I got Raiden's Suit on Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood :D (Serial Code, SOCOM 23, Katana, the lot... but you can't use it.) You have to get Bronze Medal (min.) on everything on VR Training.
Greatest game ever made in my opinion.... The series the story the characters the graphics the emotional roller coster the player goes through... My god is just epic... It sucks that we're not gonna play snake anymore after this.... Or will we?
It can also mean incoming telegram. That's probably what they meant though really, a lot of people just misunderstood it. :) Raiden is a perfect analogy for an incoming telegram... I think.
I know it sounds crazy, but imagine a game that had a group of killers as the main characters all from other games in one. I have a small list of some badass dudes I thought of: Kazuya Mishima John Marston Snake Big Boss MasterCheif Altair Ezio James Bond Jack Bauer (erm these two don't really fit lol apart from maybe snake) That Guy from Killzone 2/3 Raiden Terminator various horror movie guys including Micheal Myers and Jason Sackboy (? eheh) Niko Bellic Carl Johnson etc
I still don't see why people keep on hating on Raiden. Yeah, Snake's more badass, but c'mon, Raiden is badass as well. Hell, I liked the character even before he turned cyborg.
I personally can't wait for the "predator-style" gameplay Rising will bring. :D
It's in Chapter 4, of Metal Gear Solid 4. Make it to the Canyon, and call Otacon a few times. Eventually, he'll start reminiscing about Snake's boss battle against Vulcan Raven in Metal Gear Solid 1. Otacon will ask Snake how he beat Raven, and Snake will give a brief description of how he won. Otacon will then proceed to compliment Snake, in his own way.
The same Codec conversation can occur in several areas after the Canyon, so be on the lookout for it.
Here is my two cents about Raiden. It was fun playing as him in MGS2 because of his character. He is like the gamer, being new to whats going on. Sure he may come off as a bit whiny, but he has my sympathies on all he has been through. Then, seeing him in MGS4, there was new-found respect for him. He had matured, but not for the best. He had more of a sense about the world, but still needed to learn. All in all, hes a total bad-ass and I await to learn more in Rising.
mgs rising is raidens game a new start in the francise theres so much we dnt no abou raiden like his past as child soldier becoming the ninja and wat happend after while peacewalker is mgs5 its not snakes stori its big bosses
There will be an MGS5, but Kojima probably won't be involved, and Snake won't be in it. But yeah, they will make an MGS5, because they will make so much money out of the series.
Most of the cut scenes, like the action ones were awesome, but some of the dialogue-filled ones were quite nauseating, because they feel the need to explain every little detail for dozens of minutes, and the dialogue is kinda loosely-written.
I personally expected MGS4 to be like MGS3, with less cutscenes in general, because when I want to see a movie, I go see one at the theaters. I wanted to play a game.

I haven't played MGS4 yet, but I've seen most of the cutscenes and...you're right. I love MGS but those cutscenes are ridiculous....I don't see why idiots keep neg repping you hah.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I don't know either. I mean, I hope they don't make an MGS movie. All that stupid dialogue on the screen would kill me to boredom in a matter of minutes.
And hey, I like the MGS series. MGS3 was awesome. But still I believe MGS4 was overhyped. Besides, I know that Konami gave some gaming magazines the right to do reviews earlier on only if they agreed not to write about how long the cutscenes are. That just proves how crooked the video game industry is.
if i was you, if ur a true fan of the MGS series, I wouldnt call the next game MGS5. Just call it a MGS spin off. I personally believe that Kojima was off his head when he thought of making MGS5 official. because MGS is all about the Snake family. Who is Raiden in the Snake family? No one. I'm calling Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker the fifth installment as it apparently shows the legendary missing link between MGS3 and MGS1 and it has Big Boss in it.
well i agree with everything you said about MGS5.. but your wrong about Raiden. its true MGS is primarily based on the Snake family but Raiden is incuded in that family too.. he was the (foster) son of Solidus which makes Raiden Snakes nefew. hes not related by blood by he is in the family...
Those first seconds really gets you to feel sorry for Raiden (especially when he is in the Nomad and says that he has no family). In MGS2 you wanted to sympathise with him but it was quite impossible as he was so... stereotypical
I don't think so. The sword Olga gave hm was lost after he fought the RAY's. He fought Solidus with one of his swords. But those were "standard" swords, while Raiden's sword in MGS4 is different looking. I don't even think it's a HF blade.
Yes,but he could re-found it. Because,after all, the sword sends electrical shocks if he wants to. About the look, it's the sword without the "hilt security".
I like Raiden in MGS2, he wasn't badass like Snake but his dorkiness and sense of justice (kinda) gave him a realistic character. Hey, it's better than throwing in a character that was just as advanced and experienced as Snake.
I like Raiden in MGS4 too c: Though I miss him being a douchebag, I guess it had to happen eventually when he turns kick ass.
Oh and btw, I believe his human parts is his head and spinal cord. When Snake said his heart was human, I think he meant it metaphorically.
I don't know if any character so vilified could ever be so awesomely redeemed in such as a way as Raiden was. He literally went from hated to beloved in less than a blink of an eye. Now I talk to MGS fans who used to hate Raiden and they act as if they're offended by the very thought of ever having disliked him at all. :P
I always loved Raiden, even as a pretty boy. Maybe because I started playing MGS at MGS 2 sons of liberty at like 11 And I didn't want to play as some old man. but now I'm 16, and I'm glad Raiden changed dramatically. ;]
Raiden, the only man who can be badass without arms.
