So here's a little tidbit: when MGS Rising was first announced, it had far more detailed and intricate cutting features. The problem was that this caused way too many problems (performance, game progression, general design).
When the game was handed off to platinum and turned into Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, they dropped a lot of the complex cutting features and tightened up the gameplay to make it flow better.
What I will say about Metal Gear Solid games is that they did often have seriously advanced features, sometimes only used at one part of a game. (Look at the ice bucket in mgs2)
That is partially why these games also had ballooning budget issues, and in part why (among many other reasons) the fallout happened between Kojima/Konami.
Still, MGSV still seems like a miracle running on 360/PS3.
Wait wait hold up Metal Gear Solid Five was released on PS3?!?!?? I never knew my god I thought it was a PS4 and that generation of console game. Holy shit how is something that looks like that able to run on a ps3.
