Two things I don't like based on appearance, and love based on uniqueness: the prosthetic arm and that horrid looking "crystal" protruding out of Snake's head.

Can anyone speculate as to why Snake has a prosthetic arm (which I think shouldn't be red) and a black "crystal" protruding out of his head?

Also, I'm guessing Snake killing all of those innocent Africans was one of the taboos Kojima was referring to; by the way, that scene didn't make a lot of sense either... but then again, it is MGS.
