  • why hatin on dis guy "RAIDEN"?! he's actually a true handsome, pretty boy, and beautiful persona just like the fallen angel lucifer. if i had that face i am the pussy destroyer. sorry for my bad english.

  • @ffivgod4 i cant see what i typed b4 but yh i agree david hayter is a good voice actor.. i think i meant raiden.. not a big fan of raiden lol

  • El mejor video que he visto en toda mi vida, ¡¡¡¡¡Que viva raiden!!!!!!!

    This isthe best video to I watch in youtube, I love raiden

  • RAIDEN is finally on the new mgs: rising for xbox360. thumbs up if u liked the trailer of MGS RISING

  • I don't get why people say Raiden is whiny and gay. The pretty boy looks? Dante from Devil May Cry and ALL MALE LEADS from the FINAL FANTASY series are "pretty boys" and they are not labeled gay! He complains and is prone to emo-like outbursts? He was a child soldier and was thrown into a mission as a naive rookie who was kept out of the loop as to the events occuring: I think he's entitled to a complaints, frustration, anger, and anxiety! Raiden is a worthy protege for Snake.

  • @nonamexg18 Here's how I see it: Snake is like a cross between Jack Bauer, Clint Eastwood and Rambo: Macho,a aggressive, cynical, battle scarred and hardened, bitter and stoic badass. Raiden is more like Jason Bourne crossed with Leo Di Caprio's character in Scorcesse films (Gangs of NY, Departed, Shutter Island): he's damaged/traumatized by his past, guiltridden, naive, kept in the dark about the conspiracies around him, unsure of his own self and identity but courageous and strong when needed.

  • @nonamexg18 Excellent comments Raiden a great character and comrade to his uncle dave.

  • would of been better without the fag song

  • Raiden is good but the song sucks :S

  • Glad to see some raiden love!

    But... he doesnt yet hold a candle to snake; snake is jaded as fuck, an old bitter soldier, stoic like a motherfucker, mad history, deep scars, yet somehow innocent. In MGS4 you play as him old and broken, just waiting for him to die-- it's so awesome!! And he's one of the few characters who can pull all of that off without being cheesy. If the new game is POST mgs4, then i think raiden can have enough street cred that showing his human side again would be cool.

  • Snake is better because he is a heartless fighting machine he doesn't let his feelings get in his way in M.G.S. 1 he beat the shit out of Meryl well the player did but gray fox is the exception snake didn't want to kill gray fox but he had too anyway Raiden kept getting bugged by his girlfriend and he let it take over his entire well being snake is better because he doesn't have feelings i mean he killed his own father!

  • Have you even PLAYED MGS2? o_o

  • I have indeed i have played 1,2,and 3 not trying to diss raiden but all in all snake is better thats how he was made raiden is just human snake is a natural born soldier

  • Raiden in MGS2> Raiden in MGS4. In my opinion. I just can't stand his generic "ZomG badAss ninja" persona.

  • Agree Raiden way better as human.Being so human was his strength.

  • Fun trivia fact: Konami went out of its way to keep Raiden's inclusion in MGS2 a secret until the game came out over here, going as far as to replace Raiden with Snake in the teasers. While Raiden appeared in a few trailers in his scuba gear, his presence wasn't as emphasized.

  • in mgs4 hes insane

  • Raiden in mgs 2 looks so gay but in mgs 4 he looks badass

  • As I prefer Snake I don't think Raiden was all that shabby... All my friends say Raiden is gay and Raiden sux etcetc... but hell I don't see what's so wrong with him!

  • because people can't accept a change that's why

  • @D4n13lwwe That's true. People are gonna die when the next metal gear comes out. Snake is gone for good.

  • Snake loves Raiden they are like brothers and are meant to be different but both good.

  • Can´t wait for Metal Gear Solid Rising "Raiden is Back" X3

  • Raiden's cool and all, but I just don't think that any Metal Gear games set after MGS4 will be the same without Snake. I heard that MGS4 is the last canonical game that'll feature Snake, and that's it.

    Without Snake, there wouldn't BE a Metal Gear series at all.

  • hail jack the ripper:D

  • i agree wit all of you raidens had some pretty good times and he's had some pretty bad ones too i think he delt wit it pretty freakin good if he made it this far raidens always been my favorite

    RAIDEN RULEZ lol

  • What a mature true comment.Raiden went through far more than any.

  • AWESOME VIDEO I remember commenting on this video in 2007. It was my first comment ever on YOUTUBE

    You got tallent man ;D

  • Anyone would be anxious with the horrendous childhood Raiden had to overcome.I think he was a true hero to overcome all that and be nagged by his gf all the way.She was preggers though and probably a little worried herself.

  • Raiden returned the favour by aiding Snake in his final mission in MGS4 and saved him from death on many occasions during the game. Love him or hate him, Raiden does have a lot of depth!

  • Hell yeah. I've always liked Raiden

    Even in MGS2 when everybody said he was gay and shit, haha, I stood by him (hypothetically) when nobody else did :P

    RAIDEN OWNS

  • Raiden always cool I agree.DADDY COOL JACK.

  • You know why? Because it made Snake look a hell of a lot more impressive as a character and blatantly superior to Raiden in every way imaginable! Kojima made him a mentor figure to an incapable and anxious first timer such as Raiden. There is no way Raiden would have prevailed in his mission without Snake's guidance.

  • Definately agree.

  • Did Raiden have a tendency to whine and complain in MGS2? Absolutley, unlike Snake who is a legendary soldier and a veteran on the battle field, Raiden had no real combat experience besides VR training and suffered from surpressed memories that haunted him in his nightmares, he was assigned to thwart the plan of Solidus Snake and Dead Cell on a mission no amateuer like Raiden should be a part of. Hideo Kojima used Raiden to avoid depicting Snake as the rookie and in my opinion, he did right.

  • i think hes badass he took on like 10 metal gear rays that was bad ass

  • So true and he had to overcome a much more abusive childhood too.Daddy cool jack

  • 25!

  • snake and raiden are the most badass characters in the whole mgs games

  • well there are no other "main characters" anyway...so..

  • i never had a problem with raiden, i thought he was cool. but its just i was expecting to play as snake. its like watching a chuck norris film and insted of chuck norris you get will smith. will smith is still cool hes just no chuck norris.

  • I understand it was a big surprise but kojima was very clever.Raiden definately added something and it would have not been as good without him.He is like snakes nephew and they care for each other.

  • Great analogy!

  • Nice analogy. I don't have anything against raiden, and I find it kind of funny that people that play other kind of games with this kind of pretty boy characters complain about raiden, so as i find it funny when people prefer esteroid muscled ones. Anyway, maybe it was a shock replacing Snake being very different to him... but anyway, mgs is quite manga like too...

  • Raiden cool coz he was so different i think.His uncle Snake rated him though.

  • EXACTLY!

  • if Raiden wasnt in metal gear solid 2, than I wouldnt have been so hyped about this series, SERIOUSLY, Raiden added Hype, excitement, because his character shows him to be innocent, and it dissolves u in the story, because u feel for his innocense and confusion in mgs2...u need something different...

  • Raiden is awesome, and so does Snake :)

    I don't know why so many people hate Raiden, he's cool :D

    Loved the video *.*

  • MGS2 is 9.5 out of 10! (gamespot score)

  • RAIDEN ALWAYS COOL AND THE DADDY.

  • raiden is seriously gay, snake is old coz those fucking mugs at konami are morons. I jus can't see how any man / kid would wanna play with that homo raiden, snake is a fucking mercinary! bad boy!! best game charactor of all time - only thing that has let snake down in recent years is the voice actor david hayter and some of the script.

  • lovely video djsamera raiden has always beenthe best and his character is so important to metal gear.appart from rose whinging his story is so good too.but as a female i know she had her reasons tho.

  • I like MGS2 but i reckon it should of had the "playable" Snake for longer, say for about half the game, rather than 1/5(Tanker Chapter)of it. But still, one of the best games i have ever played. The Metal Gear Solid series has the best characters, story and music in the history of gaming imo.

  • damn rightt it does..

    i want the them song of mgs2 as the U.S. of A national anthem hahaha

  • Only the sad few still dont like Raiden .He was always cool and had a way harsher life than any of the clone boys.Thats a fact.

  • what is the song?

  • cant remember but the band is the razmers or sothin like that cant spell there name

  • the rasmus - in the shadows

  • I think Raiden is the best =3 . Godd vid ^^· .

  • Raiden kicks ass in MGS4

  • (spoiler)

    yeah when he takes out all the soldiars with no arms yet at the end he has his arms back

  • I LOVE how youv'e synched the part where raiden gets shocked with the signing part.

  • thanx 4 giving that away 4 ppl who dont know dipshit

  • in MGS4 Raiden help snake twice but hi lose his own arms:(

  • snake is the best hands down. ridan is a bitch compared to him.

  • he's not a "bitch" though...

    yeah, snake is awesome :3

    but without Raiden, there wouldn't be a MGS2, which would really suck

    he's a valuable character :D

    yes, but snake is still better

  • what is the song?

  • the rasmus-in the shadows

  • ive never seen someone prefer raiden over snake, snakes a pure badass and all raiden does is bitch, hell raiden didnt even accomplish his mission on his own like snake did

  • Raiden was shaped like Snake through his "training" in MGS 2 so he isnt his shadow his like earlier unexpirienced version of snake Its just that we got used to snake and thats why everyone prefer him

  • the pplz at 3:30 (enemys) remind me of haven troopers (mgs4) and for all ppl who might read this who have to pass trhough outer haven in mgs4( GOOD LUCK

  • wow, do u like suck at shooters or something? there isnt really anything in mgs4 thats hard to kill after u get the rail gun: gekkos = ez mode. (especially once you get the anti-material gun)

  • depends what dificulty your player, ive played it on extreme, and lets put it this way, if one sees you your dead

  • Raiden is like Snakes shadow, hes cool but snake is better

  • Raiden is cool I mean he's is no snake but hey he is not all that bad

  • i think the best line in this game is when snake tells fortune

    "you want eternal rest, i got it right here"

    (:

  • this is so cool i love it raiden and snake raiden kicks but

  • i have played this game so many times over and im not one bit bored of it

  • no manches raiden es gay y snake es mejor que raiden!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • man ppl stop hatin on raiden damn... whats wrong with him. imean do u hate him just because u cant play as snake?.... i like snake but i like raiden just as much stop talking shyt about him

  • but snake is the main character of the whole game

  • i think its the difference in cultures that makes raiden less appealing to western audiences. Raiden looks more feminine in comparison to Snake, and I dont think that translates well to us westerners, but plays well over in Japan. I mean look at final fantasy, majority of main characters look "pretty" as opposed to rugged and manly.

  • i rember when i had this game, i love playing as raiden. the katana rules!

  • Raiden is the hottest character ever! He's put in situations that he just can't out of, like Rose's constant babbling about April 30th, and well... how she's curious. How she really wants to know about Jack's past.

    All that.. it makes him hotter. ;)

    (Ahem... not to forget to mention the part in Arsenal Gear... waking up... naked... ;D)

  • waking up naked?

  • Yes. In the near end.

  • AGREED! :D

  • No, Raiden isn't gay - despite the fact he usually tries to avoid Rose, but he has his reasons. Snake and Otacon are definitely NOT gay, they may share a strong friendship - but that's not all. They were partners for many years, what do you expect?

    The song goes well with Raiden's personality. He was only trying to avoid Rose so she wouldn't stumble into his past - something he hates more than anything in the world. He lived a sad life... :(

  • raiden is cool and in the ninja suitt to snake and raiden i got the game

  • this is cool i have it on my mp3 player saskue and raiden

  • raiden is gay?

  • he has a pregnant GF?? HOW CAN HE BE GAY??

  • for many reasons

  • Yes just like Snake can be because he's close to Otacon and has never had a GF right?

    Besides, effeminate does not equal gay. If that were the case everyone would have gone nuts and started calling all Final Fantasy characters or Rurouni Kenshins of SamuraiX gay.

  • YOU FOOL!!! THEY ALL ARE!!!

  • umm he's not bi, kazuyalord. mm kthxbye!

  • im a guy but yeah hes cool hes my favrotie actually

  • STFU girls dont play games and MGS is not about how hot the guys are,you give MGS fans a bad name you stupid whore.

  • STFU girls dont play games and MGS is not about how hot the guys are,you give MGS fans a bad name you stupid whore.

  • the guy is a wussy, but he do good, who i realy hate is rose, is like watchin' a fucking mexican telenovela, with all that romantic bullshit

  • nah raiden is cool but ur right about rose lol god that got annoying with all those love scens and stuff

  • i didnt care for rose its the whole "RAIDEN U KNOW WHAT THE F--- TOMORROW IS DONT U BEYATCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

  • dude thats sick Riden freackin rulz and hes a guy with a d*** but the creaters of mgs just didnt want to show it because it wuld be inapropret.

  • hey neo it's d-bags like you who give gaming a bad name so what if a girl plays metal gear gears? "l0l oh sn4p u th1nk a v1d game chracter is hot" if you are to say that please delete all the porn you have of EVA

  • original

  • yeqah raiden is awesome

  • How did you know Raiden has a vagina? Were you upset that he was a girl and not a guy you homo?

  • hey fuck you nerd

  • ok dude u seem to have not played all of the metal gears. The main person is snake. Raiden ruined MGS2SOL cause it didnt have a great plot or storyline with him. It is snake that is the greatest. He is a legend. Raiden is just a rookie.And you need to realize as raiden... he was a pick out of the government.Now im not a raiden hater at all...but Solid Snake is the main character and the one with an amazing story line. Yes raiden will be kickass in #4 But even if snake dies he will be rememberd.

  • well they both own id prefer raiden though

  • is it true when u get the substanced version of mgs4 you are allowed to play as Radien who is btw the best charecter of mgs ever.

  • ...I myself really liked Raiden. He did actually have a well thought out and deep storyline, and it was nice seeing the story, and Snake from a different angle other than Snake himself.

  • itd be cool to play as raiden if it was co-op but not in single player

  • Only about 25 percent of people truly hate him the other 75 are just lying about it. Theres not difference between him and snake gameplay wise. So I have to say get over it(not to you)

  • so true, man!! Finally a sensible MGS fan, kikook222! There aren't many out there.

  • Thanks.

  • sorry for 2 of the same comments my computer sucks

  • mgs2/mpo+ raiden is okay the mgs4 raiden is awesome

  • WHAT SONG IS PLAYING? pls. i wish they playd that in the game but it doesn't really flow with game play but it does with the trailer. who did this track? pls.

  • The Rasmus - No fear.

  • Oh w8! Its In the shadows...

  • Raiden is freaking sexy dont get me wrong so is Snake but Raiden take the cake i want to play the MGS4 big time just to see Raiden in it

  • i hope your a girl

  • I like Raiden.

    Although, I was kind of disappointed when I couldn't play as Snake for more than the Tanker chapter.

  • i know it kinda ruins the series well not really it just kinda does cause i cant find mgs1 and mgs3 is big boss but i still like the mgs series

  • How does enhancing the story line ruin a game. Does it really matter that they CHANGED a skin for a character and your not playing as snake. Well I know that everyone that hates him usually say it to be "cool" but truly hes is a fine character that even though you say sucks made MGS2 a very enjoyable game.

  • i know i dont have a problem with raiden i just don't like it that you cant play as snake for very much of the game

  • Oh I thought you were another Raiden hater. That does stink but thats why I mess around in the tanker before I actually play the story.

  • yeah raiden kicks ass especially on mgs4

  • He does but I hear rumor he isnt playable. I hope they arnt real.

  • yeah

  • get the other version.. Substance

  • i know it kinda ruins the series well not really it just kinda does cause i cant find mgs1 and mgs3 is big boss but i still like the mgs series

  • Raiden is really good character, just in MGS 2 there is a stupid situation - ervybody knows that Pliskin is Snake exept him! But Raiden is good character, i hope he will be playable in MGS4!

  • I disagree. I think Raiden is just as much of a little bitch in personality as his looks suggest.

  • Wow. This is so good, but it's raiden! I just can't stand him! Konami even hates him! that's why they made substance so you can play as snake!

  • um no i dont think so,but seriously you all played the game and liked it so stop complaining so what if the character looks like a little bitch

  • wow è fantastico...soprattutto raiden!!!

  • Raiden is the guy I'd introduce to my mom (after he gets a haircut). Snake is the "bad boy". I can imagine Snake becomes more of a role model in MGS4 when he's older.

  • snake is a role model at any age

  • haha I agree! He definately IS a hottie! I find hom hotter than Snake though. But I love Raiden's new hairstyle in MGS4!! HOT!1

  • I love the music but I love Raiden too.! He´s a hottie!

  • Nice vid, take a look at mine whenver u can

  • Everybody says i look like Raiden, now i realised that I really look like Raiden a lot!:D

  • Dude, if you really look like Raiden...can I get your number? LOL! Just kidding.

  • who sings this song??

  • The Rasmus

  • ahh

  • i dont mind raiden but snake is still the shit

  • I love the vid! The song goes well with Raiden!

  • Raiden Is The Best!

  • very good what did you use

  • That was pretty sweet. ^_^

  • aguante solid snake!!

  • the games is cool?

    get your grammer correct stupid ass

  • Well, it's spelled 'grammar', you know. Awesome video anyway.

  • I just completed the game today the end battle was quite hard. anyway this game kicks splinter cells ass!

  • hell yeh

  • ^^ yeh but Snake is da best^^

  • I LOVE THIS F'ING VIDEO GAME I'VE BEAT IT LIKE 10 TIMES!!! I used to be in love with Raiden because he is so hott. In this game you get to run around NAKED!!Ya you heard me, it's true play it yourself.

  • i think everyone here knows that lol

  • Brilliant but the transitions make it look tacky

  • Great Video has convinced me to start work on my own music video

  • which song are you using

    it was pretty cool

  • Rasmus - In the shadows

    ... and its worst thing in this video :/

  • excellent vid

  • Raiden is so awesome! I'm new to the MG game [Yes, I'm very late] and he was the first character to catch my interest. ^.^ Nice work on the video; this song is really nice.

  • if Raiden would of kept that mask on for like 5min more people wouldent think he was girlish i think it was the hair spin that he did that killed it for him Poor Raiden

  • In MGS 4 he looks much better then in mgs 2 !

    He was gay...

  • is that why he had a girlfriend and kid?
