MGS:R cant be MGS5....its the start of not only a new arc but a design too.

why can't that be MGS5 then...its set in the MG universe and so far we know it has a character (Raiden) who playes an important role in the series

because you generally dont start a new series with a number..example: Megaman and MegamanX series, Mario Galaxy, Metroid prime series...these have pervious installments but artn numbered aftre them because they start a new series( or arc), MGS:R is a new series with a new whole new design

im not following you when you say "whole new series" as far as I know Rising is part of the Metal Gear series whether its part of the main series or is a spin off cannot be determined yet

let me explain alittle better....MGS:R does take place in the main series world , BUT could have a different story focus since the MGS arc ( MGS PO - MGS4) is over, so this begins a NEW chaper, with a NEW story, with a NEW design...hence it cant be called MGS 5 because its NOT(or possibly not) a continuation of MGS series....im trying another recent games series to give an example but nothings comming to mind..are you familiar with the .Hack series???

personally I believe if there was going to be a "whole new story and design" in the Metal Gear series, there wouldn't be any returning characters and we know Raiden will play a part in Rising. Also if you think about it MGS3 told a new chapter in the MG storyline and used a new design (CQC, camouflage) and MGS3 is canon...so thats why I believe theres a possibility MGS:R is canon...however its most likely not and Kojima will save MGS5 for nex gen hardware and im not aware of the .hack series
