So, Solid Snake is the hero to Metal Gear? And Liquid Snake is not so much a hero?
In metal gear the hero was Grey Fox. Solid snake first appeared as a hero in metal gear: solid snake. The characters of otacon and meryl were introduced in metal gear solid (you'll have seen them in the traier) with snake as the hero. In metal gear solid 2 you played as raiden (who looks so much cooler for this game) with snake being a supporting character. Again you were snake in 3 but it was set in the past. Got that?
Liquid was introduced in metal gear solid. Both him and solid are clones of Big Boss (the bad guy from the 1st game). In metal gear solid a bad guy called revolver ocelot had his arm cut off and liquid gets killed. In metal gear solid 2 ocelot has had liquids arm grafted onto his body and it keeps controlling his mind. So the bad guy is now kind of liquid kind of ocelot.

was one of the down falls of MGS2 that and raiden did suck compared to "pliskin" although he has improved greatly for the 4th
Oh well you get to stick him in a locker knocked out in 3! Had Substance for about a week now and love it, wasn't sure about the concept at first but I was completley wrong, it's great!
