Yes, I know it's just going to be on the PS3, but I'm a big fan of MGS (although also a purist so no Ghost Babel or Acid for me thanks much).

Anyway, I saw this new trailer for MGS4 where apparently Snake's wised up and gone from using cardboard boxes to oil drums, which even have use as armor and you can bowl over enemies by rolling in it. One shot near the end of this new trailer has Snake staying still and using his optic camo to look like a stone statue (he's posed on a dais with two other statues), when the guards leave the area he turns off the camo and the camera pans up, to reveal a 30's-something Snake taking a drag off a cig with a pidgeon dropping a crap on his cheek a few moments later.

I'm thinking this means one of two things:

1.) Snake finds some item that temporarily restores the cels damaged from accelerated aging (Although many people smoke cigs, I can only imagine one Son of Big Boss that smokes).
2.) It's a fourth snake (Solid, Liquid, Solidus...Plasma???)

I know about Solid and Liquid snake, but who the hell is Solidus snake?

(11:15:30 PM) Sock: Let's speculate about the new guy.
(11:16:03 PM) Pryopizm: it's Snake
(11:16:18 PM) Sock: And the old Snake we're seeing running around?
(11:23:54 PM) Pryopizm: same
(11:24:12 PM) Sock: ok
(11:24:13 PM) Sock: What?
(11:24:17 PM) Sock: Explain your theory.
(11:29:41 PM) Pryopizm: Snake gets old
(11:29:42 PM) Pryopizm: fast
(11:29:53 PM) Pryopizm: probably some genetic disease or some stupid thing
(11:29:57 PM) Sock: Oh
(11:30:21 PM) Sock: So you're saying that Snake in the start of the trailer is the same Snake, but he gets something that makes him age very rapidly over a short period of time?
(11:31:41 PM) Pryopizm: well
(11:31:47 PM) Pryopizm: he could age quickly
(11:31:52 PM) Pryopizm: then he gets younger
(11:32:01 PM) Pryopizm: or vice versa
(11:32:09 PM) Pryopizm: or start of young then age, then end young
(11:32:17 PM) Sock: No
(11:32:22 PM) Sock: I don't see that happening
(11:32:25 PM) Sock: That's too whacky.
(11:32:31 PM) Pryopizm: it's Kojima
(11:32:37 PM) Pryopizm: he made bee-grenades


There never was an image here, what the fuck are you talking about?

Oh, yeah, bee grenades. The perfect weapon against bear tanks.

After a second viewing online ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rT34eEcEICI ), I think there's a third option: just another skin for his optic camo.

I don't suppose anyone figured it was just a prelude thing or something, did they?

kind of like how you play as snake in MGS2, and then get stuck with raiden? you probably start out as young snake and then flash forward to busted ass old snake for the rest of the game.

Raiden : Behold! I am the god of Thunder!!!

Fatman : Can you hear it? Hear this rhythm? This is the rhythm of time --
and life! Don't you love the sound. I used to hang around
department store clock count....

(ZAAAAAAPPPPPP!!!!!)

Raiden : Foolish mortal.

It would make the game a lot easier.... That's for sure.

Or a lot harder if you played as this Raiden:

Aye, but you'd be a Highlander and have the fury of Queen backing you up.
