Metal Gear Rising up for preorder on Steam tomorrow for $20 (48 hours only)

[Squishy3]

Easily one of the best character action games released this year. (Character action is a genre that is like Devil May Cry, Viewtiful Joe, Bayonetta, etc.)

Then it goes to 20% off. The game includes all 3 DLC packs which consist of campaigns where you play as BladeWolf and Jetstream Sam, and a handful of VR missions. It also includes all the DLC items (custom armor, swords, etc.) for Raiden. In addition, you get the ability to replay cutscenes and codecs which was not included on the console versions of the game, as well as a Boss Rush mode. It releases on January 9th.

YOU ALSO GET THE BEST SOUNDTRACK IN VIDEOGAMES THIS YEAR

So pumped to be able to play this finally. It's also up for Pre-order on amazon at the same price, with a $5 coupon for some titles in January if you buy it there. $20 is a good price, will get and be closer to playing all the P* games I can. Though it can't be better than W101. That's impossible.

So, is this a thing that will work alright with kb+m, or should I break down and actually pick up a controller from somewhere?

This is definitely a controller game. The best cheapest controller I would recommend is probably a wired 360 controller which is $39.99. (Might be able to find it cheaper somewhere) Windows should find the drivers automatically. I don't know anything about 3rd party controllers by Logitech or those types of companies so no idea what of theirs are good.

A PS3 controller is fine too.

Also, do you guys think if this sells well there's a chance of MGSV on PC?

You're right, it's $37..  Though I've seen both DS3's and 360 controllers for sub $30 many times now.  I think there's finally drivers for a DS3 that aren't that sketchy chinese crap too.  So it's a matter of preference, just don't settle for a crappy Logitech. 

Also didn't know this wasn't actually coming out until the 9th, kinda sketchy they're offering it up for pre-order so far ahead with no idea of how it's actually gonna run on PC.  Still I'm sure it'll be popular enough to get fixed if they fucked up the port.

[/quote]The specs are already listed on the Amazon page, kind of high because of the cutting mechanic but there's a setting to limit how many pieces appear on screen at any given time. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HERCRAI?tag=...k129408-20

MGS2 was the last of them I've experienced and since, I've only ever wanted to watch the sequels as a movie. This one feels like it could be entertaining without getting too esoteric like MSG4.
