Pfft, Vamp has no showings of strength to his name at all, besides lifting Johnson one handed, other than that, I don't see a single example of it. He's skillful, and fast enough to keep up with Cyber Raiden, but he's not matching him in power.
He doesn't throw metal gears around, he throws Gekko's, hardly the same thing as REX and RAY.
Vamp could rip Nemesis in half like he was made of tissue paper.
His showings against Raiden make that very perfectly clear.
Snake reacts to hypersonic railgun bullets after they are fired and beats superhumans like Gray Fox and Vamp, both being far faster and stronger than Nemesis, in hand to hand.
Nemesis has no chance at all.
So Jill, a inferior warrior compared to Snake, managed to shoulder tackles him off a bridge and later kill Nemesis, but Snake (genetic supersolider breed for war) cant? Bullcrap.
To the railgun debate, from the MGS database:
A rail gun is a device which employs electromagnetic induction rather than expanding gas or mechanical action to accelerate projectiles. Used by Fortune in the manhattan incident, Crying Wolf, of the Beauty and the Beast Unit, used a man-portable rail gun against Solid Snake on Shadow Moses Island. The technology was provided to Liquid Ocelot by Vamp, following Fortune's death, and placed in Wolf's hands. However, Snake was able to defeat Wolf and he ended up procuring the weapon himself. While compact, the rail gun packed as much firepower as a tank turret. It had the most penetrative power of any weapon in Snake's arsenal and dealt extremely high damage to targets. Snake later used it to hold off an entire division of Suicide Gekko.
The tech in the MGS universe is also much more advance compared to the RE verse, not to mention the creatures are only dangerous because the limited equipment from the protagonists
