Cool Snatcher reference in new MGS4 theatrical trailer!
Posted: Tue May 13, 2008 6:00 pm
Foreword: I posted this on another forum and just copy/pasted it here, I know you probably all know about Snatcher.
At about 1:16, it shows Snake in a dark brown trench coat, with a brown shirt and brown tie, and he changes his face to a younger version of himself with slicked back hair.
This, IMO, is an obvious reference to Kojima's second directed game, Snatcher. The game was released in 1989, after MG1. Several other Snatcher references are in MGS4 as well - most obviously, Metal Gear MKII, who is a character from Snatcher. Pretty cool reference for us Snatcher fans!
See for yourself, heres the new theatrical trailer:
