Won a competition with come round and shopto, to win the game a week early and a load of stuff for a party. So far I've pretty much only out it in an hour ago ill update on my thoughts. Spoiler free entirely but so far way too much talking :-( and I'm a huge Metal Gear fan, and a huge hack n slash fan.

Come on, you know Metal Gear always talks your ears off about a bunch of stuff. Metal Gears are great for actually being able to increase your general knowledge through codec lectures on deterrence, START-1/2, nuclear disarment, genetics, electronic circuits, etc.. >_>

I know this is very much true of the series, it's not really the codec or cutscenes that are the problem. It suffers (so far, it may well stop) from Gears syndrome. I mean the game is very fast paced and then they use the forced walking conversations a lot so far like 10 paces, chat, 10 paces chat. I know as I say I've only just started so I'm not going to make a big deal of it so far. It's just going to be irritating if it carries on.

That's actually one thing in the demo I felt was out of pace too.
I agree with you. I hope it's just for the beginning tutorials.

I'm hoping this is the case as its pretty Platinum style bonkers in a good way. It's just a bit worrying when you consider it's a hack n slash. I'm on a level past the demo one now ill update if it goes away.

Hey, grats on getting the game and all. I wish i got it early, i've been a collector since the early days. But i'm on a cheap phone and can't find where pictures are on the twitter link, not sure i have the option.
Would you be willing to post pictures of the Front/back of the game? I like reading/looking at it but of course i can't find the pictures in your twitter.

Thank you so much for sharing this! I'm stoked that they're doing so much to promote the game here. And that benefits collectors who also happen to be lucky, like yourself! =)
Have fun with Rising! I can't wait to play it on the 19th!

About generating an image link directly from your phone, have you tried an app?
You said you have an iPhone, right?
http://photobucket.com/mobile/apps/iphone/#iphoneIf you use that Photobucket app (or a similar app) to upload a image to a url, you should be able to post that url here.
