Anyone else here played Metal Gear Solid?
Occurred to me that Meryl - with a significant role in MGS4 - is a bit like

and very much like
http://metalgear.wikia.com/wiki/Meryl_Silverburgh
Anyone expert in the admittedly substantial MGS concordance?

You're right! I checked the link and even her CGI model is similar to VvsV

Had

reached Japan back by the mid-90s?
Hideo Kojima is an über-OCD case. He'd remember her ...

Hmmm... I just noticed that the Policenauts version is not so similar to

as the Metal gear Solid version. Maybe Hideo Kojima found her attitude similar to "that character from that western toyline" and redesigned her according to that?

She does have a resemblance to Quarrel and Scarlett I agree.

I think character too. Though by MGS4 she's more like :snakeeyes: 's older sister. Yeah, the main character is called 'Snake'.

Get the rest and get a PS3, worth it, esp. now as the latest slimline version is more robust.
Some of the meta-narrative offshoots to PSP and Nintendo, haven't played those yet. Maybe in my next life.
