wait....whats this?OFFICIAL TIMELINE?!?! okay,scratch that,

metal gear has more canon timeline problems than ANYTHING! Not to be picky, but that's just wrong. The Zelda titles all feature different incarnations of Link and the timeline is somewhat impossible to establish when the developer releases a game stating it comes after another game and then releasing a game in direct contradiction of that, saying it came before it.

That's never happened in Metal Gear. The only things that have been changed are story details, retconning previous information. The timeline is fine.
