How Powerful is Solid Snake? | Metal Gear Solid [OLD]

This might be a change of pace from my typical video, but I wanted to test myself by doing a video on how powerful Solid Snake is. As you might have gathered from my last video, MGS is one of my favorite series' and Snake is certainly one of my favorite characters.

Metal Gear is a series of action-adventure stealth video games created by Hideo Kojima and developed and published by Konami. The first game, Metal Gear, was released in 1987 for MSX home computers. The player often takes control of a special forces operative (usually Solid Snake or Big Boss), who is assigned the task of finding the titular superweapon "Metal Gear", a bipedal walking tank with the ability to launch nuclear weapons.
Several sequels have been released for multiple consoles, which have expanded the original game's plot, adding characters opposing and supporting Snake, while there have also been a few prequels exploring the origins of Metal Gear and recurring characters. The third game in the series, Metal Gear Solid for the PlayStation, marked the beginning of a whole new line of 3D for Metal Gear. As of March 2018, over 53.8 million copies of games in the franchise have been sold worldwide, with individual installments critically and commercially acclaimed and receiving several awards.
The series is credited for pioneering and popularizing stealth video games and "cinematic video games". Notable traits of the series include stealth mechanics, cinematic cutscenes, intricate storylines, offbeat and fourth wall humour, and exploration of cyberpunk, dystopian, political and philosophical themes, with references to Hollywood films to add flavor. The franchise has also been adapted into other media, such as comics, novels, and drama CDs. Solid Snake also appeared as a guest character in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

[@patrick22014]

@@GeneFOX70 Yeah, but I was talking about his behaviour. He goes all out and doesn´t fuck around while Solid still has insane super human abilities he likes to act silent without being noticed and leaving traces. So i imagine Solid in Raccon City taking care of the zombies one by one maybe just neutralizing them not using lethal weapons and trying to find out what caused all of that mess and using grenades and missiles only when facing the bosses or major threats. I don´t think he would break a sweat until he faces Wesker or a high level threat like Nemesis while Solidus would simply obliterate all the zombies with his gun, throw some grenades with his tentacles to get rid of the hordes of zombies, use his super human strenght and speed to easily eliminate Mr X and Nemesis and would let Wesker use all of his power until he decides to with him in half.

Cool vid dude. I always thought tho that some of those feats of Snake were strictly for gameplay rather than his actual strength. Like Big Boss withholding a metal gear from pounding on him in PW. Keep these vids going son! They're fun to watch.

[@CRISIS_COMICS]

It's not just gameplay, It has scripted dialogue associated with it. And that is by far not Snake's best feat.

[@smith549371]

Yeah they are strictly gameplay, the best attribute that snake has is that he's just a soldier and there's nothing superhuman about him. MGS1 is the true representation of him, the latter games went a bit far with the fantasy for gameplays sake. He was just a clone of the greatest soldier ever, though with the recessive genes but through nurturing, immense training, combat experience and sheer dedication and will power with his conviction of doing the right thing and being the only hope, he was capable of besting his superior clone who was left to be moulded by harsh nature. Snake was just a great man, not a superhero. He was an underdog that overcame all of the obstacles that he came up against despite the odds. Thats the best thing about him and no matter what he accomplished he never saw himself as a hero, these feats just needed to be done for the good of the world and he was there, he had to do it.

[@imjustemerald1684]

You can scale off of another character without having the same genes.

[@NeedlesKain]

@@CRISIS_COMICS I'm saying that an undeniable comparison can be made between Big Boss and Solid because their genes are congruent (the recessive ones at least) so their abilities as a result of that by itself will be the same. I'm thinking this same building point can't be made between Solid and Vemom. I don't know too much about MGSV though, so that's why I said I could be wrong. I do however think that a comparison can be made in the sense of "Venom can't do this but Solid can do this" just not in the terms of Big Boss and Solid which would be "Venom can do this so Solid can inherently do this as well."

@@CRISIS_COMICS listen "mr-accept-that", some things are clearly meant as a joke. We're one step away of debating if Snake has to actually change a CD to keep on at Shadow Moses. Kojima himself talked about the genetic nonsense being his fault for not having proper knowledge. Same thing happened again with physics: a stomp from a MG to a human body would be like a hammer and a nail. If the body can withstand it, the person would simply get nailed into the ground. So not really trusty points of reference there. And well, there's also the pretty blatant point we're told at face value about not being about what you are but what you do with it that defines you. I'll even go ahead and say that they where trying to say something with Solid Snake having the (on Kojima's mind) "bad" genes.

@@taliawtf6944 Someone in their 60s can never be stronger than in their 30s? The MGSV guidebook states Big Boss was at his strongest in the MSX era.

[@taliawtf6944]

@@CRISIS_COMICS The likely hood of him being better than in his 30s is low but it's not like those two are exactly normal either. Experience wise he certainly would be better but physically speaking he would have slowed abit. But again normal is out of the window with those two.

[@CRISIS_COMICS]

@@taliawtf6944 Yeah, they definitely don't follow conventional logic to a tee. From Peace Walker on Big Boss wanted to always grow stronger per the MGSV game guide.

17:20 the boktai solar gun by hideo kojima also growing up playing metal gear inspired me to train in karate as a kid and then judo later on with a private teacher! Being in chicago suburbs and in rough areas I actually would hand bullys their own asses on a platter in the form of my shoe or fist haha if you get my drift ;) so goes without saying hideo kojima knows his stuff... Kojima and David hayter created someone that was always a here to me even if in a video game everything he was doing I felt like I was right there with him and i’m sure you all felt the same!! Anyways today now I am a bodybuilder and still play the old metal gears i love like 1/ 2/3 or 4 and have saves where I can replay moments I love! The 1911 is also my favorite pistol.. from Metal gear solid 3/4 shooting it in real life was something i always wanted to shoot and own and its a piece of history that is perfect in every way! Love the video great job man!

The best thing ever made film, game, series, book. Nothing i mean nothing beats Metal Gear.

[@Sgt-Wolf]

So what you are saying is there is no media to surpass metal gear?

[@truthspillaz2]

@@Sgt-Wolf in my opinion yes and i have viewed many trilogies read many series of books and played a lot of games and nothing beats Metal Gear Franchise its just excellent from start to finish. The details, the fusion of real world politics with fiction and also the weapons the metal Gears, the characters, the snakes n how they are all linked. I mean its just brilliant. I have played every one besides portable ops n one day i will.

[@rapidraptor6406]

Does anyone know where the animations depicting metal gear events come from?

[@nova_supreme8390]

I would not be so sure about Naked Snake surpassing Boss in CQC. I think Boss deliberately let Snake win as she left her protective sneaksuit open to make herself more vulnerable. She knew Snake was going to win as it was part of her role in preventing potential escalation of the cold war. Boss defecting was a ruse and she knew she was going to die in the end. She sacrificed herself to save the world.

[@CRISIS_COMICS]

You think, or you can prove it? I don't really find head canon compelling. And just because she knew she had to die doesn't mean she wouldn't fight Snake with her all to ensure that he was well enough equipped to pick up her baton as the foremost solider.
