I though that was clever  But I enjoy dissecting Kojima's stuff so perhaps it is I that is the crazy one with bad taste.

In short, to sum up the ludicrous batshit that was MGS2's ending: the S3 Plan was a small-scale testbed of the Patriot AI's information-control systems. It was designed to see if you could engineer a person to behave exactly as expected simply by manipulating the information they received. It utilized a recreation of the events at Shadow Moses Island in MGS1 as the basis for the scenario, reasoning that if their information-control tech could reliably manipulate someone to behave in the predicted fashion while under actual physical threat, then the system was functionally foolproof and could be trusted to be rolled out en-masse. This became the technological basis for the SOP system of nanomachine information control in MGS4.

They were also trying to see if they could mass-produce Snakes, since Snake is basically the perfect supersoldier there were a few factions that really wanted to know if they could make more.

Yeah, that was also part of what SOP was going for, which is why Meryl's squad all have superhuman reflexes. The way they eventually made 'armies of Solid Snake' turns out to just be 'suppress pain reaction and jack up their adrenaline levels.'

He was wrong, one way that an illusion can interact with real by being run by a real person or by a very good computer, thats what we call VR.

I'd just love a new Acid game in general, there's a huge pool of new stuff to make crazy awesome cards about, and maybe the card cut scenes could have sound, hearing all the Metal Gear characters ham it up when you use their cards would be great. And Speedball definitely has what it takes to wright a Metal Gear game, so where do I sign up for this? Is there a petition, or do I just have to keep throwing money at my screen?

EXTRA CHAPTER: Cut Content: So a lot of the dialogue I cook up on the spot, but other times I prepare jokes in advance. Some of it just plain doesn’t fit, isn’t funny enough to include, or runs too long, though, so I cut it out. These are some of these lines. This isn’t my A-material here, folks, it was cut for a reason. Had I had the opportunity to mention I had more donated military soldiers, the Leader of the Saints in Steelport might have had this to say:  Okay, Big Boy, here’s another soldier for ya! Thanks! …hey, wait a minute, weren’t you a man before? Yeah, I get sick of being a guy all the time, so I change it up. What are you, a shapeshifter or something? …or something. I could use someone like that on my team! Your code name could be, like…Decoy Octopus or something. Are you sure you don’t want to be on my payroll? Nah. For some reason, no matter what I look like, the moment I open my mouth people know it’s me. I didn’t fool you for a second, right? Oh, yeah, that’s right… that’s weird. I could be an albino goth girl with a Russian accent one day and an overweight bald wrestler the next and nobody would blink. I’m like fuckin’ Leonard Nimoy. Everyone always knows it’s me. That’s because you can’t act for poo poo! Hey! Sorry, gotta side with my trooper here. I’ve seen your movie, it’s worse than the crap Para-Medic made me watch.… Moving on! This next scene would have been to explain what Amanda, Chico and Cecile were up to when missing for almost the entire second scenario. So, you guys were trapped all that time by Babylon? No. We were fighting off Queen Isabella of Spain. What? Yeah! She and a bunch of Spanish Conquistadors washed up on shore and thought they were in the New World, so they started doing what Conquistadors do best… Conquering, robbing, looking for crap like the Fountain of Youth and El Dorado? Pft. Good luck with that, guys… Actually, those beliefs may have been rather well-founded. They found them both! What?! Where!? Don’t get your hopes up. They’re death traps. There was something in El Dorado that turned everything near it to gold…everything. Including the people. It’s pretty, but far too dangerous. Half of the Spanish became statues. Huh. Well what about the Fountain? I’d like to get a little of this grey out of my beard… Ugh. That thing. You don’t want it, it’s overpowered. …how overpowered? There’s no more Spanish, but the orphanage in Cusco is very overstocked. …are you messing with me? Heh. Nope. Just a drop is too much. Kind of a letdown, really. Crap. That’s like finding out aliens are real but they’re all morons.Kind of a roundabout way of making a joke about how the Fountain of Youth in Civ V is a very overpowered Natural Wonder (it gives you +10 Happiness and health regen, +20 for Spain). I always liked to say that Spain gets “double the silver from Cerro de Potosi, double the gold from El Dorado, and double the youth from the Fountain of Youth…uh-oh, that doesn’t sound like a good thing…” That and I like the idea of supernatural things being both real and a real disappointment. On that note: Snake, something happened to me last Thursday when I was riding my bicycle home. I had a couple of miles to go — I looked up and saw a glowing orange object in the sky, to the east! It was moving very irregularly. Suddenly, there was intense light all around me, and when I came to, I was home. What do you think happened to me? Oh, that’s easy. Bobcat got drunk and went on a joyride in the recovery helicopter, and he shot you down with a C.Gustav sleep gas shell with a Fulton balloon attached. That’s why you lost consciousness and had a flying sensation. Awww…are you sure I don’t have an alien implant in me? Maybe one that gives me superpowers? Pretty sure, little soldier. Sorry. Maybe next time!Just my shout-out to one of my more favorite goofy things from MGS2…Anyway, as you can see, none of these would have quite fit in the regular updates. But I had ‘em rolling around in my head all this while.

I never figured out how to use the Fulton shells. I'd probably be disappointed, anyway. Unless I could Fulton my way out of Tank catching missions, that is. That'd be good times.

 It's quite likely that a lot of the modern UFO stuff was at least partially spawned by experimental stealth fighter\bomber pilots buzzing people driving along highways at night by flying reaaal low and just silently floating over them. B-2 test pilots were especially prone to this and they supposedly had a running game for who could buzz the most poor innocent bastards (usually farmers).So yeah, a lot of those old UFO sightings? They were probably actually UFOs, except they were government\secret military UFOs not extraterrestrial ones.

That also explains all the stories of government agents trying to hush up UFO photos and stuff- they were paranoid kooks, but there also really were government agents trying to hush up UFO photos because they actually were test plane photos.

I prefer an alternate history where all witnesses are shot with Fulton Rockets but not recovered; they freak the gently caress out and then just sort of get bored and hungry.

Pretty much; there were indeed government agents trying to hush up UFO photos and whatnot but it wasn't because they were trying to hide evidence of aliens; it was because they were trying to hide evidence of humans.
