You can tell the clone aging has already kicked in... I mean, look at the number it did on Snake's hand eye co-ordination. It took five consecutive attempts to hold Otacon's hand.
someone recently pointed out to me that this is a representation of the konami code--holy shit, he was actually right. over a decade later and I'm still finding out about easter eggs in this game.
@keyblademasterlink12 Hey. Raiden is epic. He may be a rookie in MGS2, but he saves lives in MGS4, including Snake's. I think Raiden is really cool. -_-
@TheIffy316 so lucky :D, we've just passed the scene where E.E (his sister) dies :) and learned that it was his fault she was in the same business as him in the first place :P
Snake and Otacon the first and only bromance that everyone will remember. can't wait until Nov.8 when we can relive that handshake in 3-D on the 360 and PS3 :)
Man I don't get all the shit MGS2 gets, this was my favorite moment in Metal Gear. Snake and Otacon, a hardened grizzled badass and a soft, geeky nerd who have been working together for years now, with pretty much only each other as friends. Fucking great.
The scene that comes after this...with the little sparrow saying: "Hal..Hal...I miss you...i miss you" and Otacon walking in a slow mo...when he breaks. It's touching shit.
@SONSofVENDETTA Even if you wear face camo he still dies in the end, fixing accelerated aging = Snake being in his 40's , Big Boss was in his late 30's during Operation Snake eater. That would be a badass looking snake!
@WhiteIWolf he is supposed to die young thats how the patriots made him so other people wouldn't be able to steal his genes and make superior soldiers that's why he also can't have kids
@SONSofVENDETTA True but at the end of mgs4 the fox die that drebin injected into Snake killed off the older fox die making him basically stable he wont have accelerated aging anymore but he will still die because even if his body is stable they shouldve done it earlier because his body is already old and worn out so in the end of the day they just gave him a little more time without the accelerated aging but his body is already fucked up. And yeah Solidus was the perfect clone of Big Boss.
@WhiteIWolf - FoxDie didn't accelerate Snake's aging, FoxDie made heart's cells die and heart attacks as the result. Snake's accelerated aging was made by pure genetic engineering - he had it written in his genetic code before he was even born.
@WhiteIWolf - actually, Big Boss was in his late 20's when he did Operation Snake Eater. He was born in 1935 - making him 29 years old as of 1964 - metalgear-wikia-com/wiki/Big_Boss
@skytop082 - Liquid was a liar. Everything he said was meant to discourage Snake and lower his morale. Also, Liquid doesn't have to know everything about Big Boss, even if he is his "son". At least that's how I interpret it. ^^
I understand Kojima's vision of playing the game as another character... but I still want to play this story as Snake. He seemed to have a way more interesting story to tell than Raiden's.
@RoyFan33 Gay? Sure... They're gay because of? - Otacon has fallen in love with Sniper Wolf and banged Naomi? Snake stares at Meryls ass and Naomis skirt? Oh and Snake was enjoying his Playboy copy, too. I have nothing against term objective opinions. But... To the hell with these yaoi Fangirls/boys!
@MaestroHank fuck yea I salute to you man. Outer Heaven has no place for the irrational fanatic. they can fantasize about raidkov and volgin all they want
@MaestroHank Eh. If people want to imagine them as gay, then let them (though I'd argue they're at least bisexual...because like you mentioned they're obviously into girls). It wouldn't make them any less awesome as characters imo.
Ugh. Too many ass-holes hating on Raiden. Seriously, the man is engaged and has a child. He's the straightest person in this game. Stop being so butt-hurt because you don't get to be as snake in MGS2.
@Aminovitch92i The irony of this statement is that for most of the fandom, Raiden is regarded as one of the straighter ones (made fun of a lot, but looking at canon, he seems 100% straight) whereas Snake and Otacon are considered the gayest thing to happen in a videogame ever. Except for maybe Ocelot.
What I find more interesting is how that epic handshake came to be. Who's idea was it?
