Really?
Not about the result- but it paining you.
Raiden was cool in MGS4, but a very shallow character. He was best in MGS2, before Kojima sold out. I hear he's better in Revengeance though (haven't played it yet)
Meanwhile Spider-Man is my favorite comic book character.

@nickzambuto: Really? their speed feats are similar, Raiden is probably stronger, Peter is more agile. They are both VERY durable, and now, Peter has the Iron Spider armour.
Raiden is a great deal faster than Spider-Man, far more acrobatic in combat, infinitely stronger and more durable, not to mention the skill gap and Raiden's ability to oneshot Peter with the H/F Blade.

What has Raiden done in Revengeance?
I haven't played it yet. But Raiden has displayed enhanced speed even before his upgrades. He was a child soldier bred and conditioned for nothing but war, his only memories being that of killing and maiming his enemies. He was personally trained by Solidus Snake, and kept constantly drugged and tortured. This led to Raiden's superhuman perception as an adult (similar to Cassandra Cain), allowing him great agility, and the reflexes to dodge a fully charged blast from Fortune's Rail Gun at close range (beyond bullet speed). He was capable of deflecting automatic gunfire from multiple sources with his blade, and even a high powered chaingun.
Upon receiving his cyborg augmentations, Raiden's speed greatly increased.
10:40 destroys three Gekko in less than one second
2:00 clears several hundred feet of space in an instant to save Snake
His upgrades in Revengeance doubled his power, but unfortunately I haven't seen much of that. I've seen the first chapter of Revengeance on YouTube, but Raiden was still using the white suit during that. Regardless, he was capable of outrunning a speeding train, sprinting down the side of a tower while dodging missiles, and making a walkway out of a barrage of missiles.
20:15 - 21:25
Raiden has supersonic speed, I don't think Spider-Man could hopscotch across missiles going at mach speeds or blitz a group of Gekko with precision hits to take each down in less than a second.
Like I said, Raiden is cool, but overwhelmingly shallow compared to his MGS2 depiction. I'd love to say Spider-Man wins, so go ahead, prove me wrong. Please, you'll be doing me a favor.
