  Thoughts on the newly released Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots Trailer

  By far the best trailer released this year at E3 was obviously MGS4. The trailer brought in some light on the plot, Snake is obviously on a mission to eliminate Liquid Snake. But lets get passed the obvious. It seems the story is set in 2014, which would make it five years after the events of Solid Snakes last debut which was Metal Gear Solid 2 and it takes place 9 years after Solid Snake was injected with FOXDIE at Shadow Moses Island. So a lot of you may ask, why does Solid Snake appear to look so old? it is due to faulty cloning which has sped up his aging process by around20 years. This leaves Snake roughly around 5-6 months to live (at the least). Another big part of the plot is the increase of mercenaries across foreign land used to fight battles for business purposes called PMC's (Private Military Companies). It also appears that the five largest PMC's are owned by a single company called Outer Heaven, which non coincidently is the name of Big Boss's mercenary company and nation in the original Metal Gear game. The company is operated by Liquid Ocelot, which if you can't remember is the merging of Liquids arm on Ocelots body to ultimately bring back Liquid Snake through Revolver Ocelot as the host. As seen in the trailer, Liquid Snake seems to posses the technological power to control nanomachines, which activated the sudden outburst of pain to the mercenaries (as seen in the newly released trailer.)Liquid now has the military equivalent in manpower compared to the United Sates and they are planning to launch an armed insurrection. (insurrection, is an armed uprising, or revolt against an established civil or political authority. Persons engaging in insurgency are called insurgents, and typically engage in regular or guerrilla combat against the armed forces of the established regime, or conduct sabotage and harassment in the land in order to undermine the government's position as leader.) Then that brings us to our trailer where we see Solid Snake who is deployed by none other than Roy Campbell (not officially sanctioned by neither the UN nor the United States as heard in the trailer) to eliminate Liquid Ocelot.

  The following locations have been confirmed to take place in the game:

  The Middle East

  South America

  Eastern Europe

  it is also apparent that Meryl Silverberg (as seen in MGS1 and MGS Twin Snakes) is leading the new FOXHOUND unites into the battle to aid Snake on his mission.

  So this is what we have learned from the new trailer,

  Liquid is attempting to control the soldiers using a type of nano-virus known as FOXDIE,

  Snake is on a mission to eliminate Liquid Ocelot by an unknown party,

  Meryl is now leading FOXHOUND,

  Raiden is immortal????

  If you have any questions or new information that I may not know please feel free to comment this blog entry.

  This list is in no particular order...
