@Inanimate which Raiden, the one from Metal Gear Solid 2 or the bad ass cyborg from Metal Gear Solid 4? As for MGS2 no he looks way more bad ass than that. MGS2 Raiden is just gay, what a pussy.

The sad part is many fans of Metal Gear where piss about that character replacing Snake. Now if it's the one from MGS4, that's a kick ass cyborg Ninja. What is it with Japan and turning man looking like females?
Raiden was not the only character Japanese developers did. There are many more all over Japanese media. But still I find it very funny. Well where getting Metal Gear Rising staring Raiden with the MGS4 Cyborg Ninja look.

Not the fruity look from MGS2....man what where they thinking.
