Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance - Five minute TGS trailer brings actual stealth and unfathomable badassery

Platinum Games' Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance has a new trailer direct from the Tokyo Game Show. It's over five minutes long, features the first proper look at some proper actual stealth gameplay, and is otherwise containing of so much showboating badassery as to be almost nauseating. In a good way.

In fact there's so much action and story packed into the trailer that it might almost feel spoilerific, were it not for the fact that the entire thing is currently in Japanese. As it is though, click play and enjoy the sensory overload (though maybe excersise a little caution if you do actually speak Japanese).

Looking forward to next February just that little bit more now, or holding out for Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes?
