Have I not explained, in about 5-6 different post, that MGS has no power scaling? That MGS characters that can't bullet time beat those that do bullet time?
Big Boss = defeated Null and Gene, even though on 2 occasions he was held up at gun point by 4 soldiers and steamrolled by Cunningham.
Raiden = Defeated Solidus, even though Vamp who can't bullet time blitzed him and Ocelot held him at gun point and was about to kill him before Olga saved him
But you probably don't recall any of this, because you haven't played he games and aren't familiar with the lore or the context. End of story.
Solidus's super speed failed to beat Raiden in the same sense that Gene's super speed failed to beat Big Boss, the guy who got railed by 4 soldiers.
Seriously am I going to have to re iterate this in my next post? Or will this perhaps indent this into that thick skull of yours?

No projectile = No railgun. Being a prototype means nothing as its of the railgun you proved has a projectile. A weapon that discharges plasma is not a railgun, which this is. A taser is not a prototype for a gun. The final result is based on the prototype, modified but the same base and usage. It has a projectile. Just because you didn't see a hypersonic projectile in motion on ps2 graphics doesnt mean its not there. Stop reaching.
No Projectile = No railgun, agreed 100% In fact no projectile = no gun Period.
Too bad I just listed 4 other examples of rail guns that don't shoot solid projectiles. A weapon that discharges plasma is not a rail gun, except for Fortune's rail gun, except for the DiamondBack in Starcraft, except for the Railgun in Razetwo, except for the Mag Rail in Deus Ex and except for the Mag Charger in Timesplitters. I'm glad your finally agreeing and are posting with even a slight bit of logic. You're making progress

1. No projectile = No railgun. Deus Ex states it an EMP shot. Razetwo states it fires a particle beam Timesplitters wiki says it uses a metal slug bolt and an electo-magnetic pulse. So congratulations for posting railguns where they're stated to be used as energy weapons.
Deus Ex states it's an EMP, shot from a rail gun. Oh and the EMP is a secondry function of the gun, the primary shot is a high density energy beam. Rail gun that doesn't shoot a solid magnetic, surprise surprise
What's the next one? The Mag Charger from Timesplitters. This is exactly what it states
The Mag-Charger is a railgun,
This weapon fires an electro-magnetic pulse generated
Says it's a rail gun, says it fires an electro magnetic pulse..it doesn't fire a slug, do you know how I know this? Because unlike you I've played the game, the EMP shuts down robots and electric systems like an EMP is suppose to...going to keep arguing this? No? Lets move on
Razetwo,
The Railgun is a black gun with red lines on the whole gun, which looks remarkably like the .50 Caliber Sniper and is battery powered.
The Railgun fires a red beam of energy that
So including the Diamond Back, that's FOUR examples of rail guns that DON'T shoot solid projectiles. But chances are your going to regurgitate the same nonsense and self denial of a rail gun needing a solid projectile. I honestly hope you do, because I love watching people delude themselves, especially people who CAN'T READ.

Oh wait, third round of applause for not only using a bullet caught in a slow-motion cutscene but to also only stick to one game when I said tons as the point was about how games don't usually show fast projectile speed especially in this generation of games. Way to miss the obvious point..
You haven't had a valid point for about a week now.
You didn't specify. This is what you stated exactly
"You know what else we don't see in tons of games? Bullets in motion."
Your statement word for word. You didn't specify slow motion. And even if you did. And even so, I showed 2 instances of Fortune's rail gun shot in SLO MO. Neither time did we see a metallic shell flying out of her gun.
If there was a metallic shell flying out of Fortune's gun, where was it? You can't blame it on the PS2's capabilities, and you can't blame it on artistic flair or whatever other excuse you'll pull from your ass.

2. *Don't. Yeah cutscene, which is in a 'game'. Facts state its a 10 MJ railgun, and you using minor points in the face of stated facts is fruitless.
A CUTSCENE isn't gameplay. If we go by your idiot logic, then Cutscenes and gameplay wouldn't count, guess what? Cut scenes and gameplay make up THE ENTIRE GAME.
In gameplay we see characters get shot, stabbed, injured, then wait for a few seconds and have their health returned.
In cut scenes if someone gets shot, they usually die. Because cut scenes are a visual representations of the GAMES LORE.
So in this cut scene we see that Fortune's projectile was stopped dead in it's tracks by a metallic crate...making it canon. End of story

3. "In that same fight Raiden was using metal and wooden crates as cover against her rail gun." AKA the gameplay fight.
You know, the irony is staggering here. Do you know why?
Think for a second, where does it state that Fortune's rail gun had 10 Megajoules?
In a codec conversation, when Colonel Cambell calls you and tells you it packs 10 Megajoules.
Now...in that same boss fight..with the same codec..the very same character Cambell..tells you to take cover until the elevator comes down...
So...using the same method, standard and character, you're told to hide behind those metal and wooden crates to hide from that supposed 10 MJ weapon that should punch straight through the cover...
Ok? Moving on

. Facts > opinions.
Oh you misunderstood, I still think the Joules are relevant, it's just not important and never was, because regardless of what you believe on screen evidence takes precedence over any caluclation you can think of.
On screen evidence = Without cinematic time, took 1 second to traverse 50-100 feet and was stopped by a crate.
No gameplay, pure canon lore. Like I've said several times now, the actual reward I earn by playing the game is to know the context, where the consequence of not playing the game but still posting about it which is what you've done, is to look like a complete idiot, a lesson you found out the hard way.

the fact that the bullet was in slow-motion and the fact that a railgun fires projectiles much faster than a bullet? Or did you forget this fact?
Fortune's rail gun shot was in slo motion also, on 2 occasions, where cans were shown but again, not playing the game you wouldn't know this.

Second round of applause for bringing up other games weapons and claiming this will work in the exact same way, despite MGS canonly using RL railguns no expression
I'm assuming that your excuse here is that MGS has a more realistic approach to their weaponry than other games do. Unfortunately, since you have no actually played any of the MGS games, you wouldn't be aware of the numerous scientific, mathetmatical and historical blunders that Kojima and his team make when writing the scripts for these titles, that don't actually match up with their supposed RL Counterparts
Here are the facts.
There is no real life portable man made rail gun, so no comparison can be made. Fortun's rail gun is a work of fiction just like the other 4 weapons that were listed, and all use the same principle of a rail gun which is to let electromagnetism accelerate their projectile.

1. Citing other fictional weapons.
1. You stated that a rail gun needs a solid projectile. I proved you wrong by quoting 4 weapons that do not use solid projectiles. So you're wrong. With that, we know that Fortune' rail gun doesn't need a solid projectile to be considered a rail gun. There is no man made rail gun in real life for comparison.
Fictional rail gun, Check
Several fictional rail guns that don't use solid projectiles, check
Absence of a solid projectile, no visual, no mention of one, check
2. Yes, and with modifications the new MGS4 rail gun has unknown spec. The burden of proof is on you.
3. Speed can be calculated, unfortunately with the first rail gun you lack a solid projectile and the second rail gun you lack the Megajoules. Oh well
4. See 3
5. I don't have to pretend, It does mean something because when something is modified new specs are needed.
Make your next post a good one, you're slipping
