Revengeance is not just the only game I care about from those 3, but also the first Metal Gear game I really want to play. My interest began when Platinum Games got involved, but the boss trailer was the one that sold me on it. It will be a while before I play it though, given how I don't even have a PS3 nor a 360... A good PC port would help...
In the mean time, I've enjoyed its great music on youtube. Mistral's theme in particular:

Woah. That was incredible. I'll have to check out the rest of the game's soundtrack...

Glad to hear it. ^_^
By the way, in case someone is interested, that version of the song is not the same that appears on the "Vocal Tracks" album of the game... In fact, I still don't know what version is, even though is the best one to me. It might be a "custom" one, given how there's plenty of different versions on youtube... The game apparently uses more than one version of the themes for the bosses music, with parts that are instrumental only. I've heard some people claiming that it does this quite well.
Oh, and here's the boss trailer that sold me the game, with Japanese VA:

The themes for Monsoon and Sundowner are also quite good...

Hmm, I'll have to compare both songs for myself.
That trailer was pretty sweet. It shows the combat off as being really fluid, and it's gives a nice preview of the game's soundtrack, too. What's up with the character's mouth movements not matching their dialogue, though? Isn't the JP version the original?

Apparently the lip-synch was done with the English voices in mind. It's not surprising, given how we are talking about Metal Gear here, but it's a shame that Konami didn't bother to do a different synch for Japan too...
Whether the Japanese version is the "original" or not is somewhat debatable here. The game was made in Japan and the script writer is Japanese, but the English voices were clearly the priority, which is coherent with the previous games. The Japanese version also has "white" blood instead of red, which I've heard some people claiming it makes more sense in relation to the previous games, but I can't comment on that.
Personally, I would prefer to play the game with the Japanese VA, but there's no version that includes them with English text... The Asian version also has English voices and red blood.
