PlatinumGames / Clover Studio

After playing through the MGR demo twice, I can safely say that this would've easily been my personal choice for GotY if it had been released this year. 

Music sounds really killer too.

Wait, where the hell is this demo?

On the Zone of the Enders HD Collection.

Too bad I hate ZotE.

Too bad I hate ZotE.

The ports are pretty bad, too.

They released a patch that I believe fixes the framerate issues. Unless there are other porting issues I wouldn't be aware of.

Unsurprisingly, gaming journalists don't seem to "get" Anarchy Reigns at all. It looks like most of them just played through the short and boring single-player campaign, got butt-blasted a couple times in multiplayer, and gave up.

Ah, yes, Platinum Games. If only they had the rights to do DMC we wouldn't be getting what we're getting now.

Unfortunately, I only own Okami and Bayonetta (I really need to start playing this). I had Vanquish at one point, but that never clicked with me. I may get it again for the 360 this time though, just to see if I think any different.

Can't say that Anarchy Reign's have sparked an interest. To hear that the campaign's not that good really disappoints me since I'm not a fan of multiplayer.

The only game I'm looking forward to is Metal Gear Rising.

Well, you can still do single-player Simulator mode, which is almost as fun as actual online multiplayer. But yeah, the campaign is probably P*'s least awesome production to date aside from Red Hot Rumble's single-player campaign which was just as tacked on and even less interesting. Still decent, but not really that good.

The multiplayer aspect (including Sim), on the other hand, is one of their finest works. Personally, I think they should have just left the campaign out entirely in favor of more multiplayer content and split-screen play.

Local multi and the ability to save replays would've mad this game perfect.

Seriously, this game has so many "you had to be there" moments. I wanna show the world the time a Douglas tried to steal my kill only for me to back up and use the killer weapon on both him and a Jack.

Yeah, definitely a day 1 purchase for me, but then again I also support the MG franchise.

For those who want to try it out, the demo of Metal Gear Rising will be going up on PSN later today.

This what I'm talking about. This is what I'm always talking about.

UNGH, YES~

Platinum and Kamiya never disappoint.

[Spark Of Spirit]

Please do, sir.
