MG Rising was fun for the first few levels, and got boring really fast. Where's the stealth? Kojima should've stuck with Frank "Gray Fox" Jaeger. Keep it a tight stealth ninja slaughterfest. How sweet would it have been if you got the badass cyborg cloaking device and could actually sneak up and shred enemies?
I ended up sticking with the Fox blade and suit once they were available in the game. The Fox blade, once upgraded, pretty much cut through anything, and made playing a lot more enjoyable. That is the most redeeming quality of the game. Running around cutting things into hundreds of tiny pieces.
Then after seeing the first DLC/Add-on was given to Jetstream Sam, I had slightly renewed hopes. He was, in my opinion, one of the best characters in the game. Sam was genuinely likeable, with a story that was pretty decent. After checking out a friends copy... meh. Still disinterested.
Now they are releasing DLC with Blade Wolf in the lead in May for $9.99. He's the second character I actually enjoyed. Once again it looks to be a bunch of recycled in game materials in a slew of highly repetitive levels. It may have the advantage of his playstyle- he doesn't use a sword. He has the tail and a bunch of other attachments.
Can't say how the story will play out, but one may assume it'll be flashbacks to before the encounter with Raiden, filling in a story he's telling now. That's at least how the screenshots appear so far.
Well, I will at least give it a try.
