From GamesReviews:
"What's a little Metal Gear hype without a few wild (and a few less wild) fan theories? We've all had over a week to watch and soak in the extended version of the first "proper" Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain trailer, shown at the beginning of last week's Microsoft conference, and I'm sure we've all got our own ideas about what's happening and how it all fits into the series as a whole.
"Perhaps we're not thinking about it as deeply as some of these people though, who predict clones of Master Miller, a ton of Snakes and the triumphant return of David Hayter..."
Whether it's showcasing damage realistically or simulating fractures and conditions, these games are worth checking out.
The Metal Gear series has sold 60.2 million copies, as of September 2023.
...and yet, they couldn't give more respect and effort into the collection.
What a terrible company.
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is another rollercoaster of a game in the Metal Gear Solid series. Here's what to expect and why you need to experience it.
Amazing how bad this game looks already. We keep acting like this gen doesn't feel like an update but I think we're starting to see it.
The game started really strong in that hospital, but after a couple of hours I wondered if it was even an mgs game I was playing.
The Miller Clone thing sounds far-fetched...but then again, I always wondered why Liquid looks like Miller, and why his hair is naturally blonde.
Plus, without a doubt, Liquid is FAR more intelligent than his father or brother. He single-handedly revived the patriot system and ran it himself, controlling the world for a brief moment. That is something that Miller would have done (if he were evil). He has Big Boss's facial features, and battle prowess; but also looks a bit like Miller too, and definitely as an equivalent intelligence and charisma (when getting soldiers to join his "cause").
Plus Liquid was able to fool Cambell and Solid into believing that he was Liquid.
Just a theory, so don't crucify me, but: Is it possible that Liquid (if he is Eli in the trailer) is a genetic fusion of Big Boss and Miller. Just think about the possibilites before you shoot it down.
Every single MGS prequel end up reveal so much more about the lies that Solid Snake had been told about Big Boss and his own origins. Maybe there is more to reasoning behind why they cloned Big Boss.
Although Big Boss is the soldier, Miller was the brains. Combining them both would result in a person who is battle efficient and a natural born commanding officer(miller). This genetic fusion would create the kind of mindset that could run MSF, Outer Heaven, and eventually FoxHound--all in one person. Those are all qualities that Liquid possesses, and things he's accomplished alone. Yet it took BOTH Miller and Big Boss to accomplish what Liquid has done alone.
Just a theory.
David Hayter is definitely trolling the fans. He'll be in the game.
My theory is that the afghanistan Snake is actually Mei Ling's time-traveling clone wearing a mask
please, let the story be on par with Metal Gear Solid. something credible that compliments the player's intelligence and provokes his thinking.
part of MGS's superior success simply was its authentic story, it stimulates the doubt that such conspiracy and technology could exist.
no cheap out-of-this-world conspiracy theories, no sexual vulgarity, no dumb computer AIs and no tired relationships.. Metal Gear Solid was a masterpiece on every single level.
I hope MGSV deliver a unique experience.
My head is going to explode
