[edit] 'Solid Snake' Spoken Wikipedia
Can someone either delete the one on this page or upload a better one? It sounds rediculous and is hardly discernible through the thick accent of whoever is speaking.
[edit] MGS4 Pic
some one is posting naked pictures of nasty things on this site
In the most recent trailer I've seen, Snake doesn't look old. In fact, he only looks slightly older than he did in MGS2. Can someone find a pic of this? If I find the trailer, I'll post it and then edit the article. DeathGodDragon EDGE 23:28, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
As far as we know, Old Snake is Solid Snake

Ok, but I'm just sayin' I saw a trailer with Snake using his camouflage suit to blend in. Then, the enemy walk past a statue looking for Snake. When they leave, part of the statue moves, revealing a guy using a camouflage suit (in the exact same color scheme as Snake's suit). He removes his mask, and it's not Old Snake, but a younger looking man. DeathGodDragon EDGE 00:45, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
The guy you see using the camo is probably Raiden, who is said to also be in MGS4. Old Snake is Solid Snake.
He is right, at the end of the trailer the "young" Solid Snake is shown wearing the Octocamo. If not him a man with the same face as MGS2 Solid Snake and smoking a cigarrette, the only difference is that he doesn't wear the Bandana. Black Dollar 12 February 2007
[edit] Vandalism
I just saw this page with several pictures from the precum article. Locking the page may be a wise decision. 64.91.86.166 08:37, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
- Not sure what you're seeing, but this page hasn't been edited in over 24 hours. — TKD::Talk 10:07, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
I believe he's talking about the picture of a penis in the other appearences section. [not signing out of safety] —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.209.248.70 (talk • contribs).
- Having done some investigation, the {{Spoken Wikipedia}} template, which that section includes, was vandalized recently, but it has since been reverted and protected. You may need to purge your browser cache if you're still seeing it. — TKD::Talk 20:23, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Vandalism!!!!!!!!!1
Someone is posting a picture of a vulva on the site. Clearly this is vandalism!!!!!!!! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.236.89.238 (talk) 20:52, 10 December 2006 (UTC).
Yeah, there was a picture of a vulva when I visited the page just now as well. Makes it rather hard to read the article.
[edit] Japanese name
This article has "Solid Snake" written in Japanese, but any interview I've seen with Kojima or an Konami staff has them reffering to him as Snake (albeit "Snake-a") not Sorrido Suneku. Can anyone confirm this Japanese name?
†he Bread 07:58, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
- The "Japanese name" is how the katakana used to spell his name is romanized in the literal sense. It is a close approximation of how Japanese speakers would say those English words. -SaturnYoshi THE VOICES 08:06, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

- Ahh I see, Sorrido does sound like Solid when said with a Japanese accent, same for Suneku, sounds like Snake. Thanks for clearing that up, 'twas bothering me for a while

[edit] More vandalism??
What is up with this part??
"Kojima has told a story in several interviews about riding the train home and running into one of the staffers working on Snake's Revenge, and being asked to rejoin them and help make an authentic sequel to Metal Gear.[2][1] Upon agreeing to this, the game they produced was Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake. Metal Gear 2, initially released only in Japan for the SEX2, follows after the original Metal Gear rather than Snake's Constipation; indeed, all later games ignore the events of Snake's Revenge, relegating it to non-canon status.[3]
Metal Gear 2 sees Solid Snake once again called up to impregnates a heavily-fortified enemy , this time in Zanzibar Land. Zanzibar Land has aggravated an international oil crisis and declared themselves a nuclear power by kidnapping Dr. Kio Marv, the creator of the formula to OILIX (a bio-engineered algae that produces an oil substitute), and Dr. Pettrovich Madnar, the inventor of the Metal Gear. Snake infiltrates the base and retrieves Dr. Marv's OILIX formula (albeit not Marv himself, who is tortured to death). However, he discovers that Pettrovich and his former comrade Gray Fox have defected to Zanzibar Land, and that Zanzibar Land is led by none other than Big Butt. Snake screws the new Metal Gear D, confronts and kills Gay Fox in a dance fight in the middle of a soccer field during a championship game, then kills Big Butt with a makeshift gaythrower in a final dysenterial infection."
This is obviosuly not up to wiki standards, I will change this, if anybody doesnt like my wording, please comment here...
Never Mind... its been fixed Thanks!!
I found another sign of vandalism, the japanese name for Solid Snake was spelled as Complettu Badassu. Black Dollar 19 February 2007
[edit] Um, wow. Jihadi?
Solid Snake from the upcoming Metal Gear Solid 4, here he is seen using the Octocamo camoflauge system as well as the M1911A1, hesitating to shoot a fleeing jihadi.
With very little of the plot revealed, plus with Kojima simply stating that Snake can choose between "Country A and Country B" we don't know if the middle eastern folk are "Jihadis." - 75.4.200.230 00:07, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] This article is terrible
Can someone please rewrite it. it is all wrong half the article is telling me about the games in the metal gear solid series the article is supposed to be about Solid Snake have a look at the Big Boss or Revolver Ocelot article they are excellent examples of great articles. 194.125.53.82 14:07, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
They're excellent examples of bad articles. Ocelot's redeming feature is that it's at least got real world content, Big Boss is just bad. You're meant to write the article with minimal plot summary and focas on the real world

[edit] Snake vs. Gibson
In MG2, if going to call mode while smoking, the picture of Snake will show him smoking. Then it is even more similar to the one you have of Gibson, the position of the cigarrette is the same. So if you change it it would show even better the resemblance.

[edit] Abilities
In MDS:TTS Snake is clearly seen lifting Dr. Emmerich 4 feet above the ground. Can anyone add this to the article? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mac-10&Cheese (talk • contribs) 00:38, 5 April 2007 (UTC).
Actually that could just be the fact that Snake is really strong, I don't see any real reason to add this to the article, unless I'm reading it wrong?DarkAvenger280 06:07, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
If we take Twin snakes as canon, then we can also add these to the list of abilities: Being able to delay is own unconsiousness, being capable of trowing a hand grenade ALL THE WAY trough a tank`s cannon from at least 15 feet, and the very useful ability of stare at a rifle`s beam for like ten seconds without realizing what was it. I`m being sarcastic. Zidane tribal 06:30, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
