Liquid Snake is a character in Metal Gear Solid. He's Solid Snake's twin brother and one of the antagonists in the series.

And both are clones of big boss?

Spoiler, but yes.

Granted, my answer was kind of spoilery too.

Well at least they're all fully clothed

Partially clothed

I thought one of them needed to breath through her skin or something and that's why she didn't wear pants?

Maybe I should play some of these games.

Yes, but what about Snake Plissken? Escape from New York (1981) is such a good action movie, and the literal inspiration for Solid Snake (1987, from the NES game "Metal Gear").

I still can't believe Hideo Kojima has been making games as long as I have been alive. That's just nuts!

[–] Quetzalcutlass@lemmy.world 10 points 13 hours ago

Solid Snake even uses Plisken as an alias in MGS2.

Ah yes, the Snakes of matter.

With moves so smooth; it is like he is frictionless.
