Im kinda worried that lightning bolt action will move so far away from the classic metal gear gameplay that it will turn it into a game like Bayonetta, or devil may cry or god of war, dont get me wrong i like those kinds of games but im going to miss "tactical espionage action" if the new metal gear wont have any of the classic metal gear gamelay that i grew up loving. what do u think it will be about?

I think it will still be stealth action, like they clearly stated in their announcement of the game.

It's pretty obvious. Instead of playing as Raiden form MGS, you'll play as Raiden from Mortal Kombat. They released a special trailer showing when Raiden sneaks up on Batman. It's pretty intense

it has a respectable plot and compelling characters, one of the few games with ACTUAL character development, the gameplay is incredibly boring for me though.

Nice jokes guys. I think lighting bolt action implys faster paced movement alla Raiden of course, however I think after the spectacle that was Batman, they`ll have to look at other ways... especially for such a fast character as Raiden to approach the situation, such as jump over a building and being able to manage the swords in a combatic situation.

Hmm, considering Castlemania looks like a GoW style game, I'll say it's either Ninja Gaiden or DMC style action game. Or, it's a fighting game

i don't dislike it, I like that it puts a lot of emphasis on plot and character development, as was stated above, however, imo it just wasn't fun getting through the game gameplay wise.

Ah. Personally I love the gameplay. I love trying to get through the entire game without being sighted once. I'm actually worried this game may go a bit too much the DMC type route. I'm hoping it still has stealth, but more centered on melee. So maybe like Tenchu, taken to the next level. You gotta move all stealth like, and sneak behind people and chop off their heads. And of course, the classic MGS style epic boss battles :D

ya, having rising play like tenchu plus lightning powers and high speed would be full of awesome. :)

It's just a play on Raiden's name, Kojima has said on many occasions it's a stealth espionage game, I don't think they anticipated such a big reaction to it though. Anyway we won't know anything til e3.

terrible action game imo.........lightning bolt action most likely means some kind of fast paced garbage. I dont care though cause MGS3 was by far the best in the series imo.
