GE writes" "From the very beginning, Snake held a big place in our hearts as we made our way through Shadow Moses, and uncovering it’s many mysteries and beating the many strange bosses. He was the hero we knew and loved, so why would anyone want to play as another character? I remember being a child and playing games with my brother, telling him that “I’ll be Snake” as I army crawled around the room as if on a secret stealth mission. Snake was the hero and seemingly made Metal Gear Solid all about good old Snake.
Then, we came to Metal Gear Solid 2, and we began the game as our beloved and much updated Snake, making our way through the boat to uncover and expose the new Metal Gear. It’s an intense mission and as it ends, you find yourself wanting more, and that’s when Raiden comes in.
Who is this blonde haired kid and why am I not playing as Snake?"
These groundbreaking video games changed gaming forever and drew in scores of fans in the process.
From first-person espionage thrillers to the original installments of beloved franchises, check out the greatest retro video games we recommend for anyone.
I’d have taken a few of those out. Prefer Sonic over Sonic 2. Outrun should be in there. Maybe even Pong as millions of people had fun with that even if it was repetitive. Final Fight pipped any Streets of Rage game, although Streets of Rage had the better soundtrack. Too many to list l guess. To me, retro gaming is the 1980s, maybe going into early 1990s.
Get a glimpse at how the remake of Metal Gear Solid 3 will be updated through the use of Unreal Engine 5.
It looks wonderful visually. Frame rate is very inconsistent though, and definitely running sub-30's at times. I get that this is an alpha version. I just hope we can hit a locked 60 on the final release. Also, I kind of wish they'd expanded the areas a bit. Might feel a bit odd going through these sections that are still clearly going to be on a PS2 scale in size.
lol @ this bait title
I like Raiden , but better than Snake ? nahhhhh. But it is an opinion and I respect that .
How was Raiden better than Snake? Did he have more abilities or a different move set in Sons of Liberty? If you liked him, good, I liked him as an operative.
What kills the entire idea of liking Raiden as a playable character is what he became. As a cyborg its hard to say hes a good soldier since hes...a cyborg...
Snake..Snake is...Snake...Battle hardened from his past, and the skill set (Though exaggerated) can not be compared.
Raiden in my opinion is like...the cool side mission guy you liked playing with in VR Missions (Ninja).
I remember when MGS2 came out I was so disappointed in how much I had to play as Raiden. Kind of ruined the game a little. It is my least favorite MGS game.
