That aside, the plot - fake or not - makes a lot of sense, except for 2 places where long-time MGS fan can place an obvious question mark at.

(1) the Gray Fox bit borthers me. Leaving the issue of his age aside, unless Mantis brain-washed him, is he so absent minded of the person who saved him twice already before this point and needs to fight him a fourth time? Or maybe MPO will indeed become non-canon.

(2) I thought Naomi was just a child at the time and the Patriots didn't manage a break through in nano technology until she grew up and helped the research?

(3 and 4) (which is based on what is known from trailers rather than past games) on the one hand Code Talker is missing and on the other, Kaz is fallen to take revenge too is he not?

Otherwise, the "plot" outline is fine so far. After all, "yesterday's good is tomorrow's evil", or the other way around. It's just normal that Snake switch from sides to sides taking revenge on whosoever he dislikes at a particular time.

Any comments or thoughts?
 * Hideo stated not too long ago, Portable Ops is indeed canon, but he also stated he would be "fixing" some mistakes the writers made in said game such as Gray Fox's age, as he looks seventeen or eighteen maybe in PO and MG2 hinted he was in his late teens or early twenty's when he resued Naomi, meaning Fox was twice the age we originally figured. Either this means FOX is like Wolverine and just doesn't age physically or Hideo's gonna come up with some excuse as to how he was in the SHI with Gene and in TPP here looking roughly the same age.


 * Near the end of the false leak it's stated "David Pliskin" who is around thirteen at that point met Big Boss...as Zero had them meet. Yet it has been established for the longest time, they didn't meet until Solid was at least twenty when he joined FOXHOUND, so yeah if that was real, Hideo screwed that up royal.


 * Really the entire "leak" had fake written all over it before I even opened up the link, mainly from the fact that it's doubtful Hideo would let the entire plot of his "final" game be leaked out to the internet.
