I never said this was the first time something controversial was encountered in MGS. I was merely observing that it was incredibly smart to build up Big Boss as a legendary hero in the other games, and then shatter that facade in this one.

And children dying in games itself isn't new or controversial. But the idea of a man just gunning down children is the controversial issue.
