On the contrary, I strongly believe that Afro Thunder deserves his own adventure game.
Perhaps it’s a guilty and fruitless pleasure, but we as nerds love to ask the question “What would happen if these two dudes fought?” I mean, who wouldn’t like to see Kratos in a fight to the death, mano-a-mano with some other bad ass? But quite frankly, cross-overs seem to be a bit of a legal hassle. Can you imagine Sony agreeing to put Sack Boy at the mercy of some schmuck who wants to see how bean bags react to the Master Chief’s fist? Yeah, it’s probably better that we restrict this list to collections of characters from the same game universe.

Hideo Kojima popped up out of nowhere at the Microsoft Press Conference today to announce a new Metal Gear Solid game that’s “in development” for the Xbox 360. It’s called “Metal Gear Rising” and will apparently star everybody’s favorite Metal Gear Solid character, Raiden. The short teaser for the game showed what was basically the same image seen on the Kojima Production’s teaser site along with pictures of Raiden.
