the Japanese RPGs are not available), but all have had reference to SEGA removed from the store pages.Īs I have said many times, Japan has the largest number of regional restrictions. * Technically, there are 4 or 5 SEGA games on Steam in Japan (this does not include the old Genesis games of which all but the last collection were released, ie. SEGA*, Namco, Konami, won't release anything. Only ones that do are Bethesda Japan (all games so far), Capcom (limited selection compared to other regions), and Square (limited selection compared to other regions). The majority of them will not release PC games here, especially on Steam. The robotic enemies are as detailed as ever and don’t get me started on how awesome the Metal Gears look, even when they’re trying to kill you.Originally posted by llWouNdeDEaGLell:game not available in japan ! Raiden has changed little since our run in with him in MGS4, though his armor is more intricate and he has upgraded several things. Every single character is sharp and crisp, the levels are detailed and the environments rich and full. I don’t have a single complaint on the graphics, they are simply spectacular. Keeping track of them all, dodging the main boss and trying to see where you are all at the same time becomes beyond challenging when you’re still getting used to the controls. One of the earlier bosses has 8 arms and a small army of three-armed robots all coming at you simultaneously. ![]() The boss battles are insane and I don’t just mean from a difficulty standpoint. You also pick up new weapons from certain boss battles and those are upgradable as well. You can learn new skills, upgrade your weapons and extend your life and energy meters. The game also allows for Customization, which is new to the Metal Gear games. Alternately, you can use the X and Y buttons (on Xbox 360) to slice horizontally or vertically instead of using the right stick. Blade Mode allows you to focus only on your sword, forgoing movement in exchange for exactitude in aim with your sword by using the left stick to aim your field of vision and the right to slice at precise angles. The battle mechanics are well thought out and the controls are mostly intuitive, though there is a Blade Mode that is not and requires quite a bit of practice to get the hang of. While I usually don’t like the button mashing slice and dice (unless it comes with demons, vampires and/or sarcastic comments), I did my best to give Revengeance its due. ![]() With the fan base for MGS being as devout as they are, I don’t know how many will welcome this change, let alone embrace it. The game mechanics have less in common with Metal Gear than one would hope and with the hack and slash and button mashing that results, Devil May Cry is looking like a possible alternative to this game, even though the story’s genre is completely different. As the story progresses, you make your way through to trying to take down a company of mercenaries with a plan to destabilize the region and, in the words of one of its early spokespersons, “give War a chance.” I’d also like to add that while it is technically a John Lennon quote (“Give Peace a chance”), turning it around is a bit arrogant and made me want to smack the guy who said it and possibly the one writing the dialogue. This is not the Metal Gear you know and love, though it does take place in the now familiar Metal Gear universe. However, just as the peaceful city around you begins to take shape the Prime Minister is attacked and you’re thrust into the game mechanics of running, dodging, slicing and dicing everything from cyborg soldiers to Metal Gear leftovers from the war. Lightning Bolt by his current employer, is part of a private security company employed by the local government, that has been stabilizing a region in Africa. ![]() The story takes us at least three years beyond Metal Gear Solid 4.
