Metal Gear Solid Rising is a hack n slash with no stealth action

For starters, it is a bit early to be making any assumptions on design decisions made for the game, but I suppose this is just for the sake of argument over a game that likely won't be seeing the light of day for another two plus years at the earliest.

Closer to three years would be my guess. That's when we'll be playing any MGS on the Xbox.

Even if Kojima Productions could manage to release the game on a shortened development cycle, what would that say about the likely quality and depth of the finished product?

But since this is all somewhat speculation anyway, I don't see why a game starring Raiden wouldn't have plenty of close combat blade and sword action as opposed to shooting mixed with stealthy movement.

Of course if they're sticking with the whole "cyborg ninja" theme seen during MGS4 and at the tail end of MGS2, it would seem a bit more natural to focus on learning new techniques and abilities for Raiden, rather than focusing on amassing access to a huge arsenal of small arms weapons.

And besides, what could be stealthier than ninjas? Especially cyborg ninjas?!

Chuck Norris.  But he doesn't need stealth, people pretend not to see him when he is out and about.
