It's always been a good challenge to beat any Metal Gear game with no kills (bar the obvious bosses). I've personally done it in Snake Eater and Guns of the Patriots, though with the equipment and improvement on controls than their successor, it wasn't at all hard. Rising will continue this trend by allowing you to complete the game without killing a single human, though you are able to cut , say, the enemy's hands off and his weapons which will make them run away in fear. However, with a game emphasising "cut at will", there are other enemies such as Cyborgs and various Mechs you can cut away... and if you wanted to, the odd watermelon ¬_¬
I've been a fan of the series since I first laid eyes on MGS for the PSone. It was revolutionary for its time, and had one of the best video game stories/plot. The series after that had it's ups and downs; Raiden for the most part of 2, when we were fooled with the Tanker mission. Though Snake Eater redeemed that... kinda. Guns of the Patriots is my second MGS game as of now and seeing Raiden as a badass in 4 was just amazing. Everyone speculated Raiden will get his own game, and with him going ninja, it was almost certain.
Rising was announced at the Microsoft E3 Press Conference last year, though it'll also come out for the PS3 and Games For Windows. Even though the Xbox FINALLY got MGS on their system, and not to be a fanboy or anything, they'll never have the true Metal Gear we've all come to love. I mean, 2 in the form of Substance isn't the best game to get ported now is it?
