to the PC! I did the thread for the console release, I did a big rear end LP for this game that you can find in the goldmine, and now I'm doing a thread for the PC release. I LOVE THIS GAAAAAME


Your LP got me to get the game on the PS3, so knowing the PC port is coming especially after just building a PC just sold me my first steam game.

I can't wait for everyone to stream this on Jan 10. Just a cacophony of difficulty rage, sorrowful cries as it melts weaker PCs and "YES! YES! SPLIT IT WIDE OPEN".

What's most important though, is that this game comes with a Boris and Doktor emotes. Anything else is fine, but please, let me just spam Doktor everywhere.

I think the i7 requirement may be tied to them adding a setting that increases the amount of physics objects you can create in Blade Mode. If you don't care that much about cranking Zanteki or whatever they're calling it to the max it might not matter too much.

Don't really know though as like nothing has come out about the port; just speculating here.

It'll be 1080 60 with everything maxed out in the options. That's obviously not including personal taste things, like AA. You can save some performance by turning your AA down from 8 to 4 if you can't tell the difference for example, and the difference between high shadows and medium might not be much or might be huge. If you can deal with how they look on medium, play with them on medium. That's the true beauty of PC gaming.

I'm willing to bet money Chip Cheezum has a file named revengeance_thread_titles.txt on his PC.

Thank goodness for Christmas money, some of that went to the Steam store as fast as my family's satellite internet in the country could handle. And I just put a GTX 650 Ti into my PC. I am so the gently caress ready for this.

Also I'm totally trying out keyboard+mouse controls for shits and giggles, just because I want to see how hilariously difficult it is. Could it really be any worse than Dark Souls, though? I mean, really. (Even though Dark Souls's keyboard controls made a weird kind of sense when you got used to them.)

The i7 is minimally faster and costs a good deal more than the i5. The i7 is basically not something to be used for gaming.

Nope - his head above the jaw and his spine are still human all through MGS4 and up until after the fight with Sam, I believe. He needs a new combat body to go after Desperado, and decides to go with a full-body replacement at the same time.

Did Konami port Castlevania: Lords of Shadow? If so, I'm thinking that the port could be great.

This was from the old thread, but I wanted to mention it anyway. I have the PC port and played the PS3 version originally and it plays great. It seems to have similar graphics options (vsync, anti-aliasing, anisotropic filtering, shadows) and runs at 60 FPS and 1080p. Here's a screenshot I just grabbed with maxed out settings.

Only the first two are remotely possible. God Hand and Viewtiful Joe are a) not made using the Bayonetta/Vanquish/Rising engine and b) owned by Capcom.

I just want to clarify something for the people who are reading this thread having never played MGS4 or MGR: this is not a joke. The high heels really are are so he can hold the sword with his feet, and then breakdance to slice enemies apart. I feel like I cannot state this clearly enough.

Not just breakdancing! He also has what is basically Chun-Li's Lightning Kick, but with a sword included. High heels will always be badass now.

The best part is that doing spinning bird kicks with swords on his feet is, like, sixth on the top five list of craziest things you can do in this game through player action, just below "cleave a 30m tall robot in half with a man-sized sword in the first level" and one of my favorites, "attack a helicopter by running along the volley of missiles it fires".

Hey, you know what game Platinum should find a way to push to PC? Anarchy Reigns. Maybe then it would actually have enough people playing it that the multiplayer would be worth a drat.

Its sadder that Sega was so broke at the time they couldn't afford to print the NA disks, which is why it was released about 6 months later. MP is pretty fun though. Deathball best ball

The multiplayer's amazing except that the only guys playing deathball either were worse than I was or had the combo system on lockdown and the reflexes of a mantis shrimp. Maybe next time they make a multiplayer game we get something with better latency and a proper matchmaking system!

Is that the official excuse they gave for their ridiculous decision to push the release date where it'd be guaranteed not to have any multiplayer presense in a multiplayer-focused game? I thought it was just another one of their ridiculous marketting decisions and attempts to screw over Platinum as much as possible.

Seems like everyone is always out to screw over Platinum. Be it from back when they were Clover or when Nintendo decided to not market Wonderful 101 at all. Also gently caress Sega anyway I'm still mad at them for deciding to localize Yakuza Dead Souls and not Ishin. Or 5. No of course not let's not get good games let's get the lovely zombie game.

In other words, Platinum is the Japanese parallel to Obsidian.

I was so goddamned hyped for this game and it didn't disappoint, even though I'm terrible at it and probably got like a flat B rank across the entire campaign. Now I get to be excited all over again!

Platinum is like the exact opposite to Obsidian. They make technically excellent games with fun gameplay and stupid stories.
