I think this is a huge F-U! from Kojima to the fans who have been following the story's depth, giving us crappy fan-service, and sub-par explanations. I guess he just didn't care anymore, now I really wish MGS3 was his last. The ending was the real biggest low-blow to the original fans, ha. What a joke. Sweet jesus, this is worse than Resident Evil 4 or Devil May Cry 4,

I would hardly even call MGS4 canon.

R.I.P.

Metal Gear Solid Series

1987 - 2004
^is this a joke? Assuming it's not, I have to say I agree with the overwhelming majority of fan reactions that it tied up all of the loose ends perfectly and is one of the best games I've yet to play. I could not imagine a better ending myself, and the more I dwell on it, the better I realize the game is, definately one I'll still be playing years from now, as well as the rest of the MGS series.

But umm, what are some of the retcons you speak of? Because most of them are (SPOILER)dead characters turning out to actually be alive, which after MGS1, 2, and 3 has become business as usual
