My penis.

Well, that's a good start.


Crashpunk 07-13-2012 11:29 AM

Well this is interesting.


moxco 07-14-2012 09:04 AM

Finally.
Possibly the most uninformative trailer though.


Dynamithix 07-14-2012 02:38 PM

Suck it, Wolverine.


MeechMunchie 07-14-2012 03:11 PM

This video is private.

Wings of Fire 07-14-2012 03:24 PM

Suck it, MeechMunchie.

Dynamithix 07-14-2012 03:45 PM

It's fixed now.

Phylum 07-14-2012 03:57 PM

Suck it, WoF.

MeechMunchie 07-15-2012 03:53 AM

You can just tell that's going to be another Duke Nukem Forever.

You know, toeing the wrong side of the line of good taste.

Metal Gear Rising Revengance:



I don't see why people are hating so hard on this game. It looks a hell of a lot of fun and (not knowing what Anarchy Reigns is like) Platinum Games hasn't made a bad game. Ever. Even Mad World was fun.

Varrok 07-15-2012 04:36 AM

I think I won't like it after the redesign. I seriously miss not-killing everyone

Mr. Bungle 07-15-2012 11:12 AM

That Deadpool game looks ball to the wall awesome. I can't wait.

It is not like it has gone all Splinter Cell Conviction. They are completely different games in different genres by different companies. Different.

Varrok 07-15-2012 12:12 PM

Let's hope it hasn't, but my realism tells me to be a pessimist.

Laser 07-15-2012 12:17 PM

You need to play more Platinum games then. Then you will understand my optimism! :D

Varrok 07-15-2012 12:23 PM

I played more MGS games D:

Daxter King 07-15-2012 01:11 PM

There was no game in the old version of MGS Rising. It was nothing more than a tech demo for cutting things.

Laser 07-15-2012 01:22 PM

True. But that was before Platinum Games took over, I think.

MeechMunchie 07-16-2012 03:48 AM

I refuse to play any game with "Revengeance" in the title.

Dynamithix 07-16-2012 05:45 AM

I think I'm going to buy this when it comes out, I haven't played kart games in a long time and this is looking nice. I hope that song is just there for the trailer and not in the game itself, it's horrible.



High Moon is making a game of Hit-Monkey. It's a comic book.

I wonder how could anyone there in Konami/Platinium think that's a good title - -'

Mr. Bungle 07-16-2012 08:46 AM

Revengeance is a stupid as hell title for a stupid as hell franchise.

Nah, but it's still dumb. Game looks fun though.

I'm going to guesstimate you don't like stupid made up words.

What?! How could you NOT? It is such an amazingly stupid title

MeechMunchie 07-16-2012 09:26 AM

Thankfully I've only had to apply that rule once. Hopefully never again.

I'm going to guesstimate you don't like stupid made up words.

I don't mind portmanteaus, they can be useful, but my inner etymologist gets angry when both words mean the same thing - like "chillax" or "guesstimate" - since it doesn't actually convey any additional meaning.

Even worse is when both words actually have the same root. Every other day I hear someone cracking up over a pun and think "That's not nearly as clever as you think it is. They used to be the same word anyway, they just got corrupted and drifted apart; Now you're looking at twins and finding it hilarious that they look the same". I harbour a lot of quiet despisal for my fellow man.

But "Revengeance" is as stupid as it gets. "Vengeance" and "revenge" are practically the same concept even to a layman; When you consider that the root word is "Venge", basically "spite", you can see that "A-venge" is to end spite, "Venge-ful" is to be spiteful, "Re-venge" is to continue spite, and "Venge-ance" is just an act of spite.

As you can see, "Revengeance" is such an utterly imbecilic title that I've been forced to sound fairly clever just to communicate quite how stupid it is.

tl;dr They should have just called it MGS: Spitey spite spite-spite

Irregardless, it’s still a stupid word.

MeechMunchie 07-16-2012 09:47 AM

That's a whole 'nother word though.

*eye twitch*

MeechMunchie 07-17-2012 05:23 AM

I'm like that with "could care less".
