MGS3 plot doubts

Post by Gin-Ryu »

I've finished the game yesterday and well my rank was a complete disaster but mainly because I liked shoting the poor guards (thank God for the shotgun) but I have some questions about the story
Did the Boss knew that Ocelot was her child? (I think she did but anyway)
And what about the scar she has it just seems too big don't you think?
And finnaly about the <B>Patriots</B>.
In MGS2 I got the idea they were some kind of A.I. that "evolved" (like in Ghost in the Shell) but now I think they were created by someone.

We had a pretty good discussion about the ending in this thread after the U.S. version came out viewtopic.php?t=141 if you want to continue it.

It seems to me that the <B>Patriots</B> weren't really AI, but people that created the GW computers which were AI.

I think the scar looks about right for a battlefield c-section. I'm sure it's a little bit more... um... unorthodox then one done in a hospital :).

I'm pretty sure the Boss new that Ocelot was her son, but I'm also pretty sure that he did not know she was his mother.

I don't know I mean it's a really big scar it's all over her chest she should have died from the blood loss.
One more thing what kind of flowers were those in the last fight?

And what's up with that Snake coming out of her body at the end? Crazy.
Thank God for the rain to wash the trash off the sidewalk...

I think the flowers at the end were Daffodils.

Visual metaphors.
I think it's supposed to represent the fact that Snake is now leaving the Boss.
