The ICO
of Raiden has created some controversy in the cryptocurrency community.
The scale
of Raiden's success is outside of the developers» control as it depends on Ethereum's popularity and level of utilization.
Another advantage
of Raiden is its ability to work with any tokens that match Ethereum standards.
According to the creator
of Raiden Heiko Hees, the system's configuration is simpler than that of Lightning Network because «in Bitcoin the scripting language is rather limited.»
On Github, developer Lefteris Karapetsas wrote yesterday that the version being released is aimed at sussing out any bugs in the code, adding that a limit has been placed on the maximum amount
of Raiden tokens (RDN) that can be deposited for making payments.
We are currently designing and researching a hybrid lightning network based on the best parts
of both Raiden and lightning technology.
Im not 100 % convinced that RDN is going to track all the gains
of the Raiden Network.
To understand the value
of Raiden you need to know a little about Ethereum.
Moreover, Ethereum is also working on development
of the Raiden network which is an off chain scaling solution not that much more different from the lightning network.
This design initially gained traction with the release of the bitcoin Lightning Network white paper in 2015, and the authors
of the Raiden Network later ported the idea over to ethereum.
Further, a fully interactive visualization
of the Raiden test network is available here.
According to Heiko Hees, CEO of Brainbot Technologies and creator
of Raiden, Ethereum is better suited to Lightning - like payment channels than Bitcoin.
A streamlined version
of the Raiden payments channel network has been launched on the main ethereum blockchain.
This is the documentation for the 0.3.0 version
of the Raiden Network.
A small team
of Raiden's «Chosen Warriors» survives the attack: Mortal Kombat champion Liu Kang and his ally Kung Lao, Special Forces agents Sonya Blade and Jax, the shaman Nightwolf, the riot cop Stryker, the nomadic Kabal, and former Lin Kuei warrior Sub-Zero, who has gone rogue from his clan.
Then, after Snake seemingly dies, the game drops you into the tight leather boots
of Raiden, a man who can do all of the same things as Snake but with less stoic confidence and more whiny confusion.
With the popularity of the Metal Gear Solid franchise (as well as Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance) it would only be smart to release an HD remake of the first adventure
of Raiden, recreating this critically acclaimed stealth and tactical experience.
After the somewhat diminishing return
of Raiden III, the revival of the classic series would get another shot with Raiden IV.

But, this version
of Raiden isn't the one we remember from MGS 2.
The PC version, which was developed and published by the same folks who gave us the great PC version
of Raiden II, has some strange graphical differences, like the use of ugly meshes for shadows and transparencies instead of the traditional alpha blending; otherwise, it's a respectable port.
This fight uses a weapon that Solid Snake would never use — a sword, just a thematic symbol
of Raiden stepping out from the shadow of the legendary hero and entering a life of his own.
During the mission, many
of Raiden's interactions with Snake are the opposite of a legendary soldier.
This is a large portion
of Raiden's journey.

of Raiden's weapon, with the left stick controlling the camera and the right stick controlling the exact angle of your attack — simply swipe the stick in whatever direction you want and Raiden will follow the motion on - screen, neatly slicing through the enemy.
Different enemies don't require you to switch up your tactics very much or utilise the entirely
of Raiden's moveset — you simply batter the crap out of them and then slice them up.
The fact that you could view him from the outside as this legendary hero actually helped you settle into the role
