Please tell me you are thinking the same thing: Metal Gear Online: Raiden Gameplay

I am one of many people that didn't appreciate Raiden in Metal Gear Solid 2.

I wouldn't say I hated him. But I sure as hell didn't like having my Snake pulled...hold on...that sounded wrong. What I mean is I didn't like starting the game as Snake, then having him "die" so I'd have to play as RAIDEN:

Actually, not that Raiden. This Raiden:

Oh yeah, that's the stuff. Point is things didn't fair well, for my blonde friend here, from the start. Its nothing personal. Honestly I think his story, although muddled in a heavily convoluted story, was similar to Snake's. They both were being fed lies for breakfast, lunch, and dinner...but not brunch. No, brunch was cantaloupe (even though honeydew destroys cantaloupe). But Raiden had the short end of the stick, being pushed around by EVERYONE, including Pliskin (why'd it have to be Snakes?)

So you get to run around naked as penis...I mean, Raiden. Sure its fun, and I catch myself recreating that scene all the time but the next game had him as a *clears throat* F#CKING CYBORG NINJA! You inner child is pretty excited right now huh? How many times did you sneak up on your sister's teddy bear and pretend to extend your robotic arm in preparation for its inevitable assassination?

Admit that you want to kill this...

Metal Gear Solid 4, the one with a robot Ninja named Raiden, did NOT let you play as the robot ninja named Raiden? Why? Because you don't obey the "dry clean only" tags on your clothes and robots hate that! But MGS4 loves you. It does. That's why so much fan service was poured (I mean, CRAMMED) in to it. But it truly, truly loves you. And so, they decided to make Raiden playable on Metal Gear Online. And here are your results:

Damn it Raiden. Damn it...
