Having been quite disappointed at what 'Revengence' has turned out like, I am super excited about this!

Gotta disagree with you there, though, I know I'm in the minority. Revengeance looks amazing. If you're familiar with Platinum Game's history, you shouldn't have any doubts as to its awesomeness (assuming you like incredibly solid 3rd person action hack n' slash type games). Letting Platinum Games run around in the MGS universe is a win in my book.

Hm? That appears to be "Naked Snake," not Solid. Unless that eyepatch is a prototype for the MGS4 one.
Also, anyone think they have an idea as to who Dr. Baldhead is?
1
I read online it could be Volgin? or even The Fury from MGS3. Volgin already had a fucked up face, but this dude looks like a burn victim.
3
Yeah, I'd go with Volgin. He was struck by lightning and subsequent ammunition explosions, which more than explains that level of damage. Makes sense he'd be fine working with Zero after his shift to a more extreme ideology.
Kojima's a trickster, though. It could be Hot Coldman or Zadornov, somehow...
Kind of a bummer to see Chico jacked up and caged like that. He might have been a bit annoying, but damn. It would make sense that the fedora guy would have Chico betray Paz, but going a bit darker, he could also be talking about Amanda (edit: or Strangelove!) As always, their little teasers stay ambiguous to mess with the fans...
I wonder if Raiden is a genetically-modified Chico the way Solid Snake is a genetically-modified boss?

Volgin was/is much taller and bulkier than this baldie. I'd go with somebody from Peace Walker
2
Bulk could have atrophied away. Ground Zeroes looks like it will be set mid-1980s. I'd guess 1984, since Snake Eater was '64 and Peace Walker was '74.
20 years of surgeries to repair burn damage could make for a very messed-up Volgin. Maybe his legs had to be partially amputated, or he's rocking a cyborg body under that coat.
Still, the lack of height does raise a lot of questions. As does Chico having a stereo jack in his chest. Also, if it's the 80s, Frank Jaeger should be hanging around MSF.

but volgin was a big guy, I don't think this guy is much bigger than anyone else around him.
1
There's a theory that it might be Decoy Octopus.
1
Octopus wasn't injured, like that, though. At least, it didn't seem like it. From what little you see of him in MGS, he just had very flat facial features, allegedly filed down so he could apply more accurate facial prosthetics.
I think the reverse would be more interesting, as in, "was Decoy Octopus a character from Snake Eater, Portable Ops or Peace Walker?"
1
volgin was very tall and burly, this guy doesn't look like him at all
1
What about Gene?
1
Ground Zeroes takes place after Peace Walker, which takes place forever before MGS4. It's a regular eye patch...
3
Yeah. This is Big Boss. Not Solid.
2
Having only played MGS4 I have no idea what any of that actually meant, but I'm excited regardless.
1
go play the other ones!
4
Wait, how the hell did you play MGS4 and have an idea what was going on? What are you waiting for buy the collection edition and play them! Then play Peace Walker, you wont be disappointed.
2
Peace Walker pretty much covers everything shown in the Ground Zeroes teaser, since it also recaps Snake Eater. If you wanted a quick catch-up, that'd be the way to go.

That's fake, because there's no way anyone use a font like that for a MGS trailer.

I agree, it looks like a boss game.
It looks totally metal.
Raiden.
