I didn't even notice that they rendered his eyes behind his mask. Kid has an icy glare.

That hair lighting tho.

It's so fuckin good
 
Wait, I know its said that Volgin survived MGS3, but I thought that was just a reanimated corpse of Volgin that Mantis was using.
 
Such a lust for revenge.

So funny how Skull Face just assumes he will always be the most vengeful person in any given three mile radius.

Equally ridiculous that Soviet scientists managed to figure out the radius of mental influence in fairly certain terrestrial units. Did they have two people of unequal vengefulness stand on opposite ends of a field and walk slowly toward Mantis?
 
I didn't rescue Kojima in GZ, but I did rescue him in TPP in the same spot as Kaz. Do you get that mission in TPP if you saved him in GZ?
 
As stupid and terrible as I think everything related to this game's plot and its big twist is, I will say that the song playing in the beginning being a cover and not the original version was a pretty clever hint.

That was the real Big Boss.

The real Big Boss doesn't have a shrapnel horn. Mantis has a shrapnel horn when the whale shows up. The whale is all Venom baby.

not to mention the song talks about a doppleganger.
 
That mantis stuff is cool. I would say I can't wait for the community to take apart this plot but I fear there isn't too much to take apart compared to the others...

Ya...I rescued him in GZ and had him in my staff for TPP. Then later I got the side op to rescue him again in TPP.

I didn't bother to check if I had 2 Kojima's though.

The original had come out recent to Ground Zeroes, and the cover was recent relative to The Phantom Pain. So I think there's supposed to be a "I recognize this" moment for Venom when it is really a cover made 12 years later.

I like both this cover and the Nirvana version more than the original.
 
Didn't realize the song was a cover, I like it much better than the original.

Also Diamond Dogs is the name of another Bowie album isn't it?

Pretty interesting stuff.

"The Man Who Sold The World"

We passed upon the stair, we spoke of was and when
Although I wasn't there, he said I was his friend
Which came as some surprise I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone, a long long time ago

Oh no, not me
I never lost control
You're face to face
With The Man Who Sold The World

I laughed and shook his hand, and made my way back home
I searched for form and land, for years and years I roamed

I gazed a gazely stare at all the millions here
We must have died alone, a long long time ago

Who knows? not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the Man who Sold the World

and Diamond Dogs

"Diamond Dogs"

As they pulled you out of the oxygen tent
You asked for the latest party

With your silicone hump and your ten inch stump
Dressed like a priest you was
Todd Browning's freak you was

Crawling down the alley on your hands and knee
I'm sure you're not protected, for it's plain to see
The Diamond Dogs are poachers and they hide behind trees
Hunt you to the ground they will,
mannequins with kill appeal

[CHORUS]
(Will they come?) I'll keep a friend serene
(Will they come?) Oh baby, come unto me
(Will they come?)
Well, she's come, been and gone.

Come out of the garden, baby
You'll catch your death in the fog
Young girl, they call them the Diamond Dogs

The Halloween Jack is a real cool cat
And he lives on top of Manhattan Chase

The elevator's broke, so he slides down a rope
Onto the street below, oh Tarzie, go man go

Meet his little hussy with his ghost town approach
Her face is sans feature, but she wears a Dali brooch
Sweetly reminiscent, something mother used to bake

Wrecked up and paralyzed, Diamond Dogs are sableized

[CHORUS]

In the year of the scavenger, the season of the bitch
Sashay on the boardwalk, scurry to the Ditch
Just another future song, lonely little kitsch
(There's gonna be sorrow) try and wake up tomorrow

[CHORUS]

Ooh, call them the Diamond Dogs [x2]
Bow-wow, woof woof, bow-wow, wow
Call them the Diamond Dogs [ad lib]

Keep cool - Diamond Dogs rule, OK
Beware of the Diamond Dogs [repeat]
 
I just finished mission 46. I knew something was up with Ishmael since it was obvious Kiefer was voicing him but I thought it was Solidus, since he's a perfect clone and had aged faster than Solid Snake.
 
This has probably been answered before, but Ishmael is Big Boss, right? Why does he have two seemingly normal eyes in the hospital scenes?
 
SO WHAT'S EVERYONES FAVOURITE CODETALKER TAPE? I like the one where he says "birds".



God, no wonder they swapped out Hayter.

Yep, don't want any of that MGSV story stink on Hayter. Plus he just wouldn't be a good fit. Hayter is no phony. He's the real deal. Genuine article. Boss in the booth.

Give this knock off character to some B lister like Sutherland who gave a fitting phony performance.

Just released image of Kiefer during his MGSV recordings.

Glass eye, perhaps? But it's weird, since he apparently can aim using it...

The other problem is... Why doesn't Ishamel have any facial hair, but that same day when he rides off into the sunset on a bike he has a full beard?

Fucking Kojima...

lol, magnificent. XD
 
Skull Face should have abandoned the Mantis plan as soon as he lost control to venom at the hospital tbh

when the dude you're hunting takes control of one of your most powerful weapons and uses it against you maybe it's time to let that one go

Skull Face wasn't using him at that point.

I don't know if he was already in league with skull face. I think the plane crash wasn't too long before this. They could've shown a scene where Skull Face sort of recruits him.
