I'm kinda' disappointed that they forgot about this little detail.

Solid Snake is blonde, just like Liquid, but in The Twin Snake's Briefing feature, Snake's hair is already dark.

Anyway, here's something that'll prove that he's really supposed to be blonde.

Campbell said that the only difference betweed Solid Snake and Liquid is their skintone. He didn't mention anything about the hair. He also used that same line in the original MGS.

No, if you had watched after the credits you would have known that Liquid was made to believe that he was the twin with the recessive genes when actually he was the one with the Dominant genes which makes Solid Snake's dark hair a recessive trait, which means that he could never be blond and the odd hair color in the briefing scene was most likely caused by the fluorescent lighting in the medical room he was in while getting the shots for the mission and in addition to that the tape they used to record the briefing you can clearly see that is in black and white, so the reason that his hair looks blond is due to the effect that the lighting had on his hair and the black and white camera pick it up as a bright color making it look like it was blond, see there always a rational explanation for every thing in the MGS world.

If u look closley at snakes hair during the cut scenes u will see faint high lites of blonde like he just quickly dyed his hair and missed bits and pieces of his hair. he probably did dye his hair before the briefing probably at his house. or w/e.
I always considered it to be grey. Furthermore, to the person saying that Snake is the recessive one, blah blah blah, the science isn't realistic at all, it's a well known fact that dark hair is dominant to blonde hair, so on that basis you can't use the science in this game to answer the question at hand.

Well, in Metal Gear for Nintendo, snake had brown hair, and in MG2: solid snake, he had brown hair. So why did they make it blonde in Metal Gear for Playstation? I think they just change things to their liking sometimes, contradicting past events.
Have you played MGS on the PS? He has brown hair in the game. Snake has NEVER been blonde even in the original MG games. Even his collectable figures give him dark brown hair. Solid Snake & Naked Snake had BROWN hair, end of this thread. Someone close this thread please.

Never played the 2nd MGS game not sure but could the old man in the pic in the pages before not be Big Boss but actually Liquid Snake? No need to be harsh?

Anyways there are alot of sudden changes in games, movies that the audience just expect to ignore. Just let this one passed because I'm pretty sure, Solid Snake is now really intended to have dark hair. if you look at all the conceptional drawings, I think the mission brief from the original MGS wasnt really released. Just mostly what he looks like from Shadow Moses.
that was a year ago when i posted that ^^^^^^

yup.. me and you Jaycee were part of the beginning of this thread a year ago......... i say just let it be..

a continuity error.. nothing more..... no need to argue about the DNA facts or what brand did Solid Snake used to dye hair.. this is my last response on this thread........ just let it die.... no need to continue pointless debate that has been going on for a year on this forum...

It's just a continuity error. It's that simple. Arguing about it is useless.

As great as the MGS story as a whole is, it still has its share of holes and inconsistencies.

I know that Snake is not Solid Snake in MGS3, its big boss, im saying everyone is arguing that Solid is blonde well I think he dyed his hair to not look like Liquid, thats why he has blonde streaks in his hair, because he probably was blonde himself, and before he went in to Shadow Moses, he cut and dyed his hair to not look like Liquid, but that's just my opinion.

Jun 14, 05 06:59PMmaisto


Keep in mind that Snake is not Solid Snake in MGS3

Jun 11, 05 09:16PMSecto


Did any of you notice when you play MGS 3 and get a good look at Snakes hair its all brown, if you play TTS or Substance and get a good look at Snakes hair it's brown with blonde streaks.
