Just because it isn't set between 2 and 4 doesn't mean they can't explain things that happened between 2 and 4...

Fan service, mostly. PG, even Kojipro, can't deny people want to know what happened to Raiden.

Actually, they did say it is canon in an interview a while ago. Though I'm not sure if Kojima would pick up on it if he were to made a game that is in some way tied to Rising (as in, taking place around the same time).

I thought they said it wasn't cannon? :/


but yeah i get the fan service, I just thought it would be cool if PG had total free reign to do anything they liked without feeling the need to be bogged down with context and story when they really excell at gameplay

I don't think they ever said it wasn't canon, but I always assumed it since:
- It isn't made by Kojima in any way
- They removed the word 'Solid' (which doesn't mean it isn't canon, but still)
- They said it's not 'part of the Metal Gear Solid series'

The fact that the game is canon isn't said by Kojima by the way, but (I think) Korekado.

I'm not really bothered either way, the MGS story isn't really something that botheres me all that much, I just care about gameplay though I think i'd rather have Raiden's history presented in a game format as it could offer some cool mechanics, and sounds more interesting to me than a WW2 style MGS title

If Kojima made a The Boss game, I'm sure it would be something special.

Regardless, I'm gonna play the fuck out of this game. And the demo will be destroyed once I get the ZOE HDC.

Yeah, this game will probably be a lot of fun to replay.

But PG games have no replay value. AHLOL.

Srsly though. I'm pumped to see what skins they will have, and if the one ''surprise'' skin is indeed Gray Fox. I wouldn't mind a Null skin, though. That would be interesting.

Yeah that would be cool, but I doubt Null is popular enough. But they should just have a lot of unlockables, that's always fun.

Eh, tbh, to me Null is Frank is Gray Fox, etc. None of his incarnations hold more popularity over the other to me. As a character as a whole, he's awesome. Though, I see where you're coming from.

Yeah, good point, but PO is pretty hated in the Metal Gear community I believe. Not that it matters to me anyway. ;)

I'm 100% sure I've read that they have said that Rising isn't canon

I have no links to provide but I'm certain that I read it, it was around the time the game was re-revealed as revengeance

PW controls are equally bad

I've said it before and I'll say it again

I find it laughably retarded that they chose a 3d camera for the PSP titles, a fixed camera and they could've controlled just like they did on the consoles, but no a 3d camera is a must on a fucking system that has a single analog stick

I find it enraging to use square/triangle/circle/x for the camera, it's just terrible...

I have little memory of how PO controlled but from what I remembered, awkward ass use of camera, controls were old MGS, R for fpv, square to fire.. okay PO might be a little more awkward with the camera, but both are shit either way

but kind of an irrelevant issue these days since PW is on consoles now and controls well on there
