Raiden joins PSASBR roster

Fey Metal Gear Solid ninja Raiden is joining the cast of PlayStation All-Stars: Battle Royale.

Raiden appears as he does in Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance and is as quick as you probably assume. He's all about quick combos, with different inputs having different outcomes depending on the situation.

You can take a look at a nice 8-minute overview of the character and his play style if that tickles your fancy. Fun fact: Rising Raiden's All-Stars appearance will be several months before his solo debut.

This makes sense as an addition to the roster and as someone people would actually be interested in playing as.

I was all excited for a second, because I thought it meant Raiden as in the military plane.

Then I realized which Raiden it really meant, and I stopped being excited.

I hear he transforms into the Raiden airplane as a special attack activated by holding both triggers at the same time while hitting reset on your gaming console.

He also whines incessantly if you press any button.

And initiates cut-scenes every 3 steps he walks.

And in one of his special costumes, he's fully naked.

I've also heard any time you pick a character, it automatically switches to Raiden for the rest of the game.

Ah ha ha hah ah ha! Aaaah good one, Joe. Also, Dagoss is spot on about the cutscenes enough that I fear it might come true.

Xbox AllStars Battle Royale will have Master Chief, some Gears of War characters, and Otacon.

All of Otacon's special moves are crying.

Otacon has an attack that can kill in just one hit. It only works on women.

I heard spaceshit noises.

Raiden can only be defeated by a convoluted plot twist.
