I think Rising is decent in its portrayal of life after S.O.P. but they made too many compromises. The PMC Maverick isn't interesting in the slightest, and the spread of cyborgs is a concept forced into the game because of censorship (cutting up fleshy people is too violent apparently). The story wasn't horrible, but was far from amazing. In the end, the Winds Of Destruction remains my favorite part of that game. Solid will always be superior to Rising, the trick is enjoying both.
