Who is cooler snake or raiden

In MGS 1 through 3, Solid Snake: He is THE legendary super soldier with a vendetta against all METAL GEAR. While Raiden is just some rookie that has a gender problem and girlfriend issues.

But... in MGS4 Raiden turn out to be the more bad-ass of the two. Though Snake is still cool with the Octo-camo and the huge list of weaponry he still looks all wrinkly and old. Not to mention in a few months he could kick the bucket. Raiden shows up in South America in his Cyborg Ninja outfit of awesomeness and beats the hell out of a bunch of Unmanned Bipedal Tanks. But on the other hand he still has girlfriend issues and got is @$$ kicked by Vamp.

In my mind Snake is still the best, but Raiden is soon to take his place.
