Wow, not a single "Nanomachines, son" quote troughout the entire review. Not sure if I'm impressed or disappointed.
"[Those] memes end here."
+79BigCat "no...I..passed one on....to you"
+Luigizilla Don't fuck with this meme!
Free will is a myth, religion is a joke
We are pawns, controlled by something greater
Memes... the DNA of the soul
+Luigizilla THE MEMES JACK
"The memes!"
"I use to play college ball you know."
"Don't fuck with this senator!"
"Nanomachines, son."
Little Latino kid.
Otacon's player status.
That one guard reading an anime magazine.
There are so many great moments in this game, and the music is just, perfection.
AshXXMayftw is the "IM FUCKING INVINCIBLE" meme fucking invincible to you?
“I want him...Dead.”
"Like the good old days after 9/11!"
LET'S DANCE
Pretty boy
The music in Rising really puts the word "metal" in Metal Gear.
Marius Urucu Ye boi
Lmao
It really puts the rules in nature
Literally... it's now METAL Gear!!!!!!!!
OMG! 😂😂😂
It feels so surreal seeing how Johnny reviewed MGRR simply as part of the MG marathon several years before the game became a meme behemoth and certified cult classic. He really was ahead of its time
You do realise this game was a meme gold mine since pretty much the instant it came out right?
@@santiagonovoa9230
never heard of it
Ever since I saw Raiden spin two Gecko around by break dancing at a high speed, I said to myself, "I want a Metal Gear game that has this kind of stuff."
And I am so happy I got it.
CDX: "I want a game that is this the entire way through."
**Platinum Games crashes through the window**
@@demi-femme4821 I'll take your entire stock
I still think the story is a nice continuation of things that MGS4 started. Cyborgs popping up left and right, more twisted, extreme machines being manufactured, the world in general growing more mad, it just seems like a natural escalation of things.
Anyway, I love this game.
heh, I knew I liked you.
You could say the story really followed the… rules of nature.
I’ll see myself out.
Honestly, the stealth is one of my favorite aspects of this game, because it feels like an intentional joke to have these traditional _Metal Gear_ scenarios thrown into this game of all games, only for Raiden to respond by leaping thirty feet in the air, stabbing through the length of an enemy's entire body, chopping it into fifty pieces, and eating its spine - all of which still qualifies as a "stealth kill," because this game is just that gloriously over-the-top.
_Metal Gear Rising_ isn't one of the five best games I've ever played, but it's like _Pacific Rim_ in that every single moment fills me with so much pure, childish glee that it's one of my top five favorites.
RULES OF NATURE!
Man this soundtrack is amazing!
+DarkKnightGrave Kinda over the top. But then again its Metal Gear.
i have from rules of nature the part where it says "rules of nature" and onward as my ringtone and as my alarm clock. i pretty much jump out of my bed when i hear it
Nikke 2800 Well is pretty loud imagine it in the GRINDCORE VERSION!
+DarkKnightGrave While guys, Rules of Nature is the Only Thing We Know For Real in Rising.
+TheOmniGamer we are our own masters now
8:25 a shadow the hedgehog game by platinum, anyone?
+GammaWALLE If it's like this I'd be down for that honestly
+Rich12345620 He needs to beat up the president from Sonic Adventure 2 who hulks up.
+ew275x Sir here is a blank cheque write down any figure on it and I will pay you to make that happen.
i said same thing
I wouldn't mind and if they fell I'm sure it won't effect much but if it succeeded then hey good on them
THEY NEED TO MAKE ANOTHER RISING GAME, ITS LIKE CRACK NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I REPLAY IT I ALWAYS END UP SMILING LIKE A CHILD BEING TOLD HE CAN HAVE ALL THE CANDY
Something that you didn't really mention is that this game actually has a shit ton of optional codec calls. Practically every time a new event happens in the stage (whether going to a new area or when a cutscene starts) there's like almost 10 new codec calls you can make. My guess is that those were there for those Metal Gear fans who prefer a little more exposition and characterization, since they certainly talk a bit more about the plot and certain backstories there. Hell, with the codec calls you even get more of a suspense/mystery feel in the final level than if you just went blazing through it.
So there's certainly a lot more to the story in the game, but it's optional. Considering the type of game it is though, that's perfectly fine. No-one wants to play a high-intensity action game with super-long cutscenes with tons of exposition. That stuff's there for the Metal Gear fans. Hell, you even get a trophy for listening to all the codec calls, which easily adds another...5 hours to the game? Possibly more.
You were just like me, trying to make history.
+Xeppeli But who's to judge, the right from wrong
+Kevin Mejia when our guard is down, i think we'll both agree
+Frenchy Cone That violence breeds violence,But in the end it has to be this way
I've carved out my path, you've followed your wrath, but maybe we're both the same
+Xeppeli The world has turned and so many have burned
It is so strange having Armstrong be the senator of Colorado. And even MORE strange to be fighting in DENVER. You have no idea how satisfying it is to slice a Light Rail to bits, oh my god.
Obvious reference to Schwarzenegger and California.
+DarkAura19 The greatest way to take your rage out on the RTD
+DarkAura19 You live in Colorado (or Denver) or something? Forgive the possibly dumb question, I felt the need to ask. On top of that, I also have to ask something else: Do you hate one of your Senators?
Naw it's okay, I wasn't really clear on that. Yep, I'm a Denver native. And uh... I guess I don't really love OR hate my senator. I'm indifferent to politics.
Yeah, I'm indifferent to politics too, but I feel as though I need to vote for the next president. But that's a totally different can of worms. Anyway, how are you?
Why is this game always remind me of Megaman X?
-The first boss you encounter cant be killed and you have to lose... Just like in Megaman X.
-All the Power ups are after you defeat an opponent...
-Samuel is Zero and Raiden is Megaman
-All the bosses are Uniques and also similar to the Main Character type of Androids...
-Both Megaman and Raiden have a Robotic Pet Dog...
-Their both have a Professor on each sides... Doktor and Dr. Light.
-Roll and Sunny are kind of similar... never goes on the battlefield but provides helps...
I mean i could go on but this is Megaman on Steroids! lol

Aww, not a word about the music...
+Phantom Fox This bait was more transparent than glass.
Rules Of Nature! I'm my own master now! A stranger I remain! It has to be this way!
The music is AWESOME!
9:22 "Rocking out with heavy metal tunes that flawlesly reflect the circustamces.."
I like how you ended this video with a close-up of Old Snake's bum on the left and a loop of Raiden doing taint-flips on the right. It's like a backhanded comment about how subtle Revengeance is compared to the rest of the Metal Gear franchise!
Gotta love how the video just cuts the bullshit and starts off with a *RULES OF NATURE!*
8:21
This makes me wish Shadow the Hedgehog gets a sequel but just as whimsical as MGSR...
It should be called Shadow the Hedgehog: Revengeance
Hell, let's get a remake that embraces the camp instead. Call it Shadow the Hedgehog: That Damn Remake
So, fun fact, the cutscene where Raiden is driving on the highway into Denver, the area is realistic to the actual location.
The big building on the left of the highway is a Dog/Cat food factory and smells awful.
"Fine you wanna know why I call it hack n slash? Cause I spend 95% of the game hacking and slashing things with my katana!"
YES. THANK YOU. That's what I've been saying about games like this for several years now.
There are people that don't consider this a hack & slash?... o_O
***** Ehh. I think Metroidvania games have that particular "backtracking with a new item" element. Kinda like Zelda, kinda like Megaman X, kinda like Shantae...
+Agent 005 Metroidvania's refer specifically to the design of the world, non-linear platform game, it's a completely open ended world that you choose how to traverse. It's NOT a genre of game because this is exclusively a fan made term referring to a specific type of platformer.
I think it's also due the negative image a game could go by if you used a typical genre title. Yes, there's somewhat more to it than what comes to mind when someone generally thinks "hack n slash" but the fans shouldn't feel ashamed or belittled because of a name.
+300-I.Q. Prower So cut me some slack
The real joy of this game is playing through it again on a higher difficulty and feeling like you've mastered it.

NANOMACHINES SON!!! Sorry somebody had to say that
Could Metal Gear be considered a macromachine?
+ThePreciseClimber Hey! Hey! we don't question the word of Kojima SON.
+ThePreciseClimber No, Patrick, Metal Gear is not a nanomachine.
+KamektheMagikoopa1 No, neither is the Shagohod.
Correction:
Steven Armstrong isn't a Darwinist, he's a Social-Darwinist, there's a huge difference.
One follows the Theory of Evolution and Natural Selection as proposed by Charles Darwin, and the other one is usually just looking for an excuse to do a bunch of horrible shit.
So huge that they have similar names?
@@randomduck8679 Lots of things have similar names dumb ass.
@@randomduck8679 Social Darwinism tries to apply Darwin's theory of evolution to how society's culture and laws should work, that's the connection. Darwin actually strongly denounced the few that had this sort of ideology while he was alive and it is a very shit ideology indeed.
I think the main thing is that Darwinism exams it as how nature "works," while Social Darwinism advocates it as a method to be actively employed rather than simply observed, which is where more moral quandary comes in.
um johnny, i don't know if you knew this, but those dlc stories are free to download on consoles xd
they are!!!! I need to get back on it ASAP then

+RiderNexus Was the movie good?
***** It was, perhaps one of the funniest films I've seen in a long time, and I like to call it Fox's apology for X-Men Origins and Fantastic Four (2015)
RiderNexus I doubt you'll be able to comprehend how relieved I am.
I had faith as soon as I saw the costume XD
Indeed friend, this was actually my first Metal Gear game. I have never actually played a Metal Gear game.

Shorter by syllable count, not letter count.
What about a Sonic game made by PlatinumGames? I'd be down for that!
+TopHatLucario I think they could probably make a good Rygar game
Stephen O'Brien What the heck is a Rygar?
So a much better version of Sonic Boom?
+TopHatLucario vanquish is fun game
+shadowfan1998 This is exactly what I have said many times before! Platinum would've been a MUCH better choice than Big Red Button. We most likely would've gotten the "Sonic Synergy" (as was the working title) we actually wanted!
Dude awesome video, I liked how you pronounced Revengence with that drammatic tone, I must say you have some balls to do the whole metal gear series so you earn my respect
Raiden poop scene made me feel funny
Bortkupo yes indeed nozomi
I may be crucified because this is the Internet and all but whatever this is my favorite Metal Gear game in general. now I adore every game in this whole series just this one just felt a certain way to make it my favorite. again I love the series just this one happens to be my personal favorite.
+Zavven Sadein It's the most exciting for sure. It's a game that more shows the level of insane goofy fun that Metal Gear could have had, rather than stick to the standard style. It's an outcast, and a damn good one.
The music my god rhe music is amazing I got the soundtrack and I love it
This is the only one im somewhat good at, in that I play it on something higher than very easy mode...
Still love MGS2 and MGS4 anyway though.
It's the least "Metal Gear" in the series but I have to agree with you. I just had the most fun with this one and found myself revisiting it significantly more often then any other Metal Gear game.
I always wished this game was on Wii or Wii U so could go crazy with the Wii remote.
+MalikJC In THIS game? Do you WANT your arms to fall off?
+Lugbzurg it'll be fun while it lasts
+MalikJC Just get Madworld. Your arms will be sore by the end of the first world.
+Lugbzurg Those blade mode segments look very Wiimote compatible.
***** I have a PS3 copy. There isn't actually any mention of PlayStation Move on the box, front or back, that I can see.
Wait did Johnny not talk about the soundtrack?! First Sunshine, then Arkham Knight, now this!
...and naturally, the link to the previous review is a shot of Snake's ass going through the microwave hallway.
Subtle Johnny. Subtle.
"you ain't listening, GIVE WAR A CHANCE!"
"Mind if I cut in?"
"I am zee cold vind of France!"
"kill or be killed jack!"
"your not greedy........
YOUR BATSHIT INSANE!!"
Here are the reasons why Senator Armstrong is the best final boss ever:
1. Before getting Sam's sword, you can't do sh*t to him.
2. Armstrong's speech
3. "Don't f*ck with this senator!"
4. "Nanomachines, son!"
5. He destroys a Metal Gear with his bare hands
6. Bladewolf helps you out
7. "Even dead, that guy is a pain in my ass!"
8. Raiden says "Let's dance"
9. Perfectly balanced difficulty
10. The battleground turns into Hell
11. Armstrong picks up and throws cars and boulders at you, which you slice up
12. Did I mention everything Armstrong says?
13. That. F*cking. Incredible. Music.
14. Really, the whole battle.
15. Raiden finishes the fight by ripping out Armstrong's HEART.
That is why Senator Armstrong is my favorite boss in any video game ever.
It's a little tragic to see that David didn't actually finish things off in MGS4, but I guess it makes sense. It's hard to change the world, and it doesn't always happen because one man thought it was possible. Hope David still got to take it easy up in Alaska. He deserves it.
Nanomachines son.

I've been having a really shitty week, and this made my day. Keep up the great work, Johnny!
I am so glad Johnny loves Sam's playstyle. I want more Sam even now. Far and away my favourite character in the franchise.
AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAA
@@user-sn9qy7ju8f ... ha...?
Johnny, you're almost there! The videos have been excellent so far; don't lose steam now! You've done a fantastic job explaining and documenting the Metal Gear series, and I'm excited to hear your opinions on Peace Walker, Ground Zeroes, and Phantom Pain! Keep up the great work!
It’s funny because Snake (either of them) are much more of a ninja than Raiden is in his “ninja” persona, hell Raiden was more of a ninja in MGS2.
Awesome review, Johnny! It's like as if both the conception and the execution behind this game really do go "hand-in-hand". What I mean by that is they both work so well and this game really is so cool and awesome to plow through and not just because MGR: Revengeance was made by Platinum Games but also because it's a game where you just simply have so much fun without even a care in the world, just like any other video game before or after or whatever. That's the beauty of it, both that and playing the game on a much difficult level and all that jazz.
Bladewolf and Sam's Sidestories may be DLC, but they are Free DLC as far as I know. At least on Xbox 360 they are.
They were made free after some time
Mattimation They're only free for America though, which is a big shame
Enigma No they were free for me too. I'm from Sweden.
I'm a huge metal gear solid fan and I just wanna say thank you for doing this Metal Gear videos. I'm always excited when I get home and see you've uploaded the next game. Thank you!
I think hack and slash action game works just fine as a descriptor. I'll never understand what the heck character action game is even supposed to mean. It doesn't really describe anything about the gameplay.
I prefer the term "spectacle fighter".
So, how did Platinum Games manage to make a good Metal Gear game with a vastly different play style?
Nanomachines, son
Nice choice of clips during that endslate, Johnny
We are nearly done! We have come so far and I have loved every bit of this marathon! :D
this came out sooner than expected, love it
Whenever i get to the part when he is riding on his bike, i end up singing highway to hell Raiden version from Renegade for Life
i think metal gear rising was amazing cause i love raiden and game about raiden was mindblowing i just love metal gear rising
Had a crappy day but this video made it a lot better. Thank you Johnny.
Been a waiting for this Review! So glad it's here now!
You just gave me an idea... What if Playinum Games did remake Shadow the Hedgehog? :D
Ah...hm...It's Shadow the Hedgehog...but with Bayonetta gameplay...Chaos powers and guns...it would be as jarring as a martial artist at a preschool, but it would be amazing.
Another idea, what if Platinum Games cooperated with Sonic Team while making the Werehog Gameplay in Sonic Unleased?

Metal Gear survive
"Hold my beer"
FOR SO LONG I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS REVIEW WOOOO
Great review as always. Can't wait for the Acid series review, Peace Walker, & The final review.
I really loved this game, it was my first Metal Gear... yeah. Anyway, I loved it, amazing soundtrack, amazing gameplay. Made me biased to use the swords only when I began playing Bayonetta on the Wii U.
Johhny:this is the worst metal gear
Konami:hold my beer
Ryan Fanstone You don’t get it. As a Metal Gear game, it is bad, since it has almost no stealth based things in it, with a few exceptions. As a video game, it is easily one of the best.
The first video of this marathon came out on November 16. This marathon has been going on for nearly 3 months and we still have another month's worth of games to go. I think that "marathon" is definitly an appropriate term. I love SomeCallMeJohnny, but I'm so ready to see something new. Too bad it won't be till the middle of March.
Morning guys! I've been waiting for this.
I don't like metal music.
But when I hear Rules of Nature
I get PUMPED
Same
man, I loved this game
the story is still pretty cool imo, and even if it isn't as deep as mgs, guess what, solid is not on the cover
the combat, visuals, ost and voice acting are all awesome too!!
Great Review, as usual, keep up the great work Jon!
I hit the like button the second I heard Rules of Nature. Already excited for this review!
Ridiculous shit that was brought in after MGS fits Raiden's word perfectly. Especially considering how ridiculous Raiden himself is.
I guess my old video has some relevance now since John review this game.
Search for SomecallmeJohnny vs Senator Armstrong! since for some reason I can't put a link
IVE BEEN waiting for this
Excellent, Johnny. Just excellent. Love this channel.
Johnny you realize you have to review Mobile Light Force 2 now right?
I now noticed that Armstrong looks kind of like Jared from subway
I Can't believe this Review has already been 3 Years!
I discovered this channel around the Metal Gear Solid 3 Review.
Time flies by, man....
i haven't watched the video yet (I'm at the 0:22 second mark) but let me just say what i want to say about this "Platinum Masterpiece".
MGR: Revengeance is what Action games are supposed to be. It's hard to explain in words, but whenever i play this, i always have fun. I start up the game up and thinking, " I'll play a level or two," but then a few hours pass and I realize i played the entire campaign from start to finish everytime.
And before anyone says this game isn't MGS, well you're right. This is Raiden's game, not Solid Snake's game. and personally, I'm for it. It's a spinoff series that keeps some elements from the main series and it does it well.... when you get pass the nanomachines..... Son! (sorry, I had to! XD )
ok, I'm done running my mouth, ONTO THE REVIEW!!!
BlackBirdGuardian I understand. This game is kickass. I rented it from gamefly, but now 'm buying it for the xbox one game store!
I really wish Jetstream Sam and Blade Wolf had at least a few more levels to go through.
There are entire free dlcs for them on the consoles
I LOVED THIS GAME TO DEATH! I bought it on the PS3 when it first came out & didn't know what to expect but boy! did it blow my mind
Watching this review made me wanna replay the game! thanks Johnny!
MGS RPG? Really? O_O Can't wait for the next video!
+ChampionRevilo I've not played it, but I thought I heard it was a collectible card game. XD
its a turn based card strategy game
RULES OF NATURE
SlightlyChan memes
Great Review. When this game first came out, I wasn't interested but I recently picked it up and I love it. I've already beat it twice. I want to play more platinum games.
another great review, cant wait for Acid!
Why do people have a problem with the term "Hack and Slash" as far as game genre's go is probably the most accurate description for Metal Gear Rising.
hack and slash can really refer to any game with a sword
metal gear rising is part of a specific subgenre that has a niche but vocal following
Bayonetta Solid, anyone?
YEEEEEEES
Or include in smash and bayonetta just got in and yes I'm aware that raiden is PlayStation all stars
I should really be paying attention to the lesson going on right now in school but, Johnny made a new video.
I disagree with you on the one-dimensional nature of the bad guys, a lot about their beliefs and motives are explained in the codec calls and while I agree the story is a lot more focused on being fun there is still a lot of philosophical value in this spinoff.
"explained in code calls" lol. That's how underwhelming they are
mgs did it better
still zero dislikes... awesome
1 now..
+M. Bison, Leader of the Internet, also referred to as OMG its Ruthless
Sorry. There's a combo breaker.
You had to say that didn't you? Now 2 people disliked

Thanks man! I feel like playing this game again.
Yo m8, when's Earthbound marathon?
I think he made a poll and mgs won
*mother series
+deadlysnakeman after the metal gear marathon
deadlysnakeman Sorry i thought you said "where's' not when is
I'm still convinced that Armstrong uses Haki from One Piece.
I hope someone gets that reference.
Yeah kinda like vergo
Wow amazing can't wait for the next videos !!!!
Also kinda thinking, should the next marathon be about Ninja Gaiden ?
Holy shit. It really does go with everything.
*cue unoriginal early comment*
2:54 I disagree,MRG started to get really serious and deep toward the end if you think about it!
7:32 Ok no,come on!
1 Dimensional every Wind Of Detruction member (except Sundowner,he fights for money) has a philosophy and a cause they fight!
Looking forward to seeing the Metal Gear Acid review!
My favourite soundtrack of ALL TIME!
Also about the "you can kiss stealth goodbye" thing. Going for a pure S rank run will make you rethink that line.
The story isn't _quite_ as black-and-white as you say. Raiden's beliefs are more aligned with Armstrong's than he lets on.
God, I will NEVER get tired of the ost. 🤘🤘
