BG1's "What a Shocker" Edge:

Instead of actually doing a comparison between, I'm just gonna put my vote out there and then - and the moment I looked at this blog and the combatants, I already knew who in my mind was going to win.

To me, I can definitely see Raiden (MG:R) taking this with at least some moderate difficulty at worst. As far as I can see, MK Raiden is merely all about that close-combat fighting (well duh! It's Mortal Kombat, a fighting martial arts game not a shooter) whereas Raiden, even without a firearm, has a greater range covered by his weapons. Yeah, MK Raiden may be more supernatural than the sci-fi MG:R Raiden but I think the latter shouldn't have any problem dealing with the demigod since (methinks) he has faced off against cyborgs and other... things that you might say are on par with being a demigod - furthermore, actually, MG:R Raiden has insane durability and strength that actually may put him on par with the demigod too. The only problem I can see going against MG:R Raiden is the electrical attacks that MK Raiden will dish out (given the cybernetic metallic body of MG:R Raiden) but after a long thought about this, I think that what may transpire will actually be somewhat reminiscent of that scene in the Avengers (with Thor and Iron Man if you need specificiation) where the electric attack might not be a kill-shot but have the opposite effect and be of beneficial effect (ditto for MG:R Raiden attacking MK Raiden with his electric attacks too) - especially considering that Jack the Ripper definitely has him going all berserk and increasing his superhuman attributes significantly.

So overall, MG:R Raiden takes this without too much of a struggle owing to his weapons and abilities covering almost all ranges of combat, a greater experience fighting superhuman opponents and... let's just say that MK Raiden's attacks might do more good than harm on MG:R Raiden.
