As for Eli....he needs to stop dropping hints and just flat out tell us, it's been one hint after another with both of Eli's appearances that point rather obviously to him being Liquid. Yeah, I agree. In fact, that's actually what got me irritated about this whole thing as well. Normally, if a character is supposed to be either related to or the same character as someone who appeared in a prior title, Kojima would flat out state it, especially when he did that in the Peace Walker announcement for TGS2009 regarding Kazuhira Miller and Huey as being the same guy as the person Snake contacted in MG2 and MGS (sort of regarding the last bit), and being related to Otacon, respectively.

Well, at least the promotional materials for Ground Zeroes didn't spoil Paz jumping out of the chopper and blowing herself up, so that's a good thing at least. Though admittedly, I'm not sure how Paz jumping out of a chopper and blowing up is as "controversial" as several of the magazines implied, especially when we've actually seen that bit happen before in Mega Man X: Command Mission's ending, and heck, it even happened in something that was very lighthearted, Secret Theater, when The Boss basically suicides herself after being accidentally caught in the hornet swarm, causing confusion among Naked Snake and even Volgin.
