Fun fact about Liquid and Game Overs, if you die in the Liquid Ocelot fight at the end of MGS4 and select Exit, Liquid Ocelot says, something along the lines of "Not yet, it's not over yet" and your cursor will move to the continue option on its own but you can still Exit if you want.
Glad to know that I wasn't the only person who instantly thought of that site when confronted with a six-digit number. I actually checked it out when he showed the whole iceberg at the start of the video. I only gave it a cursory glance, but it seemed fairly wholesome. Then again, I can't read Japanese
I like how after talking about MGS4’s depressing original ending the next thing is immediately “So Snake Vs. Monkey is a mini game crossover with Ape Escape.”
I have to disagree with Twin Snakes being Raiden’s VR training, I always headcanoned it as Otacon telling Sunny about Shadow Moses but adding his trademark otaku touch to some events. And yes, I was on /v/ in 2014, I know all about Kazuhira “Master Race for Mother Base” Miller and how the Virgin Huey got NTR’d by the Chad Hal.
The actual prequel to MGS2 is Ghost Babel: Not only is it kind of a similar experience to Shadow Moses but on more familiar ground (Outer Heaven), which would make sense for a simulation, but also when you complete the VR missions in GB, the game actually refers to you as Jack. (I forgot everything I learned in class but of course this random MGS conspiracy survives in my brain somehow).
Sundowner served in the Gulf War, and in the Metal Gear universe, many soldiers in the Gulf War were given Big Boss DNA and turned into genome soldiers. This might actually Sundowner's brutal effectiveness on the battlefield, since he may share some DNA with Big Boss
Top of the iceberg: Venom is the medic, it’s the Truth Bottom of the iceberg: Venom is actually Big Boss, you can’t trust anything even the “Truth” The Ocean Abyss: Venom is nobody, (not even Gray Fox) and MGSV doesn’t take place in the year 1984 but in a VR simulation in September 2015, nothing is true
finally one of these videos for a franchise I'm actually interested in! I love the concept and format but had a hard time finding one that contained content i was interested in paying attention to lol. My deeper interest in the Metal Gear franchise is quite recent by Metal Gear fan standards, so despite your closing statement, i found most of this information to be quite fresh and interesting actually, at least to me! Very well done!
Kazuhira “There will be no other race on my motherbase” Miller Kaz ”If they're black send them back” Miller Kazuhira “If you speak Kikongo, I’m going to beat your head like a bongo” Miller
Funny, when Codetalker said "Eyes on Kazuhira" I totally understood what he meant cause "I got my eyes on you" is a turn of phrase in my family when someones earned some suspiscion
Loved this video Meti. As a long time MGS fan, I was surprised both by how much stuff in the iceberg I already knew but also how much I never heard of. Wouldn't mind if you wanna make more Iceberg videos in the future.
I remember the thread on /v/ where it was claimed for the first time that Kaz was going to be vehemently racist in TPP, hence the game's theme of "race and revenge". Obviously it was a bunch of bullshit that no one took seriously, but considering where it was posted first, people made a concerning amount of memes out of it.
Seeing this video in my notifications, I knew this was going to be a good one due to how much research you put into your other videos, wasn’t disappointed on that front! I hope you do more iceberg videos (maybe one on a certain manga series youre known for)
I also, wishfully, took “never be game over” to being Kojima possibly knowing his relationship with Konami was souring and future MGS games would be in doubt but that he’d eventually return to making new MGS games in the future. We can only hope.
So the "eyes on kazuhira" thing is because in ground zeroes, it's still MGSV not mgs 5, and as such it's a similar thing to the twin snakes, in that it is venom re living the mission where big boss was incapacitated. We can tell because of how the missions are shown to the player (the surrogate for venom), photographs, and short descriptions of the mission objective, ocelot reveals in TPP that this is how he induced hypnogogiac memories into venom, we can also tell that kaz isnt talking to snake because how he talks about paz, "how could we have ever bought that cover story, a student of peace?" When kaz literaly told snake at the end of peace Walker he knew about paz being a double agent the whole time. We can also hear kaz talking on the mgsv ground zeroes tapes of skullface interacting with paz and chico. Pyhtonselkianhd has a good video about this on his channel
I decided to play Metal Gear Rising last year while recovering from Covid after seeing some character analysis on Senator Armstrong. Which got me to thinking "I bet there's a hidden meaning in this game," and so I documented my, uh, oxygen deprived ramblings, live, into a journal. Which ended up being over 150 pages. When shared with the Metal Gear Reddit, I was greeted by a few downvotes and a comment of "cringe" [sic, co capitalization nor ending mark] And while I would like to share this idea with others in some way, currently a bit too nervous to try without trying to talk it over with at least one other person, first.
same, its such a meme game to everybody that nobody takes me seriously when i try to get into any kind of detailed conversation about it. theyre just like "lol its not that deep just enjoy the memes" but like. its a metal gear game. its ALWAYS that deep

Bottom of another iceberg. Some others I was hoping: MGS5 being based around The Boss The graphic novels of MGS1 and 2 that are of questionable quality David Hayter in MGSV Decoy Octopus coming back in MGSV Solid Snake's hair color Skullface being known as Albatross Theres also the Ocelot is Miller meme but I think everyone forgot about it
51 was cut along with okb zero assault being toned down to just you because it required you to be fighting through along with your fultoned troops you'd acquired. Xbox 360 and ps3 couldn't handle it. Konami didn't want to leave any sales on the table, so the ps3, ps4, xbox360, xbox one versions all had to have feature parity.
This is a great video, I love watching these kind of deep dives. One correction I'd like to make tho regards the MGS theme conspiracy. First of all, the song was originally used in MGS1, tho it is much more prominent in 2 and 3. Secondly, while the song was never used in any new games after MGS3, it WAS kept in every rerelease. You can hear it both in the HD collection in MGS2 and 3 as well as Snake Eater 3D, which might have been the last time the song was ever officially released in some form.
i usually headcannon that raiden's VR mission was MGS3 since... -you can start with raiden mask on -the overall convenience of said mask when you need to impersonate raikov -snake mishearing "virtuous mission" as "virtual mission" -MGS3 being the only game where BB is ever referred to as jack (subsequent usually call him john when referring to his real name) ...twin snakes works as otacon's recollection of MGS1's events imo.
I still have no idea what these iceberg videos are all about, they sound dumb and ridiculous if they have any similarities to the ones i HAVE seen many years ago, like how some cartoons and games are "actually" about some "dark and depressing" theme. Guess i'll see since you did this video. But your content is always enjoyable so i have no reason to complain ((Also i absolutely love the Metal Gear series so that's another reason why i'm watching this)) Oh wow, now that i watched the vid this is way different from what i expected, great way to give info about the whole series in a single video, keep the amazing work and cheers from Brazil ;)
Same, i honestly think amanda and chico were just removed from the pp plot because ppl fan theorized too fast that chico was quiet and kojipro feared to be cancelled by portraying a trans like that, it made sense too with what kojima said about ppl regretting what they said about quiet etc
According to the rumor, the original MGS4 Main Theme was recorded and changed for fear of a lawsuit, the entry should be about the unreleased original MGS4 main theme (I know you didnt write the iceberg :p), anyway excellent video
Naked Snake's Nightmare: In MGS3, after the torture scene, Naked Snake is in a jail cell. If you save, leave and return to the game you have a chance of being welcomed back by a hack and slash game called Guy Savage.
that list is too casual for real veterans of the franchise i was expecting something else like the connections between the NES game and MGSV, the super metal gear rumour on the SNES, the metal gear D in phantom pain, more references to the MSX games, metal gear zero, samus and snake, etc.
I literally made a mgs iceberg that had some of the things you listed and the things on this ice berg. Tho I can’t believe I forgot metal gear solid mobile
a few things worth adding include the guy who did all the motion capture for MGS2 went to jail for illegal weapon smuggling, the Metal Gear Solid mode in Ape Escape 3 which may include the final time they got to use the MGS theme, Kojima used Lego to stage out level layouts for MGS1, the hidden teaser image of Metal Gear ray for 100% completing MGS: the VR missions, during the E3 reveal of MGS3 Kojima tried to trick game journalists into thinking snake traveled back in time but a (not very well) hidden message in the booth pamphlets spelled out BIGBOSS, and the weapons of MGS1 were chosen purely because of how blocky they looked.
No Z.o.E. On the iceberg? Like the one time people paid for the demo of MGS2 and Konami gave the a full game for free on PS2 (good times, that game was okayish… got pretty repetitive after a while and the main character was pretty irritating. The sequel was MUCH MUCH better). Or how Hal’s wallpaper on his computer in MGS4 is the title screen for Z.o.E. 2: the second runner. Ir how you find models of Orbital Frames throughout MGS4. Or how MGS3 the guy who’s designing metal gear has model kits of orbital frames in his office (NEEEEEEEERD!!!). Or how Bahram Battle ship music can be played on snakes iPod in MGS4 along with other songs from the Z.o.E. Series. Or the (correct me if I’m wrong here) allusions in Revengence that Z.o.E. Might be canon with the Metal gear series and it just takes place in the far future.
A youtuber who was by the name "mega destroy bastard" had the best mgs videos. Theory crafting and whatnot. I wish you could find his old videos. I think you would have enjoyed them.
Does anyone else remember the skateboarding minigame in Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance where you could skate around around the big shell? Or was that some kind of fever dream I had?
Twin Snakes being a VR simulation is because there is a lil VR target on the REX hangar in that game. Metal Gear Acod are two games for the PSP. Id also add that the MGS game for the Game Boy color could also be a prequel to MGS2 because of the end credits mentioning Jack.
Fun fact about Liquid and Game Overs, if you die in the Liquid Ocelot fight at the end of MGS4 and select Exit, Liquid Ocelot says, something along the lines of "Not yet, it's not over yet" and your cursor will move to the continue option on its own but you can still Exit if you want.

Ir how you find models of Orbital Frames throughout MGS4.
Or how MGS3 the guy who’s designing metal gear has model kits of orbital frames in his office (NEEEEEEEERD!!!).
Or how Bahram Battle ship music can be played on snakes iPod in MGS4 along with other songs from the Z.o.E. Series.
Or the (correct me if I’m wrong here) allusions in Revengence that Z.o.E. Might be canon with the Metal gear series and it just takes place in the far future.
METI. You watch chip cheezum too!? I understood that reference at the end!
RIP Mission J Frog
I was just giving Donkey Kong an ass-whooping as Snake in Ultimate when you brought up the subject about his inclusion in Smash
A youtuber who was by the name "mega destroy bastard" had the best mgs videos. Theory crafting and whatnot. I wish you could find his old videos. I think you would have enjoyed them.
You forget:
>MG2 Zanzibarland is Post-MGS3 Groznyj Grad
>MGS3 is a VR training mission
>Lisa (P.T.) is Quiet
I love iceberg videos
Maybe you weren’t the bad guy all along but I’m not convinced you’re the good guy either
Any and everyone to Ocelot
Does anyone else remember the skateboarding minigame in Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance where you could skate around around the big shell? Or was that some kind of fever dream I had?
I member.
I always wondered why they had Kojima listed as God in the credits lol
Twin Snakes being a VR simulation is because there is a lil VR target on the REX hangar in that game.
Metal Gear Acod are two games for the PSP.
Id also add that the MGS game for the Game Boy color could also be a prequel to MGS2 because of the end credits mentioning Jack.
Twin Snakes isn't Raiden's VR Training or Otacon's retelling of Shadow Moses

Some needs to make a video about your modifications to the iceburg. That one is much cooler than the iceburg in this video.
