Baltimore hosted the 20th Otakon convention last weekend, full of pop culture celebration and cosplayers. One particular group of four people—Pro Voltage—did a hell of a job showing off their Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance cosplay, dressing up as Raiden, Monsoon, Mistral and—in this case, transforming to—Bladewolf.
If you've been paying attention to Raiden's bodysuits (I, apparently, have not), you might notice that Raiden has a different outfit in Metal Gear Rising.
Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima posted this drawing of Metal Gear Solid character Raiden. It's not clear if this is just a drawing or whether it's in relation to the upcoming title Metal Gear Solid: Rising, which stars Raiden.
The guild of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood has expanded with a surprising new member, one that you might not want spoiled before the game arrives later this month. Ah, who are we kidding? You're going to want to know this.
Hideo Kojima, best known for making Metal Gear Solid games, is in France for the Japan Expo. He is posing with cosplayers, and pointing a plastic gun at one guy's face.
